Hi Rapalyn! Would my Convergences TTRPG project in my profile page interest you? If you wish to join straight away, enter our official discord server so we can discuss things better: https://discord.gg/xpzHkEMabq
Along with this, I will give a brief description of the world and kind of set the scene:

Convergences is set on Kigazdar, a world remade by an entity that established the very laws of the universe to make it beautiful and in perfect order, where creation and destruction are guided by the flow of her Crystalline Water, the eldritch energy that guides the laws of physics, chemistry and creation as a whole. Due to misunderstandings and the unattended need to be recognized by humanity, the entity used the Crystalline Water to reshape life, something that only came to be accidentally with several factors having aligned within the flow of the universe, turned it towards life, having altered processes of evolution so races that exist as dark mirrors of a humanity long gone to mock and torment them, made wrathful gods for each planet, altered living beings and directly changing their biology to create mindless monsters, and bend the rules of the universe she had to created to meddle with the Earth.

Due to a conflict with her son, the entity was killed, letting her Crystalline Water leak from her decomposing body unto Earth, forever altering the living and non-living aspects of it. 

That is all for now! There is too much to say in a reply, but in a nutshell, it's a world with a lot of magic-realism! That seems ideal for what you seek to do!

Hi! Sorry for the delay, I was sleeping, thank you for the interest!

I'm glad to see your interest! Since even if you think you are not on the same level as others in the team, every one is joining to also improve on their own skills and portfolio. The fact that you are open to create a visual identity for the horrors hidden in Kigazdar is already ideal!
And writing on top of that is very valuable! I do need someone to write alongside me to get things going and implement more and more ideas, these examples are all very welcome too, as it enriches the cultural weight of all nations and their different languages.
I will send a message in discord, and invite you to our server where the team can better coordinate and interact!

Hello! Thank you for reaching out with this unique offer, I will gladly look into it and post!

Glad to see you still have interest for our world!
You can find it by simply clicking on my profile, the page to Convergences will then show up, there you can read a bit more about it and also find the discord server link on the bottom of the intro text!

Hi! Thank you for reaching out!
I wouldn't mind having another composer into my team, and after seeing your content and reply, I have to clarify a few things:
- Convergences won't be a videogame, at least in the foreseeable future, it will be a tabletop RPG.
- Are you willing to create music for scenes in the game, such as being inside somewhere cozy, mysterious, dark and scary, battles, significant climaxes and sad moments? Or in other words, an OST for Convergences?
- Matching music for main themes, Convergences trailers and other promotional material that uses audio?

Let me know if 1 or all of these areas match what you want to produce, and if you do, feel free to enter the discord server in my project's page!

Seeking Artists and Writers for the Convergences team!

Hi there! Convergences is a a tabletop RPG project of a fantastic world left shattered by an entity who designed gods and races in a mocking reflection of a humanity that no longer exists out of hatred. It has the "Make your own magic" genre, with the world's magic, and its eldritch and cosmic forces of which no mortal should ever have the right to wield, were discovered mere 2 years ago in the conjoined land of Kigazdar!

We currently have a team of 3, with an artist, composer and me included, but we still require more people to bring this project to life!
We are looking for another artist or animator, one that can make the rulebook illustrations as well as promotional material in video media. If you have a particular affinity for dark, gritty, body horror and general horror art, please make sure to enter in contact with us in our official discord server in my page!
As for a writer, we seek one that has experience with TTRPGs or Game Mastering, so that they may aid in the writing of deep lore about the nations of Kigazdar, personal interactions between important NPCs and whatever else the ideas can think of! Not only that but also help in formatting the rulebook text and keeping texts clean and easy to understand!

Although these 2 roles are important and most sought out for now, if you happen to have genuine interest in our game and its world, feel free to contact us in the discord server anytime if you wish to contribute or simply be part of this new community! Be mindful that I have no budget yet and the project is NOT nearly complete!

Hi goth moon!

It's fine! We really do live in different time zones, from what I have seen it's a 5 hours difference, but we can work with that! Hm I will have to look into that, but just as a heads-up, it's far from complete! The rulebook is still not written out yet as making an entire TTRPG by myself is quite hard and the pdf I sent is simply the introduction to it, but there is still a good portion made for the mechanics and such. Regardless, I'm very very happy to see my project get your kind of passion and interest! It really goes a long way to motivate me to make something great and beloved.

