The Adventures of the Audacious Septet

The Quest for the Golden Bath of Nyame

It is the 19th century and the Industrial Revolution has taken the world by force! Steam technology is steadily improving by leaps and bounds! The world is full of inventors and adventurers, of military geniuses and hopeless romantics! Anyone who is brave and foolhardy enough can earn a place for themselves in the wild, dangerous continent of

Legend has it that there exists, nestled in the Gulf of Guinea, a veritable Fountain of Youth that bestows not only strength and vitality, but enables anyone who partakes in its precious waters to seize complete hold of their destiny! The power of these sacred waters over wealth, fortune, and fame have been lusted after by many a traveler, but only a few will succeed in retrieving the priceless waters of the GOLDEN BATH OF NYAME!

We join the Audacious Septet now as they venture into this treacherous land, seeking adventure and excitement, fame and fortune, but above all, the GOLDEN BATH OF NYAME!

We Join Our Heroes Now...

Rules

1. A sense of humor is required; silly things will happen! Just roll with it as it comes!
2. No computer talk in the rp, which means no saying "u" as a substitute for "you" et cetera. That's fine in the comments though, but we might end up hating you.
3. RP is to be done in STORY FORM so that it reads like a book. Past tense.
4. No wise guys who know everything. Everything you read in the story part of this page your character DOES NOT KNOW until your character is INFORMED by SOMEONE.
5. Cussing is not allowed, that's just lazy roleplaying. But swear as many oaths as you like, such as "Great Scott!" or "Jesus wept!" The more creative, and the longer the oath, the better!
6. Never get lazy and just say..., "and... stuff" and things like that, FULL OUT descriptions. Finish what you started.
7. Always stay in character, no OOC comments in the description or in parenthesis anywhere in the RP
8. Check your spelling. If you make a mistake and notice it later, going back to fix it is OK. Little mistakes are no biggie, but things you do repetitively get annoying.
9. The low limit to an entry is ten words. No less than ten words, but you can go as high as you like.
10. ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY NO POWERPLAYING! EVER!
11. You don't RP, you don't stay.
12. THIS IS A STEAMPUNK ROLEPLAY! You should stay WITHIN THE GENRE, which should be fairly easy because it's such a broad-spanning genre. What is steampunk?
13. Because this is such a large RP, and because the players live in such different time situations, each player is restricted to five posts a day to avoid running too far ahead and leaving anyone behind. (Thank you, [Jeesum Crowe] :) )
14. Bilbo Baggins! :D

2009-02-24 [Pnelma Tirian]: Welllll

there will be seven main characters, and each episode will have cameo's. :D I am also looking for ANTAGONISTS, because I think that would be a lot of fun to play. ^_^

2009-02-24 [Nite_Owl]: Okay, deadline it is. I'll try to have it up by tonight, maybe tomorrow :)

2009-02-24 [Trennas]: certainly is ^^ ooh, that reminds me, could you give some more details on when in the 19th century this all plays? :)

2009-02-24 [Pnelma Tirian]: It is the beginning of the colonial era in Africa, if you're asking about the political climate. If you mean where are we technology-wise, keep in mind there are derigibles and biplanes and sky pirates and ether-based weapons. :)

2009-02-24 [Trennas]: more for research in general actually ^^ what would play and be important in such times :) could also be very handy when it comes to creating villains :)

edit: this might be a convenient link for those who want some more factual info as well:

2009-02-24 [Elwyne]: Yay! I'm glad you like Deltira. I'm looking forward to playing, just give me a small head's up before we start please! Otherwise I'll keep my eye out.

2009-02-24 [Pnelma Tirian]: Sure thing! I'll send out a pm to all players right before we start. :)

2009-02-24 [Elwyne]: Cool!

2009-02-24 [PhoenixSilverDark]: HAH! FINISHED!

2009-02-24 [Nite_Owl]: Almost done :) Had to go brush up on history for a bit first, as always.

2009-02-24 [Earoluim]: * looks around *

2009-02-24 [Trennas]: after doing some more research i made a lot of headway on my character today ^^ should be done tonight or tomorrow :) finding a suitable name is still a bit of an issue though XD

2009-02-24 [Elwyne]: You could always ask. If you can't think of a name you could ask if anyone has a good name that you could use.

2009-02-24 [Trennas]: i settled on one in the past two hours.. eventually XD still writing up the details though, will probably finish it tomorrow as its close to 1 am here :p

2009-02-24 [Elwyne]: It's only about 6 in the evening here. Well, I look forward to reading up on your character.

2009-02-24 [Trennas]: ooga booga! I'm from the fuuutuuuuuureeee! :p

I started the wiki already, but Pnelma still has to review it.. anyways, it can be found here: Douglas Waldgrave

2009-02-26 [Earoluim]: .....

2009-02-27 [Trennas]: pretty dots all in a row?

2009-02-27 [Elwyne]: It says something in the page changed... I missed it. Oh, Hi Ear! (waves)

2009-03-04 [Elwyne]: ooooh, (very much likes rule number 14)
