This is the way the World ends...not with a Bang but a
Whimper. That's nice, but this is the way the World began, not with moan
but a Roar. I am owner and operator of Kindred Games, Lord Allistair Tao
Wynter Siddon. The main game of Kindred Games is MAEL based loosely on a
game some of my friends and I played when i was a child, not D&D (good
game some flaws but good) not VtM (that one sucks) a game made completely
by our own minds most of the rules were placed down by me. other rules
came late by natural progression of the game. And peoples characters made
the game richer and grand as time passed. I doubt we were the first to
make a game of our own, but the game is what mattered most to us then not
if we could destroy everyone, still matters to me though. The game grew
as did our appetites for more abilities and skills, we progressed from
book, paper, dice, to paper and dice, but dice was not satisfying not one
of us we wanted more. What to do?, we sat around one after school not in
character this had grown beyond our characters now and had become an
obsession for us, well me to be truthful so we could not think of a thing
crestfallen a friend said lets watch a movie we did. I watched, and as I
did something changed in me i could see it but yet it was not in focus
completely and (for the first time in my life I think) it hit me like a
ton of bricks I pointed at the tv where some kung fu movie was on (i cant
remember which one I think five deadly venoms) and yelled out that's what
we do right there!! everyone there looked at me like i was crazy and said
what? all about the same time. It was a new beginning and a Kung Fu movie
opened my brain pan.
So i set out to explain to everyone my idea everyone
sat my friend dinner table and i smiled cause i saw it so plain and
simple (I do not know why people can not see the simple before the
complex) we sat there as if we were a council of elders and in fact we
were we were starting something (for us anyway) my words were simple
'lets do it for real' they did not see it i explained more. everything we
dice out story line out lets actually do it the fights the talking the
stories everything the council meeting the starting a new clan the making
of a realm, clan wars to, do it for real just like in the movies except
no cameras, no second chances, just like real life, everything for real.
they thought and I saw them smile and get it I knew we had come up with
something that was going to make are game great. we were tired of have
two people rp a fight one was way stronger and should have one only to be
let down by the dice (dice suck, internet dice doublely so) tired of have
the dice or one person tell us what we could do say and think, we wanted
more. and we got it we made it ( little did we know it was already done
somewhere else by different people we didn't care we found that later
until then we played) we made it work we had to change a few rules of the
basic format but we brought it together and we called it LARP (again
later to our dismay did we find someone already named it that and again
we didn't care we loved the game (I did especially) Live Action Role Play
seemed like common sense name and are brains actually grew.
Shaping the World
The rules changes we simple again the simplicity to this to us at
the time was amazing, and glorious the new RP, LARP could happen anywhere
at anytime , school, store, park didn't matter if you were in the game
and your started it was played out. Game Masters or Story Tellers for
some took a more Archival role keeping as they done before every ones
character sheet and the updates and making sure the rules were followed.
we needed a Policing unit to make sure that the rules were followed it
was placed up to me to create this group , I called it simply The Clan
Killers, if the Game Masters were the Guardians of the Rules then The
Clan Killers were the Enforcers but more toward the RP side the Game
Masters/Story Tellers took more of the narrative role (as it should be)
many Game Masters became Clan Killers and the game was tight in our
humble view to be a Clan Killer many tests had to be performed and to be
a Game Master many more test had to be Done (couldn't let just anyone
have those positions) then the game took hold Clan started to form from
peoples minds and thoughts families/Bloodlines rose, Groups, Guilds,
Schools everything you can imagine a flood of people joined bring with
them every creature imaginable and unimaginable, a Supreme High Council
was formed for the Realm itself to order the chaos that tried to ensue we
controlled it and saved the game some did not want certain creatures in
the game orcs, drow, elves hordes and so on, but the council decided all
are creatures of the night and can trip threw this realm with these rules
that must be excepted only the Five True Breeds are the source the
spawners of the spawned, and the Ancient Houses will be recognized and
maintained all others are subsets and classed as how the wish it to be.
The game strode forward some actually made bloodlines from there class of
Creature of the Night to one the Five True Breeds, the game was getting
more evolved, complex, and evolving.
Where Kindred Games and MAEL come in
After playing this new game holding every rank and position and starting
my own clan, heartbreak struck, a guy who was playing with who was in
fact in the game my Adopted brother, became power hungry and fought
against my Adopted father the strongest and most powerful King in the
game and first clan of the Realm and destroyed the clan and the council
and the game a game which was played for over 3 years was gone inside of
2 weeks everyone stopped playing any kind of rp and it stayed that way
for awhile I suppose for mourning? can you mourn for a game? well I know
i did we started some new different games but it was never really the
same after that then being a B.R.A.T. as i was we had to moved i had the
base of the game i made with me that started the first one off but i
tucked it away maybe another time. I took a break. it was harder than i
thought to find a game when i thought I would try again, seems in my
absence people began to think of RP as a loser game only freaks and nerds
played the game hmmm. (thinking if I was a Nerd I don't think so) but we
did except the ones that were called freaks and nerds geeks and the like
if they could play if not they were gone. So it came to pass I found a
game with out knowing I was looking for at the time in someways i wish i
had not and only few I'm glad I did, I came Online, and Online RP is the
worst RP ever came up with no one cares of stories only Cyber, only care
about Killing and how fast they can type only doing what they wanted when
they wanted Cyber, Killing, Rape, and everyone of them wanting to be
kings to tell people what to do, and having power but none of them did. A
few do I have meet a few good and True RPers I'm glad I have met them
they challenged me to make my skill better and that's what RP is about. O
Rollers, as a friend of mine calls The online Role Players,and I have
discovered that the majority of Online RPers are Children anywhere from
10 to 17. So I played here awhile learning and then started my own clan
Kunishin Shioshan a few days from being two years old, at the time of
this writing. And I have discovered if you adhere to the Old Ways of RP
and make your clan follow them and try to have a game the O Rollers
revolt and you are in the middle of a nine month war. And I survived as I
always do, the Assassination attempts, the clan recruiting from my clan,
the betray of supposed friends, I survived it all and I have survived
worse Ill survive Online RP, but I like the forum it offers just not most
of the people. and that's why I made my realm MAEL and my company Kindred
Games. And we Survive always
Explanation
You have read here that I have
used the word Kindred, I want to say now that I am not a VTM Player or
any or the games White-Wolf© make they in my opinion are one of the worst
game on the RP market They have tremendous flaws they refuse to even
attempt to correct as with the word Kindred, it is NOT a word to describe
ALL vampires, it is a Word to describe a certain type of Vampire or
Vampir (PureBlood) they do not make distentions between Vampir and
Vampire,they except nothing into there game except vampire (vampire is an
insulting word to Vampir and long ago vampire alike, but humans being
ignorant as they are took the name). Kindred is an ancient word used by
The ANCIENTS they are the ones who created the word, and Vampir, and the
Five True Breeds have been around a lot longer than about a thousand
years that's may be the time line for Vampire (Human Turned) but not for
us. Read more about my Rant, click the History button
Games
My Games are
made some are new some are old some are being constructed as we speak but
ALL my games are and will maintain the characteristics of the Old Ways of
RP I wont tolerate anything less than that. So read and understand the
disclaimer that we will not tolerate a bunch of shit but most of all we
wont tolerate shitty RPing that's the biggest sin you can commit here,
but I welcome all, everyone including those who believe that this is what
you are and not a game, come, mayhap you'll find some people just like
you, Like me.
