Right, I have some pretty firm ideas, and the story is shaping up nicely. What sorts of characters would be people be interested in playing? There's plenty of opportunities, and lots of room for ideas and suggestions - Gentlemen, Commoners, anything... [Read More]

Van Helsing is always the first comparison, but i'm hoping that the plot, which is coming along nicely, and the feel won't simply be 'Van Helsing'. I'm hoping to get a bit of a swash-buckling, Errol Flyn feel to things - except with Vampires. :)... [Read More]

That depends. How Van Helsingesque can I make my character? Aside from the working for the church part, of course. Well, there's no problems with making him Van Helsingesque... Just so long as he isn't called Van Helsing. :) Although, the Church is... [Read More]

Would anyone be interested? I've got a few ideas, but i'd like to see if people are interested in this sort of roleplay first. So far, this is what i've got by way of a teaser. January 12th, 1792. Vienna. A major scandal has occurred. The grave of... [Read More]

While i'm not entirely sure what to make of the situation, and am currently siding with the 'against' camp, I think that 'Holocaust' is too strong a word - It might not be, but it seems a little premature to be labeling it as such.... [Read More]

read. Question, a dead man can't sell a commission, nor can it be assigned in a will. Shouldn't this have been given to him instead? Perhaps I am wrong, but I know that most men who earned higher commissions did so in this manner. I'm no expert on... [Read More]

Meh. I have to reconcile this with the fact that they gave back much of the territory they captured during the Six Days' War. Not saying you're wrong, only that it's difficult for me to take things at face value. I agree, but I like to think that i... [Read More]

But that is what it is. Israel is responding in force. They have been trying diplomatic solutions for the last year or so. Now they're pulling the plug and taking out all-stops. Hamas/Palestine might be more inclined to listen to diplomacy if Israel... [Read More]
