[QUOTE="hafrogman, post: 6689757, member: 8858"] Hello, after a long lifetime of being a player, I have begun DMing for my in-person gaming group. In an effort to expand my horizons, I want to start up a game here at ENWorld too. I'm looking to run Hoard of the Dragon Queen. I'm sure it's been run before, many times. So just to be clear, I trust you all, and don't particularly care if you've played through it before or even if you've run it yourself. We're just here to have fun. [B]What I am looking for:[/B] 4-6 players (first come - first served). Sorry to be a stick-in-the-mud, but I am specifically looking for HEROES. When your character comes across a town under attack by force(s) unknown, your first instinct is to run heedlessly into the fray, seeking to help people. Beyond that, I don't particularly care if your motivation is virtue or vainglory, as long as you can justify your actions and play well with others. [B]Character Creation:[/B] 27 Point Buy 3rd level characters (Fixed HP past 1st level) Standard starting equipment plus 50gp to spend as you see fit. [B]Backgrounds:[/B] I'd like to have the characters have shared history and interconnections. Not everyone has to know everyone, but please find/create a link to at least two other characters, I hope everyone will be flexible and accommodating with their backgrounds to this end. Leave room to fit other people. As far as Greenest itself is concerned, the adventure does present bonds to tie you to the town if you want to take one (modified as needed for the above), or use it as a base for you own ideas. [sblock=bonds]1. Leosin Erlanthar, a wandering monk, once saved your life. He’s sent urgent word for you to meet him in a small town called Greenest. Looks like it’s time to pay off that debt. 2.
