Hi! Apologies for taking me so long to get into the thread
Looks like a lot of my choices have already been chosen (yay for me!). Frankly, I'm most experienced with 3.5 but with the exception of 4e I'm good with learning new systems. To me, it's more about the character and setting in a PBP then the rules. Those always get worked out.
I have been imagining POTC / Indy in my mind for a setting and when you think about it, it's supposed to be low level magic but there are quirky items here and there and lots of fun monsters. Adding healing to that would be fabulous.
I was thinking a roguish - sassy lass although I don't have any kind of specific character in mind yet. Usually that type of female is a stowaway but I'm okay with figuring out a post for her if that works better. Like Fenris said, I don't think I would want to be evil yet I also don't want to be the fuddy duddy law abiding guy. An actual Pirate would be fun but I'm for whatever works for everyone, sounds like Privateer. I'm super happy with starting at 5th level, I hate starting at 1st level with all my hopes and dreams for my character that then die before getting out of 2nd level, lol.
I'm not opposed to combat at all, keeps things exciting, but I'm hoping for a game where the characters will actually interact with each other, too many times there is just dead space waiting for the GM to post again.
I'm excited about this game!!