That's perfectly fine! There's plenty in the world that doesn't involve body horror, it is more restricted to certain magical afflictions connected to Crystalline Water and the art of Death in Alchemy, a bit in Medicry too. All of your abilities will be very appreciated! The world's design is something I have conceptually in mind as many nations and their culture/fashion are a mesh of different cultures respective to their rough location in Kigazdar, so your degree should definitely help, I also have a few design references! And the miniatures are for sure another good thing to have for later with 3D printing.

Honestly, the fact that Convergences is going to be your first experience is already an honor to me, I already find you extremely talented and creative, so watching you improve as you create is going to be an equally amazing first experience to me.

As for the time, likewise, I'm in university and so everything is not nearly as developed as I wished, even though progress is slow, it is progress! Also I really do appreciate the passion, it is exactly people like you who I wish to work with, and as for the credit, no problem at all to me, all due credit and work to the portfolio will be given.

For the questions:
- My plans for now are to make Convergences expand it into an open license franchise, with the completed TTRPG itself being the main objective to be released. The rest is up to fate and business I'd say, but I do hope one day to reach out to media producers for adaptations of the world, be it for movies, series, anime and whatever else it would be possible to achieve.
- Definitely yes, anyone that contributed to Convergences will have income. I cannot guarantee that there will be income since it would depend on the success of sales, kickstarters and general fundraising, but if there is, everybody in the team will be rewarded.
- My roles will be of a writer, for both game mechanics and lore, and team coordinator so to guide and steer the rest of the team to something I envision, though of course still considering your and the team's feedback and opinions. Occasionally image editor since I am getting used to that and perhaps (and hopefully) much later in the future an artist too to collaborate on the art department.
- This is my first project that I have publicly announced, though far from the only one I have in mind for the future! Once Convergences is all good and finished, I'll move straight into 1 of 2 other worlds cooking up in my head, perhaps be totally different from a TTRPG, they might even become an animated show or digital game!

So, before I ask of you a sample so to both introduce you to a core part of Convergences and get you in on the quite substantial details, I ask that you please enter what will be the official discord server for Convergences: https://discord.gg/93SH6kybQG. Even if you don't use discord, I still recommend it for better and more organized communication, it is also the only social media I feel most familiar and adapted to.

Thank you a lot for the interest and reply, have a good day.

Hi Goth moon!

Thank you so much for reaching out, I genuinely didn't expect a response this quickly after waking up, and it means a lot that you took your time to look at Convergences and send your portfolio. I had a look at your work and it is genuinely impressive! And I'd love to hear more about what caught your interest in my project and what kind of contribution you'd be interested in making. Since Convergences is still early in development, I'm figuring out what roles are most needed, and I want to make sure whatever we build together is something you'd actually enjoy working on. And from what I have seen, you seem perfect to finally give this world its visual identity.

Now a few questions:

• What parts of the concept impressed/interested you the most?
• Are you interested in character/creature design, environment work, item, magic system art, or something else?
• What is your current availability, and what would a fair working arrangement look like to you?

No pressure or rush, I'm pretty excited to have someone interested and reaching out to me, specially someone so talented!

Convergences

Looking for a general team for my new TTRPG game project!

Hi folks! This is my first time here in Itch.io, but I come here with a matured concept of a fantastic world left shattered by an entity who designed gods and races in a mocking reflection of a humanity that no longer exists out of hatred. It's also a TTRPG game with the "Make your own magic" genre, with the world's magic ,and its eldritch and cosmic forces of which no mortal should ever have the right to wield, were discovered mere 2 years ago in the conjoined land of Kigazdar!

There is a load of lore about the cosmology already established, as well as a initial portion of the world of Kigazdar itself and its nations. A good portion, I'd say 60 or 70% of the mechanics are already completed but still needing heavy revision and more minds on it, after all I'm quite new to game balance and TTRPG making as a whole, but there's still quite a lot made! I will soon share what has been done and what is yet do be done in my first devlog.

Unfortunately, I have no budget to keep a paid team, but I'm looking for anyone with any art, tabletop game balance, game master, loremaster and marketing experience to help me with pretty much anything, be it to create a visual face for the world with artwork by an interested artist, a game balancer to balance the mechanics to be fun and challenging, a GM to create a good flow for games to happen with both mechanics and lore meshing together, and finally a loremaster to brainstorm and connect all the dots in the lore alongside me for a rich world.

If you have any interest in this project, please check out my project page on Convergences and feel free to contact me about anything so we can reach an agreement! Here's the discord server link to our official community: https://discord.gg/pWV9H8rCZE
