The Planeswalkers RP (Interest)

Postby New Armarzia » Tue Jan 29, 2013 8:45 pm

Always had this idea in mind for an RP, but never been one for running RPs. The idea is completely based off of Magic The Gathering. Players will play as planeswalkers, powerful being incredible powers, the trademark power they all have in common in shifting between planes of existence, pretty much like dimensions. You will choose colors to reflect yourself and it will effect your abilities (but not too greatly, I like diversity of characters). People will also design their home planes (or choose existing ones). The story will be character driven with players banding together against one another to influence events in other planes and attempt to gain power and whatever personal goals you may have.

But before I make a fancy OOC page for it with tons of rules and apps I just want to make sure people are interested. So as long as a couple are I'll make a more formal OOC page to start it up.

Also let me know any hopes/wishes you want for this RP and I will try to incorporate them in, don't plan on being too harsh of an OP, just ensure no godmodding as I would ultimate also want to be a planeswalker with you guys.

The big issue I can think of that might come up is Planes, I would like to have players be able to make their own planes and not be stuck with only the ones in the MTG universe, but that may lead to too many planes with some players being neglected. I am also trying to think of a way to work the color system in without taking away too much freedom from characters (and making it easy for those who don't understand MTG story-wise).

Than stay tuned! Its snowing here so I may go ahead and make the OOC sign-up as there is nothing better to do :P

You could have people submit planes, and then while everyone chooses one where he/she comes from, choose a specific few where everything is going to occur.

How would it be played? I am an experienced RPer, though not the best, and can try and help make the RP better.

Might not be understanding your question, but the RP would be done from the perspective of your planeswalker even though your planes walker might command an army or vast network of agents (or whatever your play style fits). Planeswalkers are pretty much stuck between mortality and divinity...They have the weaknesses of mortals though it takes a bit more for them to be killed, but they have great powers in the form of influence, spells, or collections of artifacts. Planeswalker can come from any sentient race so you can be a dragon, elf, human, etc. You can summon armies or powerful being to fight for you from other planes. However, they would have to bind themselves to you and some of these beings (such as a demon) may require you to fulfill some task or bind you to some oath before they allow you to summon them. The last thing you can do is collect powerful artifacts to use for yourself when dueling other planeswalkers.

Dumbing it down a bit, you are pretty much a very powerful mage who travel to different dimensions, but you figure out there are others like you. From there you can choose to team up to complete goals or attempt to kill one another as you gain power from fallen planeswalkers. Occasionally I'll throw in events that will require everyone to address it, from there they can choose sides or all work together

Sounds cool to me. I've been out of the RPing game for a while, but this sounds fun.

I hate red burn :P Always kills my token decks. You can use creatures in the universe or ones you make up. You will make your own planeswalker, for the most part I iwll keep pre-existing planeswalkers out of the RP...though I may include other groups such as the phyrexians when I want everyone together on the same plane.
