Looking for players

I have an idea for a second Altaia campaign, and I'm looking for 3, maybe 4 players who would be interested in playing.


  1. You can't be afraid of mechanics and dice; this particular idea I have in mind is going to work the magic system harder than my current games. I want people who are willing to understand the system and help me find the flaws as well as what's good.
  2. I intend to run alternate Fridays across from my existing campaign; I can possibly do alternate Saturday evenings if that actually works better for people. I'm not very flexible on this, I'm afraid.
  3. The campaign is intended to be epic, with a fixed final goal. I don't have a good feel for how long it will take to complete this goal, but it won't be less than 8 or 10 sessions, I'm pretty sure.
  4. Most of the characters have a couple of fixed attributes and everything else is flexible so that the players can have freedom in designing them; they must need to fit either a particular archetype or have something in particular that the campaign needs.
  5. One player will be a definite, chosen leader who is organizing and motivating the rest of the group.
  6. When we'd start would be dependent upon who joins up; if I get mostly people unfamiliar with my system, I would probably want to do some training first. Run some mock combats to help people familiarize themselves with their abilities.
  7. I am not averse to playing on the south side of the peninsula if more people are up there than down here; it depends entirely upon the locations of those who wish to play.


Interested? If so, drop me a note.
