[QUOTE="DerHauptman, post: 3122614, member: 39988"] Would love to have you play, however, I own no psionic books, nor have I ever allowed psionics in my games. Honestly there is nothing wrong with them as a concept, its just laziness on my part - not wanting to learn a whole other set of rules and adjudicating them always seemed daunting for me. I just made a conscious decision to cut that option out. I do not have ToB but it is on my list of things to buy, therefore dunno what a Warblade is. If you want to scan, retype or send me the complete information on the class I will surely consider it. Got the PBB II like it Knights are good. Not sure what the default setting for this adventure is - perhaps Greyhawk. Honestly, though we won't be going outside the Elsir Vale which is the valley the adventure takes place in so its not going to matter all that much. If you have something from another setting that you are interested in including I think that we can come-up with some plausible reason for it being there. i.e. I am no Eberon fan but if you are and want to play a warforged (cringe) in FR or Greyhawk I think it plausible that rather than be some huge race of robotic (albeit sentient) being manufactured for a grand war, there could be a few made by a wizard somewhere for his use that achieved the same level of abilities. I am scanning the maps and will post them ASAP for you all to include in your backgrounds. Sounds fine to me, I don't have the miniature handbook so will need the marshal write up. Sounds good. Originally, it was my intent to run this as a one shot where the setting didn't really matter all that much using he default gawds and such in the PHB. I think I said it above, if you want to use a specific concept from a particular setting we can make it plausible - its easy enough to add a new god to a one shot. I don't need a detailed cosmology since we are not plane hopping. However, now that I think about it I guess you all need to be from someplace so FR cities or locations will be fine. I am very open (unless it requires me to use a new set of information totally - like psionics, as I mentioned before. If its a class I can just drop in and use with the base rules without too much modification I think it'll be ok. Again, case by case basis. Please send me the information so I will be able to make an informed decision. Lot - you win the simplistic lottery man, barbarian rogue it is! (or whatever you decide) BASICS - If you owe me some class information send it to me via-email: PROMETHEUSBOUND (at) COMCAST (DOT) NET LETS GET STARTED: Character Stats: Whatever fits your concept (within reason) I have always let my players just pick their stats and its been very successful for me. I have mature players - I assume you are the same. This lets people play what they want. Usually my players choose a weakness if they have a lot of higher stats to balance it out. This will enable you to play some of the classes that require two good scores - unlike normal point buy. Character Class level: We are starting at level 5. You may play an LA race up to +3 (on a case by case basis), however, I will need the data if I don't have it. Also, if you want to know the EXP (for using it for item creation) its 1/2 way between 5th and 6th, that way you can make some stuff without suffering too much. Equipment: (PHB, KALAMARK PHB, MERCENARYS (AEG), ARMS AND EQUIPMENT GUIDE, DMG I&II, etc all have acceptable mundane equipment lists that are ok for you to use. Also, if there is something in a DRAGON magazine I probably have that too.) You will all have a mount suitable for your race with saddle and equipment for free. Likewise, you can have (up to what you can carry of course) in mundane items as you wish for free as well. As for magic items, I will accept what is core and in WOTC books (may ask for the stats if I don't have the book) without question. Items from other D20 books will likely be ok, just ask first. Starting wealth is as per DMG for 5th level (most expensive item 50% of that) Background - I will post some more information on what needs to be in the character backgrounds. I like to reward good backgrounds with extra skills and feats based on the story so the more specific you are about your past the more likely you are to get free stuff. NOTE: The party will already know each other and have worked with each other before. Also, I allow the use of hirelings in the game for hauling equipment, (serving a knight) or just general camp security stuff. I firmly believe a group of experienced adventurers would bring support staff for their comfort. Also, the group tactics rules in DMG II will be available for you to use so feel free to talk to one another about that here as well. This should get us started and allow me some time to make a comprehensive document for your use - I will likely add things not take stuff away. If you want to use something just put it down and I will most likely allow it. Attached is the character sheet format. Starting a Thread in RG Don't put the character there until approved. [/QUOTE]
