The Great Tree

My good friends at the Great Tree Forum,

The Second Fall of D'ni has devastated us all. We have watched as the DRC concluded their affairs in the ancient city. Out of character, Cyan declared the Uru Live was coming to an end. The proclaimed ongoing story of Uru Live was a false notion; it has died when we least expected it to.

The D'ni Restoration Council are cleaning out the City, removing all those cones and blockades, getting ready to leave the ancient city of D'ni. The explorers who were led down by Yeesha and Zandi are packing their bags and shuffling out.

The notion of Uru Live dwindles.

Enter the Uru Live Role Playing Area. A forum dedicated to continue the idea of Uru Live. What if the DRC didn't close the City, what if something miraculous occurred, giving them enough funds to continue their restoration? Call it a parallel universe, if you will, in which they did not leave.

This is a forum where you can create a character, as much the same as your avatar on Uru Live, and continue to participate in the ongoing storyline of Uru. Where you can immerse yourself even more into the game, effecting how things happen. Go see Douglas Sharper, the Shroom Baron, and help him out on Teledahn. Arrange an appointment with Dr. Kodama to let him decide what your faction deserves. Form groups, continue the legacy of the D'ni League of Activities or the Great Tree. Explore new ages and make your own neighborhoods to gather at.

This is role playing. While the world of graphics of Uru Live has ended, the world of text is just beginning. A marvelous substitute that takes one thing away and gives back another.

Please check it out. At least look into it and see it for what it is, a living legacy of Uru Live.

The link to the forum will be posted soon, more information is to come.

On a side note,
The Uru Live Role-Playing Area will need a few key things from the Great Tree.

We need a Brian Fioca character. He is a critical part to the storyline. I would prefer Brian Fioca play as him, but if he is unwilling, then someone else can take him. If not Brian, then I'd like it to be another member of the Great Tree.

Also, the Role Playing Area will be much more immersive. The Great Tree, as a large faction, will have much more impact on the world around them. Maybe some of your goals, such as making a major meeting with the DRC, could come to life. There could be other perks to having a large faction, such as having better neighborhoods, having a larger political standpoint. You know, this is such an immersive, open roleplaying experience, that you guys could even form an army and go to war, if you wished.

I am just saying, that when the link is announced, be there. Look at it, to see if you are interested.

ULRPA has opened!

The link can be found at the bottom of the page. It is an invision board, until I can find a better area to host it. It is also a subsection on my main forum, but they won't interfere with you at all. Stay within the Uru: Ages Beyond Myst area.

I hope to see a great deal of interest from the Great Tree Forum! Please check it out and join!

The Uru Live Role-Playing Area!

very interesting...

a Brian Fioca character? that's very... wow. hmmm... not sure how i feel about this. I'm very flattered, and I kinda want to see how your board catches on before I commit, and since it is my real name, I might feel a little funny if someone else were saying things as me. Let me think about this.

Personally, I would suggest that all names be changed as to avoid creating divergent realities. The DRC will be back in action at some point. Either wait until the end of the year or change the names. Seems too soon to be starting something like this where we left off. I'm sure you can come up with a whole new take on this story with very little effort. Sort of an "Elseworlds" tale, to borrow a word from DC Comics.

Darkest, I must be honest. I am not sure about this. This is.... well, I don't know. I hope you'll not take offense at these words, and my boldness to critically analyze something I have no right or claim to.

Besides copyright issues--and there are quite a few you'll run into, intellectual property and otherwise.... there's this. If this gets off the ground, you may find that quite a few of the ULRPA's main contributors will have the tendency to exploit the forum as a medium for the realization of their delusions of grandeur. By which I mean, you could find the plot spinning out of control as relative unknowns attempt to make themselves important through complex plot twists they invent, as the line between science fiction and fantasy blurs....

I joined this, and it's really shaping up to be a lot of fun! Of course, it's not Live, but it's even better, in some ways. Wink

Try again, it should work. Maybe the server just 'blipped' for a moment.
