Hello and welcome to the game where dice not decide your fate, but shape the events and the world around you. I may be able to describe it to you, but ultimately only the dice know the future and keep it even from me. Allow me to introduce you to:
Dice-Scape
This is a much updated version of my previous single player game I had on here.
Updates since last game:
-Players may choose a race for their character (currently 4 and more in the future)
-Players have the option of 10 more classes to choose from (up from 7 for a total of 17 and more is planned in the future)
-Weapons have been modified
-Towns have been VERY modified with having distinctive racial populations with perks, businesses have custom prices dependent on the roll of the dice, they now have guards, players can hire mercenaries to accompany them, players can buy property and much more
-Weapons can now earn various degrees of fame depending on what battles they were involved with, and if they inflicted a killing blow. This will affect their value.
-A lot more random minor tweaking with the game system in general
Future updates
-Farms for both edible plants and trees with useful properties
-A quest system
-A system for rising up in some of the larger towns in the royal family
-A system for robbing mainly for thieves
-A system for owning towns and being able to positively or negatively impact its population, economy and growth. This will also include the making of militias, academies, and defending said towns from invasions of both enemies of people as well as monsters such as trolls and dragons.
-The inclusion of already legendary weapons likely to be acquired through earning ranks in large towns, or taking them over.
-Towns to be inhabited by vampires, but would initially be unknown to the player(s) until it is perhaps too late.
-More baddies to encounter and fight (16 more planned)
I am not going to go into detail of exactly how every mechanic works on this topic, but if you wish to know, this is still relevant:
http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=151515.0This game is going to have a background story unlike my previous one:
For years now, the world has been under siege by an unknown force. This force no one seems to have any understanding of, whether it be magical, disease, other worldly, or something beyond the minds of mortals. What this force does is mend the mind of an individual in the blink of an eye, turning them into a blood thirsty puppet. They will strike and mane any of those who stand next to them. Other than not speaking a word, their mind and body are just as it were when before being stricken. This has affecting a sizable amount of people, and some areas have been reduced to rubble as those alive and sane fled. One of the more troubling symptoms of this infliction is it makes the victim seek out with uncanny ability their friends and loved ones. It is as if they have super natural ability to find them. Kings and other royalty are unsure how to safeguard against this, as no matter how high of a wall one puts up, it breeches them seemingly with ease, as those in the walls become infected like any other population. This has led to many pointing the finger at any source that comes to mind, even others. Consequently this has made the once well mixed populations of the world, almost entirely separated. But one thing is still shared by all, and that is the name given to this blight: "Mind Pox".
Now, keep in mind I will not randomly give anyone who actively plays Mind Pox. This is for those who stop playing for too long, and I get bored taking over their character, or to kull the population if there is too many. But, the rest of you wont get a warning when it happens, so be on your toes! Oh and please dont take offensive if I do this to your character. Its to keep the campaign healthy and moving along while giving the game an element of uncertainty. If you come back, you are free to make a new one. Oh ya, no metagaming.
If I feel you havent responded in enough time and others are active, I will take over until you return, but ya, sooner or later Mind Pox will set in. This wont happen for at least a few days real time, and sending me a message letting me know you are not going be active for a time will stave it off for longer.
Now then, for the sign up. I am looking for at least three active players to start out with. The more the merrier. You will need the following:
