Modern GURPS sandbox city game (crime,horror,fantasy?)
Would anyone be interested in playing in a game where the PCs are all citizens of a growing metropolis using the GURPS mechanics?
I’m new to GURPS but I’d like to get a grasp on the rules, and I feel comfortable running a sandbox environment in a modern day city. This allows for players to be of various different backgrounds, have different goals, and create a familiar yet open environment that would allow for all kinds of stories and events. I’m thinking players could play solo or choose to interact with another , and I as a GM will build stories around who the players choose to create as their PC. They could be business owners, drug dealers, police officers, vigilantes, politicians, journalists reporting on the various events that occur in the city (perhaps even by direct action of the PCs), drifters, street racers, even special agents or other interesting characters.
I likely won’t allow any Demi gods, vampires, or other species beyond humans, and certainly not any magic or superhuman abilities, unless the entire group agrees that those types of characters exist in the city.
I’d be open to various different genres bleeding into the modern setting such as aliens, superheroes, war, supernatural creatures, magic, or even an apocalyptic event. It’s all up to what the players want.
I’d aim for everyone to be above average citizens, competent enough to make a difference in their immediate surroundings by themself but not capable of making city changing moves. However, I will reward engaged players by leveling them up quickly, which will open the door for plot hooks that shape the city in large scale ways.
I’d like this to be an active fast paced game, with engaged players who can check the game periodically, at least once a day. I am willing to relax on posting requirements though, especially during dialogue.
Rating would likely be ADULT
Is anyone interested?
