Ok, this is how I think of it.

You are, who you make yourself. If you are a Dremora, who works for the Imperial Legion, fine. Just give a good reason

This is a free-for-all rp. By that, I mean your characters destiny is your own, with a minor exception. You must be, in some way, shape, or form, involved in what is happening in the RP.

Read Illusionary-Nothings rp guide if you are not familiar with the basic rules of RP.

This RP will start out form the point of when the Nerevar, who I will keep you all updated on its process , is becoming Hortator and the war chief of ashlanders.

You can start out ANYWHERE in Vvardenfall, be what ever it is you decide to be, as long as it isnt uber god guy. Work with Dagoth Ur, or be the agent of a small daedric cult.

Playable Factions


Fighters Guild

Theives Guild

Mages Guild

Morag Tong

Any of the four Ashlander tribes

Temple

Imperial Cult/Legion

Great houses (all five, but I suggest you are one of the three Vvardenfall settled houses.)

Claws of Union (Basically a werewolf clan in the Vvardenfall area. There main base is in Foreign Canton sewers of Vivect)

Any of the vampire clans.

Buoyant Armigers.

The Cammona Tong, (For all of you mob people, I thought it would just be nice)

Those are basically all the factions I can recall. Claws of Union was just a small werewolf pack I made up.

Ok, so for all of you Morrowind players, youu may recall, SPOILERS, that you had to go into Red Mountain alone, with no back up, other then sme summoned people and some people that follow you around somtimes.

So imagine that, there is a alternate Main Story, where instead of you being the Neravar, you start out in a location on Vvardenfall that you select.

Then, you go through the character customisation crap, your class, any unique. From there, your characters story begins, or at least the part we hear most about.

Now take that imagination, and put it into text, along with multiplayer. You have a rp.

So, this is it. If we get three people to come on and post there Character sheets, then we will start.

These have never gone too well, from my experience. Maybe you should narrow down the plot instead of making a completely free form RP. Including only a major setting and plot is easy and it still gives the Roleplayers room to work their creative energy, but open RPs like this can go into havoc. That or they don't draw much attention. I'd be willing to lend my creative insight if you wish to make a new RP along those lines...


Oh, a good example why these don't go well is... well, you'll have 0-2 people per faction. Most of the factions playable won't even be used :/

It looks like you need to read Illusionary nothings guide aswell. This doesnt really have a story at all, theres to many factions for it to be viable, and what would you have to do other than make you're way to the top? i imagine alot of lone RPing in this. As for the choice of using dremora for a race.. What? How? Why?

Read the guide dude.

Hmm... I could get the plot a bit better. It is basically Morrowind, but I want to see what we can make outta this. I think the reason I make these kinda RP's, is because I play on a RP server on WoW, and getting a good story just requires putting a few people togethor. So, I am not used to rping on the forums just yet :P

Just a hint, these threads don't do well, if you haven't gathered that already. I suggest coming up with a creative story and interesting and original RP elements, giving the players choice but not giving them total freedom. This is like your third fully open RP and next time I suggest the above.

Exactly correct.


This is basically another "vvardenfell! Do stuff now!" Rp where you throw a bunch of factions at me. You need a structure to the RP or this isn't going to do anything. Keep it simple, keep RPers together, and give them something to do. If you abide by these 3 rules you can make a good RP with just about anything.
