Need players for a homebrew Steampunk espionage campaign. (closed)

[Viking Bastard]

After being starved of any P&P games for some time now, I am starting to find a great need to fulfill my RPG urges.

I have in mind an espionage campaign set in my homebrew steampunk (ish) world. It uses the standard (if anything simplified) version of the Core book rules except some flavourish changes (Elves, for instance are now Fey Blooded, same rules and all, different name and origins that's all).

And it gots guns, aircruisers, rockets, pod racers etc.

.

Serpent City and the other Free Cities have been ruled by the Merchant Guild for over five decades now but are now for the first time vulnerable. One of the Guildmasters went insane, headed a coup and killed all the other masters except one, Guildmaster Ztorialim. During his reign he participated in a bloody war that has left parts of the city as well as neighbourhood town Carthill completely devastaded. It was only through the actions of heroes of the city's police was he stopped and dethroned.

Quickly Ztorialim formed a new Guild Council, but the damage was done. Potential customers looked elsewhere with their business, the other political powers saw this as the perfect time to steal a slice of the Guild's cake and worst of all, the people that the Guild governs have lost the faith in their rulers.

Quick action was needed and while the Guild tries to mend it's public image, Ztorialim founded the secret group of specialists known as the Black Cloaks, to prevent that anything like this ever happends again. To serve and to protect the Guild, it's subjects and the status Quo.

Welcome to Project Black Dagger .

So... anyone interested?

I am a steampunk junky, Fey-Blooded Fighter Musketeer/Pistol shooter

 

[Viking Bastard]

Well, change musketeer to six-shooter gunslinger and we're in business.

I am down with that... can I be a two-fisted gunslinging fey-blood in a broad hat, with a charming smile... what books, and rules and what not...

Thomas Priest




Infamous in some circles. Thomas "Heavy Hand" Priest was born to Lennox J. Priest of the Guild Loyalist Committee (GLC) during the aftermath of the Guild War. From sickly boy to rebellious teen, and now an industrious heavy hand, Priest like his father is a well chiseled man of obvious fey blood, like his father he wears tailored suits, and smokes fine cigars, however unlike his father, Priest prefers action to the dull duties of a Merchant. He frequents the pod races, and has even attempted a race or two of his own. He is an avid gambler, a womanizer, and a strongman for the Guild Loyalty Committee. Thomas thrives as a Strongman finding his niche not in industry of trade but in its protection, and the subsequent violence that accompanies a merchants travels. He currently wears a pair of round spectacles, a wide brimmed black derby, and a pin striped black Jincorrici suit with vest, and high black leather boots.

Quote " One less bad guy, one more roll of the Dice"




Relationship with his father: On the Outs
With Mother: (Died giving birth to Thomas, and Katty his twin sister)
With Katy: Like him she to is on the outs with her father, and the Two get together like a regular bonny and Clyde (as in they get along really well while doing not so good things) She too prefers expensive cloths, and fine wines.

Relationships: Thomas has an on again off again relationship with a Dancer named Mary Magdeliine or at least that's what she calls herself.

I see the main book, but what rules re you using for for weapons like guns, where can we get feats from, Spycraft? D20 Modern? Another source?

Kaiser

Just another smoky figure in the bar, the fey-blood who goes by the name of Kaiser, he does not offer another name, and gives little else then a smile and a nod. Charming fellow, and one hell of a gunslinger, one of the fastest on the streets, and a bit of a daredevil he is. Dabbles in th Pod-Races on his spare time, and is never without his wide brim black hat, has a peculiar white feather in it, matching his white smile, and white hair. Shady character, but he has a heart, or at least he makes it a business to help out those less fortunate then himself.

If you're using d20 Modern rules (and I think they may fit more, but it's your world), I'm interested.

 

[Priest]

Here is a few handguns I came up with just for the fun of it

Though if you have a list of your own I can put them into a table similar for you.

 

[Viking Bastard]

I don't have d20 modern, I have the splatbooks so they're in. So is the PsiHB (but you can't play Psions in the strictest sense... I'll explain).

Wait a minute as I dig up my notes.
