14 years ago, the dungeons began to appear. Mysterious structures, erupting from the earth, it is said that those who can conquer them will obtain wealth beyond their wildest dreams, gold, jewels and powerful Pokémon. One such dungeon, Suicune, lies in the heart of the oasis city of Aldmoor, beckoning those who would try to claim its treasure.
So, this is basically exactly what it says on the tin, a Magi inspired campaign, well, really, at the moment I can only guarantee a one-shot. I'm about as fresh-faced as a DM can get, only having ran the beginnings of various still-born campaigns, so that's why I'm getting assistance from junsenkyo, who will be acting as co-GM/player.
This will have 3 entries chosen, not including junsenkyo, and will be TL 1 with non-pseudo underdog starters at lvl5. 5000 in cash, a journal for recording encountered Pokémon, using GoT. The setting is a kind of whimsical fantasy, so if you want something more technological in origin, run the refluff by me first. Also, only Apricorn balls and basic balls are to be used, with basic balls being made from "Grey" Apricorns. Basic weapons are 3000, 6000 for fine.

Oh my, I love Magi! A game set in this kind of world would be nothing less than awesome. I'll be dropping of an application for sure!! (Most likely tomorrow, Tuesday at the latest.)

So are we strictly sticking to GOT or you're saying that its allowed? That it's allowed. I'd assumed Core was a given.

Where are you planning on playing? Here? Skype? R20?
Is it expected to know Magi to be able to play?

Here. I don't know jack about Roll20 and I'd prefer to keep all RP archived.
As for prior knowledge... I want to say no, as I hope I can introduce the mechanics of the universe similarly to the show. Really, all you need to know is the Dungeon bit.
But, it wouldn't hurt to know. It's probably not going to be a beat for beat copy, so don't worry about canon nations and don't ask about Sinbad.

Well I know 0 about it, only thing I was able to find on wikipedia was that it's arabian nights sort of based, and something about different colors of mages. :S

...Oh, the color of Rukh. It's basically black and white magic, evil and good, you know, the usual stuff.
I think the series is available on Netflix, it might of been taken down, doubtful considering they have a Netflix exclusive entry, but I haven't checked recently.

Hmm... Sounds interesting.
Two questions: Do our pokemon get any egg moves and do you have a cutoff date for applications?
Edit: Third question - Can our pokemon have a skill background?

I was able to see 3 episodes of the series, so I guess that the major setting is a group of adventurers/trainers going into the Towers in search of glory, fame, money, magic artifacts and the such.
I had a character made up, but I think I'm going to change it a bit. Doesn't make sense now after seeing the episodes.

Watched the first 2 episodes. Are you leaning into the Arabian theme like the show?

We'll... see what happens. If that's what the people want, I'd be happy to oblige.
I'm going to be honest with you, I'm not really sure where this is going to go.

Ok, I was really asking more for what to name a character. Crafting a Fortress (maybe steelheart) blacksmith character.

Okay, got a character that... might fit into this world, but I'm not sure, so I'd appreciate it if you could give me your thoguhts on the matter: Emir Al-Hashara, the Prince of Locusts. Don't worry, he's a lot less sinister than that sounds.

I sent you my character by private message, not sure if you got it. He's a Mamluk, so a heavy armored warrior. Also Fortress like Tazukie was going to do :S

Yes, I got it. It should fit.
I'll give about another week or so for apps at this point, in case there's anyone else interested. I do like the apps I've got, it's kind of intimidating when you feel like the players are better at this than you are.

Hey everyone Jusenkyo here, I know I haven't said anything on the thread yet but I'm here in the game helping mechanics wise and other small things in background and also as a sort of NPC Magi with the party. Edit: Fatina so this is my Magi and a link to a short backstory. Lockon is defiantly still doing this soon, just working out some finishing touches. Thanks for everyone being patient.
