[Setting] Communist Zombies
« on: November 13, 2014, 06:00:52 AM »
I decided to put my own spin on a Necromancer and his plans of world domination with an undead army. Basically, the human nations of the world have the historic problems with slavery, imperialism, theocracy, monarchy, sexism, brutal discipline, etc. (Basically, the nastier aspects of the past that Romantics tend to overlook are there in full force.) Meanwhile, the Necromancer is legitimately trying to bring about a better society, except that he's willing to commit untold atrocities in order to do so.

No matter which side the PCs choose, they will witness atrocities occur and have to deal with their side being the lesser of two evils. Whether they choose to resign themselves to it, or fight against it, is up to them. There is a certain irony to the party being recruited for a war against a necromancer's rebellion, only to rebel themselves after the fighting has settled down.

Thanks for the interest. I'm looking more into a gaming session conducted over Skype or Roll20 at the moment, though. I've never had a pbp game finish.
