Urth After the Rain (self promotion)

A little bit of self promotion.
I'm setting up a ContantCon game at one of my other websites, Urth After the Rain. Pseudo-Elizabethans exploring a world where all the foreigners look like Erol Otus drew them. Over the next few weeks I'll be trying to describe the mood or flavor, and looking for players to submit characters. I'm honoring the FLAILSNAILS conventions, so bring whatever 1st-3rd level character you like. Behind the screen I'll be using a simple version of D&D, so I'd prefer characters from simpler versions of the game, but that's up to you.

Hellenistic Frankenquest

Jeremy Duncan over at Dandy in the Underworld is planning what he describes as a Hellenistic Franquest--some sort of crazy mashup of Runequest, Stormbringer, Elric!, Call of Cthulhu, along with odds and ends from Pendragon and WFRP. It will be a location based game, like Jeff Rient's Caves of Myrddin game. Jeremy is planning on setting it a generation after the death of Alexander the Great, but with more of a swords and sorcery vibe than a straight historical approach.
