Sounds cool to me. I haven't used the new Star Wars system, but I can check it out and get the basics down. I love the idea of anything ES themed though, especially if there are actual mechanics to it. Consider me intrigued.
@SigilWell it's more about recreating the feel and the universe, not so much the mechanics. But yes, cardinal directions would be acceptable, along with combat consisting mostly of typing "again" repeatedly.

Not much interest though, unfortunately.

Rambling is more than common here; it's practically a requirement. Good to meet you, ADParis!
Howdy Melodia! I'm always in the mood for a fantasy rp, so if you decide to host one don't hesitate to tell me!
I get really annoyed when OOCs get swarmed with random chatter and it clutters things.


Depends on the context, Gowi summed it up well.

I also really hate it when people make dick characters that seem to be solely made for the sake of being a smart ass douche.


This we can definitely agree on. The nihilist-wannabe character who's too cool/dark to care about anything also applies.

In a world of magic, spells are power, and magicians rule the land.

Unfortunately, you aren't a magician. You aren't a great warrior, or a world-class thief. You're an adventurer, or a minor enchanter at best, someone clever and lucky enough to pilfer whatever dark cave or ancient empire strikes your fancy.

This roleplay is based off the world of the old text-adventure (and regular adventure) game series Zork -- a lighthearted world of traps and treasures, and the occasional epic quest. If you're unfamiliar with the games just remain calm, all you need to know is that this is a fantasy world where magic is dwindling; the age of heroes has passed, and the magicians of today will become the scientists of tomorrow, and in these last days of magic all sorts of rogues, noble and not-so-noble, are hoarding all the mystical artifacts and riches they can before the Age of Magic ends, and the Age of Science begins. You're one of them.

So the world is a simple one, the details easy to remember and quick to explain, but for now you only need to ask yourself one question: what's under that trap-door, and how much is it worth?

Ugh, that's especially bad when they seem to ignore everything else going around them. Newsflash people; no one wants to read a ten paragraph essay into your characters inner-turmoil if the entire thing could be boiled down to "I drive down the street", and that goes double when you seem to be writing a personal novel or something and not actually interacting with the other players.
Have you tried contacting Keyblade87? He expressed interest.
I must have missed where you said that, will do next time.
