[QUOTE="Blue_Kryptonite, post: 1880617, member: 10949"] Following tradition, here’s the format: We’ll do Die Rolls and OOC info in double parentheses ((like this)). Roll your dice, post the standard formula ((Spot Check at +4, roll of 1d20=6, Total=+10)). Feel free to dumb it down a bit ((Spot 4 + 6=10)) or elaborate any modifiers individually ((Spot Check at +2, Elf racial bonus +2 =+4, roll of 1d20=6, Total=+10)), whatever suits your style. Speech should be written normally, with quotations. It can be in colour if you like, I’ll use multiple colours to keep NPCs straight in conversations. Use [B]Bold[/B] and [I]Italics[/I] for [B]volume[/B] and [I]emphasis[/I] respectively in speech, if you like. Thoughts can be Thought Ballooned [COLOR=WHITE].o0([/COLOR]Like this.[COLOR=WHITE])[/COLOR]. Psionic communication should be modified [COLOR=WHITE].o0[/COLOR][COLOR=GREEN]<<[/COLOR]like this[COLOR=GREEN]>>[/COLOR]. Colour in thought brackets as shown is encouraged, but not required. I'll make use of Spoiler Tags to pass notes, [SPOILER]like this[/SPOILER]. No peeking. :) After each round of posts (completed conversation + action, or complete combat), I’ll include a quick summary of the action and resolution as the beginning of my next narrative post. Without further delay: - - - - - Scene: Nameless Legion HQ: The Clearing. Exterior, Dawn. The sun rises over the demiplane, casting the shadow of the Hawk ziggurat over the barracks compound of the team. Revile sounds as the shining blue-white orb clears the pinnacle of the large pyramid. Immediately after, the mess call summons the hungry or those merely looking for company to the Meal. An assortment of being some identifiable, some not, share duty on Mess and share tables as brothers, sisters, and indeterminate things in arms. The usual variety of foods is laid out buffet-style, enough for all tastes and diets. Its not the Platinum Plate in the best Waterdeep establishments, nor is it as regionally quirky and interesting as the spicy treats of the Grand Bazaar in Huzuz. But, it is hot, and not half bad. The after-meal cleanup is interrupted by the tolling of the mission bell summoning the D.E.L.V.E. team to the Portal Chamber. Within the massive stone chamber at the bottom center of the pyramid, the Portal Arch stands ready, but quiet. Behind the permanent Wall Of Force, a small team of specialists monitor events on countless worlds. Paymaster Hawk beckons you to the side chamber to be given your assignment. <OOC: Any actions or prep or intro play you want to get out of the way, in any stage of the above, go ahead. I’ll post the next move tomorrow or Wednesday if nothing happens between you all, or as soon as it dies down, but no later than Thursday. :) > [/QUOTE]
