Mage:the Ascension

I am currently running a New World of Darkness game that is loosely based on 2nd Edition Mage. It has a large number of players and is a bit of an experiment and multimedia event. It is nominally a table-top RPG, but we have had LARP scene's set in local bars, individuals meeting in character around town for discussions, discussions by email, and in-character Live Journals.

As most players have personal LJ's, even if they don't have an in character LJ, we're using the game_ooc Live Journal community for administration and discussion, and the game_ic Live Journal community to post in character news releases and stories. Go to either of those communties for more information.

Some time ago a group of us began a Mage game that lasted many years, and only broke up as a result of several of the players leaving the area.

The game resulted in the creation of a covenant of mages dedicated to creating freindly relations between as many of the factions of mages and other supernaturals as they could, which became known as "Ihou te Pounamu" or "The Heart of Greenstone"

The Heart of Greenstone played a large part in the defection of the Void Engineers, acted as a refugee centre during the destruction of Doisettep, were responsible for saving much of that esteemed realm's library from the destruction, and became a command & control centre and rallying point during the Oblivion War that forced all of Earth's mages, including the Technocratic Union, to work together against the invaders.

More materiel on the Heart of Greenstone will be posted once it has been prepared
