As some of you know. I created the Ramset Plotline as a way to bring continued amount of entertainment to the board and give PC's a way to develop,expand,and change the world they adventure in...This was my first attempt ever,at doing something like this and I think it came out pretty well..
So cast your votes and let me hear some feedback and what you think...Perhaps another shall surface in the future.

I would like to see about a plot with the Zhentarim, and as we all know its your favorite guild, you can use the plot to expand the guild and help the evil PCs to expand their RP. Also, like the Ramsets Plot, you can help the good PCs to expand their RP as well, when fighting the Zhents and evil PCs. You could make some PvP events, just like the last Ramset event. It was great, can change the biography of a character and the way they RP, just like happened with Ujio. And I dont know if any DMs were watching, but after my party was defeated and were unconscious on the ground, awesome RP took place, by the drow. Even fights for leadership we saw. It was great, all from the small PvP we had. No xp was lost, and everybody was happy. Its a rare freedom. I would like to see that more often. When you face NPCs, you can expect some things and after the fight starts, the choices are somehow limited. But when you face PCs, the outcomes are endless, and the RP unexpected. It was smooth and incredible. With something like a Zhentarim Plot we could have that again, putting evil PCs against good PCs. Not all the time, but in some rare situations that can spice up things a little.

Hear, hear.. I second the call for a Zhent plotline. Not only would it allow intrigue to prosper, it would allow us to fight some humanoid baddies.. those undead were killing my sneak attacks.. ha ha.
Seriously though, the more the merrier dude, I dont care what the plot is about, i trust it will be a fun one.

Well I want to get with Josh and the rest of the DM's on actually doing something that is along the timeline...Something that is definitely without a doubt going to change the face of BG...Or maybe not as big and something that is supposed to happen like the Plague that hits BG or the Friendly Arm INN...Of course you will see some Zhent action as well...Just need recruits,base of ops,some npc's made, and that has been a little hard lately with all of the guilds we have,but I shall persevere through it.
But there are some things coming up between the present time leading up to the Times of Trouble..If and when I decide to create another huge plotline,I would like to get all of our DM's involved in it ,so each of us can play a role.I think by doing that,it would really create a very immersible plot and feeling.

Im up for it, even though I didnt get a chance to participate in the Ramset, Id also like to see some Zhentarium action. Should be fun and profitable.

although i only saw a tiny fraction of the ramset plotline i have to tell you that plots that span the world/server and result in material changes to the way things work on the world are what set a good fantasy setting apart from a series of fedex type quests.
so two thumbs up to the dm team.
being an UD player my suggestion would be a plotline that involved some of the competing power bases in sshamath (the various drow gods, the conclave of wizards, the duergar etc) that introduce the players of the UD (and possibly the surface, humans do travel to sshamath ocassionaly for trade) to their world.
the time of troubles of course results in <edited out, on further reflection they aren't as big as i had thought> changes to the drow pantheon and it might be good to leave that out for a while so people can get their feet before completely turning their dark little world on their head.

Plotlines like this bring an incredible amount to the world. For a while, sneaky players would cast "darkness" and everyone would start wondering which Ramset would appear. |

'Sneaky' characters casting Darkness?
I've casted darkness, and sneaked away...
Hmn... That would explain few reactions.

Haha! I have several persistent plotlines going, and all of them have started out intended to be nothing more than mini events. Yet they keep growing and growing.
I'm all for anything that continues because that gives a real chance for a character to develop.

I've found the plotline and the way it gave PC's long term goals to be enjoyable. The conclusion to this plot will result in a significant change to the personality of one of my PC's. In fact, depending upon how things go, the legacy of the Ramsets may continue beyond their demise.

I liked the persistent plot lines a lot. it gave the chance for lots of rp about something that is continually going on. I only got to participate in a few of the ramset events but had a fun of tone in the proccess. I hope to see more events like these in the future. keep up the good work and have some karma:)
