You might do well to poke around and see if some other people might be interested in this, your friends and such. Not everyone in P2TM frequents the café after all.


Well this was my first time posting in nearly two years, I'm not sure I have much in the way of friends here anymore.

I did contact someone I know enjoys the Malazan series, he in fact suggested it to me two years ago, but he seems busy as well so lowering my pace would prove beneficial.


You could still try, anyway. People you've RPed with before and such. You could poke around the chat thread even, or look into RP groups. Frankly, the most efficient way of making acquaintances is joining other RPs, but I'm not sure how willing you are to do something like that, I'm just putting it out there.

Anyway, good luck with your roleplay.

No. Just that we feel inclined to not get on the bad side of a P2TM mentor, and continue with our little, happy, NS lives.


No, sorry. Revolution is the way.

Actually, Khan likely wouldn't mind if you set a RP in India, as long as it was treated tastefully. Sure it would be horribly inaccurate, but most of us don't do research theses before creating our concepts.

On the other hand, creating a Mexican RP would be more likely to amuse Zark than draw his ire.

I wouldn't mind as long as people weren't assholes about it or something, to be honest.

Eon Prime wrote:RP INTEREST AND FEEDBACK REQUEST
Please provide as much detail as possible.
RP's Overarching Concept: I'm trying to make an RP inspired by, but not set in, the Malazan Book of the Fallen series. My aim is for it to share a lot of themes and ideas with Malazan, while being able to appeal to people who are not familiar with the series (and avoiding unattractive things like copy-pasting lore and characters from the series, used rigidly and unimaginatively). The series involves great wars, the rise and fall of empires, the affairs of gods, and a wide world filled with ancient mysteries ready to be unfolded.
Genre/s: Epic Fantasy
Character or Faction Based: Character Focused, Faction Influenced
Detailed Description: I hope you don't mind Google Docs.

Need Help With: Putting the RP together, to an extent. I am known, elsewhere at least, for my expansive OPs and so I typically have no problem with this step. However, I'd like other people who are familiar with the series and what I'm trying to achieve to provide their input, and perhaps collaborate with me to make cohesive lore before I'm ready to move this forward.

Either that, or to tell me that I'm focusing on the wrong things and I need to reevaluate how I approach making an RP.

Please leave this hashtag in place: #Mentorhelp


I would automatically join this, but the series is on my list, I just finished The Name of the Wind, so I'll start reading this in the hopes of being able to make it into this RP. Don't worry, I'm a fast reader.

Also, I plan to start putting together my Mistborn RP tomorrow.
