I had to lay a Discord role play game I ran for my friends to rest a few days ago - everyone participating got too busy to participate, including me. But I managed to finish refs for three of the NPCs during the time that it was running.

The game took place in a world where the characters from various fandoms, possessing incredible abilities, had lived many generations ago, but were now thought of by the scientific community as being historical figures whose lives were sensationalized by hearsay and legend and developed into the franchises they were immortalized in. These kids, as well as a number of other NPCs and all of the player characters, were descended from one or more of the fandom characters, but weren't aware of it, and had superhuman abilities of unknown origins. They were all invited to a study meant to determine where these powers came from. Unfortunately, not all of the researchers, or the other study participants, had the best intentions...

It was a fun game while it lasted. I'm happy to say that I created an effective framework for the game so that it could run without technical difficulties. A couple years ago, I never thought I'd be capable of functioning as a game master of any kind, but I have @corpsecake to thank for showing me how to set up and run a role play server on Discord - something that was structured enough to be workable, but not as complicated as being a Dungeon Master for D&D.

I hope that I can pay that forward and inspire more people to follow the same path - to invite others into their own worlds, to come up with their own innovative RP systems and gameplay mechanics, and to learn valuable organization and adaptability skills in a very fun way.
