You might have to wait one. I currently have a Resources of zero, so it might be hard for me to buy that drink. You are welcome to Help me persuade my brother for moola though. Otherwise your plan is perfect. Poor Vellekhyr, don't worry, we'll get you sprung.

So does Vellekhyr badger this guard for a bit, while we move on, or does the guard send him packing? Or both?

Ferrantos pulls Vellekhyr by the arm and whispers, “Come on. That Dwarf is going to dry up and turn to dust any moment. Just let the Corporal enjoy his veneral disease or whatever that is on his face and we’ll go get you set up. Let’s visit my brother for funds before we hit the Provisioner.”...

No worries about Avros. We'll be futzing around this keep for a bit, I'm sure. Also, maybe Vellekhyr could roll Oratory (4 dice), or attempt a beginner's luck roll for Intimidation (6 dice, double Ob). Just roll those dice. Tests will improve you. Of course you've got to understand that if you...

Now relieved of his burden, Ferrantos steps a little livelier, “That’s right, Dwarf. We’ll go get the beer money from my brother. Constance, I’d like you to meet him too. Also, Vellekhyr, don’t be a mope. We’ll get you some clothes, and some armor for when we go spelunking, oh, and some...

Ferrantos shouts from the path leading up to the Keep. He has a large bag slung hobo-style from his spear, "I'm Ferrantos and I'm here to see my brother, Auromos. The rest of these guys are with me." He pauses and wheezes, "Don't worry, Vellekhyr. My brother owes me tons of money. He'll get us...

I like that. Let's not worry too much about back story. How about a really basic understanding like this: Vellekhyr and Ferrantos are traveling together from Master Vide's. They meet Aurvang on the road, and help show him the way to the Keep near the Caves of Chaos he wants to see so badly...

The intro sort of makes it sound like we are all together. I know that Vellekhyr and Ferrantos are coming here together. Is Constance already at the Keep? Are Aurvang and Avros hanging out there already, or would you like to meet on the road?

I like this Paladin. I think you have a solid concept, which makes everything easier. I think it's interesting how young he turned out. You should play that up. Also, can I make a suggestion for your third belief? Make it something you can knock out in a session or two. Maybe even something that...

Happy to have you. Check out the first page of the thread for a little intro that Engrishonly put together and check out the Grand Duchy of Karameikos on wikipedia if you want to know a bit about the area. If you want to play a human paladin, be sure to read up on the Faith rules. They are...

I definitely agree about 4th ed. But that's what made Castle Ravenloft so great. Did you guys ever play Hero Quest the board game. It was mad fun, but after playing once, we always made our own rules. Castle Ravenloft shouldn't be thought of as bad D&D, but as rad Hero Quest. Once every couple...

Oohh. Is the original intro all super old-school D&D? If so, we should definitely do that. Maybe you could post it when you get a chance and give us a little time to think on it before we "officially" start? This is great. I get to have the nostalgia without actually having to play 4th ed...

Okay, so we've still got the four of us. How do we get down to gettin' down? I haven't played in this forum before, is there a particular format of how we state intents, rolls, etc? I see the little rolling dice function there. Where should we start? Maybe wherever fine drinks are served in...

HandofMystara, I sent you a PM with my email if you want to g-chat about your character. I can help you build those basic stats or generate some belief and instinct ideas to bring to the thread.

According to all the wiki's and maps that I was looking at, Rockhome is to the north and west of Karameikos. Alfheim is west of that, but still bordering it. Perhaps Vellekhyr and I were near the border of Karameikos and Alfheim at Master Vide's before coming here.

I really like this axe thing. I don't think I'll change my beliefs right away, but maybe it's sharp enough to make a stone bleed? If not, perhaps if I just had the time to study it... Macguffins FTW!

HandofMystara, Think of something that your character needs a sorcerer for. Maybe you need a magic item made? Or researched? Perhaps someone is cursed? Conflict within the party is fun, but you need to find an even bigger reason to be forced to work with us. What could lead a Traladorian to...

That's a good point. It might make sense to just know her rather than have an oath to her already. Yeah, the third instinct should be more specific. Do you always know the way out of a cave? Do you always know how far underground you are? Do you always have your axe out? Your instinct...

We might have to figure that out in game. Ferrantos would certainly accept the back up. However, it seems like Constance, with her missing sister and her persuasion skills might be a good person to coax your dwarf into bringing a bunch of humans and an elf along. Check out what Kobold Stew has...

Looks awesome. Do you want to start out knowing any of us from before? Or do you think that we would obviously recruit you since you are generally rockin' at going into caves? Also, when you are a human, shields are free with your suit of armor. If you aren't springing for the Dwarven shield, I...
