CalderaRPG, an online role-playing game played out through IRC (internet relay chat, www.mirc.com).  Caldera is essentially an MMORPG... without the 'massive' and without the graphics.  Played out in text format, relying on the imagination of everyone who joins in, it's very similar to a table top setting.

This game does have an Active Character Database and Dice Rollers, free form can be conducted in the main channel between quests or events, but all opposition between characters or otherwise is dictated through dice rollers and the skills you acquire through gaming. A friendly environment for serious gamers who are tired of power gaming free form experiences. Check out the site for connection info and to just get a feel for us, the site is maintained constantly and will answer all questions promptly.

I would be more inclined to look into this if you were not a single-post user. Really, if you want to market things, put effort into it; contribute to the community.

I'm just new to the Forum, I didn't want to seem like a bot or anything. Sorry about that...  :fogetmmh:

I've been jonesing for a good PnP style RPG but dammit I hate most MUDs.  I don't like IRC either but I might have to try this out.

What can I expect out of this?  Is it really roleplay heavy with a bunch of geeks that run around as half naked elven women or is there a serious dedicated fanbase to this?

The whole "text based rpg" thing has always interested me. (I had quite the imagination back then). Might try this for nostalgia sakes.

I might play it, looks like a well thought out system. Might play a Bard. I just read the unarmed combat section, and had to laugh at the bottom.



Throwing animals? I'm in!
