I'm seeking a quality roleplaying game for a well established/developed character of mine. Medieval fantasy is prefered (although I could easily be talked into giving steampunk fantasy a try), with a mature or adult rating.  I'm looking for comradery, adventure, an engaging plot and some romance. I love banter between characters, pub scenes, and the chance to laugh but under the lightheartedness should lurk a serious and atmospheric story. I've had great success with this character in a solo game (sadly gone inactive) so would like to see if I can get lucky again but would also be happy to find a small group too.

Of course while having such requirements is all well and good, it's proven difficult to find a home for my character because he's, umm...  well, he's a chaotic good necromancer and adventurer. Not exactly a so-called 'white' necromancer since he does control the forces of the undead, but he does so from a completely different point of view. He sort of represents the power of Life over Unlife and is a would-be hero in many regards. He has a particular gift/power and he uses it to the best effect he can. He's also a genuinely nice guy, bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, hopelessly optimistic, a romantic at heart, fun-loving, healthy, and very personable. He's down to earth and has amazingly straight priorities. (He certainly has his fair share of flaws as well, but I'm trying to sell him here! ;)) He loves his life and tries to lead the best one he can, even if he does admit that some bits could have gone better. And that being run out of town on the end of a pitchfork as soon as anybody finds out he's a necromancer sometimes gets a bit old.

I'm requesting a free-form game for him because that's where my roleplaying roots are and also because I really hate trying to make character sheets for him. I have a very good grasp of my character's attributes, abilities, flaws, and limitations but he simply doesn't fit into any of the pre-existing boxes so finding a system for him is hard. That said, I'm not totally adverse to trying a system but I do find it can be difficult (especially when those systems often force an evil alignment on anybody who happens to raise the dead.)

As a player, I am very dedicated and dependable. Not all games work out for various reasons, but once I do find one that I'm happy with, I will stick around for years and can maintain a good posting rate the whole time.

Thank you for reading. :)

In the case of a D&D or Pathfinder game, a mid-level+ start would be best so that he's got some powers to play with.

Haven't bumped this for awhile. :)

Bump!

Did I mention this character is also a brilliant team player and always gives his all, sometimes with reckless abandon? More than once he has proven to be the most heroic and clearly good-aligned character of the entire adventuring party.

Just launched a new game where Necromancer is a playable class. Feel free to check it out.  It is rated MATURE.

Investigated it but no joy. Still looking! :)

In reply to PhatJackal (msg # 6):

I have found a game to occupy some of my attention, but I am really still on the lookout for one of those ever elusive long-term games that has a close-knit group of players who have so much fun roleplaying together that it's criminal. I want there to be an excited smile on my face every time I see that there's been a new post and I want to stay up late writing my response because I simply can't wait until morning. I want to earn the good-natured eye-rolling of my spouse when I spend most of the day grinning like an idiot because I'm thinking about the game. (Like this pretty much: :D :D :D)

I know you know what I'm talking about.

Still looking. :)

Hope springs eternal.

Another week, another bump.

I'm desperately looking for a good medieval/fantasy game for my own well established character as well. A shaman half elf. Free-form preferred, but her roots were in DnD. But I like heavy role playing and creative powers/abilities.

I'd be happy to talk to you if you find anything interesting and vice versa, as I'm pretty much looking for a similar type of game. Also, shaman and necromancer team might be interesting.

Contact me through Rmail if you find anything or want to talk more. I'm really open to anything new and just like making friends on here to write with. :)

I might be willing to... just give me a week or so to toss some ideas around in my head and figure something out. I definitely prefer freeform. rMail me if you have any ideas that you would like incorporated, and I'll see what I can do.

Little bump, just to see what else might be out there.

Now how is this for an act of thread necromancy? ;) I'm once again seeking a game for this character of mine. I'd been very happy in a solo game lasting nearly two years but it has since gone inactive with no indication of when it'll resume.

Bump.
