Alright, so to explain what this is, I'm going to need to explain a little background. Roughly a year ago, I started to get a rough idea in my mind about a fantasy roleplay, inspired by many of the things I was watching or reading at the time. I managed to work on it only a little, before, as with the rest of my then roleplay ideas, I had to abandon it, due to a couple of real life issues combined with other factors. And ever since, it has remained only in the status of a rough idea. I had no time for it, and more important, I simply wasn't feeling on working like it. But now, with summer and the summer holidays approaching, I'm going to have much more free time. And then, inspired by some other fantasy roleplays I have been in on P2TM during the last year, I've decided that maybe I should start working again on this idea. But I obviously can't create an entire fantasy world and all its lore on my own, I'm neither Tolkien, nor George RR Martin. So, the best first step would be to open a worldbuilding/discussion thread. For those of you who don't know it, a worldbulding/discussion thread is a thread where the proper planning for a roleplay can be done, especially for one were lore has to be created. The world is built and imagined by the interested players, under the supervision of the OP/Creator(hence the Worldbuilding name). In generally, roleplays on which more players have worked end up better as those made by a single person, since more people combined have a lot more imagination. That's why, I'm going to need help on this. I was initially planning on opening this on the P2TM, and I still want that, but certain discussion over the past few weeks have made me want to at least try to wake up the roleplaying community of this region a little more. Judging by the surveys, at least a few of you have said that they would be interested in a fantasy roleplay, and hey, let's give it a try. Of course, eventually, I am going to move this thread on P2TM. Exactly how long it will stay on the regional forums depends on how much it takes me to make up a rough sketch for the roleplay, hopefully with your help. But now, let's try to see what happens here. In order for this thread to be successful, I'm going to need people who are interested in a type of roleplay like this, and can help me with ideas. Anything about the world can be accepted. I'll probably even let people work on their own ideas of nations inside the fantasy world. We'll see. Comments, opinions, and so on are more than welcome. Let's start this, I guess. Though, I particularly don't think that this will work. |

For what I've read, count me in. What type of fantasy will it be? Sci-fi, mythical, ancient, post-modern, etc? |

That's a little late. I still have the world I worked on, although I most likely will lack any sort of time to actually present it until the winter holidays. And if I will do it, it will most definitively be on the NS Forums. Well, it will be set in a world that started as a typical magic world, with other races except for humans, magic and sorts. But in the last century or so of that world's history, it's entered a steampunk sort of stage, and what I mean with that is that gunpowder started to spread, guns started to appear, some trains. Another effect of that is that magic is now spreading to non-magic users through mechanized magical weapons which use artificial mana to work. Weaker than true magic, but it does lead to normal people being able to use it. |

I know it's a little late, but I didn't find anything else relating to this RP on the forums, so I thought it best to ask. Nice, I like the sound of it, and I'm pretty sure I'll join in. |

Well, we're not exactly known for roleplaying, unfortunately. I'm one of the few people with an actual roleplaying interest and experience, but I spend most of my time on P2TM. As for roleplays, we do have a fantasy one currently underway, although it is in a little bit of an inactivity problem right now. You should talk with El Fiji Grande about it. |
