Port Royale (Full)

Post by Centra Blu » Fri Nov 14, 2014 8:17 pm

IMPORTANT:

- Using Mad Modd's ruleset, not Kkat's Revised
- Gameplay on an IRC chat, OOC on Skype
- Partial Open world; Overarching plot, open character choices
- The SPECIAL system is doubled. Instead of a beginning base of 5, it instead starts at 10. All previous bonuses to SPECIAL are doubled (AKA: Hats give two PER, not one)


The Plot:

The land of Equestria just isn't right for you, it seems. All this stuff to do with raiders and slavers and ponies making pony jerky just doesn't fit your idea of a nice world. Lucky for you though, you seem to have found a break.
On the far edge of Equestria lays a huge sea sitting upon an old military base of Fort Griffin. One day there was a wooden ship much like the ones of old stories, wooden and floating in with a huge span of a mask with a reeking worse than the griffin’s rotting fish stores. They spoke of giving some willing travelers a ride to a land known as Port Royale.
An archipelago of islands that surrounded the mainland like pieces of land that snapped off. Miles stretch on with slowly growing and growing islands the further in you go. A map brought to you shows how large this place is, many uncounted islands that surrounded this world lay ahead of you.
The trail he laid out was complex, but would ultimately be leading them to a place desiring mercs and ponies of all trades. He doesn't seem to talk much more about the land other than the possible opportunities, but the price he wants from you is quite a deal for how far away it is, stating that he’s being paid to bring in some fresh bodies and items for trading, as much as the ship will fit.
And thus, begins the adventure.

This will be an open world game, ponies going along through it as they so please. There will be an overarching plot, the game will follow it as the team wishes, but other subplots may be followed as you wish. I, as GM, highly recommend exploring the world during our game. Feel free to ask for all the information you can find while out here.

Requirements for characters:
- You start the game at Level 5 (5,000 EXP on the spreadsheet)
- You start with 1,000 caps.
- You may spend an extra 100 caps for food/water/medical supplies. if you don’t spend it all, then you do not get the excess back.
- You may have a personal item of your choice. If the item’s value is less than 50 caps you may have the item for free as long as you can explain the backstory of it to me. You may have more expensive items or ones with unique effects only by special request to me, and be sure to have the backstory ready!
- All characters may take a background trait. Pick the trait that best fits your character and just talk to me if you feel like giving it a different name.
- No pony may have EXP raising perks.
- There is a section on the bottom of the spreadsheet for Background, their Appearance and room for a picture. These are not necessary, but if you wish to show them, feel free to do so.

Sorry about never putting down the time, it will be:

6pm EST (11pm GMT) on Fridays.
I will attempt to hold games for a good 4-5 hours.
