Born in the badlands between fragile pockets of what passes for civilization, you have adapted to survive the caustic plague of Dust that relentlessly wracks the world. You are a Duster, carrying a six-iron on your hip and flying an airship through the choked skies between settlements, keeping them connected at any cost.

  • I am asking for a daily posting commitment for this game as a general rule, with the understanding that posting might be less frequent on weekends and holidays. Meatworld being what it is, this generally averages to 3-4 GM updates per week.
Note: if 24-36 hours have gone by since my last GM update, I may post a new update, even if all players have not posted, to maintain momentum.

Post Absences

  • If you will not be able to post, for whatever reason, please ping us in OOC if you can so we know what is going on or post to the Absences Thread (I pretty much check that thing every time it lights up).

Post Formatting

  • Please use a header at the top of your IC posts that includes at least the following information:
Character Name | Parry X | Toughness X (Y) | PP (if applicable) Cur/Max | Bennies X
  • If you are addressing another PC in your post it is helpful to bold their character name as well so it stands out for them.

PVP[edit]

< < < Back to Top

While there is the potential for a fairly significant amount of player vs player conflict in a game like this one, I prefer not to run games that lean heavily to that assumption. Games like that simply do not need a GM, and I would much rather spend my time running games that do need a GM.

For reference, what I consider PVP basically amounts to this:

If an action would require dice to affect an NPC, then it counts as PVP if used against a PC

So disagreements, trash talking, indirect actions that might affect another character but aren't made directly against that character are all potentially on the table with the stipulation that if something just makes the game not fun for someone that we respect that and steer clear.

If you want to do something that directly acts against another player's character, proceed based on the following criteria:

Unilateral Permission: The other player agrees to your action. No rolls are needed. Just RP it out.
Limited Permission: The other player doesn't agree that it is an automatic thing, but does agree to let the math rocks decide. Roll it out.
Declined Permission: The other player does not agree to PVP. Move on with something else.
