Could Use Some Help

So, I'm putting together a Fullmetal Alchemist roleplay, that I could use a co-GM for, or at least someone to discuss things with and fact-check my speculation and such. First time GM'ing on this site, and I just want to get it right. So any help is appreciated.

About the first post; do we just make up missions, or is there like a mission board with a list of different ranking missions or something that I missed?

@Fancy Party

Let me know if you find anything. I've got roughly the same situation, although I have a smallish city nearby so I can uber there at least. I'm going to try a few social apps and see what happens.

@Archmage MC

Yeah, I live 2 or 3 miles away from a small town that's basically a gas station and some pawn shops and houses. The nearest city is about 45 minutes away. Though, I'm an hour or two away from 3 different airports. So the friends I do have I can go see when I have the money to travel.

Good luck though.

I should probably keep working on that. The good thing about doing a day-to-day-life bit on the ship is that it gives me more time to flesh out Ofromia. Some of my notes were scribbled when I was half asleep, and so require some time to decode. I'm sure there's a very good reason why there's a picture of a duck in a top hat with a monocle in there. Really makes me wonder about people who claim to be able to connect to past lives, when I seem to struggle to connect with me from a week ago.

@Hylozoist

I'm sure it was a very elegant and elaborate NPC, probably the mayor of Ofromia or something.

All good, I frankly prefer the internet friendships. But it would just be nice to have at least one local friend. Either way, it'll happen eventually I suppose.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to the stories to come from aboard the ship.

I may end up making a Ship AI as an NPC, just because I've got a joke in my head about it.

@Hylozoist

Go for it!

I'd say "you can go out and make some!" but, honestly, doing that is hard and more than a little terrifying. But I've found that making gamer friends has one advantage - you tend to meet them in an environment where everyone's there to do something else, and the friendships sort of happen over time. The thought of going out to meet people for the sake of meeting people is pretty scary, but going out to play board-games with people who are also there to play board-games isn't so bad. If I start feeling nervous about talking to somebody, I can just focus on playing the game. Even though we're all probably there, really, to meet people, the convenient fiction about it really being about playing board-games takes the edge off that.

Okay, no more rambling, I am going to drink some tea and clear the foggy cloud of sleep from my poor, addled brain-meats.

@Hylozoist

Its not that I haven't really tried, its just hard to find people online my age in my area (small rural town) where people can meet up to do stuff like that. Plus, aside from roleplay games, I don't consider myself much of a gamer anymore since most games no longer hold my interest any longer than about half an hour. I also, kind of shut down around most people in social situations, though not really sure if focusing on a game in front of me would help or not.

The bees can do it all!

And man, you guys have way more social life than me. I've never even been to a con. I have no local friends, let alone gamer ones. My closest gamer friends live in New Zealand, so about 8,500 miles away .-.

City of Jade

I uh, just posted something a bit rushed, just to keep things moving. I'll make a more detailed post when things get a bit more lively again.

City of Jade

As Lei was laying down, he could feel something in his spirit resonating, he could feel something or someone calling out to him from within the city. He walked between the two sitting on stones, even if it was a bit impolite, and pushed past the gate to ascend the stairs towards the city. Feeling it inside him as he got closer, nearly entranced.

When he reached the top of the stairs, he was awe-struck at the size of the mega-structures, the jade towers throughout the city. He wandered aimlessly through the city in search of something or someone else, more familiar to him.

Let me know if I need to change anything.
