“The darkness will not be shattered so easily, for in the quarters of time it is the trepidation – the fear of the dark that grants it solidity. It is we, the children of Osiris, the keepers of the sacred torch, the hunters and seekers who hold the best chance against these darkness’s. ..
The darkness will not be shattered so easily… but neither shall the human spirit…”
I’m Board, and this time of year always brings me to morbid fancy. I’m looking to run a round robin style hunters game in a world very similar to (But not entirely the same as) what is seen in shows like ‘Supernatural’, ‘Constantine’, ‘Buffy&Angel’.
I’ve got the first story ready in mind, but don’t just want to run. I want to play.
The Set up I’m thinking of is that the group of players (I want 4 – 6 but May go as big as 8 or as small as 2) have all been touched in some way by the darkness; the darkly enchanted; the monsters, and demons and terrible, and are somehow drawn into the same plots. For all of them, a convergence of something terrible is not far off on the horizon. If they be hunters, they realize that whatever it is will take more than their singular resources to conquer… so they know that they need others like themselves to take on what’s coming. If they are fortunate survivors, and hapless victims they quickly realize that they cannot simply hide, or stay away and find that their only recourse is to find others to help them.
For characterization (Character Creation)
Feel Free to Make up your own Cards, but be prepaired to have them scrutinized, rejected and rethought.
For avatars, please stick with photorealistic images of real people.
For character types, I’m good with just about anything, as long as 1. You are a good guy, 2. You are not over powered, and 3. The saturation of Player Characters is predominately Human or Human+. This means if you are going to be a vampire, werewolf, sasquatch, demon or Hillary Clinton there must be some pretty extreme limitations on your power level and ability, and an overarching theme that cements you soundly in the realm of good guys. And those character types will only be handed out to at most -2- players (Only 1 before we have 3 players).
Also you –need- to be a hunter… be you reluctant, or all hot fired and spurred essentially you are in league with the light, and are dedicated to push back the darkness. There’s no player plotted betrayal of this ideal. Your character can’t be a double agent. You are a soul of light looking to protect the sanctity of humanity. (Try working –that- into your soul eating demon character. LOL)
One more thing… This game will be steeped in Magic, the Occult, demonology, and dark materials. I’m a big believer in not trying to exhaustively define such things, and as such there will be plenty of room for all the players to define aspects of the games cosmology, legend, myth, and manascope.
