A group of us have been developing a character growth system to be used in relation to a medieval fantasy setting. The idea is you accrue points for posting (kinda like experience points for you rpg players). You could then spend the accrued points on character development stuff: growing stats, acquiring abilities, obtaining better equipment, etc.
The general loop of play would be: create character > go on adventure with 1 or more other rp'ers and their characters > get points for a completed rp > spend points to grow character > take character on newer and grander adventure > repeat
We have considered a lot of the short comings as well as perks of such a system for running rp's, and thought it would be fun enough to at least try. Anyone also interested in the idea and/or willing to give some creative input as we continue to flesh out the system, please let me know. ^_^
