Fading Suns
Brought to you by Dieter the Bold, courtesy of [Holistic Design].
System: Unique system involving d20s and d6s (NOT the d20 system, I like its mechanics).
Setting: Futuristic dark ages, with a nigh over-powering religious streak. Magic, psionics and aliens do exist.
Comparisons: Lethality closer to Werewolf than Cyberpunk with less healing opportunities, social interactions can be like Cyberpunk/Shadowrun or Vampire: TM, adventure and excitement on the level of Space Opera.
Requests:
1) Don't read too much on the setting. I'd like to do my best to control character/player knowledge and perceptions. For what that's worth.
2) Think some deep thoughts:
- What kind of character do I like to play?
- What do you want to get out of a game?
- When are you having the most fun in a game?
- What really makes a game suck for you?
Plans: I'll be generating characters for everyone based on what kind of story I come up with and the results of your deep thoughts (2) above. There will be a little bit of flex for you to make the characters your own, but not too much. They'll be designed for specific roles, so I won't let you stray outside of that role.
More to come as I think of it.
