Hello, I am looking for players interested in playing a homebrew RPG with a fantasy setting inspired by Greek mythology. -System- Orbis Terrarum Orbis Terrarum is a game system which I wrote which combines some features from the games Harnmaster, 7th Sea, and Alterity. It is based off of d100 mechanics, I have introduced a number of things which liven it up a bit. I must confess that the game isn’t finished, I’m not sure it will ever be, but is in a totally playable state. I think the rules are fairly simple and I tend to run more roleplaying heavy. -Setting- Greek Mythology I want to take a step away from the classic medieval fantasy and play in a more ancient setting. My world his very heavily inspired by real ancient history, however, the fantasy elements are more directly inspired by mythology rather than typical fantasy tropes. I have basically rewritten history with the question, “What if all the myths and legends were basically true.” Also, I am renaming everything so that we can better make it our own. For example, I call the Greeks, Sparatians. This allows us to port over many Greek concepts without being constrained by the historical timeline. -Times- Negotiable Either weekly or every other week, on Fridays or weekends. I want to try and be flexible with this. I work a pretty demanding work schedule, so week days are pretty much out. I am an American living in Germany so CEST timezone. I can do late nights my time which is early afternoon in the States or stupid early my time which is late night in the States. I can be a bit more flexible on a Saturday or Sunday. -What I’m looking for- I like story telling and writing and I put a lot into characters and setting. I also want the game to be more narrative and character centered. In that regard, I am happy to make it a bit of a sandbox. If you want to spend your adventuring building a palace and managing diplomacy, lets do it. That being said, I GM best when I have a fair amount of player involvement. I try and take you to places that you want to go, but I only really know based off of your feedback. If you seem excited by a plot line, I know to flesh it out. If it doesn’t seem to land, I know to get rid of it. I also like to try and take care of minor plot lines between sessions. If one character is having a conversation with a particular noble and it doesn’t really pertain to the rest of the party, let’s see if we can roleplay it between sessions. Usually via text on discord. I am also happy to GM for an already established group that plays well together. Anyway, let me know if you are interested. I am obviously happy to share my PDF for the game and any questions you might have. At this point I am more checking for interest. If I get some feedback, I can hopefully begin running this game in a few weeks.
