Would anyone be interested in dedicating some time in a small worldbuilding RP? Something akin to a sandbox but not quite.
- The genre is still up in the air, but I really want to make new friends, and create something fun. Where we all just fabricate the world, its inhabitants, and the story. We all play a part in it's creation rather than a few staff members generating a plot in which our characters won't have a part in.
- By small I mean, no heavy advertising, no activity checks, etc. Just some people who enjoy writing with others. Of course there won't be complaints if it attracts a few people, but I wouldn't go out of my way to force people in or to stay.
- Free form applications, no systems, no rules. No reason to say your character is too op for its own good or that it doesn't fit the theme. Just one goal, and that is to write our stories.
I don't suspect that this will gain alot of attention, but atm I rp on a smallish site that really just goes at its own pace, --and i have to say, ive had the most fun rping there the last two years than anywhere else. Err, it's been a month, and I haven't really been here or anywhere really, but this sounds appealing just for the chance to control the setting--- mostly because of a certain character of mine that I can't seem to put into RPs because he demands a lot from the setting. Because of that same character, I've begun thinking that maybe I should make my own site with my own lore (or just write a story by myself but I haven't been able to create a straight coherent plot). The only problem is I've never made a site before and I've no idea how to go about making one. I've been thinking of a semi-medieval-with-a-dash-of-magitech setting, a world once governed by an elite and tyrannical group of mages in a floating castle city, who were deposed after a successful revolution. In the aftermath, the mages' fortresses became dungeon-like treacherous ruins due to all sorts of magic going haywire, becoming places that adventurers and treasure hunters delve into for magic items. Merchant kings became the ruling caste and mages either went into seclusion or became slaves, while artisans strove to reverse engineer the work of the mages. Meanwhile, certain extraplanar creatures start to enter the world without the mages' seals to keep them at bay. ...and I kinda want to introduce a church too of good guys that aren't a conspiracy, for a change. So, yeah, maybe I can make this with the help of someone, or someone could make this for me and I'll just make the lore or something, or I could go with what Shiva is talking about since a lot of things about it seem to be up in the air and possibly fitting my ideas? Or maybe I could find a site for my characters instead, make a search thread before? Help. XD
