The Last Campaign



Hey gang, thank you for your interest.

I've always been a fan of portal fantasy.  Pretty much any tale where unwitting — and possibly unwilling — heroes from Earth travel to another fantastic world to have fantastic adventures.

Alice in Wonderland, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Fionavar Tapestry, Guardians of the Flame, Labyrinth, The Magicians, The Neverending Story, Peter Pan, Quag Keep, Tron, The Wizard of Oz.  The list goes on an on.

This tale will be about a group of friends that have recently gotten back together to roleplay again after a lengthy hiatus.  They have some history together  — not all of it good — and that interpersonal drama will figure into the story prominently.

After gathering and sitting down to play the game ... the group pretty soon realizes that not everything is as it seems.

Fantasy just got real.

Will they persevere?  Will they sort through their baggage?  Will they ever find their way home again?

Can they survive ... The Last Campaign?



In terms of tone, I am shooting for dark fantasy.  If it leans a bit toward horror ... so much the better.

The Last Campaign will be rated 'Adult' in case the fiction warrants it ... but I do not expect to linger on any elements earning that rating for very long.

Once accepted into the game, there will be a frank discussion about what is — and what is not — considered appropriate.



The game will not be free form, but the system I'm using is is fairly rules light.  Familiarity with DIE is not required, when we get started I can explain it in just a few posts.  Nothing too cosmic [a dice pool mechanic to beat a static target number] and it can easily be learned as you go.



I'm looking for 3 or four players (maybe 5) who can commit to 1-2 posts a week.

The Last Campaign

Three players have joined, gang.  Room for one or two more.

The train's about to leave the station.  Get at me!

The Last Campaign

[BUMP]

Hey gang, still room for one or two more.

The Last Campaign will be a tale about regular folks who get drawn into their game world as their characters.

I never thought I'd be using a Brazilian Car commercial as a teaser ... but here's a little nostalgia-bomb to help garner interest.
