Fate/Labyrinth

Hmm.


If there aren't many people that will be joining, I may change the setting of this RP entirely into something that will fit low numbers better.


 
Would anyone be opposed to a drastic setting change?
 
Apocrypha style. You guys are all in one team against another team of servants controlled by me and maybe 3 others.


Conserves space and takes out a lot of hassle for managing player to player interactions.
 
@SephirothSage


Yep that is how it will go.


@Thinslayer


Basically the plot would be a rogue magus family manages to figure out a way to replicate the grail, so they withdraw from the Association and set up base at a remote location with their servants to try and finish the grail ritual. In response, the Association sends in a spy who manages to activate the grail's greater reserves to summon another "team" of servants which will be the servants of the operatives the Association/Church/People who want recognition.
 
....Hey Thin.


Should my Saber be on the PC side, or on the Rogue teams side? Hrm.


He /is/ kind of... Formatted like a Bossfight. But we also don't want to /entirely/ rip Apocrypha.

All of you would be on one team working together fighting against a NPC team controlled by yours truly and one or two other people so as to prevent confusion and clutter.


I also will make this so that there will only be one master per team to cut down on numbers since we are straining.
 
--...Ooh. That seems a bit.... worriesome. One Master? I hope we have some good bullshit excuse for how they have the Prana to survive maintaining more than one servant, jesus.

I'm going to go ahead and say that all the servants are hooked to a power source(the greater grail most likely) so that they can sustain themselves indefinitely(Your servant will be stronk). The team I will control will have many masters so as to make them weaker. I'll be controlling all the masters anyway so there's no player clutter there. Also gives you guys the option to kill masters so as to not make Assassin crippled.
 
I see. Interesting.


Makes sense. Sort of. (Oh god this is going to be terrifying.)


I take it our one and only master will be a PC, yes?

I wanna be master.
Alrighty then I'll save the master spot for you.


 
Should I create a new thread then with a new interest check as a means of a last ditch effort at gaining more players?
 
I don't particularly feel like playing in this setting, tbh. I think it could use an overhaul. What compels me to play is the desire to be in a version of the modern world where ancient heroes can visit and do cool stuff. The Fate universe has little to do with it, and I think we could ditch it without losing the heart and soul of the game.


 
The Fate universe happens to be a convenient way of fulfilling this dream story.


*How do you get dead people to see the modern world? Magic.


*Why would they come here? For the Holy Grail.


*Why would they interact with ordinary folks? Because they have to. Servitude.


There are other ways to fulfill this dream.


*How do you get dead people to see the modern world? Time travel.


*Why would they come here? A time traveler pulled them through.


*Why would they interact with ordinary folks? Because they need our help to survive this world.
 
This new setting does what you want far better though. If you were in the labyrinth then there would be no chance for modern interaction or anything like that. The newer setting would be centered around a city somewhere and have interactions associated with freedom of movement, along with the heart of the game itself being relatively intact instead of it being hyper competitive.

Oh wait did you mean you preferred the newer setting?
 
I want a setting that's compelling and gives me a good excuse to share the same space with King Arthur in my modern 3-bed 2-bath house.
 
I like Drama. Meaning. Emotional things. Day to Day life is interesting- but in an RP/Story, it's only purpose is to counterbalance and show what everyone is missing when their lives become super shitty due to drama/plot.
 
Alright, so I have a request for a setting more geared towards character interaction and another for intensive and impactful plot build up.


Also as per someone's request, I will be heavily cutting down on the character sheet's details.


 
Alright I'll just put up an OOC for the new thread for everyone still interested to move to if that is fine. The setting itself and everything else I will work on after I put up the OOC, as I feel that lingering on in this thread will be counter productive.
 
Yo I heard you wanted a guy that's completely useless.


Well, here I am :D


Hopefully I make a good one. Maybe I'll just look up shit and find some stupidly obscure guy so nobody can tell me I'm wrong ;~;
 
I'm going to go ahead and call off this RP and restart an entirely new one that may not be on this site.
