So, as some folks may know, I had been contemplating doing a steampunk roleplay a little while back, but I've been slightly nervous and unsure of how it would turn out. I was milling around in my head how I could make it simpler and still be fun, and also if it was possible to find a group of roleplayers who would be interested and dedicated to not just the roleplay itself, but the story and universe of this roleplay as well! So, a few weeks back, I had an interesting idea that I toyed with for a bit while I asked how I could accomplish these things, and that's where I got this new roleplay idea; a prequel to my roleplay "The Dictators" called "Demons of Dalcaria".
This story will be based a few decades before the events of and leading to the story "The Dictators", and the place it will be set in is the same nation, but at a period just slightly after steam technology has been created. It will be a little bit like the late 1700's to mid or late 1800's in style and steam technology will be less developed than in "The Dictators". Also, the story will be a wee bit simpler. Instead of political intrigue, it will be a demon (or Deman as I might call them in this universe) emergency of a sort, with these creatures pouring into the lands of Dalcaria, killing some of its citizens, and working to conquer the nation for their own evil deeds. Of course, such an emergency would require certain heroes to combat it, knights and priests dedicated to eradicating this threat.
Now, I don't know when I want to do this, if I want to do this, but I would love to hear the opinions of anyone reading this, as well as any ideas you might have on how to make these an even more interesting and exciting roleplay! Feel free to comment below to let me know! I hope you all enjoy this idea!

Wraith1993 You may have trouble finding people dedicated to the universe, not so much with the story though. From what I can tell, too much detail can scare people off. I one made a massive RP based on the World of Darkness and gave every option available and explanations for what they were and what they did, I waited for quite some time and I think I only got one person interested, which was not enough to really get it moving. I see what you mean. Some people had made mention of that before I think, but I've been thinking I might start a site of my own or something so that I can keep all my info in one easy to access place. It'll be a bit before I get that going, but for now this is mostly just an appetizer for my full fledged roleplay. I don't expect people to pay attention to every detail of the universe (or more specifically the planet), but it's something to act as a guide. After all, since this is a totally different planet then Earth, you can't exactly give your character an ethnicity or nationality that may not exist on this planet. xd I'll see where it goes though, thanks a bunch for your feedback! 3nodding What do you think of the story background so far? It's not written to it's fullest yet, but I just want to know what you think so far.

I've considered something about demon possession and what have you, and other such things, but what makes this story more original is the fact that it acts as somewhat of a backstory for some things in "The Dictators", especially the fact that this roleplay would be showing a build up from the beginning of the steam age, when technology is just starting to get better, to the height of the age where they have battleships, airplanes, new kinds of guns, etc, which would happen in "The Dictators". Also, I haven't seen very many demon invasion type roleplays based in this particular era, but the other thing is that the demon invasion is only part of the story, kind of a driving conflict that makes things move together. But the actual base of the story is the universe itself. I appreciate your input though, keeping in mind this is only a rough draft of what the roleplay is like, I'll add more later, if there is sufficient interest.

Sounds like a solid idea. Like I said, unfamiliar with the prequel, but that does sound like a good idea. Best of luck then.
