Crazy Monkey's Asylum is my little home on the interwebs, focused primarily on Play-by-Post roleplaying.
The end of the year slow down is upon us, but we still have some grooviness happening in the world of PbP, a chat campaign, and some big plans for the coming year. Here's a peek.
Pathfinder Chat Campaign
Pathfinder is Paizo's new RPG, a revision and major update to the 3.5 d20 rules. Monkey is running a chat campaign on Monday evenings, with several interesting twists. The campaign mixes in Modern elements, and touches of Planescape and Spelljammer, all in a universe that has yet to be named...that's your job!

And the best part is, you don't need to own the Pathfinder RPG to play. You can use the Pathfinder SRD.
Duet Campaigns
One player, one GM, all fun. The Asylum provides a forum for anyone to set up and run a Duet. If you have to an itch to run something, check out the forum.
Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition
The most popular game on the Asylum (and lots of other places) right now is, of course, D&D 4E. We have six D&D 4E PbPs at the moment and always welcome more. If you want to run one, I'll set you up with your own forum, where you run the show. Click here to check things out.
Coming in 2010
The Asylum has big plans for 2010, including:
Moonlight Drive Chapter 2: Ashes to Ashes - The second installment of a Vampire: The Masquerade Chronicle, set in Chicago, 1992.
Primordial Chapter 2: The Mystery of Creation - Player characters are the fledgeling gods of a new world, a world that is theirs to mould and shape as they choose. But, the titans have other plans for the new gods and the world itself may not be as willing to be moulded as the new gods were led to believe. Player characters use D&D 3.5 rules to create Divine Rank 0 20 HD Outsiders, who then gain epic class levels and divine ranks as the game progresses.
A New PbP From Monkey
Possibilities include:
N.I.G.H.T. - A Ninjas & Superspies campaign based on G.I. Joe with a heavy dose of Ghostbusters and other zaniness.
Dark Day 2012 - The long awaited Nightbane campaign that will feature a second Dark Day that will either spell the world's doom or the end of the war.
A Promise Kept - A Changeling: The Lost story.
Rite of Passage - The opening chapter of a Werewolf: The Apocalypse chronicle set concurrently with Moonlight Drive, with the action taking place, at least initially, in New York City.
Chosen of the Hart - A Blue Rose Duet in which the player character is chosen to be the next Sovereign.
The Un-Named Universe - The setting of my chat campaign and a tabletop Duet with my wife may see more action via a PbP or a second chat campaign. More details to come.
