Self-control? What's that?
I had been trying to avoid signing up for new RPGs. Really, I had. I wanted to save my creative energies for the reworking of my book. But, with such good RPGs coming out with such good people behind them, who am I to say "no"?
I loved the first Kill Adam. The Chapter System is definitely something I liked, technically speaking. The story was great, with an incredible amount of work behind it. The whole RPG, as has been said, was revolutionary on Otakuboards.
And I would know. ~_^
*flaunts rarely-noticed Oldie status*
Yep, I was doing RPGs back when they were in the Games and Stories section.
*THWAP*
Right, Kill Adam. Revolutionary stuff. I look forward to signing up for the second one. I just have one issue troubling me. Do I do what is expected, and go with Hattori Hanzo, the male character?
Or....
Do I sign-up as "The Daughter", and enter a world that I know little about? :p
Such is my dilemma.
I also plan on signing up for Shy's hero. I love the idea he has for designating the characters' superpowers. Based on the sign-ups people give, he will assign their powers.
"Their powers will tie directly into their internal and external struggles."
I think that is one of the cooler ideas I've heard of. :D
So, yes, a sign-up for that is forthcoming. I just want to know more about the 1960s before I design a character that lives in that time. >_>;;
Another RPG that caught my eye was Justin's Blood Debt. It doesn't seem terribly complicated, but that's one of the reason's I look forward to it. I've always had a thing for "Greco-Romanness", as Justin puts it. And I like Justin, besides. He's a good guy. ~_^
I had considered signing up for Tony's Torment, but, again, I didn't want to get bogged down. And, horror isn't really my genre. It'd be fun to dabble, but...eh. I need to get moving on W.H.A.T.E.*
I've been waiting for an opportunity to go to the library to take out some books for research. I'd like to know a bit more about medieval tactics and strategy. I know the components; men, horses, castles, weaponry, and such. But, the most experience I've had with them is what other people have written in their own stories.
Once I've studied up on that, I can try to figure out how to mesh it with space-age technology. ^_^;;
I've got to go now. My dad called a little while ago from the golf course (where he works for the moment) and they need some carts put away. Heh, golf carts are fun to drive! :D
After that, my mom is dragging me to the mall for shorts. =/
It's not that I don't need shorts; I just don't really like shopping with my mom and siblings. But then again, who does? :p
See you later, alligator.
*W.H.A.T.E. = When Humans are the Enemy.
