It's 2 am so I'm keeping this short. I've been toying with the idea of DMing for a while now but have no experiance whatsoever. Unless you count entertaining my 10 year-old cousins with a game of DnD (soooo many fudged rolls).
I digress:
1) I've wanted to try RISUS for a while, it reminds me of Terry Pratchett novels and Parody movies (thus the reference to Get Smart)
2) I have an idea plus some basic plot/setting ideas for a troupe of secret agent/special forces saving the world from some bad guys.
3) Before I run it Live I thought PbP would allow me to proofread and make sure what I'm thinking translates to what I say coherently
4) SO if anyone is interested in playing some RISUS and laughing at a me as I fumble through a very cliche set of events, say hi.
Even if you're not interested: advice, ideas, suggestions, corrections are all appreciated.
Anyone who gets a really itch to spend their midnight oil and work tirelessly for hours to create some work of art RISUS character: this is probably not the game for you.
If however you spend five minutes to post something like Jack Blond then you may enjoy helping me in my first attempt at running a RISUS game.
Jack Blond:
Description: Think James Bond but blond and with latvian folk music skills. He wears several layers of suits to both stop bullets and to be always well dressed. He enjoys driving spy cars and shooting spy guns, and then after a night of heroically seducing female villains, he likes to kick back and play some latvian folk music.
Cliches: Spy (2), Heroic [3], Too sexy for his shirt (2), Latvian Folk Musician(1)
Hook: He has a dire (and I mean incredibly dire) fear of children younger than 5 years and 11 seconds, he can tell don't try and trick him.
The incredibly expensive and enourmasly long (ships in about 24 years) the
RISUS rulebook, study it well.
