I'd like to, and there are many out, I think. There was an earlier post on this, I think.

I think we try to decide what system (I prefer Traveler, or task-based), then we try to create the character into numbers. Technically, we should roll dice, but the numbers could be off. So, try to asign numbers on a scale of, oh, 1-6, assuming we're using six-sided die. And, we need more crew. Then there are six different qualities, which might vary from system to system.

Would believe I've never role-played?

We could maybe come up with something kinda like what they do at the Firefly Sock Puppet Theater..

http://firefly.irev.net/faq.htm

A cross between role playing and fan fiction, each participant takes a character, the group agrees on a scenario, and each player posts a message indicating what they do in the scenario. It's a little more complicated than that, but if we kept it move based and worked together maybe it could happen.

*flicks three switches over his right shoulder*

So what ya say? Everything looks good from here. Yes. Yes, this is a fertile thread, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this thread, and we will call it... "This Thread."

We could give it a shot. I've also seen RP by e-mail (Such as Buttonmen from Cheapass Games).

M'kay first here's a running list of who's called dibs on what characters, then a listing of characters still available for anyone who wants to join in on the thread. Then I'll send my move.

Serenity - Crew (taken)

Captain Malcom 'Mal' Reynolds: HUMBLE
Wash: ZACHSMIND
River Tam: TEELABROWN

(available)

Zoe
Jayne Cobb
Kaywinnit Lee 'Kaylee' Frye
Dr. Simon Tam
Inara Serra
Shepherd Book

Worlders (noncrew characters)
Badger
Saffron
Niska
Early

We should probably keep this idea small since it's experimental. After all the above roles are taken maybe everyone else can be Reavers or Men in Blue or Alliance operatives or something. We should probably fill up the crew before we do anything else. Give it some time to establish where everyone is on the ship before enemies start buggin' us.

WASH'S MOVE
Being Wash the Pilot, I'll report on what I find outside the ship.

... WASH'S MOVE

Black. Stars in the distance. There's the planet we just left a few hours ago. [just left Patience. Heading for Persephone.] It's early, or late, depending on how ya look at it. I could put the ship on autopilot and go to sleep, and I had done that but Zoe just went to sleep and I ..I may have drank too much coffee.

I thought I heard something a few seconds ago but it was just my imagination. I think. The scanners are clean and the long range is blank. Nobody anywhere near us unless they're black and invisible and not made of metal and very very small.

So far as I know everybody's asleep. I'm just monitoring things up here on the bridge. ..Talking out loud to myself. Which is pretty pathetic. Gorgeous babe in my bed and I'm starin' at vaccum. Maybe I'll check the cortex. Haven't run through my waves in awhile. Might be something new.

... END MOVE
