Subject: New Game Submission: Nephilim PBeM

Short:
  The "Surimsi" Nephilim PBeM RPG

Longer:
  A world-spanning Nephilim campaign (for as many players as I can
sanely handle), set in the modern day. The player-Nephilim will awaken
together in the midst of a crisis situation and have to safely extricate
themselves from it in the first sessions of the game; fuerther scenarios
will follow an overarching plotline, with many detours and adventures
along the way.
  Many and varied exotic locations in every continent will be featured
(no expense spared here, folks!) and a number of the GM's eclectic pet
interests will feature somewhere, at least as side-issues or background.
I am just as interested in catering to the players' interests too -
fascinated by stories of ruins in Antarctica? Tell ms before your PC
starts play and you may well get to visit there further on down the
storyline.
  I may also make use of a live interaction option (e.g. ICQ), if
everyone agrees, to resolve those more heated parts of the storyline
(such as combat). This is still optional for now, however.
  So come one and all! No experience with Nephilim is required, although
players with real-life roleplaying experinece will be preferred, and a
passing familiarity with the Nephilim game world will definitely be a
plus (while you're there at your browser, may I suggest my Nephilim page
- and the glossary attached to it - at
www.uq.net.au/~zzmbisho/nephvim.html as starting points?).
  Kick-off is anticipated to occur around Xmas 1999 - depending, of
course, on how keen the interest seems to be! Rest assured that I'll be
working to make the trip interesting and worthwhile for anyone willing
to truly participate and run with this thing. So... who's up for it?

Experience:
  I've been gaming since 1981. I refereed Traveller, MegaTraveller, etc
fro over 15 years, and have run AD&D and more recently Nephilim as well.
I have played in oodles of games, and have both played and run sessions
in several gaming conventions over the years. As far as PBeM's go, I'm a
bit of a newbie at this, but I'm no Net Virgin, so I anticipate few
troubles in getting this PBeM up and smokin'.

Yours,

Looks like a reasonable submission. Nephilim's a fairly obscure RPG;
it'll be interesting to see whether he can attract players.

I agree.  This looks like a good week, two decent requests.
