treasure hunt quest

1) Has anyone already started this

2) If not, who wants to participate. I'd play the role of the pirate if we get enough people. I was thinking something along the lines of The Seven Samurai (or The Magnificent Seven to all you western people):

we get people to sign up in this thread, forming a pool of potential characters. Then me and someone I pick/ the first to sign up (the 'captain' of the other team) will recruit from the pool of characters during the storyline. Then we rp and have funz being competetive and double crossing each other, etc.

*there could potentially be more than one team, or even people could break off and form their own during the story if they want.

*recruiting is optional, this will be completely free-roam. The captain is free to try it on his own and just let the others fall into place during the course of the story.

All off the top of my head, thought up as I'm writing this. I want to roleplay. Preferably with people that know how, but newbs/ people with no confidence in themselves ( ;D ) are fine too. If this falls to the bottom of the page, reply-less, I will piss on everyone. Don't make me do it.

[Szar]

I'm interested. I'll just think up a custom character and then once that's all squared away consider me in.

[Waffuru]

I thought Kiro was doing it.

[Jack]

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH. Hopefully you're wrong.

[Waffuru]

That shouldn't make a difference.

[Jack]

What do you mean by that?

Tapion and Paragus say they want to participate. That's 4 so far... even though Nappa doesn't even have a character >_<. He's reliable though, so he'll be alright.

[Waffuru]

I mean, it shouldn't matter if Kiro is doing it. Everyone can jump in until it's over.

[Abel]

This sounds good enough to join. Hmmm...I think I'll participate.

[Jack]

That makes 5. If Kiro is actually doing this already, that makes 6. Waffuru knows he wants to join but he hasn't made it official =o.

I am thinking of somewhere between 10 and 15 people in total. That may seem like a pipe dream considering this place is emptier than a nun's vagina (sorry), but I have hope. The core we have now though are all good writers. One of us even roleplayed within the last few months. =D Progress!

[Abel]

Dude. I'm here. That's all we need. >_>

[Jack]

Paragus wont even be able to start until a few days from now so THERE.

[Alexander Trafford]

I'm in.

[Jack]

I'm in.

AWESOME. I like how this will be the first time a lot of people roleplayed in a while.

How does everyone feel about incorporating some NPCs? My idea now is to have them be sort of designated to 'zones' on a map, and have them hold useful items/information that would be beneficial for the team that acquires it. And maybe teams gather a general 'alignment' as the story continues, based on how they play the game, and that will play a role in how teams interact with the NPCs. Example:

Say Team A has been killing people since the game started, and they seek out Joe Blow (NPC) for the key to a gun stash. Or maybe Joe Blow knows where Team B was last seen with the treasure they want. If Team A has been killing everyone, consequently having an alignment of 'evil', and Joe Blow just so happens to have an alignment of 'good', team A would have to fight Joe Blow for the information/item. That fight could lead to somebody dieing (most likely just being kicked out of the quest), the group being split up, vulnerable to a further attack by another team, etc.

Scenario 2 is Team B is trying to find the treasure to save a starving village, and have been thoroughly goody two shoes the whole game. If Team B (having an alignment of 'good') finds Joe Blow (also 'good'), then Joe would be happy to help them out.

I'd come up with something better than 'good' and 'evil', those suck. But you get the idea. This will need some moderation, but if there isn't a staff member available/willing, I guess I can sit this out (or RP, with no team, and get no rewards) and do it myself.

Thoughts?

[15:09] crimsonkilla2447: oh
[15:09] crimsonkilla2447: so does it sound good?
[15:10] CommanderFasism: Doesn't sound too shabby
[15:10] crimsonkilla2447: Michael Keaton sucked balls as batman
[15:10] crimsonkilla2447: would you wanna do it?
[15:11] crimsonkilla2447: or if not, at least help with the moderation?
[15:11] crimsonkilla2447: cuz it will need a mod or two to be cool
[15:12] CommanderFasism: Yea
[15:14] CommanderFasism: Wouldn't mind either way
[15:14] CommanderFasism: Depending on circumstance.
[15:14] crimsonkilla2447: cool
[15:15] crimsonkilla2447: now things are 'rolling'

I guess that is a yes.

[Waffuru]

Also, you don't have to wait for Bojack to start this. And if you don't want to team/write with the people in this thread, you can try solo. It's set up so tons of people can complete it at once.

[Waffuru]

Call to all alliances! come do this quest, the reward for the best team is going to be epic

plus, bragging rights as the best alliance

[Aqua]

I'm fairly certain Dissolute will be in it. If not for the potential reward, than to RP with Brojack and to help the IC activity as a whole.

I don't think anyone that signed up is even interested in this anymore.

[Jack]

How do we roleplay looking for a treasure? After some thought, this seems difficult without some sort of system to chart progression (or something).

[Szar]

I'm still interested.
