I feel guilty for disturbing the silence on this list. I hope
everyone is still around.
I'm looking for some collaborators to co-develop an RPG setting based
on mythic Rome and Europe in the 5th and 6th centuries. Its a concept
I've tooled around with for a number of years and, having just
shelved my most recently running campaign, I finally have the time to
give it some attention.
The general concept is that an ethereal reality coexists with the
mundane world. This second reality, the Netherworld, mirrors the
natural mundane world but does not bear the mark of mankind. The
inhabitants of the Netherworld are the anthropomorphic ideals of
animals, supporting the classic myths of sphinxes, satyrs and the
like. The Netherworld also bears the marks of an ancient
Atlantis-like civilization dominated by Minotaur symbolism. Some
artifacts of this civilization also exist in the mundane world and
act as gates. The crossover is subtle and unwary travellers may find
they have crossed over without realizing it.
I've done an extensive amount of work integrating the existence of
magic with real-world historical events, religions, philosophies and
the like. My goal is to develop the setting and make it freely
accessible via a website. The material will be presented independent
from any specific rule system and made freely available.
I've developed a concept of the website and published it for any who
might be interested. You can find the URL for it below. I really want
this to be a professional quality affair, so a fondness for history
and penchant for writing and detail are welcome attributes. If anyone
is interested, please email me privately.
