[Interest Check] Fate/Requiem

[Bootman]

Name: Fate/Requiem
System: Scion or Mutants and Masterminds
Themes: Collaborative story telling and heavy PvP
Players Needed: 7~14+1(?)
Post Requirements: Once every two days at minimum, unless warning is given

1: What is it?

Fate/Requiem is a story telling focused adaption of the Fate Series, primarily focusing on the tone of Fate/Zero, using either M&M or Scion for the system. It will be entirely PvP with virtually no encounters with violent NPCs that could pose a threat to the players. However, things will be kept friendly with a combination of shared information (Trusting the players to separate character knowledge of player knowledge) and agreed terms to create engaging scenes played out with the mechanics of whatever system we happen to choose. It also takes place in New York.

2: Why 7~14+1(?) players?

Seven is the minimum number of players to start with, as that enables all those involved with run both one Master and one Servant. As we add more players, those prone to posting more often will keep both their servants and masters, while those with less time or inclination to post will lose one of those slots. Of note, if a player is interested they may play the Overseer, that is the +1. I will not force anybody to take that role and it is available to the first person who asks.

3: Well obviously I want to play. How do I get started?

I'm glad you asked! At the bottom of this post will be a list of things I will ask you to respond with. Once the final number of players is locked in, I will randomly decide which player who controls a servant gets which of the Seven classes. Masters will get to choose which of the available servants that THEY DID NOT MAKE who they want to be their Servant. If they do not care, then Servant-Master pairings will be decided randomly. If a player who controls a Servant does not want a certain Master, just say so.

4: Okay sure, but what about character creation?
I have custom rules for each system to help bring them in line with Fate, including different character Requirements for both Masters and Servants. After you are assigned a Servant class, you will be totally free to choose which historical or mythological figure you feel meets that class's specifications, and I will be the final judge of if an ability or concept is wrong for the setting or too overpowered. I will allow any homebrew and will even break rules at certain points, but this is to create a more entertaining experience. For the same reason I will shut down anything even if it is perfectly legal in the system. Remember, I'm an entertainer first and a GM second.

[Throndir]

-Name: Jo
-Preferred System: M&M, since I'm more familiar with it. Up for learning Scion if it fits better.
-Preferred Role (Master or Servant): Both
-One or Two characters: Two. Up for 1 if there's not enough slots. Like if you happen to get a ton of players.
-Questions/Suggestions/Concerns: None

[Burdenking]

-Preferred System: Mutants and master minds, though like jo, I'm capable of learning to get the feel right.
-Preferred Role (Master or Servant): Both

[Fellow Rabbit]

-Name: THE GLORIOUS JAMES CHUGS PECKE / TheChugsBoson
-Preferred System: I don't think I've played either one, so I guess whatever is the more popular of the two.
-Preferred Role (Master or Servant): Probably servant because I like doing fighting, but I'll do whatever is needed at the time.
-One or Two characters: Most likely just one. I wouldn't be able to keep up with many more at this point.
-Questions/Suggestions/Concerns: My only problem would be posting frequency. There's nothing wrong with your minimum. In fact, I think 1 post every 2 days should be expected of any roleplay. I'm just not good at keeping up all the ones I'm in at once. Most likely I'll probably end up watching the roleplay from the side and then joining into it when I'm sure I can handle it. Either way, I can't wait to see how it turns out!
