Ancient Blessings

This is actually the home page for two possible games. At the moment Ancient Blessings is an Adventure! game in which the players are members of an archeological dig. That doesn't mean that you all have to be an archeoligist however. The second idea, yet to hav a working title, is a Trinity game in which the players play a bunch of humans sent out to set up a planet for colonisation.

The Iulius Foundation wants you!

The Iulius Foundation requires the expertise of a number of specialists in the areas of linguistics, archeology, anthropology and related fields for a proposed dig in the Southern region of France. Preferred knowledege regarding the period known as the Dark Ages is essential, though accomodation may be made for students and lecturers requiring field work for course credits or theses. Also required are the numerous support staff usually connected to a dig of this type. Please inquire at our offices in San Francisco, London or Hong Kong. Allowances will also be made for any members of the press wishing to be present at the dig. Please apply before October 5th, 1928.

December 25th, 1927

The early dawn light flooded the small chamber as a young man entered through the crumbling doorway. In one corner lay a few gnawed up bones, rats scittering away at the sound of footfalls. The young man surveyed the empty room, rechecking the notes he held before him.


"Are you sure we're in the right place?" he shouts to someone behind him.
A distant voice returns, "Just wait, the sun won't be up properly for at least a minute."


The young man lounges against the wall, careful not to obsruct the light from the window high above. As the seconds tick by, the patch of light moves slowly up. A low rumbling seems to permete the room and slowly, a patch of smooth rock slides back into the wall.
The young man rushes over and grabs the metallic tube lying in the alcove, quickly flicking a hidden clasp and removing the top of the tube. Gingerly, he extracts a few rolled up pieces of parchment and precedes to examine them. A warm glow of excitement seems to eminate as he struggles to read the ancient text, but eventually, he lets out a soft sigh of satisfaction.


"It's here, Professor! Everything exactly as the book said."
"Well bring it back, man, bring it back."


The young man precedes to step through the doorway, gingerly replacing the parchment. within the tube. He steps forward, forgetting to look at the path, and then, he is falling"

Ancient Blessings is set within the Adventure! universe. All the players will be inspired Daredevils, but with slightly reduced stats. Each character will have a minnimum inspiration of 5 to simulate the fact that they are luckier than others and will then have five or six points to use for increasing stats and buying knacks. The characters are generally considered to be the second person you would go to for various reasons. Not the best at what they do, but fairly high up there.


I'm looking for people to play at least one archiologist, one linguist, and then people can play anything from one of the dig security guards to a journalist to a student to an anthropoligist to a financier. As long as you can justify to me why they're there, its cool.

Aeon Trinity

Would you like to be one of the first on the new jump ships? Aeon Trinity and Orgotek Industries have been given the go-ahead by the world nations to set up the first corporate sponsored colony. However, Orseta, as the moon has been nicknamed, needs to be readied and made livable before we can move the colonists in. To this end, we require the expertise of experts in the areas of bio-spheres, hydropologies, terra-forming and related science and engineering fields. To this is added all the normal support staff positions, as well as exploratory positions since Orseta has not been completely explored on foot. Accomodation will be made for the families of those joining, either on-site or in Orgotek compounds. Please apply to our offices around the world for the further details. Thank you and God speed.

Many people are going to complain that this blurb is arb and gives very little detail. Well, its suppose to be. The game is set in the Trinity universe, just after the jump ships become operational. Players don't need to know too much, since the first part of the story will not really deal much with the convential history of Trinity and any blurb I can think of would give too much away anyway. Players can play anyone, and I do mean anyone the want, just as long as they're human.


This game will probably start off slowly, but can become very political and involved in the major happenings of the Trinity universe. Anyone is welcome.

My plan is to make this game about roleplaying, not rollplaying. This will be my second campaign, so anyone who does not mind a slightly inexperienced DM is welcome. Sign-up has begun. Get to it.
