Mind Thieves (FR Campaign) Recruiting

Mordmorgan the Mad · 9th April 2005, 06:49 AM

I'm looking for 4-6 Players for a Forgotten Realms game starting soon. It starts in the Dalelands, but the Characters will be spending much of thier time in the Underdark.

Character Creation Rules:

Stats will be created with 27 Point Buy
No LA (level adjustment) races or Monster races will be permitted (so don't ask! )
Characters must be either from the Dalelands, or a nearby area (i.e. Cormyr, Sembia, or points north).
No evil alignments please. Changing to evil later on is something I'm willing to consider, but don't count on it.
All Core D&D material will be allowed, as will FR material on a case-by-case basis. No 3rd party material will be allowed.

If you'd like to be considered for the game, please post a character concept.

What starting level? 1st?

Are you defining Core as "Anything by WOTC"- including "Completes"? or "PHB only?"

I have a inkling for a Paladin, possibly of Torm and multiclass with Ranger; or of Helm and mulitclass with Fighter.

Dwarven fighter with racial substitution level from Races of Stone. Maybe starting as ranger.

Edit: or if Wilphe decides to go with ranger then a straight fighter. I was thinking starting as a ranger because he's going to be wearing heavy armor, so some ranks in move silently could be useful. Wilphe could focus on the more ranger-y aspects

Wilphe · 9th April 2005, 06:02 PM

I'm looking to go Ranger/Paladin; but don't intend wearing heavy armour

How about a human cleric of Tempus, sent from Cormyr to spread the word of War? (you know it's coming, it's the natural state of society for culture to clash and the strongest dominate the less fit.)

I'll come up with the rest of a good sheet as I pull out books

Can I use complete divine for the feats and skills? Or just phb and fr stuff?

Sorry, but I didn't expect so many relpies so soon. Core is PHB only. For the purposes of a FR game, it also includes FR stuff (by approval). Character options that aren't core are still open, but I'll need to approve everything before we start playing.

Candide: Glad to see you're interested. I'm open to the Warlock, but I'll email you to work out the specifics of background and where we'll be taking your character.

Others: Keep in mind you're going to have to have a good reason for being in the Dales and we'll be spending a lot of time under ground.
