Sorry, every 2-3 weeks we do a family trip to the country-side (father in law) and I have only a spotty connection there. Will try to post a background and IC posts despite of this. Wish me luck!
Just to say that once you've submitted your character then feel free to wander in to the IC game, and join Cinara and Leonard-
http://www.enworld.org/forum/playing-game/305740-forges-mountain-king-chapter-1-bottoms-up.html
And perhaps find someone to talk to...
Waiting on two more PCs, hopefully we'll be in play proper by Sunday or Monday.
Cheers Goonalan

As a way of an intro (to me)-
I am a (young) 40-something year old Higher Education Lecturer, I mostly teach Media related subjects, from this semester- Documentary Making, Electronic Game Design (particularly Narrative), Writing for the Screen, Writing for the Radio, Writing for... etc.
My Mrs. allows me to spend far too much of my time shut away in a cramped room surrounded by books and films and... media, a lot of the former are D&D related.
I play D&D every week- Ressurectah is part of a game I DM via Maptools and Skype, we just played the 25th session (of this campaign) last Thursday. The previous campaign ran for 70+ sessions and included Ripjames. I will always be busy on Thursday evenings.
Hairychin is my younger brother.
My brother and his friends introduced me to D&D, I was killed by a Kobold on the way to my first dungeon- my brother and his friends laughed a lot about this. I became a DM the same day. I get to do a lot of laughing as a DM.
My job is sometimes dull (paperwork), sometime enlightening (the students), and more often than not the thing I do between being with the Mrs. and playing D&D.
I do not have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the rules- I do have DDI and the compendium however.
I heart D&D, a lot.
That's enough of me.
Cheers Goonalan.

And here are some rules in general, I apprecite that many or some of you have played this format before but I have not, and I know others are new to it- those that are experts feel free to add to my suggestions.
First off, in a perfect world start every one of your entries by writing your PCs name in the top left hand corner, before you write up your entry- it just makes it easier for me to spot.
Add text for your actions (in character), with a few lines of dialogue- as you have been doing and indicate in the text where any dice rolls go. Example-
Terry looks in to the forlorn chamber (Perception Check), and if he spots nothing moves cautiously in (Stealth Check).
Then just add the dice rolls at the bottom.
Anything OOC then use the OOC tab, easy- I know you've been doing this already, except putting your PCs name in the corner.
Next update- Combat.

Combat in a PBP can take a long time, and worse still if you don't keep up to date with what's going on players can quickly find themselves unsure of what powers they have used, or how many hit points they have left.
Therefore you need a character sheet in play, here are yours-
Oh and only peek at the one with your PCs name on.

I expect... if that's not too stern, I'd like for you to try to keep these as up-to-date as you, they obviously help me to work out what's going on and for you they provide an easy way for you remember what your powers do.
You need to copy and paste these out in to a Word Processing program and then copy them in- hidden as they are now in to your future turns, I don't mind if you don't do this every time- I do need them to be there when we get in to combat- not a big deal, keep it up to date and then copy and paste it in hidden away at the bottom of your replies.
How do you hide it away as I have- simple, although how to write it without having it happen, no spaces-
At the start of the text you wish to hide put
SquareBracketOpen
sblock=
inserttexthere
SquareBracketClose
The insert text here is obviously whatever you want to call the hing that is hidden away.
At the end of the text to be hidden put
SquareBracketOpen
/sblock
SquareBracketClose
And that should be it.
If a hidden text has someone else's name on it then it's not for you, if it has no name on it then please take a look.
Next time more about Combat.
Therefore you need a character sheet in play, here are yours-
Oh and only peek at the one with your PCs name on.

I expect... if that's not too stern, I'd like for you to try to keep these as up-to-date as you, they obviously help me to work out what's going on and for you they provide an easy way for you remember what your powers do.
You need to copy and paste these out in to a Word Processing program and then copy them in- hidden as they are now in to your future turns, I don't mind if you don't do this every time- I do need them to be there when we get in to combat- not a big deal, keep it up to date and then copy and paste it in hidden away at the bottom of your replies.
How do you hide it away as I have- simple, although how to write it without having it happen, no spaces-
At the start of the text you wish to hide put
SquareBracketOpen
sblock=
inserttexthere
SquareBracketClose
The insert text here is obviously whatever you want to call the hing that is hidden away.
At the end of the text to be hidden put
SquareBracketOpen
/sblock
SquareBracketClose
And that should be it.
If a hidden text has someone else's name on it then it's not for you, if it has no name on it then please take a look.
Next time more about Combat.

In Combat.
I will tell you when it's happening, I'll provide a map- the map will have a grid, and lots of markers, if the map is not clear then you'll need to ask- I promise to annotate them and make them as clear as possible.
Combat starts with Initiative but to try to speed things up then when you roll your initiative then add what you are going to do in the first round- with appropriate rolls. If things go wrong, the guy you were going after is killed for example then I'll ask you to re-do, usually you can do this by going back to your post and editing it. If not then do another post.
I'll provide updates, keep track of things (except the stuff on your PC sheets) and the like in combat.
At the end of each round I will also write up, briefly, the action and unless no-one has moved re-do the map.
If it's easier I may just host the map somewhere- we'll see how it goes.
Your combat turns should look a lot like your other turns- name in the corner, description of what you are doing in character, with appropriate dice rolls attached.
However, you need to do the following OOC each turn-
If you want to hide what you are doing then use the sblock, as previous.
The other reason I provided you with your character sheets above is to makle this easy- as I say, just copy and paste, or if your not using a power then describe the action.
Example-
Move: Start a3 Shift to a4.
Standard: Melee Basic Attack (Dagger): +6 vs AC 1d4+5 damage with Combat Advantage & Sneak Attack & Backstab +11 vs AC 1d4+1d6+5 and extra 2d8 damage if hit.
Minor: NA
Free: Sneak Attack & Backstab.
That kind of thing, it seems like a lot of work but remember a PBP doesn't move very fast, I'd like to think we could do a turn in combat in three days...
Oh and remember when you're in combat to add on your character sheet, hidden away as per above.
Any problems so far?

Lastly, a few house rules-
Everyone gets the same XP, everyone Levels up at the same time.
You can use more than one Action Point per encounter but you can only use one Action Point per turn.
I like stunts, a stunt is a new and exciting application of a power or skill to create a cool effect.
A stunt for example could be, I leap from the balcony catch hold of the chandelier swing across and leap at InsertNameofBadGuyHere with my Maul.
All you have to do is translate the above in to a set of actions, so for the above example-
Minor and Move Actions to leap from balcony, catch chandelier and swing with accompanying Acrobatics and Athletics checks.
Standard for leaping Charge attack.
It's up to you to figure out what Skills need to be used, and what Actions are being spent- if it sounds cool then I'll go with it.
If stunts are taking up too much time then I will re-write them, I don't want them to slow things down.
Obviously for the above example if you manage to get great rolls on two out of three then I may ignore any mess-up, cool play wins everytime. If you manage to get great rolls on all three checks then... well, I'll add some cool flavour of my own.
The point is the game in this format is written RP, cool things will happen- I will endeavour to make it so, your job is to try a few things yourself, say some silly stuff and have fun.
I can't think of any other House Rules for now, I'm sure there are a few more but... they escape me.
Anything in any of the above that you need fiurther explanation of, or anything you think I've missed then- don't hesitate to ask.
I think most of it is going to become clear when we get in to our first fracas, here's hoping everyone is still alive to see it.
Cheers Goonalan.
