Ys-based Board RP - A Poll of interest.

[Falcom Director of Fanservice]

As we all know, one of the cooler aspects of the Ys series is that it has a continuous and rather nicely established world. Whilst the games focus on the exploits of our dear Adol, it is hinted, many a time, that other adventurers crisscross Erasia and Afroca.

I would like to run a board RP with some of these adventurers. =(

But, in order to do that, I would have to know if anyone is interested. What I would like to do is set it a little while after the events of Ys VI, with characters that you guys make up yourself (I really dislike using established characters for RPs =(). There would be no system that use guys would see, as I don't want to encourage metagaming and suchlike.

As for the theme, I would like to something with a fair mix of intrigue, Roleplaying, and moments of good ole fashioned ruins exploring/monster bashing.

Of course, to do this, I would require some players, people willing to post once or twice a day. Anyone interested?

I think there used to be a section for that...

[Falcom Director of Fanservice]

I figured there probably was, once. I suspected such a thing would arise, and with no real controlling interest, probably spiral out of control and have an amusing death; such is the way of things. Thus asking, rather than a straight out sign up thread.

A poll of interest without a poll? I am mighty disappointed.

A poll! Give us a poll!

I'm always game for RP fun, though it's been my experience that board-run ones tend not to survive unless the board itself is exclusively FOR RP. But hey... one never knows.

Daily posting requirements might be a bit excessive for some, though... how bout weekly?

[Falcom Director of Fanservice]

Every couple days, I suppose. I wouldn't call it a requirement unless someone is really holding everyone back.

And fine, I'll see if I can edit in a poll. But only because I love you, Seldane.

Edit: No can do, big guy =(

[FM-77AV]

You can't edit in one, but you can make a new one. If you want to.

I would love to play in this if you're still thinking about it. I was actually thinking about doing a d20 Ys conversion a little while ago but decided to go with a Phantasy Star theme instead which I'm still working on.

I've found most play-by-post games I've been in work the best if there's a 48 hour window for a player to post and after that they get skipped.

So would this have an actual system (d20, WoD, etc.) that you'd run behind the scenes?

There really is an Ys pen & paper RPG book that was released in Japan. I think I may have bought it off someone here a long time ago. It's in Japanese though so I have no idea how it works.
