Ok all I've been inactive here on this blog because I've become involved in a related Podcast started by a couple of friends of mine and anything that would have been on here is probably moving over there. Besides you get to hear me talk and just think how awesome that is.
This blog is going to undergo a couple changes, as indicated in the title of this post, and become more of me musing on working on a homebrewed RPG system. comments will be appreciated as to what I'm doing but as I've yet to really start work on it here's the very basic idea.
Setting: Relatively modern day but there are people running around with powers, kind of like mutants but in a more broad sense. It isn't a birth thing more of a gained ability.
So far I know of four basic types of characters I'd like to see go in there and they are.
Mage- Yes this is a typical wizard type character that casts spells. More broad in scope than the others but with weaker effects. They can branch out and work on a variety of things not related to the focused powers.
Esper- Forgive me I'm borrowing a term and giving away my influence here. These are more individually powerful, on the high end, than Mages but they will be focused on doing one thing; Pyrokinesis or Teleportation, either way they're very good at it.
Normal- Dude without any powers whatsoever and the majority of the population.
Nulls- These are a rare breed of people who can't use any powers and typically have very swingy luck either good or bad. Their main advantage lies in the fact that they can cancel any power used against them. Stronger nulls can negate powers used around them as well.
Well that's the preview, I'll work on the title and stuff later but for no; check out LastTimeonvideogames.com if you want to get more game stuff out of me and let me know what you think.
Hambone out.
