Welcome to the Imagine Game!You must be thinking "What? How? Why?..."
So I'll explain (about the "why"):
I'm trying to write the rules of a role playing game (on table... not video game...
take a look here if you don't know) about the world of Animorphs. I already wrote few rules, and I'll show you later...
But for a RPG, if I want everybody - even people who didn't read any Animorphs book - can do the GM (Game Master), I should write everything about every races and every planets and every years of the story and... and of course you know Katherine didn't write everything ^_^
So... let's imagine!!!! We will imagine what could be each race, and make some descriptions of the planets... Not full and "closed" descriptions, but things we need for the game to work.
What do you need to play?
You don't needa be a rolist or a GM. It isn't useless, but you really don't need it.
You need: a brain, a computer, maybe the Animorphs books (or ebooks) to help you to remember the little descriptions Katherine could write about this or that...
If you wanna draw, to illustrate your descriptions, it's perfect ^_^
If you have any question about the game, please ask here.
I'll make thread for each race/planet/... who needa be imagined, and I'll put the links here.
Now, let's play!! (you can take your time ^_^ I don't need answers just now)
List:PS:
In the RPG, about each race will have a special power or can have one... I would like to make that each race is interesting and different to the others. Andalites and Humans will only have the morph power, Yeerks infestation, Hork-Bajirs strengh, Chees strengh and holograms, Leerans telepathy. Most of that races had good descriptions, same for their society, so we'll only have to complete them.
But for the other ones, we'll have to imagine what power they could have. Not too strong power (or they should have a "limit"). Funny or not. Useful or... not.
PS:
I wanted, maybe, make a race who can "control" a little the animals by their mind, just make their instinct stronger or slighter... For example, if a tiger wanna eat them, they could slow down it's instinct to make it feel not hungry. But I don't know what race could take this power... maybe the Skrit Na (that would explain why they like to have zoo with so many spacies from other planets), or Kelbrids (why not
)... If somebody wanna take this idea for a race...
Here the list of the races I'll include in the game (some that players will be able to play, some they won't):
- Andalites
- Humans
- Yeerks
- Hork-Bajirs
- Taxxons
- Chees
- Leerans
- Garatrons
- Helmacrons
- Gedds
- Howlers
- Iskoorts*
- Kelbrid
- Hawjabrans
- Ongachics
- Skrit Na
- Dayang*
- Nartec*
- Norshk*
- Mak**, Nahara**, Orff**, Sharf Den**, Sstram**
- and of course the animals from other planets that we saw and/or we will imagine
*maybe I'll include them, not sure
**I'll include them only if we have too many ideas and wanna add new races... here we have the names
But in fact, I think we won't need them.
