Evangelion RPG concept

[GoatMan]

I've been trying out a forum and IRC based Eva RPG, but the group I was with previously just couldn't hold anything together. So, I'm curious if anyone else would like to get together for a solid Eva RPG using either a dedicated forum, or an IRC channel I have registered under my name.

The concept, much like a few other concepts, would be to wipe the slate clean, per say, and leave the assignment of canon/original characters as pilots wholly random. We can do canon characters, wholly original characters, or whatever one prefers. For amusement sake, though, I've been tossing the idea around of having Units-00, 02, and 04 eliminated before the plotline starts, and introducing the other models. This can be explained away as accidents in the testing phases, or possibly sorties that led to their destruction.

Anyway, if anyone is interested, just PM me.

I'll bite with interest....and more than a little ironic curiosity (I am currently running an evangelion game myself, we're only two sessions in).

I really would like to be on the player end rather than GM end though, so yeah, interested over here. =)

Hey boss,

So, you're already in an Eva RPG? I might be intrigued in joining that, as well. What's going on with it so far?

As for what I'm proposing, I'd be willing to throw together all the details as soon as we have enough people intrigued to get the ball rolling.

How many times a week? How long the sessions?

Yeah, me and a few friends started a Mekton Zeta (the system we're using) game with NGE as the setting. I kind of have 3 players right now, and don't really want to introduce more pilots, so don't have spots for more players, unfortunately.

Might have an opening later on, dunno really, but since we just started, still want to get a feel for current players' characters and the system we're messing with. It's really kind of an experiment.

Edit: We're also meeting on a pretty slow schedule, just once every other week, so when I say an opening later, it'll probably be a while.

How many times a week? How long the sessions?

I'd be open to once a week, every couple nights, or every other night, depending on what the players would like to arrange. Mainly, I want a schedule and a format that would be workable to keep people interested.

So anything more on this or just waiting out for more posts of interest? How many players are you hoping for?

Yeah, I'm still pretty much waiting for some interested people to join in. If we could get a crew of about five or six people, that would honestly be ideal. It would keep interaction simple, especially if it goes in an IRC format, as I was leaning towards.

Timezone? Or will this be purely be play by forum?

WEll, I talked to a few people I've interacted with in a previous Eva RPG by forum, and they're of the opinion the forum approach would again be best. As such, I've got three people for certain who would like to get this going about three weeks from now (once they're done with their spring term classes) in a forum environment.

If it's available here, I could start a thread, or there is another place that would be willing to host such a thread.

Okay, I created the gameplay rules and character creation thread:

Let me know what you guys think.

Gameplay starts May 14th, at midnight.

Still looking for more people to join. Gameplay has already started, and it always helps to have more players around.
