LFP - Brand new TTRPG designed specifically for Open World

Death and Taxes RPG In the land of Death and Taxes, only 2 things are certain… Welcome to the TTRPG specifically designed to be an Open World game. &nbsp;In D&amp;T you can go and do whatever you want. You can be what you want and you can learn whatever you want. &nbsp;In D&amp;T you are not restricted by your class or your character choice, only your abilities, and even those can be changed simply by doing. &nbsp;Need to get stronger? Go pick up some rocks or chop some wood. Want to get smarter? Better start thinking! Key Points A game designed specifically for a Open World and Living Community No town NPC’s Character Death is permanent Characters will die of old age. &nbsp;Once a character hits maximum level he will begin to die. Life after death including the spirit world and reincarnation Learn skills by figuring them out and doing them or from other Players. Characters can level up with professions. Players can issue quests for experience towards leveling up.. Merchant shops built and run by players. Few existing items, everything else made by players. &nbsp; Main Ideas Give players the feeling they are affecting the world. Focus on Character, not gear Players are actively involved and thinking from Character Creation to Trade skills to Combat and Warfare. Make the game what you want. &nbsp;If a player wants to play a game about being a fisherman, he can learn to fish, fish, and sell fish, and level up like that.

The game is ready and we need testers!&nbsp; We will be starting out testing Tonight at 6PM and we will have games running for the next 3 days to work out some bugs etc.&nbsp; After that, depending on interest, we will keep going with regular weekly games.&nbsp; Join us on the forums and on discord today!
6pm what time zone? What system will you be using for this campaign, and how many people do you need?
Hello! Time is 6PM CST.&nbsp; The game is a unique system that I am currently building that is designed for to be a more open world game.&nbsp;&nbsp; Check out the forums for info about how it's going to be played.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="http://deathntaxes.freeforums.net/" rel="nofollow">http://deathntaxes.freeforums.net/</a>
It certainly looks unique. However, I notice that you lack a lot of classes that are listed in the character creator.
Do you have other players that will be testing this? I don't know if I will be online tonight to test it, but the concept is certainly interesting enough.
Yes, it's looking like we're going to have about 4 people tonight.&nbsp; I'm going to try and run games tomorrow and Tue. as well.&nbsp;&nbsp; As far as the character classes, those 6 are the base classes which will give you access to a few special abilities, everything else you will learn in game and the only requirements are usually your ability score levels.&nbsp;
When is tomorrow's game taking place?&nbsp; In order to create a character, should I copy the sheet and edit it myself?
Tomorrow will start at 6:30 CST For the sheet, yes copy it over and edit the xls the post to the forums, the PDF is being worked on.&nbsp;
I'll see if I can make it. How long did you run tonight?
What exactly is the format of this game? Play by post?
@Will P. Our first game went from 6:30 to 9:10 with a 10 min break.&nbsp; There were 4 players.&nbsp; We were able to get 2 days completed.&nbsp;&nbsp; @Prons We play the game live in Roll20 and try to get through as many in game days as we can.&nbsp; We will be playing again tonight if you want to sit in.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Today is the last day of our 3 day Beta Launch Party for Death and Taxes.&nbsp; We'll be starting the game at 6:30 PM CST so check out the game page, hop on the forums, join us in discord and have your character ready for game to start tonight.&nbsp; We'll see you there!

It's now been 3 weeks of D&amp;T Beta and the game and community are progressing nicely but we'd still love to have more players.&nbsp; We are looking for 3 or 4 more regular players for games on Wed at 6:30 CST and Sat at 4:30 CST plus make up sessions in between.&nbsp; We're having a game tomorrow so come and check it out!
