I have indeed gone insane. MAD WITH POWER, one might say. Anyway.
The City of Heighton. Bright, beautiful, and blessed with all the bright futures and hopes and dreams that money could buy. A city built on the hopes and fortunes of its people.
But those fortunes soured. Businesses who were originally supportive of the city, soon found themselves either hard-pressed to make ends meet or moved out of the city entirely. Crime escalated, people's lives went through changes of all sorts, leaving us with the city as it is today. Thirty-five years after its birth, the city of Heighton is a vastly different place from the way it was before. It was envisioned as a city of opportunity... and it is, but not in the way it was originally designed.
But the story of the city does not matter much to the Consillium at the moment. What IS important is that Heighton is a wonderful place if you're magically sensitive. A place of potential and opportunity just waiting to be grabbed, if only you are brave enough to take it.
Yes, I know that again I'm going with the EXTREMELY VAGUE opening, more or less. BUT. The first part of this RP will probably be one shots mostly intended to introduce characters and setting... and get me a good idea of what you crazy nuts intend to do with OMG AWESOME POWARZ!!!
Characters are starting Mage characters in the New World of Darkness. For those who are used to the old WoD, there really isn't much to say. Entropy has been split into Death (Which handles Undead, Darkness, and Souls to some extent) and Fate (Random chance, happenstance, Destiny) arcana, for a total of 10 Spheres of Influence. No, this isn't the "Legendary 10th Sphere". So sorry. Character creation is a bit different too. You can ask me about it if you want and I'll try to help.
I'm hoping to get people that ARE well versed in the World of Darkness and its older forms, but this doesn't mean that total newbies to the system cannot apply. Of course all sheets have to be approved by me in advance anyway. No random jump ins.
ALSO ALSO: Partly to not conflict with Machine Knight,s and partly because I'm bored and tired of just sitting around doing nothing, this WILL be a CHAT RP. As such, please post times and I'll see what I can do. I'm HOPING for at least 4 RPers, but I will settle for as few as 3 this time in an effort to just get things MOVING. Please contact me by the end of the week. I want to get this off the ground NOW.
Starting characters only. The only world-shaking asshole gods are MINE, thank you. Also, there is a slight emphasis on the Spirit Arcana here. I'm not requiring everyone take it, and its acceptable to me if no one does. But I'd LIKE to see it somewhere. Aside from that, do what you want.
