OOC: Ragarth and Rakeela – starting a World Tree RPG Group

[sythyry]

Hello!
This is posted for Ragarth:

Rakeela and I [ragarth] are interested in putting together a World Tree RPG group. Neither of us have used the system yet, but we both have source books demanding attention! Alas, we’re also both cursed with black-thumbs when it comes to GM’ing, and so we’re forced to stalk down someone else for that task. Additional players up to the prospective GM’s comfort level are in demand as well.

The ideal GM will have their own source book, be capable of running games on either Thursday or Friday evenings, and have an AIM account to make coordination easier (but not for the gaming). I can run a maptool server if that’s the GM’s preference, but any live-chat medium with dice-rolling capability (IRC+bot, Muck, maptool, etc.) should work fine. It’d also be preferable if any players have source books as well, since the system relies rather heavily on bookly materials.

Any prospective victims or Dungeon Gods can either respond here with contact info, send me a message over LJ, or email me at kokishin at.t gmail.com and include “[worldtree]” minus the parenthesis in the subject line.

I'd very much like to play. I'm not a terribly experienced roleplayer, but I've read all the source material, and can play any night of the week.

email is musteline@gmail.com, BTW.

Oh dear, that's one of my roommates. I'm going to be pulled into this, aren't I?

A healthy dose of doom layeth upon me, all because I brought my humble copy of the sourcebook home with me. Do you see what you've done? Madness!

... actually, I quite look forward to this. World Tree is so popular here that we now have two copies of the sourcebook for our home. I am quite behind on reading it; I suppose now is as good a time as any to catch up!


Somewhere, there is a major compliment here for your translator. I seem to recall it being adorned with sweets, along with a bound copy of Support the Hungry Writer to further his endeavors.

Bah at timezones. They're why I can't participate in this.

Actually, a bit of background here. Rakeela originally recruited me as GM for this, months ago. But I pretty much never see her any more due to the eight hour time difference, and while Ragarth wasn't involved at that stage, I'm pretty sure our schedules are mutually incompatible.

That said, if anyone in a European timezone starts making World Tree noises, let me know.

I am interested in playing.

Perhaps...

I'll throw in my hexagonally-distributed hat.

While I make no promises in advance, I'm interested in doing such a thing as well, and thus do I offer my prospective services as a GM, or yet another player if you already have someone in mind.

While I'm terribly shy about my contact information, I shall be sending an email to the address in the post, and I can be reached through my tiny little livejournal page as well.

I own a copy of the sourcebook, and run a World Tree game for my group in an on and off sort of way; due to the somewhat lengthy character creation, when players come and go (and they have, often) we tend to stick with the more easily rolled up systems, like Paranoia or Pathfinder.

So, if you still need a GM, drop me a line; so long as I can work out the timing, I'm in.

Yay! I'll talk with Rakeela. I sent you an email from my real email address. The kokishin one is my spam-catch.

I want to play! I have gone all the way through making a character before the game I was going to play got dropped. I would very much like to play, at least once. :C

Re world tree group.

[ottaur.livejournal.com]

I too am interested in playing if there is room for one more.

I have the rulebook and have played a few games at conventions.

Heads up for everyone. We have a GM now and we've been hammering out details.

He's sent messages to everyone here and those who have contacted me privately regarding recruiting more players. If you haven't received an email/message/psychic contact from him, sent me an email at the above-mentioned address with the [worldtree] tag. If you've sent me an email and I hadn't responded, that means I didn't get it so send it again.
