@Brink I can see where you got that from, and actually I think that would probably have been correct in the original RP. However, the rules on undead resurrection and the Lich King Curse are the main things I'm going to be changing, and I'm afraid what you suggested won't be the case. However, the character will either become undead (with plenty of negative side effects, to avoid death becoming something that may happen and will be of no consequence to the RP), or the character will simply be dead and we'll find some way to integrate a new character into the RP. Unless, of course, somebody can find something wrong with either of those two options, I'll be putting that up to vote in the OOC to see which one people prefer. I hope that helps!
@NinthDecay Well, we have four already, although that includes me as the GM. I'll probably wait 1-2 more days to see if this gets any more interest, and then open up an OOC!
@NinthDecay Well, personally I'd prefer quality (just things like being able to actually understand the post, nothing too fancy!) and frequency over length, so I'd say at least one paragraph (four lines, maybe?) every couple of days. However, it's actually really up to what is convenient for the players, and I know we also have somebody else who has exams, so if you would need more time then I'm sure that would be fine!
Rumours have been stirring around the cities and towns; About a mountain, risen from the grave of a fallen empire. A dread king and his soldiers - long since defeated – now once again clamouring for war. Of a once peaceful land overtaken by treacherous swamps and the rotting undead...

Hundreds of years past, a great empire, the Empire of Bones, went to war against the smaller kingdoms scattered around the continent. They were led by the Lich King, a mighty but heinous ruler who ruled with force and cruelty alone. The war was ended when a small group of mercenaries, warriors and adventurers infiltrated their mountain fortress and slew the Lich King and his advisers. Weakened and in a state of disarray, the Empire of Bones soon fell beneath the renewed force of the kingdoms, and the mountain fell.

However a power, far beyond anything conceivable to humans, has summoned the mountain fort once more, and transformed the rolling hills and meadows of the Old Country into a twisted land of dark moors, shadowy forests and dangerous swamps. The neighbouring kingdoms, growing ever more concerned, have sent out a request asking for adventurers, mercenaries and fools willing to infiltrate the mountain. They've promised a handsome sum of gold to any who can return alive, though they don't expect they'll have to pay; None who have travelled to the mountain have returned. Yet.

The mountain is made up of intertwining dungeons filled with armies of the undead, wyverns and other creatures of the night. Each dungeon is controlled by a powerful Lich, who must be killed before the Lich King becomes too powerful. It is your job to do so!

So, this is a dungeon crawler adventure RP where the players will have a large influence on what is going on. Each dungeon has a Lich, and each player will be given the opportunity to control a dungeon (though this would be optional), meaning that the players not only participate in the story, they can craft it.
This is a reboot/remake of a RP that died out very recently because the GM couldn't run it any more, sadly. However, there are a few people who want to keep it going, hence this thing. If you feel you need any more information (about the world, etc) before you decide whether you're interested or not, here is the link to the previous RP:



Be aware, I intend to change some minor details (mainly about the 'Lich King's Curse'), but hopefully nothing that would interfere with any interest or enjoyment of the game. So yeah, if you're interested in this then just pop a comment by and we'll see how this goes.
Also, credit to Scrapula for coming up with the idea and letting us continue on with it.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This RP has started, but we're looking for more players. If you're not sure, come on over to the OOC - there's more information to be found there! roleplayerguild.com/topics/126960-empi..
@Savage This looks better by the second! I'll have a read through the info on it tomorrow, but yeah I'm pretty sure that most, if not everything, will have been answered in the OOC.
Yeah, I think we should definitely keep going with it, and hopefully when we start a new thread we'll pick up some more interest.
Yeah I'm interested in this, though I agree with Witch Cat that more information is needed.
Yup, ok, just thought I'd get in here and say that I'm definitely interested.
Definitely not a shameless bump. To anyone interested, we have a group of people, but are looking for more to come and have fun and party! That's right, you don't want to miss this opportunity...
Ok ok this is no problem, we still have three characters and one more to come, right? However, maybe we should start without knighthawk? This is just a suggestion, but it is taking him/her a long time and there should be some way to integrate him/her naturally into where the RP is up to. Might be a little bit of motivation for them to, you know, speed up a little bit?
Of course that is just a suggestion because it is taking a long time to get things started, I can understand if people want to wait. I'm sorry if it sounds unkind.
