[Sorcerer] Dictionary of Elric
Paiku:
I had to ponder this for a while. I'm pretty committed to running a game in which the Lords of the Higher Worlds are playing chess with mortal lives, and I want Humanity to reflect that.
So, I see your point: I can still get that with Humanity = Friendship and Love. And the rituals of Sorcery still involve the demons extracting promises of loyalty, ie. demanding priority over the sorcerer's loved ones.
I'll put it to the players. And I'll add your post to my Dictionary of Elric, if you don't mind, Chris :)
Cheers,
-John

Finarvyn:
I remember a thread about this a while back. I thought it was an awesome idea back then, and I like what you've done with it! I think my group would enjoy this.
Paiku:
Thanks Marv, glad you like it. I'd like to hear any thoughts that you have.
2 weeks til the character generation session. I'm pouring over my R-maps, trying to generate some interesting Young-Kingdoms rulers, Melnibonéan potentates, and tensions between them. I know this'll be so much easier once I have the PCs' kickers. On the other hand, the players will have more to work with in generating those kickers if I can give them some detailed NPCs first. Catch-22!
Cheers,
Paiku:
Ten days left til our kick-off / character-generation session. As a compromise to the catch-22, I've decided to send out brief NPC character sketches to the players, one per day until kick-off. Any of these which the players incorporate into their backstories or kickers will be developed into full NPCs and added to the Dictionary.
I will post the NPC character sketches to my gaming blog too, starting with this one: Duke Senodjar (Melnibonéan).
For your enjoyment / Comments welcome. Cheers,
-John
Paiku:
One of the PCs just Contacted, Summoned and Bound ARIOCH.
This game is going so awesome!
We're seven sessions into our Elric/Sorcerer game, and I'm loving every minute of it. I haven't been posting AP or new content because I'm busy just keeping up with the inter-session prep. Once the game wraps up, I will put a bunch of the game assets (new NPCs, locations, demons, plots, secret societies, etc) into an updated version of my Dictionary of Elric.
I could also post my running synopsis of the in-fiction events, eventually, if that would be of interest to anyone out there (personally, I find plot summaries of other people's games terminally boring, but, you know, I think mine are good ;-) and might be of interest to Moorcock fans or anyone thinking of running an Elric-over-Sorcerer game).
Mainly I was just excited about Arioch's appearance in the game and had to tell someone. :) Cheers,
-John
