Major Update(s)!

So, over the past few days, the other D.I.Cs and I have been chatin' it up, and, we've decided to take the second, "Uber Imperative Development Step", now.

What in the fuck am I talkin' bout? Well you see...during week three of S&S development, I discarded the narrative elements of CoC (Corruption of Champions), like the well used, yet, sexy prostitute it is; replacing the narrative elements with something distinct, and all Sins & Sovereigns' own. Now; I'm kickin' some mechanical aspects of NWoD to the curb as well, which, will be another mile stone in the road to make Sins & Sovereigns it's own game...

With the assistance of a fellow D.I.C, I the D.H.I.C, will be devoting much of this, and next week, to implement/revise, new/old, mechanical aspects of S&S. When the dust clears after the two of us are done brutally jack-hammering the system, S&S will be packin' a more lean, streamlined, and sexier, d10 system, something that you'd be proud to show off to your friends/lover(s) and take turns playing with, or, getting into a group and playing Sins & Sovereigns together; passing it around the table, having your way with it an wut-not.

After this, we'll be making numerous revisions to existing content to keep things in line with the updated Rules/Master Documents, then, we'll be well on the road to kicking off play-testing...then...a surprise! :3

Special Note: I heavily considered the use of the d20 system, as it was something a great many people were familiar with, but, it is far too rigid for the purposes of Sins & Sovereigns. The d20 system simply doesn't offer the freedom that others do, and a full d20 overhaul would not only be a pain in the ass, but, it'd be far too restrictive to the players, who for the most part, are accustomed to d20. The other choice was, d100, which would have been viable, but, what we had already was fine, so a custom d10 mechanical baseline for S&S is gonna be far more than "just fine."

Holiday Delays n' Shit!

I plan on keep'n you people updated at all times, so, here goes nothing...

This morning, I put on an extremely frilly, white apron. I've been baking pies, and cakes; humming a very merry tune all the while. Gearing up for the upcoming holiday will eat into a bit o' mah writing time, but I have been making major progress.

The Sybarite's Tool Box has received a bit of an overhaul to account for the Magic & Necromancy sub-systems, and the power they provide. Btw, I'm nearly done with this...

Exceptionalisam, Magic, and Necromancy, are three very unique, and mutually exclusive, paths of development. All three contain flavorful options, which support, ANY PLAY-STYLE.

Seriously, you can be who, or what you want in S&S. The traditional Rpg archetypes are present in Sins & Sovereigns, but, these are not forced on the players; providing unlimited freedom to the players, this is without the system punishing you for "Playing Wrong."

In addition to the Sybarite template, Demon (I draw a lot of inspiration for S&S demons from the epic poem, Paradise Lost), Fae (Not the classical Faeries, but the beautiful nightmares of Irish lore; think the epic poem, Midsummer  Night's Dream), and Golem (Golems are synthetic life forms that are objectified by all others based upon personal perceptions, and purity rating. The golem experience will be quite unique....); act as alternative, and incredibly unique player options, with their own distinct systems, mechanics, roles in the setting, and fluff. What this means for you, is, a fuckton of options in an already expansive system.

Several things such as the effects of aging, and mechanical effects of child rearing are in the works as well.

This is all for now, Bodhi out!

I dun went n' got me one o' them there "Development'o Blog'os!" Welcome, and make yer-selves at home.

Ello, Ello, Ello~ 

For those of you who do not know me, or whose pleasure I've not had the honor of conversing with in some fasion; I am Bodshivita, an aspiring writer who recently stepped on the scene a month ago, and a perfect gentleman.

Five weeks ago, I started developing an erotic Role-Playing Game, or RPG, due to an stroke of genius from Quiet Browser, one of my favorite writers. I had taken QBro's original idea, stuck it inside my own head, and went bat-shit crazy with it, and et voilà! You have Sins & Sovereigns!

A man is only as good as the people he has at his back, and this is a game that I develop with the assistance of Quiet Browser (QBro), a close friend o' mine, Leo, an artist known as Ryous-kun, and a fellow who goes by the handle of Juko, though a vast amount of the responsibility does fall upon my shouldras...errrr shoulders...

Mission Statement

My goals are four fold. 

One. I intend to develop a rule set and craft a world that has something in it for every one, every, fucking, one. As the H.(Head/Hedonistic/Hymen), D.(Developer, Destroyer, Debased), I.(In, Insidious, Imbuing), C.(Charge, Cum~); there are places that I WILL NOT GO. 

THIS MEANS, NO PEDOPHILIA, AND NO GURO! YOU CAN HAVE THESE THINGS IN YOUR GAMES, BUT THEY ARE STAYING OUT OF THE S&S DOCUMENTS/PDFs! Else-wise, nothing is sacred....

Two. I'm still the new kid on da block, I'm young and hellishly ambitious, and I hide this from no-one. I intend to use S&S as a method of improving my writing; a stepping stone to bigger and better things I have planned in the future, and a method of making a name for myself.

Three. I am a man of the people; when you speak, I listen, and when you offer ideas, and/or suggestions, I USE them. My door is always open, and if you wanna get with me and the development krew, then hit me up. I give power, control, and security to my players, there is going to be nothing in Sins & Sovereigns that you do not want, because it is your game, I just write shit! I ask for people to get involved because I'm genuinely interested in them, nothing more.

Four. S&S is far bigger than what you see now. This project really is going places, once I get play-testing started, and results from the good people who take their time to play Sins & Sovereigns; refining, expanding, and  implementing a new system for S&S will be my new direction...

What you, The people, The Players can Expect

I do not look for donations, or monetary support, I do this because I am a slut who loves to write, I am not a whore! My love is for zee writing, zee smut, and zee players! 

Though I pour my soul into S&S, I do have classes, work, and other goings on I.R.L. I cannot write full time, if I could, then S&S would have been done by now; Sins & Sovereigns will get done, when it gets done, no sooner, no latter, though S&S is coming along smoothly. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit the new blog, I hope to hear from you all in time, Bodshivita.
