Dungeon Keeper: The RPG
« on: March 04, 2011, 12:19:54 am »

Dungeon Keeper the Rpg
A location based, time-management defence and strategy RPG

     Have you ever wished dwarf fortress was more evil? Have you played Kobold Quest? Do you wish they'd made another Dungeon Keeper sequel? Well then I have the Rpg for you!
Come play as one of an evil enclave trying to make their home in the underground and serve their dark lord for fun and profit. But pesky competitors and crusading do-gooders try to eradicate your fort from the face of the earth.

How to play
1. make a character (see post #2)
2. spawn forth from the darkest corner of the abyss and eeke out miserable/joyous existence before the legions of outsiders send you back to the shadows, or maybe begin a dark reign of terror as your minions spread forth malignantly across the surfaceworld in your name?

What to excpect

amassing a hoard to rival any creature
Heroes attacking your lair
expendable minions at your side?
mauraders raiding
a lighthearted toungue in cheek tone
3 shifts of 8 hours each, per day, managing your time
in order to prepare your defences
punctuated by brutal combat

Ready to play?

Hrm. Very interesting; this will require some thought.

Question: Is there any way to gain access to special skills other than by being the appropriate class?

EDIT: Also, reserving spot. I'm not sure I'll be able to make a character with just this, but I'm definitely in and working on it.

(Nothing is planned but i'd probably allow a earned abilities to cross over so you can multiclass in a sense. However it would be much more efficient to make a new character in that case.
     Say you earned a perk, i'd let you spend it to learn dabbling alchemy (given an in game justification), but you still have to earn skillpoints to put into the alchemy skill, and then discover/research/be taught recipies so it would take a while before you have something like a healing potion, though some simpler things might be doable like making lye and oil flasks and stuff)

Hehe, you should probably get some sleep before answering these, but I have numerous questions:

Whoo, sorry about all that. I fully understand if the answer to any of that is "I'm not sure yet" or something similar.

Anyway, despite all that, I'm leaning heavily towards an armored salamander-type infernalist with a fair amount of crafting skills. I'll probably want him to have some sort of attack skill, however, which is why I'm asking about Striker vs Grappler vs normal weapon skills.
