serious RPG I ever had, and to be honest I have missed it. But my players
weren't particularly charged about the combat system it used. It's been
awhile since those days, we've graduated to the Storyteller system, and now
I am trying to get them interested in Shadowrun. Well I have had a few ideas
running around in my head for sometime, and I like to use alternative
campaign settings (as you all should have seen with my Shadowrun of the
Living Dead posts). Well I wanted to do so many things and have the players
use the same characters (or the same independent troubleshooting agency that
hires out to Corps). So something got me to thinking about gods... and the
idea of adapting some Torg ideas became a complex solution to my problems. I
used to love to have characters jump into new worlds that they had no idea
what it was like. I could just let my imagination run wild... flat worlds...
low tech worlds... worlds where the sun went through the planet... all sorts
of things... the laws of physics were not always the same... I missed that
free reign on my imagination. Guess what? I am about to start some stuff up.
I am going to break this project up into several sections, so that I do not
get off into something that I really don't need to (my mind wanders a
bit...). But these are the sections I am going to work on:
1.) Planes: This would discuss the nature of Planes, how different Planes
connect, The different Axioms of Planes (i.e. the Tech, Magic, and Other
Levels of the Plane), and how Planular Constants work (the miscellaneous
laws that govern the Plane).
2.) What gods are: This would go on to say exactly where gods fall in the
scheme of the Universe.
3.) Divine History: Pretty much explains where they have been and what's
going on with them.
4.) Godly Abilities: What gods can do.
5.) Gods as Characters: Introducing gods as characters for players to run.
As you can see I am going to a little busy. Some of the ideas I think I have
aired out here before, but I am going to try to polish things a little bit
and pray it don't get erased like past projects.
