That's fine. Just don't get too carried away wth adding stuff, please.
You know, I had been thinking going into this that this might be the last
PbP I DM. While I was getting cleaned up this morning, however, I had an idea to run a game that didn't use any sourcebooks at all for character creation. I'd adjudicate the story according to whichever singular rulesbook I was using, but players would be given true carte blanche to create a PC. What if I just said, "Hey, here's the background on the game, you can reasonably expect these kinds of situations during play, make a character but do so without using a rulebook."
I think it might force people to think more about the kind of character they play rather than considering just the numbers and making the background fit the numbers. This may sound counterintuitive, but I'd also lay money that people would suddenly get a lot more conservative with their stats.
And yet another word from our sponsors
