PbP: Hyperlight Echoes

By SavageBob, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

I mentioned this game in another thread, but it got buried, so I'm giving it its own topic.

The premise of this PbP game is that the PCs are members of a musical group that’s fallen on hard times. They're scraping by at the galactic fringe in the Corellian sector after their star performer has left after a bitter breakup. We’ll be using Genesys-style social rules to make performance scenes as epic as combat can be in more traditional games, and many different skills can be interpreted as usable in these scenes. But there will be plenty of other types encounters, too: combat, social, stealth, investigation, etc.

The band is currently pretty Presence and Intellect-heavy, so we could use a PC who focuses on Brawn, Cunning, or Agility. That might mean a burly roadie who also plays an instrument, a crafty guy who focuses on pyrotechnics, a driver who gets the band from point A to point B, or anything else you can come up with. (We currently don't have a Performer, believe it or not.) The only stipulation is that you’re a member of the band, and you have reason to be on edge due to the recent breakup with the lead singer (represented in at least part of your Obligation).

If this sounds interesting to you, I’m happy to chat more or to see your character ideas over at this forum: http://friendsandnemesis.000webhostapp.com/gaming/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=189&t=682&start=175 . The site requires registration, and folks have noted difficulties registering from a phone, so if that happens to you, try a desktop or laptop instead.

Be excellent to each other. And party on, dude!

We're getting the band back together!!

What an awesome idea....lol

Then again I'm in the game and just giving it a shameless plug

We may be full now. Hopefully our new player came after seeing this plug on these boards. :)

He did. :)

Mind I had heard about the site before, just never got around to registering over there till recently.
