I really fancy Hosting my own game in the near future, but if I was mulling over the idea of instead of running a by the book classic wizards adventure, something of my own design.

Though I will run a wizards game in the future.


Ok this isn't a developed idea, I have literally just thought of it. But the concept would be roughly 6 different, completely seperate characters, are all playing solo.

Maybe part of a competition, or some evil wizards entertainmant. Either way it is more of a battle royale in 3.5 terms. Each player would have their own solo thread, and could treat other players as they wished. This could mean befriending them and working together should their morals not clash, or simply battling to the death there and then.

Of course it would take some planning to ensure characters would not be thrown out of the running immediately by meeting each other, and there will be several NPC's also competing. I think I'll also think of a way to elaborate the playing atmosphere, by creating various oppourtunities and plot twists to liven the gameplay. So it would only be a simple search and destroy right at the very start, it could be a part of some higher plan...?


Of course this is literally mental diarrhoea, and this lacks any structure at present. But I would appreciate any help to develop this idea as I think it could prove to be a very enjoyable (and not particularly lengthy) adventure for those who take part.

In terms of ECL, to make things interesting I'd have to say something like 10. As im not really used to playing and dealing with characters much higher than that.


Ok im done for now :)

thoughts?

Keeping in mind that sometimes things can get a little hairy when you have characters interacting with other characters when each character has their own thread? Sounds like it would be a good game, with some ironing out...

Hmm yes its still very much a foetus of an idea, so give it a while and it will grow into something a little nicer to look at :)

I'd be interested in playing in something like this and even have a character concept I've been interested in putting onto paper and in a game. This seems like the perfect opportunity for this. }:)
