Topic: WWII Horror LFP
Subject: sure
Would love to have you RPN. Any idea on a character? Keep in mind this is "hollywood" style world war II so don't worry too much about real history or timelines. If we can get a premise going right away (within two days) then we can slip you into my next post. Otherwise I will post to the game and have you show up later.

Topic: WWII Horror LFP
Subject: Attention!!
I am looking for someone to join the Escape from Castle Rautenberg game - a WWII horror RPG based on the cortex rules.
I would like someone to play an American soldier who was captured by the nazis and is in the castle. You would jsut be waking up as the game is progressing. If yo uare not familiar with Cortex, don't worry, I can walk you through the system.
Although originally a one shot campaign, this could roll into another game afterwards as a special team that investiagtes paranormal and occult missions.

Destiny Bridge, Day One of Journey, 10:00 pm ST
“Fuel cells are still warm,” Tess said to Jason as she began the power up sequence, “I’ll take us out slow and then we’ll boogey on at the edge of their short range sensors. She’ll be ready by the time you’ve made your call to those sah gwa tze fu.”
“Sounds good Tess, Just make sure that we take this nice and easy. The last thing that we need right now is for the Erikson to decide we’re being suspicious.” Jason said as he turned to the communication station powering up the transmitter and keying up the mike.
“Greenleaf control, Alliance Cruiser Erikson, this is fast courier Destiny upon successful completion of the inspection we are now resuming our previously interrupted flight plan.” Jason called into the Port authority and received the green light to proceed. The Erikson was still matching speed and course but there was no reason to delay your journey any further.
““Sheh sheh, Erikson and Greenleaf have a nice day.”Jason replied.
Tess activated the main engines and the ship took off like a shot into the black, with Greenleaf and the alliance cruiser slowly becoming smaller and smaller in the rear monitor.
Destiny Guest Quarters One, Day One of Journey, 10:00 pm ST
“Gorram, that doesn’t look so good. That’s got something techy about it. Grace ,you think you figure this out without causing us no more delays?” Jon started to reach for the case but stopped, “Ah, I’ll just leave this for you.”
Grace didn't reply. She just kept looking at the case as if he and it were the only one in the room. Jon had seem grace get like this before and there was little he could do. Grace was pondering possibilities and possibilities and then some. Best to just let her be, as she always did right by the ship and crew. He patted her on the shoulder reassuring and then left the room giving the hand signal to Ken and the Doctor to follow him out. Just as they did, Grace suddenly flipped the briefcase over and then back again, mumbling to herself "No. Of course it isn't an explosive. I knew that."
As time passes, the crew begins to resume normal life on the ship. Tess sets in a course that is the fastest, most direct route to Osiris as there is no need to hide with legit cargo. The Doctor send a wave to the hospital and passes the news to the crew that Priscilla is still recovering and not cognitive enough to answer any questions. Grace fumes in her room for awhile that people had been in her room but eventually gets down to business. At 11 pm, Ship time, she comes to the common room with the case.
The tech was mere a high end lock made so only Priscilla could open it. Grace interrupted the power and reset the factory specs so the lock accepted her DNA. Inside was a personal wave transmitter, with the last time used was to the Companion Guild house on Sihnon, the day that Priscilla took ill. Unfortunately the device did not save the message. The other was a key card, coded for a the main hospital on Ariel but as for what, Grace was unable to say.
Dr. Young looks at the key with a bit of surprise. "That's a cyro-key. For clients who have organs grown and kept in cryo-stasis in case they ever need a replacement. To get it you need the key and a DNA sample to prove you are indeed the donor."

