08-20-05, 11:01 PM The world after the Apocalypse. All divine powers are in the air and all the powers have been absorbed by every human, anyway, the planet itself is against all actions that humans took after they got their powers, and Father, the maximum authority that commands the humans (the fittest) is getting older, he's going down, he's Ill and about to die, the planet decides that It's time for a counter attack, dangerous creatures emerge from trees, and from the ground, devastating natural disasters strike very often, and plagues and diseases are killing the human kind... And as father's last will, he order's to strike back at nature, the planet.

The strongest men around the world were summoned to strike back, eliminate the creatures, use their powers to stop the natural disasters, and finally.... eliminate the planet's soul, its essence.

Some people notice that the planet might die if they take such actions, and that surviving the apocalypse and absorbing the divine powers is killing the planet, and they ask the people in charge that if they can stop using their powers, they refuse and start training the army that will stop the planet.

As the men who noticed what would happen if the planet's soul disappears, create an army of their own, to stop the other army.... and the planet start taking bodies just to modify them to create its own army, a wild army. And after a few years, humans started mutating, gaining physical advantages, changing their shape, new races appeared, and a whole new world was built... just to be destroy, and who's side will you take might change everything! Or nothing….

20 years later cities were rebuilt, new entities were revealed and technologic advances were going slow, this new era is a time of war, a dark time, this new era is… The new age dark times. The world has new creatures, new races, new cities...... (NEW BATTLE SYSTEM) I'd refer to this world as a D&D and Magic: The Gathering expansions.

08-21-05, 01:55 AM What about the twist of the apocalypse having missed some people ( making them oblivious to it ) that would make them probably technologically advanced, not naturally as tough as those in the outside world. Technological advancement might allow for bloodlines projects to be used to create a race that appears weak but is strong in many ways. I guess say people living in a place like that might hold the secret to keeping the planet alive and peaceful, the same key being a dual edged blade that can save or destroy both sides.

Weilding such a power would warrant their exile (probably self-exile) from society in the distant past to avoid being mixed up in the complications.
The Sith
08-29-05, 03:47 AM or what about interdimensional apocalypse which totally mixed thing up?Like having Caesar and Sauron it the same world? :P
Jeweler
08-29-05, 04:07 PM That sounds like an interesting campaign and a completely different one sense this is D&D and Magic, not LOTR unfortunately. Although good idea The Sith! I like the apocalypse idea dude, its awesome. Just one thing, what type of apocalypse was it a natural one or something that man did? I like the Nature fights back idea.
Luigi_l5r
08-29-05, 08:19 PM That the world started all over again, and it's being rebuild, new cities, new races, less people, new culture= NEW GAME, It can have a new battle system combining Cards and Dice, Books and Cards, Interactive Story and Cards, you get what Im saying?
Jeweler
08-30-05, 09:46 AM Ok i get it, so basically the world went "This is not the way it should be!" and did a giant renewal, cool! I like the cards and dice idea that sounds like it would be fun, maybe if we got this finished then we could start looking to make it into an RPG by its self that would be a cool idea, i would buy. Cards and Dice, haha, CD, thats wat it could be called!
Luigi_l5r
08-30-05, 08:12 PM So... you have your Soldier, Let's say it will be called "Basic Soldier" (1 white mana) so you get it into play, right? Lets say it has the ability "Tap two white mana to be overlayed by a Paladin" So you look for your deck for the Paladin card and then you overlay your Basic Soldier. And the paladin has a special ability. Do you get what Im saying? And then you would have like different combos, just like the "Dragon Colors" Idea (which is an amazing one), so it looks like a regular magic card, except for the overlay thing, right? But best new part is that you actually fight on a board, using miniature D&Ds or something but on a board, and you roll a 20 sided dice to choose a soldier's movement when you get it into play, and you can move that numer of squares each turn. Now about the spells and crap, they will al be D&D's spells and weapons that you can equip or be casted by your soldiers. Now about the monsters, there will be special GM's Adventure theme decks, and they will have monsters, soldiers (weak, strong and avarage), and two new types of cards: Weather cards, they choose weather or natural dissasters or something like that for example: "Thunder Storm: Place 5 tokens on different squares, each turn deal 3 damage to the unit in that square", and the Difficult Roll cards, they act like instants, if a GM's creature is being attacked, he may use for example this: "Quick move: Target attacking unit rolls a 20 sided dice with a difficulty of target's strenght +5, If the roll succedes target unit deals the damage".
Luigi_l5r
08-30-05, 08:33 PM OK that was just the battle system, I don't know if you like this idea, if you don't just tell me and I'll remove it but, that was just the battle system, you enter battles while playing as a common RPG, making it avible to use books, and play adventures, or create your own adventures. Books would have the rules, and Suggestions for the GMs about how to create a cool adventure and books about spells, and imagine this: Every book comes with a deck about the book, like: A book about monsters comes with a GM's Monster Deck (NOTE: MONSTERS ARE ONLY FOR GMS, AND THE SAME WITH WEATHER AND DIFFICULTY DICE ROLLS) and a book about weapons (like how and when to use them), with a weapons deck, but not common weapons, special weapons it will be,(This one could be bought by both, GMs and players) How about that?
Jeweler
08-31-05, 02:12 PM That sounds like an awesome idea, but where is the leveling system, u kinda need it, maybe not depending on how you work it but most likely you will need something to simulate it. I like the overlay ability, they should put that in MTG, hurry before anyone else does tell the MTG people about it and trademark it. I like the battle system, the movement system needs a little balanceing, maybe it starts off as 1D6 and you get bonus and minuses from armor and spells and stuff like that. Dude you should make this an actual RPG this would be awesome to see done, ill help if you decide to work on it. How would yoou do equitment, the DM plays a town card, you would have to put in a new mana named money.

