Re: The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
If you'd like to, go ahead. It would certainly speed things up once the actual game thread gets posted. Your character sheet should include sections detailing your character's physical description, their personal history, any skills or traits not explained by the bio (although ideally, all of them s...

Re: New and Ready for Corruption and Insanity
Hello there. If you're still looking for a game, i've got one set in 1920s Australia all planned out. It's played using a statless system, so it wouldn't really teach you how to play, but it may help if you're looking to jump right in, and it could help you get into the CoC mindset. I play both D&am...

Re: Character concepts and out of character discussions-
Here's the character sheet. I trimmed it of most Vietnam-related info. There are 2 issues though; I need him to speak Roma (it's a Slavic dialect, so he can also understand Russian and other similar dialects) and have at least a bit of acting ability, and so I've reserved 67 points to devote to thos...

Re: The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
It's still on, and I would love to have you. I would suggest you choose the reporter, if only because the "Crocodile Dundee" Australian has become something of a stock character in CoC. That's just my 2 cents, though, choose what you like.

Re: The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
You mean the Existing Games thread? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's a no-no since technically the game doesn't exist yet (isn't an official game thread). I'll be sure to pounce on any new players who post, though.

Re: Character concepts and out of character discussions-
Ilja sounds good. Is there anything about him I need to know before I come up with a backstory and roll stats? I read the story so far, but other than creepy eyes there's no important info I recall. Permission to go nuts with it?

Re: The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
Lovely. If we can get two more people involved, I'm ready to start.

Re: The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
Oh, I see. Well, initial knowledge of the Mythos should be low to nonexistant. I'd prefer a fairly even mix of investigator types. However, since you would be the first person, you would have free license to choose whatever type you would prefer. If you're looking for ideas, maybe this will help; th...

Re: The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
Renard: As of yet there's nothing you need to know to play. Knowledge of Australia, the 20's, and of course the Mythos would help, but aren't necessary per se. The sourcebook Terror Australis has a lot of good information on all three, but it's somewhat difficult to find. However, Australian history...

Re: Character concepts and out of character discussions-
Hey, is this still accepting new players? If so, I'd love to join. I could take on an abandoned role or create a new character myself, whatever would work better.

The Australian Experiment (Queensland Cthulhu)
Australiais, in my opinion, the single most underused settings for CoC. To the South lie the Mountains of Madness. To the East, the single largest coral reef on the planet. To the North lurk the cannibals of Southeast Asia. Past the outskirts of the cities, there are vast, almost unexplored wilderne...

Stranger in a Strange Land
Iä Iä, brethren. I'm long-time roleplayer (D&D and CoC) and GM (just D&D so far) both real life and PbP. I am interested in trying my hand at being a Keeper, and also introducing my own personal prototype role playing format (best described as d20 without stats or dice) to your lovely forum....
