The Urkana campaign has been running since early 2002. It is currently conducted Saturday nights on MIRC. The campaign started with only 4 players and has grown to where there are usually 8 or more players at any one time. Other players are waiting for an opening.
In January of 2004, Geo started a second group, which became known as the Southern Group or SG because of the relative adventuring area. As initially envisioned, SG was run to give players who had little experience a chance to learn about the game. This slowly evolved to where Geo was having a brief discussion at the beginning of each session. These still continue with Geo now focusing on Game Mastering aspects.
SG ran 3 sets of characters from level 1 to level 5. Now SG is taking some of those characters and working on the middle levels of experience. The goal is to reach level 10 sometime in the spring of 2006. From there, Geo will have a discussion with the players and either go on to higher levels or build some new characters up, either levels 1 - 5 or levels 6 - 10 or perhaps both.
The original group became known as the Northern group or NG. The story arc that it was following ended in late summer of 2004. Some of the players are still with Urkana, having started in or migrated to SG. Perhaps some of the characters from that group can join when we again reach the levels that had been reached in NG.
