Plancescape: Mortal Affairs
Hey, all!
This is a freeform game set in (pre Faction War) Sigil. 2e Planescape is authoritative cannon. Think of this as an opportunity to play any character you like (including any character from a different D&D game if you don't mind being Clueless). There is no particular plot beyond the one you create. Indeed, my only role as a GM is as an administrator of the game forum (co-GMs are welcome). Players may go to different places in the Cage--anyone can create a new thread representing a new location which they are then responsible for while other players are present there. Indeed, if a group of people feel the urge, they are welcome to go on their own freeform adventures. Consider this a chance to play whatever character you want (within reason and the rules)
I'm looking for players and players who also want to co-GM.
There are a few rules:
-Anyone creating a 'room' (whether that's a tavern or someplace outside of Sigil entirely) is free to set the ground rules (stuff like: 'no combat,' 'no Clueless,' 'no powerful characters,' 'only fiends,' 'only invited players,' etc.). It's on you lot to decide. I'll run the first room.
-The person starting a thread is solely responsible for what goes on in that thread. I'm happy to try and mediate any issues (as should be any of my putatative co-GMs). If you don't like other peoples' play styles, don't play with them. If someone is a systematic problem, bring it up with them first. POLITELY. If there's still a problem, reach out to me (or, again, one of my putatative co-GMs) by PM. If you're causing problems on that scale and we can't work something our, I reserve the right to boot you.
-This is a freeform game. Don't be a dick, and obey the best practices of freeform. Nobody likes a Mary Sue or chaotic-stupid kender burgalar. And don't narrate other players' actions for them. Freeform is about give and take and self-imposed limits in the name of an interesting story.
-Time and Planescape cannon may be a bit wonky (with everyone's different takes). Just roll with it. If it makes you feel better, pretend that everything is a branching string of slightly different multiverses. But sharp departures from PS cannon are out of scope. Please don't.
-Sigil does not allow gods, arch-exemplars, or epic level mortals (etc.) through it's portals. Characters of this level of personal power are off limits. And frankly, not very interesting for others to play alongside.
Applications:
Post in this thread and send a request to join the game! Once your invite is accepted, you can post in any thread your character might plausibly show up in and meets the rules for. You may play as many characters as you feel you can manage but one character can only be in one thread at a time please.
