Hey guys!
Alright so I was talking to @diemydarling and i was like dude i bought a wrestling rpg and he was all like yo the forums have rpg games.
so i figured I'd give it a shot!
The cool thing about this game is there's really no limit to the amount of players, but... the roster will have to rotate. (I might limit it to 6 players per card for right now.) Its episodic by nature like professional wrestling!
Anyways I created this thread to see if there was interest in this being run. If so, make a reply, post at the minimum gimmick you want. IF you want you can also include what setting you want the promotion to take place in (Modern, Fantasy, The Past, The Future, ETC.) maybe even introduce some
ndpdesign.com/wwwrpg/
Anyways so yeah here's the format.
FORUM NAME:
NAME:
GIMMICK: (Its fine if someone else has the same gimmick. Also this can change before we start.)
WHATEVER ELSE YOU WANT:
I figure we can help each other flesh out this stuff as I figure out just what the hell I'm getting myself into lol.
Also for the non-wrestling fans or even the wrestling fans I guess I'll breakdown what the gimmicks are... A lot can be used for if you're basing it off pop culture stuff. If you need help with choosing a gimmick feel free to reply here or even hit me up on the Discord~! Keep in mind this is all open to interpretation. What I might interpret as something could be something you see differently
