Edgar A. Poe MotRD netbook

[Boccaccio Barbarossa]

I fear so...

Not only was the group silent for half a year, most of us who really wanted to be involved in a RL project moved on to other efforts... (Like the NPC netbok we are building, for example.)

However, if you want to do your own take on this, please feel welcome to do so!

That's very unfortunate. And I'm just a litle TOO busy with school right now to want to actually run the show on a project like this... well, maybe some other time...

If you focused on being butchered by my Staunton Bluff monstrosities, that would be pretty much enough for me. About the E A Poe book, one will see if one cannot submit something to the next QtRs.

One will see indeed! (in fact, there are DOZENS of great writers from the period I am already accumulating notes on...)

(Am presently reading about your game... I think I can find the time to whack things... but isn't there always time to whack things? )

Hi Rafael! Well, it's been a long time since the last reply so I hope you're still on this; I really like Poe (I guess my name speaks for itself), and I'd like to see what could be done.
Basically I'm telling you that if you want I may help you, and I refer with "may" because my skills are (I guess) not as good to do such work; I hope I can

Thank you for your help, but this project was suspended a long time already. What became of it is a semi-finished artile for one of the Fraternity's netbooks that I want to finish over this summer. Apart from that, there's not really something to do.

Well, I hope the article is good , it will be read, and I hope that when you summer it's by June (my summer has passed, I'm from the other pole, and winter is, fortunately coming, I hate heat I makes me sweat like if I were ni hell)

By the way, I'm writting a tale for the contest, I let you know as you like Poe, you can trust my writting type is very like his, which I'm starting to consider as a disadvantage, I have alwas written that way,



Well, wish you luck and see you in some of your 181293082910 millon posts haha

I'd love to see something like this. My only complaint with the original MotRD was that I thought it should have been to Poe's "mythos" what the Call Of Cthulhu RPG had been to Lovecraft's. Of course, that would be no reason to leave out the other fine Victorian beasties, but given the name of the setting and the cosmic evil therein, it just seemed like a logical design theme. I had an idea about building a campaign around this theme, but I could never get together a group interested in playing Masque.

In case no one noticed, the ending of Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym screams campaign hook. IRL, Jules Verne wrote a sequel to the Pym story. Perhaps he could retain the PCs to do a bit of "research" for him. Or maybe a descendent of Mr. Pym needs some help organizing an expedition to discover her dear uncle's final fate...

...Twenty improbable years later. Still gaming, still with the Ravenloft books in my shelves.

Thank you for everything, guys!
