Do'ers of Daring
Like most things I get involved with, Facebook has become a platform for playing games, and I feel as though I've made the usual rounds. I have a farm, and I have a mafia, and I had brief stint as a knight, but that's over now. Mostly because my vassals kept getting stolen, and to be honest the game wasn't very interesting. Then I fell into The Fellowship, which is as bad as it may sound. Think RPG turn based combat with one of the Final Fantasy/Japanese RPG combat systems wherein you tell character1 to attack monster1, so on, and so forth. Like most of the games on FB it's more or less a clicky way to waste time. This one appeals to me though, probably because it's based on fantasy rpg genres we've all known and loved for a long time.
Like all of the other FB games you're supposed to pester your friends to get them to join you, and in the case of Fellowship they become one of your 5 party members. I don't like pestering my friends, at least very much, so I ended up with three party members, and that wasn't satisfying. So I made FB accounts for my cats, and that filled in the group nicely, and now I have a full fellowship of six. Burpee, a human hunter; Noggin, a dwarf fighter; Fizzle, an elf mage; Horatio, a fawn thief; Pale, an undead cleric; and Gumrot, a Troll knight. They're all level 9 now, and, I didn't know this when I started, but the Fellowship gains levels as you go, so my group is now level 9.
I keep thinking about expanding the characters out into some type of farcical fantasy story, but as with most of those aspirations I doubt this one will bear any fruit.
