Use the pre-concept if you don't have a good idea of what you want to do but you wish to brainstorm
a bunch of ideas for others to consider. Use the concept layout if you have a more detailed
idea, just keep it simple so others can add to it.

Project Name: FWC RPG APP (tenative name)

Genre: ANY

Style: RPG

Premise: Used by players and a DM or DM's to Roleplay directly within the FWC site.

Concept: Years ago there used to be a free RPG system called WebRPG, it ran off of Java and had alot of connectivity issues, this would run in a simpler
                       format using newer web technologies like PHP 5 and MySQL. The concept is quite simple the entire thing would run in a browser, or it could
                       use a client/server model. It would also be adaptable so that any game system set of rules would be easily addable, per a plugin system. 


Programming Languages/script: PHP5/MySQL, Javascript

Time Frame: I hope to have the basic model running in less than a month.


Main Features:

  • Campaign system to allow ongoing games.
  • Dice system that can be customized for any system.
  • Can also use a diceless system for Free Form RPG's
  • Character storage for Players and NPC Storage for DM's
