Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Hello. I've just discovered this long running RP, and am now looking around.
Just want to say I'm amazed at the sheer scale of things, as an amount of content and as an amount of time.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Seriously considering throwing a character in, but it's been a long time since I freeformed anything, and I'm not too confident in my ability to craft a complex personality, and not just a weird mashup of archtypes. |p

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
I think I started with just weird mashups of archetypes. Personality seems to have come later, usually, at least for me.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
"Weird mashup of archetypes" is kind of a running theme of the Nexus.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Trying very hard to keep up a good posting rate, with hopes of improving actual quality once I have the speed down.
EDIT. My post in the name change thread a while back went into effect. Still the same person.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Does anyone have any good resources for coming up with dungeons? I'm planning one at the moment, but I am... bad at this.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
If I might suggest one, there's https://donjon.bin.sh/. I'm currently trying to figure it out for a dungeon I'm running, because I'm bad at it as well (too indecisive)
Hope it helps!

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
The dungeon I'm running was pretty much 100% improv followed up by "if this is how it is, *why* is it that way?" - and then just keeping track of things I've previously said.
tbh I feel like that makes for a decent dungeon, so long as you keep track of things. I've previously used Google Spreadsheets and Twine and Notepad to do that, so that's fine. Twine is pretty nice.
These things won't help you come up with the dungeon, though. Just keep track of it.Favorite sports:

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
I use donjon too, only as maps. The details, inhabitants and treasure I improvise. Traps, too. It's not designed for something as free-form as Nexus, and I don't generally go for 'monsters' dwelling in such places. I swap them for bandits, cultists and so on. Or giant spiders and stuff like that.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Good to meet you, Cheshire wolf! Trog's Tavern is a traditional place to start, in the sense it's where pretty much anyone can go and people have been suggesting as a good place for first posts for years. Otherwise, there's the Black Dragon's Den and Dancing Fox Inn, both also public houses, or one of the cities.
We have a Discord, linked in the first post I think, you're welcome to pop in there and get to know us that way, and I look forward to getting to know you and interacting with your characters.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

A mysterious host has invited all interested in starting up a thieve's guild of sorts to meet with her at the Black Dragon's Den!

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Hello.
I have a roleplaying itch and few ways to scratch it. I was thinking of starting a character in Nexus. My current concept is to start with basic amnesiac swordsman washing up on a shore somewhere and go from there. Suggestions for where he could show up?

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Hey there!
If you're into having someone wash up ashore, your best bet is probably the Outside thread!

We have a Discord chat where most of our OOC chatter happens. Should be linked in the first post!

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
I think I'll make my guy be washed ashore on some Seaside island. I put a bio of him in the directory. I'm willing to hear comments either here or on Discord.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Hey everyone! I think I really want to try jumping into this with a Dresden-style Fae character!
So let's see... all I really need to do is post the character in the directory.. and then.. I guess wander into Trog's Tavern?
I have to admit, I've vaguely heard of Nexus, though.. I don't know much. I think it might be overwhelming... but I've got to give it a shot!Avatar by linklele!

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Hi!
tbh you don't really need to post the character in the directory, but it helps some people to do that. So, if that's what you want to do, then do it.
And, yeah! Trog's Tavern is a decent place. There's also a couple other places you can start, but Trog's is perfect.Favorite sports:

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
The King in Rags has built a court in the dismal swap he's occupied so far. I'm not sure how much use the thread will see, but that's where people will go if they need to speak to him in person.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
I've got an idea to revive a plot I had involving spiders and drow and things. Would anyone be interested? Note I am a slow poster who has life get her down often. But this is an idea I've held on to. I want to see where it goes.

Re: OOC 50: Over The Hill
Drow characters are not necessary! Being comfortable with helping them might be a plus. Or you could plan to doom them if you want. I don't know if any of you recall... last winter? I had some spiders in the sewers. I'll have to put some more around. Figure out how to get things rolling.
