Give me a suggestion, and I will give you two character points (but please give your suggestion nicely if possible...).
I will give you 5 additional points if you can help make it happen!
What would improve the rpg? How can we attract more members? Is anything missing?
Are there any sort of group you would like to see on the rpg? Do you have a plot idea?

I think we need a "Where Am I" board for those looking for a roleplay partner. But that's just me. ;D |

I think that the gray zone should be used more then some kind of disaster. Could have it be the essence of a long thought dead god that has returned to get revenge on the Manalists and is currently draining the life from the planet to both kill everyone and also to replenish it's own power.
Either that or an interesting plot twist where a number of gods didn't die and all collectively agreed to reincarnate themselves into a single body that combines their power together. Their overall goal is to reunite humanity under a new goal. The obvious problem would of course be that this person would be very powerful and may be... to powerful.

My idea was that the gray zone was caused by a Russian forest demon who created it when he died (he was killed by the current Master) and that the gray zone is expanding because of Manala energy. (In order to stop the spread, people would have to stop using Manala energy which is taking from the earth's life force...but that no one knows that this is the cause)
As for the potential for other gods, I think that might be a good idea. I was thinking that maybe some gods could have survived and to introduce other gods slowly. One such god is Niilo Ukkonen, who is the reincarnation of the God Ukko. Another idea would be a return to Surma and Kalma, who are Keitoleinen's younger brother and sister gods. A final idea would be the return of the gods Akka (former wife of Ukko) and Louhi. Those were plot things I was thinking about for later in the game, especially Louhi.
The single reincarnation idea seems very interesting though. I am not sure if I am ready for that in this point of the game, but I think that it is an idea that I would visit later.
I think I could add another god to the rpg right now though, so, if anyone is interested in playing Surma, Kalma, Akka, or eventually Louhi...or has an idea for a different Finnish god, let me know....

I personally think that we should introduce Gods, spirits, mythical creatures, etc. from other types of mythology, or even make up out own.
Here's one I've been thinking of:
Liberium
Named from the Latin word for "freedom" or "liberation", Liberium is the god of freedom of every sort.
Somewhat of a "I pulled this out of my ass" kind of god, I like the idea of him.
Essentially, we've already got on Demi-God who isn't from any mythology, but has a good story behind him that makes since. What I guess I'm trying to get at is too introduce other types of mythology, as long as it's either very origanol or well-researched. |

I just noticed that there is little to nothing about areas like Greenland or much of the Scandinavian area. Maybe there should be a company to run that area aswell? Like some kind of wealthy elf?

Well, as far as the myth stuff goes, I like to leave it Finnish, since it makes the rpg unique in that no other rpg I've looked at uses Finnish myth, but also, there isn't as much writen or recorded about Finnish myth, so there is more room to be creative and make things up.
As far as Scandanavia goes, I am open to having one part of that region controlled by an elf. The Anti Drug Commission HQ is in Norway, but Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Greenland, and islands like the Faroe Islands or the Frisian Islands are free.
I will try to put up more information in the locations section, and also try to make a list of places that can be owned for future characters..
I would also like to work on a timeline..

If needed, I can create this "Timeline" once I get the chance. How detailed do you wan the timeline? Would you just like it to be like your summary of what happened in Red Infinity in YOA, where only main things were mentioned, or a detailed motion of every character kind of timeline, or even a simple bullet timeline, like the normal summaries? |

Does anyone have any ideas of how we could get more members?
Also, there is a lot of information on the site. I like to cover a variety of topics that could come up and really flesh out the world. However, the problem with this is that it might come across as too much info.
Do you think that the site is hard to understand and that there are confusing things? If so, how could things be more clear?
