I’d like to get another four or five players for our 3.5E DnD game Crossed Paths. This game has been going for nearly two years, and the players have risen from level 2 to level 5. We’ve lost several key players over the past few months and the game has ground to a halt. The current players are keen to continue, and I’ll expect them to help bring new players up to date.
I’d like players to be able to post several times a week. We use core rules only. Exceptions must be approved by the DM. There is no Rogue’s Gallary, as there is the potential for intercharacter conflict. Any alignment is allowed, assuming the background fits. (I think it might be difficult to fit in CN or CE PCs, since the characters must be motivated by more than just money or adventure.) I should also note that the party is currently in the 1979 Judges Guild module, The Caverns of Thracia, so if you’re familiar with that one, don’t apply.
This game is set in a fantasy version of the Roman Era Eurasia. The party is currently in the Crimean peninsula, but characters could have their origins virtually anywhere. I would prefer that most of the new players assume the persona of an existing PC, whose player has ‘retired’. This is because each character has a defined role to play in the plot. I will allow one player to introduce a new PC. Current PCs are a human (gypsy) rogue type, and an elven Wizard. Characters who need new players are:
1. Tullius, a male human Roman soldier who wears a chainshirt, and fights two handed with a battle axe and shortsword. Wears a magical amulet, the powers of which are known only to him. (Velmont)
2. Brioc Ap llwyd male human (Britain) Druid. Weilds a +1 scimitar, reptilian humanoid Bane. Party leader since inception. Has a human servent, Mendicus, and a wolf animal companion. Must have at least 3 levels as Druid. (Dr. Zombie)
3. Octar: Male Human Roman soldier. Wears breastplate, heavy shield, longsword, and magical black mighty (+4) long compositebow of unknown magic properties. Str 18 (Darkmaster)
4. Dhormium: Male Dwarf Cleric of Clangeddin Silverbeard. Breastplate and dwarven waraxe. Scroll of magic circle against evil, restoration, and remove curse. Must have at least 3 levels as cleric. (Barak)
For all PCs, take a default ability score array of 18, 16, 15, 14, 13, 10 (+1 for 4th level). Create the PC as you see fit w/in the boundries set above. PCs start @5th level, and are quite close to 6th. This is a low-magic campaign. Equip your PCs with two masterwork items and whatever else you want (w/in reason) from the base equipment list. All magic items are listed above. Further details of each PC will be forthcoming.
Interested players reply with your preferred character choice, and your secondary pick. If you prefer to play a new PC, there are a several options, which we can discuss via email. Post here and send your ideas to kiwipie at Juno dot com.
