[QUOTE="EarlyBird, post: 7188968, member: 6899077"] I was thinking of running a game on the site here. And after getting somethings out of the attic I think I found what I wish to run. It would be no problem to convert this over to 5e and would probably be fun to convert some of the NPCs over. There would be no special rules on character creation - - using the stat array (15,14,13,12,10,8) - races/classes from the PHB - 1st lvl w/max hp and will roll for hp every lvl after that - feats and multi-classing allowed Not a great build for characters I know but I believe it is the RP that should be focused on and your abilities to do x amount of dmg per hit or cast a certain spell. I will be rewarding xp for encounters "survived", which means those you bypass or run from and manage to evade, give you just as much xp as those you fight and beat to a pulp. I haven't DMed in a while, but am excited to get back into telling stories with a group of imaginative people that are looking to have fun. [B]EDIT 1:[/B] So In my mind I was wondering about the staging of this game and have thought about going even further back than just Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil - Back to the actual adventure itself and play from the Temples beginnings. Here's my thinking: [U]Lvls 1-8 Original adventure[/U] - The characters start off in Hommlet and adventure in and around the town/moathouse and learn about a cult using the old temple as its staging area. The players infiltrate and destroy the cult bring peace to the area. [U]Lvls 8-15 Returning to the Temple[/U] - 9 yrs later trouble starts brewing once more in the area around Hommlet as a new cult rises in the area. The party that once took on the Temple of Elemental Evil is called upon once more and this time the stakes are higher. [U]Lvl 15-20 Stopping the cult once and for all[/U] - Learning what truly lies behind the cults power, the party is ready to stop them from every bothering the realm again. Little dramatic and a very big undertaking, but think of the hours and hours of fun to be had.
