It's a scenario where the world is run by megacorporations that have spheres of influence (Much like a country). You'd be a megacorporation and try to work your way to the top, specializing in anything you want. Maybe you can drive out your competition by discovering alien life with your space exploration department? Or maybe you can come out on top by inventing artificial intelligence with your robotics department? All up to you. Of course, this roleplay would be absolutely filled with spies and assassins. What would make this game interesting is really not developing your own corporation, but sabotaging other corporations.

So... would anyone be interested?
Spywork ain't my type, sorry.

Soo...I've been considering revamping Art Of Warfare, and bringing it back.
it is a mystery

I thought we wanted to cut down on the amount of RPs.

A few years ABY would be ideal, but I'll look over anything.

I think the only real focus during that time was the New Sith Wars (Or whatever canon is calling them now) which was started from another jedi schism.
Other than that the only thing I remember worth mentioning was the rise of Darth Bane and his 'rule of two' near the end of that millennium.

I was think mid way into the NSW's because it gives us a somewhat blank canvas no?

True. I'd be interested in any sort of Star Wars roleplay, really- I'd suggest selecting the era which you're most comfortable with, being the DM.

long ago a flare of the sun happened and the world was in turmoil.
After the turmoil ended a group of people realised they had gained powers..
the most noticeable are Ghost, Armoury, Trick-trap, and Spider.
Ghost, the immortal one of the group can control, frost and phase though anything, spart from silver.
Armoury, the tank, his skin is harder than diamond, yet electciry can incabitate him, his body can also shift into multiple weapons
Trick trap, the thinker,he has the gift of precongtive thought and can make any trap, from his body,
Spider, the speedster, can bend backwords and spit poison, he can also walk on walls and ceilings
200 years ago they vanished now the world needs them again
A group of other supers calling them self the Loki's Children are rising up and claiming they now hold the Group, (oh and people with powers have a like increased life span)
you like?
idea for my roleplay basically..
Call me Rainbow Fox if you want

Boethiah's Chosen

Post by OblivionDuruza »

Just gauging possible interest on an idea I mentioned a fair while ago and have been mulling over for quite a while now.
Boethiah, the Prince of Plots, who rules over deceit, conspiracy, secret plots, murder, assassination, treason, and the overthrow of authority, is also a lover of competition and battle. Boethiah's Tournament therefore has two elements, battle and deceit.

A dozen of Boethiah's Chosen are called to take part in a Tournament to the death over 6 Days, eventually resulting in one survivor who will be named Boethiah's Champion.

Each round, with the exception of the first (which begins in Day), follows a cycle of Night and Day. Boethiah's Chosen do battle from Dawn until Dusk until one is slain. At the end of each day of competition one of the Chosen is rewarded by Boethiah for their performance in the day's challenge. The Night is a time of respite, but each new Dawn one of the Chosen is taken by Boethiah as a result of a secret ballot amongst the Chosen.

Unity and cooperation are essential to victory in challenges and survival through the Night, however, there can only be one victor and one Champion of Boethiah.

Mechanics:
Spoiler:
During challenges the Chosen fight a manner of foes for Boethiah's amusement under a number of circumstances. In each case, the death of one of the Chosen is required, in some cases it is necessary for the survival of the other Chosen and the Chosen themselves must choose.

Further instruction on individual challenges will occur each day specific to the upcoming challenge.

After Dusk each remaining player PMs the name of another player to the DM and the player who receives the most votes is killed at Dawn the next day and is immediately out of the game.
Players:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

I had been toying with an even more complex idea involving the DM 'messing' with player actions (partly under the secret advice of the players - in order to provide anonymity in their betrayal) to further cause confusion and trickery, but I think I'll limit it to a single challenge. :Twisted Evil:

RPs with a fairly definitive timeline are effective, they don't often burn themselves out and structure makes things smooth and effective. :mrgreen:
