Campaign Name: Across Gaia and Under Heaven
DM: terra9951
System: Not sure, but something rules-lite hopefully. Honestly this is the last thing I would hope be a deal breaker given this is an Rp-Heavy campaign, but I do wish for players that are flexible and open minded to ideas
Date/Time: Saturday 11am Pacific (though Sunday works too and time is flexible)
Time Zone: Pacific, but be sure you are open to chatting with group off-session times too to hang out. Chemistry makes for better campaigns!
Available Spots: 3-4
Preferred Player Experience: Anything, just be creative and willing to learn how to roleplay if you don't
Preferred Player Age: 18+ (dark matter will be regular enough to justify this)

Description: (Your characters will be pre-teens between 10-13 or so to start, think Stranger Things and such)
Imagine Pokemon Legends Arceus truly explored as a compelling setting... now add in youth protagonist horror/trauma and that is the angle I am looking at. A completely unique setting inspired by Yokai designs across the board within a medieval/spiritual fantasy world, where every mortal has a Spirit Companion bonded to them from birth (His Dark Material/Golden Compass kinda)

Distinct humans ranging from steampunk expansionists with Iron Harvest styled mechs, to ancient druids ranging from several cultures under the world deity, to hybrid spirits (basically cooler Genasi from D&D), and finally androids from the past... technically but you didn't hear it from me

Where does this story begin? Well, with you wanderlust in this endless world formed by the Spirit-Well

prime ermine
#

So many great choices

peak abyss
#

#

Hell ye

To clear the air this is not a "pokemon" campaign, yes it has designs used sometimes but there is no capturing, no battles like the games, etc, etc. It is a yokai campaign more so, which do happen to involve pokemon designs, just making sure everyone is understanding in that regard

#

@prime ermine @peak abyss Is that alright with you two?

prime ermine
#

So we'll be fighting the pokemon or it'll be more like a horror setting with their real sizes and lore? Cuz some are legit killers in the lore

#

Either way I'm down for anything pokemon related

midnight aspen
#

Yes and no, yes and no

#

It is hard to explain

#

TLDR, it is nothing to do with pokemon besides the designs for the most part

#

I can't join due to age but I just want to say that god this idea is genuinely just, mwa, perfecto

prime ermine
#

I'm down for anything

midnight aspen
#

Pokemon just so happens to be the most varied and diverse collections for a "bestiary" so I used it as a base

prime ermine
#

Can't wait to get stalked by the creepy bug pokemon

midnight aspen
#

Not all the yokai are pokemon designed, most aren't actually

Can you handle dark themes and tones? I am fine with people given they are mature and keep the rp in the rp, no irl politics and bs like that. I am 23 and when I was in high school... yeah, those people are fricken insane XD

Hey, I’m willing to join if you have space….

#

If not that’s fine

midnight aspen
#

I just posted this so yes there is space, I haven't even talked to anyone yet in call XD

#

Too bad there isn't a vc here to join... honestly if all of you are free to chat I can make a server and we can talk there in vc

#

@peak abyss@prime ermine@jovial eagle@tender roostThoughts?

prime ermine
#

That'd be pretty cool

tender roost
#

Sure!

prime ermine
#

Most the games I join have their server done or make one real quick for the game

#

I thought there was an option to make a group DM thing on here but I guess not either or I won't care

midnight aspen
#

There is, but I have to add everyone as a friend

For anyone wondering I am always accepting players to join my server and ask questions about the campaign, no one has been selected yet for the final group

stable shale
#

the concept seems like it'd be pretty cool
