System: Dungeon World Format: PBP with IRC for OOC stuff Players: 5 or so Description: You're an inhabitant of a newborn, magical world that's still a dreamy haze of concepts, images, and ideals. You and your party members will stumble upon the first of the world's growing pains and thus start an adventure to shape the world in its growth. You choose, as part of your application, what sort of just-past-tribal-era societies are in the world and what sort of magics are part of it.

Game: Rise of the Gods System: Scion with some house rules Type: Chat Venue Website: https://www.landsasunder.com Players: we have 20-30 active players, about 10 of them are on almost every night. Description: Children of gods vs the Titans. The game has been running for over a year. Players have battled the Wyld Hunt running free in London, a zombie plague in China, the accidental summoning of Ymir, meteorites launched from the moon with atomic force, Ragnorak is currently happening, the home land of the greeks has been overrun by Gaia. Current character generation starts off at Demi-god level with 4-500 xp. The cool thing about our game is that this is all backstory. The current front runners (people who have been on the site since day one) are fastly closing in on Godhood. When a good portion of the player base reaches god hood we are going to shift the game forward 20 years. Then, new characters will be able to be scions of the old pcs. The shift is about 6 months or so away, but if you are active it won't be hard to catch up. For those that aren't familiar with chat venues here's how they work: There is a chat full of rooms where you can go In Character, this is also referred to as Coffee Shopping. This is actually where all the important things happen because you can plan and plot with the other pcs. You're even allowed to make rolls and we really don't mind if you adlib minor scenery things. STs will come on and run scenes. This is usually in the evening but there are forums where you can request certain scenes, and we try to announce in skype ahead of time. Alot of time it depends on how many people are on. We are good about accommodating late comers to scenes if it is thematically appropriate. So that is chat. Then there are forums where your character sheet is stored, and there are IC and OOC forums and where you post Xp and scene requests and bluebooks. Bluebook posts are for things your character doesn't necessarily need a whole scene to themselves for. i.e. Crafting a weapon, investigating rumours or on a more grand scale bringing vaccinations and medicine to the third world or cleaning up the site of a nuclear disaster. I am Eyflfla everywhere I go, question me on skype or the landsasunder chat. p.s. We could use some more Story Tellers too!

One of my initial picks disappeared between submission and the game starting and never posted, and another is unreliable, so I'm looking for 2-3 players to supplement the team. I would be looking specifically for Riot Officers, Recon officers, and Breachers. If none of that makes sense, it's explained in the recruit. Your characters will be introduced once the current players finish killing hiver-terrorists. Here is the game thread. Seriously, I just got us onto page 2, so not hard to catch up.

Game: Budding Heroes combat play test System: Budding Heroes Players: 2-6 (multiple scheduled groups) Format: Roll20, Skype (text is OK, voice is preferred) Description: Looking for players interested in trying out a new game; mainly testing out enemy balance and getting a fresh set of eyes toward the overall experience. Update: Just in case you didn't bother reading the game's thread because you don't have BH, it's worth noting here that everyone in the playtest is getting access to the combat rulebook for free - no or required. There has been enough interest to form three groups so far, and enrollment is still open for any newcomers. These groups each have three players; the Tuesday one will be using Mumble for the voice chat, the other two use Skype. All will still be using Roll20 for the actual gameplay part of the sessions.

These impressive persons are castaways from HMS Relentless, an indigo-sailed Imperial treasure galleon. She lies beached on a nearby tide flat that is shunned by the villagers, a place where the octopus folk gather to bellow at the comets...
