Ilkor: Dark Rising

Ilkor: Dark Rising Ilkor: Dark Rising - Hand Moderated Single Character Fantasy Play-By-Mail Game Players control a single character they create at the start.

Firstly, the game is free to play and is currently in beta and looking for brave new adventurers to help playtest. The game has been designed to cater for many thousands of players immersing themselves in a rich persistent world. The fantasy world of Arcadia is huge, spanning 5 massive continents rich in detail and diverse in nature and wonder. The game is run by the GameMaster. Players write down

their orders on a ‘turnsheet’ which is then submitted to the GameMaster. The GM processes the turn and constructs the results in narrative form and sends it back. This cycle repeats for as long as the player wants to play, which can be many years. Over the years the PC advances in skill, power and fame. ilkor-pbm.com website is central to the game, providing both the rules & world setting as well as rumours, news & gossip from players and the GM alike, list of all known adventurers and access to any guilds, societies and factions you may be a member of.

The game has just hit the 40 player mark!! Really happy with the response, the players appear to be enjoying the experience so far. There are limited spaces available, so if you want to join then I suggest you do so quickly. It's free and you can play at whatever pace suits you.

So go check it out: ilkor-pbm.com though there isn't too much to see, the website is really a hub for players to meet, chat, share news and stories. To do this you need to register and then login.

If you are keen to see an example of a character creation form then you can download it here: https://ilkor-pbm.com/?attachment=2752&document_type=document&download_document_file=1&document_file=27

The same with an example turnsheet: https://ilkor-pbm.com/?attachment=3216&document_type=document&download_document_file=1&document_file=31

I've finally finished designing the game and am now opening it up to a small group of playtesters.

So if you are interested then hop over the https://ilkor-pbm.com and join.

The game is a hand moderated single character fantasy play-by-mail game.

I've tried to keep it as retro as possible, a throwback to the 80s and 90s. It's totally free to play.

Simon has slightly revised the dwarf avatars, which I think has certainly made them far more distinctive than before. Still more to come.

Just received the facial parts for the male dwarf avatar from Simon. It's still in draft, but here's an example:

We're looking at changing the Mapping Engine from a 2D grid to a hex grid. More in line with traditional old school RPG - Yeah
