RP INTEREST AND FEEDBACK REQUEST

---

Please provide as much detail as possible.
RP's Overarching Concept: A post apocalyptic nation builder set in a steampunk Europe
Genre/s: Action, Steampunk, Alt-History
Character or Faction Based: Faction
Detailed Description: The backstory is the Tenguska Meteor actually was as big as the British Isles and sent the world into a nuclear winter for 300 years. Only just recently has the sun come out on the devastated remnants of humanity. The nations of Europe, having all collapsed as order broke down in the months and years after the Great Darkness began have regressed into a more internal mindset not knowing or caring what happened to places like Asia, the Western Hemisphere, the Middle East or any part of Africa south of the Northern African coast. Instead the varied bands of survivors instead focused on survival however with the sun having returned and plants able to once again grow the survivors have now banded into communities and these communities have also banded together through force or diplomacy. Also rather recently the power of steam as a means to run machinery has been rediscovered and the discovery quickly spread across the continent sparking a new Industrial Revolution built on steam power. These nations prospered and as time went on even began trading with others but peace never lasts. Already, so close after humanity was brought from the brink of total destruction, armies have begun to marshal. War machines march once again across the fields of Europe as diplomats furiously try to stop, or start wars to further their nations interest.

You are going to create your own nation and try and gain a commanding position in this new Europe through means of both diplomacy or war.

Need Help With: I want to first make sure there would be interest in this but also would like any suggestions as to how to make this more appealing.

I find myself wanting to join a god rp/divinity rp. Namely as another (yep, another) snake goddess.

Ideas forming?

[The Republic of Atria]

Alright. I was thinking about doing a Destiny RP. Would take place just after the ending of 2.

My problem is that there isn't that much to do and I'm looking for advice on what I could have everyone do for the main plot. Or really just a main plot in general. Side stuff isn't too much of an issue.

[Kassaran]

How about not use Destiny?
:^)

[Theyra]

Destiny-Like or post-aqoc sci-fi set in the solar system?

I meant a roleplay that takes place in the Destiny universe.

I'd be interested. I was really looking forward to continuing the god RP by Nuridia, but it died.

You could do your own thing, I don't really know the story in 2 besides the City falling.

Yeah, I’m super sorry about that.

I as well have been left wanting more of 'Junior Gods of Anara ' or the like. I'll likely join the next god RP that comes up.

Very fun ^_^ so much so that I have no issue joining it again.

If I was better at managing RPs and if I didn't have any going already, I'd probably make one myself. But my current thing I'm really into right now are vampires and wizards. If I was joining an RP I'd want something with vampires in it.

A bit of a coincidence since I just mentioned one of my vampire characters on The Titans RP Group thread.

I for one can see Vampires being included in a god/divinity RP. My interest in such RPs where rekindled from Runescape- which I started playing again to compete in it's 'King of the Skill' competition which will reward a gaming laptop or PC (minecraft themed) to the top player. The contest runs through November.

- But I digress- I got interested in playing a god/divinity RP after learning again of Juna, a divine snake in RuneScape. I like her character, and she reminded me of Hsiss and Hsiss reminded me of the RP.

Yeah, I was in a deity RP with vampires in it once.

This one has both vampires and some magic in it. But it's more comedy and slice of life than any real combat and action.

Sounds interesting though I don't like Vampires that much XD hahaha They are cool but, having looked at the OOC I can tell that it's too focused on Vampires for me. Like- I'll play one, but it's always the 'mortal vampire' types that 'know nothing' of 'vampire culture' on account to being 'half bloods' who has been reared in the ways of man.

Most of the time not even knowing what they are. So I play them as Human till something 'awakens' them in which case they need discipline - to temper the thirst with in.

Well, on the subject of a divinity/god RP.

I propose that for this one, we avoid what has tended to happen in the past- by enforcing a policy that players have to play young gods.

Or

That we find one player, and one player only- to serve as Co-Op and 'THE EVIL POWER' as well as 'EMBODIMENT OF NOTHING' so that the RP world doesn't get destroyed as it has in the previous installments.

Or

Have that players must agree to avoid such actions on their character's part. As a binding agreement between the gods; where in a weapon capable of destroying them will be wielded against them should they cross this arrangement.

*Just trying to think of ways to avoid an 'Armageddon' like event. Because in one RP we started building the world, and it was destroyed on it's first day of existing. In another some elder god destroyed out exams by destroying the settlement.

We just need to limit the players influence, and not permit players to ability to play elder gods. The Young Gods series I feel will work if the players are limited to young gods. Otherwise, the elder god players, having no real role in the plot, tend to lash out to let the world know they are around.

[Theyra]

About that Destiny rp idea. I would be interested in it and could help with figuring out a plot.

I like choice 2 or 3 because I like playing as elder gods and it removes the possibility of an armageddon as you said.

Alright, let's see what we can do from here.

The Astral: Arena of the Gods
Since a time no mortal has lived in the gods have warred. Seeking to enforce their image upon the worlds. Many have empires of followers encompassing many lands; followers eager to step through the portals to other realms to do battle on behalf of their gods. Pantheons formed as alliances where made, and through it all it is mortals who suffer.

But there are places that seek refuge from these wars, and one such place is Kimbilio.

Kimbilio: Isolated Refuge
Kimbilio stands out in that no god present upon it knows who created it. Kimbilio was there, some territory long forgotten and nearly devoid of life. It is here that various loosing forces arrived with refugees of the wars. Their creations, devoted followers, and the like.

Concerned that the wars would come to Kimbilio from among these new to it, the eldest of the gods of Kimbilio called those early few who arrived together to forge a compact between them. The talks where long, heated at times, slow at others- yet from it was forged the 'Godslayer'.

A weapon in the fashion of those used to execute defeated gods in the conflicts of the astral plane. Only one was made, and different then others of it's design- for only a mortal may wield it and to that mortal will come the power to withstand the assaults of a god and end a god.

This choice was the most heated point of the meeting but it was determined to be the best check lest one god use such power to lord over the rest. The weapon, is not weldable by any of the gods for by it's nature the weapon will banish them from Kimbilio should they try.

The Compact
(Ideas?)
