Welcome to the Game Room.


Here you will find my ongoing RPG campaign – in it’s full glory. If you are a player, this section will contain spoilers, so I advice caution before you read on.


    Well then, I guess you found me. Good for you. How long did it take you to figure this little secret out?

    Here you will find my expansive RPG that I wrote up for a couple of friends of mine. This took me several months to write up and I still haven’t completely finished it. As you read through, write down some of your own ideas and then send them to me. I will then entertain the possibility of adding your recommendation to the story. Who knows, maybe we can collectively improve this game, bringing it to a level that we never thought possible. I really did work hard on this project.
    And so, I really hope you enjoy it and that your players will appreciate how much detail there has been put into this game.

    Introduction


             Our quest wasn’t an easy one. We, the ‘True Atlanteans,’ the last of the Arian races, are now reduced to mere nomads in an unknown quadrant in space. We didn’t come to be here by accident. We traveled through time and space and colonize this forsaken and uncharted galaxy. We rely mostly on “borrowed” technologies, from the Naruni, Spluggorth, and the Warlock Federation before we came to be able to produce our own technologies from the resources mined from our new home worlds. Since the arrival of the mystical energy lines known as Ley Lines, we are now able to travel to new worlds through Rifts. There, we hope to eventual find a suitable planet to call home and start a new life. But for now, we must continue to borrow from someone else’s life. Earth, to our knowledge, was destroyed by a mystical eruption that tore Atlantis from the planet before its destruction. Earth now remains a long dead history, filled with inaccuracies and biased conjectures.

             We don’t speak of her anymore, of our lost home, our true origins. Her name is now lost in the annals of our most sacred tomes. However, we continue to pray, hope that we may one day again return to her shores, as a people and not as a fragment of a once majestic race.
             Our sin was that we didn’t take our plight seriously enough. We didn’t scrutinize over whom we let travel with us through the void of empty time. We failed to appreciate the hunger and inertia of the Nexus. We failed to weigh them as adversaries and it didn’t take them long to exploit our weakness.
             But that was so long ago. Our forefathers did not know to question. They did not know how to hate those that extended their hands in friendship. Their belief was that they were rendering a service and for their pain and efforts, their throats were slight as they slept. Oh how the mighty burn when we fail to appreciate the anger of their enemies. Where have all the good men gone?
             Lost to us they are and we to them and among the stars…
             God! Please help us and forgive us. We knew not of what we’ve done to anger you. But we plead to your benevolent ears and pray for your forgiveness. We pray that you deliver us from our hate, our pain, or loss…
             We were once your chosen children, before the Canaans and the Hibbits. We prayed fervently to your glory and in your honor. But we failed you and you found favor in the hearts of the younger tribes. Oh lord! What have we done to you that we deserved this punishment? How much longer must we suffer at your anger? Show us how we may please you again and find light in our hearts in your name…
             Oh lord, is there no love for the orphaned son?

    Background

    References

    The Five was material taken from the following site: Serenadawn.com. I needed information for the large corporations that built existing technology in the Game World. I had no desire to reinvent the wheel, so I looked around for gaming information that would suit my story. So, I came across this site and found a tonne of great information, which I’ve in turn used and in some cases manipulated, to suit my vision. I give props to the writers and creators of this site, for their attention to detail and focus to round out their gaming universe.

    The Planets section is a mixed of several gaming universes and systems. Some I can no longer remember where I took the information. However, here are a few of those sites. Serenadawn.com. and Pathfinder. Yet another Serenadawn.com product. I found the detail and information describing the various planets fascinating and complete. Where as I needed to find a gaming universe that allowed for system’s trading, where games would revolve around smuggling products to various planets. In this sense, if the players chose to play a Han Solo as the Smuggler type games, I had a system that would allow for it.

    The Technology Section is far more difficult to remember because I borrowed material from several sites. Most of which are part of the Rift’s Webring. I apologize but I can no longer remember where I found the majority of the information and it is likely that those sites no longer exist. However, most of which I have manipulated to better suit my system and my player’s needs.
