The Elder Scrolls: Tales of the Nerevarine Interest Check
This here is an interest check for a Morrowind based pony RPG. I'm looking for five to eight people to play, so that I can keep things a bit more manageable. This IS a pony RPG, so the races of Tamriel will be equine equivalents, and there will be mostly set classes. Please feel free to PM me with any questions or concerns. I'd like to know if you are even remotely interested, so please tell me.
Here is the format for the Character Sheets.
Please copy and paste all of the skills and racial stats to the sheet, to help make my job easier. I will add spells to them after you chose your class.
Cutie Marks will be based off of one of the skills in the class you have chosen. An example being a Daedric rune for conjuration, or a bow for Markspony. This will grant you a +5 bonus to that skill right off the bat.
Also, Elder Scrolls naming conventions will be used. If you are having difficulty coming up with a name for your character here is a name generator.

For clarification; By one-handed, I actually meant one hoofed. Swords, maces, and axes that are hoof mounted. Hoof Claws count as this as well. Two-Handed weapons are much larger, and must be wielded with the mouth. That includes Warhammers, Claymores, Battleaxes, Staves and spears.

I suppose I'll join.
There may also be a chance that I'll try to keep the Season 3 RP alive, albeit on a much smaller scale than Camo had it.

Re: The Elder Scrolls: Tales of the Nerevarine Interest Check
If you don't mind answering few questions.
How would be realised wielding both one-handed aka hoof-wielded and shield in same time?
Magic spells like in Skyrim? I mean wielding. Or like in morrowind/oblivion?

Re: The Elder Scrolls: Tales of the Nerevarine Interest Check
I don't know if you are familiar with the Boom shield from Gears of war, but it is a wrist mounted shield, that extends when it is held in position. Otherwise, it is folded down on the wrist. I was thinking something along those lines. Block also includes using your weapon to parry attacks, though that will be slightly less effective. Much like in the last RP. where you could dodge or attack, you will only be able to block or attack once per turn. I may add in stunning if you block successfully, so that there is an actual use for it.
As far as magic goes, I am working on it, though I think it will be closer to Skyrim than Morrowind or Oblivion. I originally was going to limit it more, but I believe that I will be giving characters a set amount of magica that you can choose to increase like in Skyrim.
Leveling will work like our last RP, where it will be based on experience. When you level up you will be allotted 10 points to put into the skills your class has. Each person will start with all of there skills at a base of 15. I am still working on the perk trees, but perks will work like in Skyrim. Also, when you level up, you will be given the choice of increasing your total amount of Magica, Health, or Stamina. Magica will determine how many spells you can use in combat, Health is your hit points, and Stamina will be used for Power attacks, and to determine how much you can carry.
I am still working on the mechanics though, so this is subject to change.

Re: The Elder Scrolls: Tales of the Nerevarine Interest Check
Also, at this moment, I havent figured out a way to add in Cutie marks just yet, though I have been thinking about it. Most likely, you will be granted a +5 bonus to a skill that it represents. As an example, you could have the Destruction magic symbol on your character's flank, and therefore they are granted a +5 to destruction. Same goes for the other skills.

Consider me 'somewhat interested' for this at the moment.
I'll be definitely keeping an eye on things, at any rate.

The royal sisters will be converted to represent the either the Deadric prince they are most like, or one of the Divines. I have already figured out Luna, just need to work on which one is Celestia. All gods are Alicorns.

Perhaps. And thanks, that is a good idea. I would think that Celestia would not like the undead. I may make the mane six into gods as well.

Don't worry Katarn, I have figured out a way to incorporate many characters into the lore as gods or spirits. We may not see all o them, but only time will tell.
As far as planning, I have still got quite a bit of work ahead of me.

Re: The Elder Scrolls: Tales of the Nerevarine Interest Check
Okay, so I updated the class lists finally to replace the Hand-toHand with Hoof-to-hoof, the One-Handed skill with One-hoofed, and the Two-Handed skill with Mouth-Wielding.
Mages have also had their Mouth-Wielding replaced with One-Hoofed.
Edit: For anyone who has already sent me their character sheet, I have made changes to them to reflect this.

Re: The Elder Scrolls: Tales of the Nerevarine Interest Check
So far we have the following confirmed:
1 Breton Battlemage
1 Breton Mage
1 Dunmer Nightblade
1 Zebra Acrobat
1 Nord Knight
I would like it a lot if we can see variety in the characters like we have so far. Keep it up people!
Also, be sure to send me any sort of background story you have for your character so I can further customize the experience for everyone.

The Healer class has been modified. Mouth-Wielding was replaced with Marksman, as I do not really see a healer charging in with a battle-axe