"You've been playing with children and fools too long, sugar, you're descending to their level. We're almost at the curve of the drift; I'd better see some light to show your good intentions, or we walk outta here!" Willow called out.
There was a brief pause of silence and then the scuffling of someone moving around, and the sound of water sloshing as well. Down the drift a light pulsed twice to show you the way to go. "Now keep coming down the drift, to the base of the old shaft ." I'll be waiting for you there." Brigit calls out.
Sam, Wyatt and Willow continue down the path for a while cautiously. As you move you see another flash of light in the dark, then another and another. Brief flashes, very small but a sign that you are not alone. Then a voice, familiar to Willow calmly and quietly says near her ear. We meet again Miss Willow. Shame it is once again not under the best of conditions." It is Lau Tsu's voice. As soon as he speaks, three Tong men dressed in black step out slowly into your light and A fourth steps out from beside Willow and Tsu removes his head covering.
(assuming some hello and you scared the bejezus outta me)
"I apologize for startling you like this but grandfather asked me to bear you a message Miss Willow. I am afraid I bear sad tiding for Grandfather has left this world to join his ancestors. Fear not, it was not by the hand of the devil and his mistress. In fact, shortly after you left it was like something he was holding on to for life was no longer a burden - perhaps he found someone to share it with? I would not know." And with that he passes a piece of folded paper to Willow. "But if you brought any measure of peace to him, I will be forever in your debt."
The Message - Willow: They say the son must share the burden of the father but it is the daughter that has to clean up the mess. I fear I won't be here for you to give the chess piece to when you return and I am sorry for burdening you. Many evil acts are done in a war. I only hope that you judge me not for what I did, but what I hid. Please finish what I should have done. Thank you.
"We seek out the devil Pearson to seek revenge for his deeds against the family. But he moves like a shadow and eludes even me. I feel like he is watching us, mocking me. I can find a acorn carried on the wings of an eagle, but this man is beyond my skills. Be cautious. He does not fear death and enjoys its company. I fear I grow old, for i can't track a murderous villain and I trusted the devil in a woman's guise. For my sins, I bear the price."
(assuming some more riddles in the dark)
"You go to meet her? Be careful. She is the more dangerous of the two. We must go and seek out Pearson. Good Luck to you."
Frisco, Day Nine 11:20 pm Planet Time
Asher! You there! You better be alive young man or else I may be powerfully upset at you ruining the work I put into saving you. Ain't too respectful to get yourself killed before all the stitching heals." It was Doc McGuire's voice, followed by the sounds of someone moving debris. "HEY!....... Over here!......... I got a man down and I can't move these beams!" the Doc shouted.
For the second time in a week that gruff old voice has been the best thing Ash could remember hearing. “Doc? …..Oh Doc thank Buddha you’re here.”
Then with a small crack in his voice Ash said, “Doc…., I’m sorry……, Winnie didn’t make it.”
"I'm sure you tried Asher. Some people have too much hate in them to keep going. " the doctor replied
“Ash? That you? Yell out if you can hear us.” Came another voice, Bowman by the sounds. Soon he heard Wolf call his name as well and the beam over him moved to reveal moonlight, a lantern and three faces of people he was glad to see.
"Don't try to move yet!" the Doctor said sternly and began poking and prodding his side, legs and back before he nodded his head. "You are one lucky man Asher." he says with a whistle, "But you will need some rest and mending." He said as he pulled out his dermal mender and began to work on Asher's forehead where a gash had formed. A small crowd of peopel were coming out now. some were standing around but many were hauling buckets to douse the fire and others moved beams and debris.

Subject: OSRIC not Ostrich
The OSRIC rules are available free at Drive Thru Games
OSRIC stands from Old School Reference and Index Compendium and is to 1e/2e rules what Pathfinder is to 3/3.5 rules. basically they have taken the original rules and re-packaged them so people could produce modules without fear of legal vengence from WotC.
A lot of gamers still like to old rules and many games are played here with them.

I moved your thread to the recruitment forum as that is where this belongs to attract players.
I would suggest that you delvelop your game concept fully and then explain it to players who might be interested. You have been rather vague as to game mechanics so far and this doesn't strike me as a good one for freeform.

I like this game too and have not moved on. I am just balancing the loss of two players on a five man team. I have no problem writing Brutal out with a heroic ending. A prisoner? Hurm. Sounds cheesy but hey this was always based on hollywood WWII, so what is a little cheese between cells?
Let me ponder. I am still quite busy (am at work right now actually) but things should be easing up by Friday.

Please read Blog on YeOlde if you have not already.
As Ken was not originally YeOlde's character, I have no problem with having another person take up the role. YeOlde will be sorely missed but Tann'Talas has offered to take on Ken so we can continue.
Any objections or thoughts - let me know now.

With the Sam going NPC and YeOlde's passing we have some crew issues to look at. This is my solution. NOC the two until Brigit game is done.
Andrew Bowman will stay on Frisco to become new sheriff.
Sam will vanish leaving a note about enemies getting too close.
I have asked MMV to come up with a pilot to take over the helm. MMV is a good roleplayer and loves the Serenity verse.
Any thoughts or objections, bring them out now.
