Calling All 10th Rantiversary Afternow RPG Playtesters!

I'm very excited to be getting this project started!

If you were part of the 10th Rantiversary Afternow RPG playtesting session, reply here! We had a big playtest group and I can't remember exactly who was and wasn't playing.

If you remember details about your character or even better if you wrote them down, please post them here.
Please post:
Your Name or alias
Name of your character
Details of your character
Where you live (for time zone considerations)

If you want to continue the playtesting campaign and game development process, please join the following group I have created for us.

This is just for those who were at the Vancouver playtest or those who would like to join the playtesting process.

Anyone who just wants to stay posted on developments in the Afternow RPG can do so with the main Afternow RPG group:

Right now I am in the process of posting from my notes and fleshing things out so things are still in an unfinished state there but we'll have a workable draft of the rules soon from which to begin a collaboration and resume the playtesting campaign.

We'll probably be playtesting via Second Life or Teamspeak or both depending on what works for everyone.

Thank you for participating and I look forward to seeing what we create together!

Yugo shot a video and promptly posted it online!

We'll find a way to reconvene online soon via Second Life and Teamspeak.

The Story So Far

Session 1, Vancouver

Our first session went very well indeed.

The players all awoke as naked, enslaved prisoners on a Rocket Rig bound for who knows what kind of body bank organ harvesting center.

They escaped from the guards and armed themselves with some weapons and donned the guards' armor in an attempt to confuse their captors. Unfortunately for them, they were spotted on security cameras and an alarm was raised. They fought a second group of guards, attempted to hack the camera system but were locked out, and made it above deck to find themselves trapped between dozens of guards coming after them and a sniper shooting at them from the bridge.
