This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: MisterPunchOf course (a little later) Sapphire and Steel would make a great game: All irregularities will be handled by the forces controlling each dimension. Transuranic heavy elements may not be used where there is life. Medium atomic weights are available: Gold, Lead, Copper, Jet, Diamond, Radium, Sapphire, Silver and Steel. Sapphire and Steel have been assigned.
That is still a wonderful show, and a major influence on how I run Nobilis.

My darkest experience from the 70s was Rick Wakeman's solo album, Journey to the Center of the Earth. Set standards for pretention and bad artistry the worst of the Forgeites could never hope to sink to. I blame it in large part for punk rock. A movement by pretentious reactionary anti-musicians that did more to kill rock music than Adam Ant.

I posted this on a thread on rpgnet about superhero settings.

365

The Set Up - Your life has't turned out as you expected. Too many people let down. Too many expectations not lived up to. And of late, that feeling that something bad is about to happen. You see it on the faces of people who pass you by. You see it on the faces of your loved ones. This is not the troubling part. No. What is troubling, is that there is a hint in those looks, that they want you to do something about it.

The Call - 365 Days. One year, to make a difference. One year to make up for lost time. One year to make it right.....to get it right.

The Gift - Your full potential. What you really are inside. We can make it happen. Your wildest dreams. Are you faster? Stronger? Soar in the heavens? Who are you really? We can help you find out?

The Judgement - 365 is all you get. How many people can you help ? How much can you do? Are you really a good person? We will be the judge of that....

After reading some of the post on this thread, if I ever run this campaign it would be set during the Seventies.

Regards,
David R