Small Town
Terrain Land
:t: All players search through there deck and find equitment cards with converted money cost 4 or less. (Not total cost of all cards put together but individually)

Forest
Terrain Land
:t: All creatures that are green gain a +1/+1, all creatures with forestwalk gain +2/+2.

Sounds like a good idea, but if your not goin to work on it let me know cuz i want to make it work, it is an awesome concept. Now getting WOTC to back it is another story, but if we get there then we will deal with it.
Luigi_l5r
08-31-05, 02:59 PM Good point, let me think of something, Lets work on this, but we need 2 more people, I'll get one, you get the other one, We should deffinitly work on this as a serious project, if you have msn add me: salchicha121@hotmail.com
Luigi_l5r

the_one_true_shea
10-07-05, 03:51 PM Luigi_l5r said something about an "overlay" magic ability.

This intruiges me, what if the overlay ability was defined as a sort of enchantment/equipment?

That way an overlayed character can be "lost" with a disenchant/disarm...

do they have this card in the new magic?

------------------------
Disarm :r::r:
Instant

Remove all equipment from target creature.

10-07-05, 04:02 PM OK that was just the battle system, I don't know if you like this idea, if you don't just tell me and I'll remove it but, that was just the battle system, you enter battles while playing as a common RPG, making it avible to use books, and play adventures, or create your own adventures.

You, my new friend, have a mind made for marketing!

Each book comes with the pertinant cards? :D I like! :D How about every pack comes with a character sheet for one of the major NPCs?
Luigi_l5r
10-11-05, 01:19 PM I don't see why not, but.... (for me there always is a "but") The books (at least the one with all the basic rules, and the battle system,like a player's handbook) would come with a character's sheet, which al RPG books have, that would make a succesful rpg book, by having the basics and our own story, important characters, and maybe a little adventure of our own

10-12-05, 09:44 PM Like a booster pack stuck in the back like the phb had that cd?

10-12-05, 10:45 PM No, like a regular rpg book with a sample of a character sheet,

12-14-05, 01:04 PM Hey people, I need Ideas for the races, Are we gonna use the races that we already know or create new ones?
the_one_true_shea
12-30-05, 09:40 PM I think the races we have are pretty good. From jerliks, to Virix, to Kaburi.. I think they are cool! The more we work with them the more fleshed out they become.

Brknlf would appreciate (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=255957&origin=) using the already created races. If you have a great idea for another race, dont let me stop you from starting a thread and commenting on my summary.

But just for cards and stuff and fluff - use the old made ones. It'll make more people happy.
Luigi_l5r
03-25-06, 04:12 PM Aight, Im back, full of ideas with a brando new system so if you want to work with me email me at jl_l5r@hotmail.com or jl.toledo@gmail.com
