So, if any of you actually know me, you'll know my supreme love for Large-Scale RPG Games. If you don't, then know this; any Large-Scale RPG that would be going on, I want to join if it appeals to me. Really, I'm a guy who loves the presence of Magic and Technology in the same place. Arcanum, a dead RP of mine, was centered around that very thing.

Then again, inactivity is a real bitch and no form of thread necromancy can save it, now.
----------------------------------
So anyways, I've been having an idea for a while now. The RPG I have planned will be called Ex Machina. This RPG will be centralized heavily around the use of magic, as well as the inclusion of Technology. This RPG will be free-form, but will have a driving force behind it all.

Currently, I am in the Planning and Brainstorming portion of this. However, I would love help on it.

So far, I am trying to recruit people to help me with this idea. What I really want is to create a world that is enjoyable for all. Therefore, the current goals of this thread will be posted below. Know that these will change periodically as things are accomplished, so check this portion often.

  • Create a fair, but effective, Magic system.
  • Create the roles and classes of each character.
  • Make a fair way of levelling up characters.
  • Create a list of creatures that one will fight.

Below, I'll post things that have been confirmed for usage in this RPG.

Confirmed Additions
Updates
*UPDATE (6/17/12): Battle posts will be evaluated via Dice Rolls. A Dice Roll will be rolled from 100 sides, with there being a 60% chance for your battle posts being successful.

*UPDATE (6/19/12): Dice Rolls will be removed until effective ways to implement them have been created.
*UPDATE (6/19/12): Classes will be created, each with their own specific strengths and weaknesses.

ADDITION The RPG will include a Character Strength stat, which will be a measure of how powerful your physical attacks are.
ADDITION The RPG will include a Character Defense stat, which will be a measure of how well you can defend against attacks.
ADDITION The RPG will include a Character Magic stat, which will be a measure of how power your magical attacks are.
ADDITION The RPG will include a Character Speed stat, which will be a measure of how fast your character can move and react to things.
ADDITION The RPG will include a Character Utility stat, which will be a measure of how well your character uses weapons.

ADDITION All creatures will possess a statistic between 1 - 10, showing their prowess in each of the stats.
ADDITION All creatures will possess a Strength stat.
ADDITION All creatures will possess a Defense stat.
ADDITION All creatures will possess a Magic stat.
ADDITION All creatures will possess a Speed stat.
ADDITION All creatures will possess an Intelligence stat.

ADDITION There will be classes implemented into the system: Technician, Mage, Sage, Weaponist, Shaman.

Make sure to ask questions if you need clarification. Ask me via PM/VM, or just mention me within this thread. I would love to help out.
