Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Sorry for being unclear! I'm only passingly familiar with the canon so I'm wondering if it's something that a newbie could join, aka someone who's canon-blind but likes the idea of a sci-fi RPG-esque DWRP game!

And, to be fair, this sounds really awesome. I'd join though I'd probably be spending most of my time on the wiki trying to make sure I had everything right. I hope you guys pick something up and run with it. I know at least one of my friends would kill for a game like this.

Honestly I think it'd be pretty easy to make it all accessible! The RPG aspects of the game are actually pretty shallow, like these factions could easily be described/explained with short blurbs on some sort of info entry for a DWRP game and you wouldn't have to omit anything that'd be relevant to gameplay to keep it short. Most of the lore found in the game's grimoire wouldn't be immediately relevant to the characters anyway, so it'd probably just be best to set it up as a sci-fi/adventure game with a touch of horror and give players the BG info as they uncover it naturally in the readymade maps and story lines. Obviously you wouldn't want to guide players through the shitty barebones story of Vanilla Destiny but if someone wants to go digging through the laboratories on Venus you could use the Vex experiments as a jumping off point for an interesting mod or player plot.

But like I said a couple replies up I'm personally way too busy to spearhead this kind of thing, I'm just a total nerd who has read every available entry in the Book of Sorrows and would be totally down to help.
