Wait, what does #3 actually mean? Is the party a group of evil monsters in a high fantasy setting? Or is there a monster out there possibly more monsterous and morally corrupt than a party of Dwarf Fortress players? Is that even possible?
Gonna Sig this if you don't mind.

The thought both horrifies and excites me. But, option #3 would be about a Party of Monsters, that are typically depicted as Evil, attempting to survive and adventure across the World. They may or may not actually be Evil, but they'd have a hard time convincing most People.

No! Armok-Forbid, anything but that! I'll be trying my hardest to avoid cliches in the RPG.

Note: If I end up doing the Monster Campaign, I'd prefer that at least the Majority of the Party are Evil, or at least Neutral.

Why not blue and orange morality?

Believe nothing you hear. Or everything. Have fun. Love when?

I frequently use PMs to contact people if I think they would miss a post in the deluge.

That's also an entirely valid option, just anything but being out and out Good.

5. I want my steam punk, just make sure you don't just glue some gears on it and call it steampunk, or else.

Battleships Hurl insults from behind thick walls, Destroyers beat up small children, Carriers stay back in the kitchen, and Cruisers are a bunch of tryhards who pretend to be loners.

I Would be Interested in the Third or forth option, but would likely avoid the rest, PTW otherwise.

Everybody, This Thread isn't dead, I've just been having Computer Issues. I'll start a Game Thread Tomorrow, if the Tie between the Floating Islands, and the Monster Campaign hasn't been broken, I'll combine the two, if you want the combination, say so in the Thread. Thank you for your patience.

Always wanted to try out a dnd-esque rpg. Sign me in.

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.
