Break a leg! (Looking for GM and players for an unusual Serenity game)

Just a thought: Maybe you should have used the Game Planning forum to advertise for a Serenity DM. I believe the moderators prefer that only the DM/GM/ST of a particular game advertise for it.

I could be wrong. In which case, don't mind me.

On another note, I'd love to try out Serenity. I have the pdf of the core rulebook, and I've been dying to try it out.

Yep, you're after the above thread. A mod will likely close this ad shortly and re-direct you.

Unfortunately, I have no idea about the Serenity setting or rules - otherwise I'd throw my hat in the GMing ring. Gotta put that useless career of working in theaters to some use.

I'm looking for players and a GM; hopefully that's acceptable.

Providing that this game is going to run, with you as GM starting in the next few weeks then it's fine. If it just so happens that you'd like a GM to apply as well and if they do you will transfer responsibility it's acceptable.

OK, thanks for the clarification.

I've never played Serenity, but I'm a massive theater dork. Excuse to learn a new system, yay!!!

I'm thinking an older method actor (the sort who submerses himself into the character by doing things like driving a cab for three weeks in preparation for being in Taxi) which would give him an excuse to have a lot of random skills. That or an ambitious Ingenue who started out as a Companion.

This idea intrigues me and I am tempted to volunteer to GM. Let me think about it a couple of days and see if I can come up with something to tie it together in my mind with an overarching plot. You mentioned in various places a ten planet tour and the rim so Kalidisa would fit the bill - it has more than ten planets plus a proto-star with planets. The other rim star is Blue Sun, but it only has seven planets and a proto-star.

What I gather is that pretty much anything as far as story is a go as long as the main theme stays in place - namely you're all actors on tour who may or may not get caught up in other adventures along the way. Would I have to gm each play? And would it be acceptable if there were a major side trip or two?
