Two requests! Fable and Arkham City
From Reaver Industries to Fido's food bowl...
He's going to LOVE the taste of...
SKIVVY. Food with real person-ality!
I have an original character request in mind, who is a member of the household staff at Master Reaver's estate in Bowerstone. I am leaning more towards a female character, but I wouldn't say no to a male character, if his background/personality meshes well with Hatch.
Plot-wise, from the start Hatch's balverinism has been kept a secret from the general public, as well as within Reaver's household- but I've been wanting an OC, who perhaps is privy to this controversial fact. A balverine's hunger for human flesh is insateable, and relying on skivvy is better than arranging for a random citizen to 'disappear' from the streets.
Said character will need to be personally involved in the skivv/pet food department of Reaver Industries, and be responsible for its presence in Reaver's estate. As was discussed with our initial!Reaver player, he doesn't approve of skivvy being brought into the house, and least of all inside the kitchen. Hatch isn't solely responsible for his skivvy stock; he needs a friend, who's understandable about his... situation.
And so, I'd like an OC to whom Hatch can mingle with, more or less. A female domestic servant is preferable, taking into account the roles available that are necessary for the character's role. For starters, there's the basic kitchen maid, parlour maid, and between maid. The latter seems to be the best choice, but I'm open for ideas and brainstorming, of course!
I've done more than my fair share of historical research for domestic servants, and the concept and appeal is there, but the character is missing. Please help by filling in the role! Seriously interested and dedicated players only, please. Membership requirements and the rest can be read at hero_chicken .
In addition, I'm still looking for a Master Reaver. We allow newcomers to the Fable franchise; we've provided a complete Let's Play walkthrough.
Arkham City: an open-sandbox game. Spoilers under the cut!
I've co-founded an Arkham City game with two BFFS, and we're still looking for feedback, what people would like to see.
The game is currentkly a work-in-progress, but the basics are:
Arkham franchise canon only: select-canon from the comics is allowed on a case-by-case basis, and we emphasize that the game is not a comic-verse RP with Arkham City as the backdrop. There is no PBs, Nolanverse, Burtonverse, TAS, etc.
As an open-sandbox, as with our sister game Bone Orchard- plots are handled by the individual players. The staff will not hand out plots. It's up to each player how their chracter is involved with the rest of the cast, their ambitions, motives, plans, and the like. Their will be monthly events; food and med supply drops across the City; finders keepers. Character development and realism is enforced. No one can brush off such things like rare food resources as a trivial matter.
Sign-ups will be limited; we're not looking to gather a huge memberbase. About 20 players or so.
It is essentially a villains vs villains game. Not a Batman vs Villains, or Superheroes vs Villains, pick-a-side, etc! We're working out how Batman will fit in, though we doubt he'll be applicable. This also means no sidekicks, no heroic characters that'll save Gotham! Batman won't be 'Batman'; as seen in the prequel comics, he'll be masquerading as various thugs, in order to infiltrate Arkham gangs. He'll never don the cape, unless future circumstances absolutely require it.
We allow OCs, and we will be reviewing them carefully. No carbon copies of the canon characters, for example. We're currently debating whether to allow TYGER Special Forces, to add special kind of drama to the game. Invisible correctional officers does not sound appealing.
The game is set six months before the video gametime, after the prequel comic Arkham City #1.
We're keeping an eye on the recently released series, Arkham City: Unhinged, to see if it'll come into play.
