possible fire emblem rp???
I owe this thing a real post again at some point (and I have adorable dog pictures I should share with people who aren't on plurk) but that'll come later, sorry bros.
but anyway: rainy_takako and I were talking about how we would really love a single-fandom, canon-compliant roleplay based on Fire Emblem; specifically, Tellius. No panfandom NARUTO GETS LOST IN ANOTHER WORLD stuff, none of the loose continuity/changing settings of a dressing room type game.
If any of you out there would be interested, I would love it if you dropped a comment so we could gauge what we might have to work with here!
I'd also like to go ahead and start dickering about a few details here, in the interest of making it as accessible as possible to as many interested parties as possible, so a few other considerations:
- I kind of mentally default to "game played on LJ," myself. But if people would rather go chill on a different journaling site or throw together a forum or something, I'm not adverse to being flexible, since that convention of LJ RP where everybody has a ~*~mysterious communication device~*~ wouldn't really fit FE canon anyway.
- We're looking at spanning the gap between Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, because we feel like some of the epilogue stuff would complicate things unnecessarily anyway (i.e. NOBODY GETS TO PLAY IKE, LOL). Thoughts?
- OCs? I think it could be a nifty way of filling in the blanks, albeit only in places where it makes sense. (i.e. the Greil Mercenaries would not be open to OCs, since they're a pretty strictly defined group. On the other hand, random laguz soldier #27 under Ranulf's command would be perfectly doable.) It could help make things more interesting in areas that are underrepresented to start with.
- ...of course, if it's a small group to start with, then we might do better to pick a region so we don't have people off by themselves with no other characters around to interact with? This one really depends on how the rest goes, I guess.
Thoughts, suggestions, commentary, ALL IS WELCOME, because we don't have anything down in stone yet -- just the desire to MAKE A TELLIUS GAME WOOOO.
Also, I'm going to unlock this post, so if you know anyone outside my flist who might be interested, feel free to pass it along!
