Decaverse Updates

Scribbling nonsense all across the board like jaguars leaping from trees of leather bodices encasing aged withered corpses whose eyes dazzle with the light of one million and three silver satellites flying over Los Angeles hiding illegal immigrants from Irish potato farms built atop the golden ruins of El Dorado filled with demonic Ewoks hurling tremendous tankards of tons of Tylenol at the panda bear ninjas that hide around every corner of the magic square building trying desperately to pull up its skirt and set roots on another cubic square inch of the board upon which I am scribbling nonsense.
It’s time to talk about making some changes for the Decaverse.
I had always hoped for the Decaverse to show the development of a world changing over time. I wanted to show the rise of Decadence and her empire and all the forces that would come into conflict as a result thereof. This was the case when I was just going to write about it and it remained the case when it was decided to transition back to being a shared roleplay venture again, if not even more so now that there’s the opportunity for multiple parties to collaborate. I wanted to give people a chance to have a hand in shaping this setting.
The problem, however, is that this is hard. Like, very hard. Getting large groups of people to come together for concerted roleplay events is a whole lot easier said than done. It’s also rather limiting to try to start at the beginning of the setting’s history and work forward because the setting doesn’t have as many options available right away. The result of this is that events can only be organized every few months and at this rate it would likely take at least another year for anything significant to happen, and in that time we’d be having to work with a far smaller cast of players because the current limitations are too, well, limiting.
So in an effort to avert this, I’ve decided that it would be better to just skip ahead in the timeline. This brings us to a point where the Crystal Empire has advanced more and is freer in terms of its content. In addition to the setting itself, there are also options for more freeform play that can be done with characters who aren’t actually fully integrated. I’m hoping that this way it will be easier to encourage people to just do things instead of having to worry about all the minutia. I’m still hopeful that this can be a collaborative effort that everyone can enjoy being a part of.
