    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5e] Planescape- In Through the Out Door (Full)

    For those characters who are newly adrift on the Outer Planes, I think needing to find and forge new bonds is fitting. Not having a flaw is a little iffier, since it's just one flaw and hardly likely to be the only one, for any of us, but like I said, filling out those details is not mandatory...

    I think we'll keep this OOC going, at least for now. Maybe once I've got more of a handle on how the community group works we'll head over there en masse. @Kiraya_TiDrekan Not knowing your flaws is a flaw unto itself, and wanting to better yourself is a bond. ;) But you can leave those out for...

    ...By ‘up shortly’ I guess I meant ‘right now’, apparently. MAGIC ITEMS We’ll be using the variant rules for identifying a magic item. Experimentation and the identify spell are required to learn what magic items do. You can only identify a magic item during a short or long rest if it’s...

    Kiraya_TiDrekan Bonus points for using Transmutate. Approved, very much approved. And I'm happy to accommodate Drone's accidental reactivation in-game. Sounds like a plot hook to me. :D I like the idea of the Drone being its own focus, and all of its equipment eventually being part of its...

    Shadowrun: For Us It Was a Tuesday [OOC]

    Hi Queenie. :) The movie Blade Runner, definitely the movie. The book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? is a whole different animal, pun fully intended. Nothing against it, but the stark neon haze and sudden violence of the movie codified a genre. I've heard the adventure game was great...

    @Queenie For nonmagical equipment, take anything that makes sense for your character. Use your discretion, and remember your carrying limitations as a pixie (or ghost, etc). The key limiting factor is that, whatever else you're carrying, you don't have much liquid cash. @Pembinasa Was that a...

    Caillou nods assent to the captain. "Change of plans, lads," he croaks, and glances back at Lorelei. They share a look. The bird dips his head, and tilts his gaze toward the lady captain. Lorelei grins her assent, understanding. "Come come, boy. Time for we to make some noise, oui?" she says...

    Shadowrun: For Us It Was a Tuesday [OOC]

    *expresses interest* I've never gotten the chance to sit down and play an actual game, but I've pieced my way through some of the older sourcebooks and played Shadowrun Returns/Dragonfall. And I'm a big fan of Blade Runner, Neuromancer, Snow Crash, and Snatcher, if that helps.

    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5e] Planescape- In Through the Out Door (Full)

    Graydon sounds like a good fit, and I like him. And I think that versatility and guile probably trump raw power at low levels. An illusionist should be most interesting. :) Strictly by the numbers you have two spell picks too many for a 3rd level wizard. Given what other characters are getting...

    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5e] Planescape- In Through the Out Door (Full)

    Planescape comes down pretty heavily on the vague side of the Blood War's origin, with the upshot being that it's generally such a gigantic, pointless waste that the why of it hardly matters-- knowing wouldn't change anything. There's a lot of history of the Lower Planes, but it's largely...

    CanadienneBacon Well, I've set up the group and Rogues Gallery here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showwiki.php?title=Campaign:In-Through-the-Out-Door-A-Rogues-Gallery First time for everything, so I imagine there'll be an adjustment period.

    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5e] Planescape- In Through the Out Door (Full)

    Hey, it happens. In any other format other than PbP, you wouldn't be expected to check in every day, so if you need some time, that's fair. Bits and pieces of official adventures might make their way into the game, but while I do have an underlying arc to start with, this game will mostly be...

    Torment and Great Modron March would be high on my list of must-haves for anyone setting out to run Planescape. Uncaged is also excellent for setting the tone of Sigil-- even the most powerful NPCs might be people lifelong Cagers have never heard of, and the most influential denizens aren't...

    That oughtta tide me over. I didn't know about Glantri. What's your background with Planescape, by the way? As for communication, there'll be that community group I mentioned setting up-- basically a sort of mini-forum for the game. But for the most part it's just this thread, our eventual IC...

    Pembinasa It definitely works for me. I actually don't know much about Mystara, so hey, I can learn something too. And on that note, party's over. Or finished. Recruiting has come to a close. :) And with character sheets coming in like clockwork, I suppose I'll look into setting up a community...

    goatunit Eurid looks like he's all set. :) From what I can see of his personality in your background traits, I like him already. He sounds like he'll bring a nice counterpoint to the party's more...energetic members, and no doubt the unusual neither living nor dead status of both Picayune and...

    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5e] Planescape- In Through the Out Door (Full)

    Belief shapes the planes, and player beliefs count double. The way Planescape always played it, all myths are true. If there was a discrepancy between in-game lore and real-world historicity, then the problem was with the real world. After all, even if we know what the the ancient Egyptians...

    Interesting. I sense Psychonauts-esque mindscape escapades in the party's future... Don't ask me how I know that. Fenris The Grecian ideal, and the pastoral idyll. Nice. Not for nothing do the faerie wilds of Arborea abut the foot of Mount Olympus. Just saying. So if Oz is a guide to young...

    You make a persuasive (ha-ha) case. I don't mind keeping Performance for those specific situations you're mentioning. I also don't mind instrument proficiencies simply being a measure of what you can use your Performance roll for. It's just that, with tool or weapon proficiencies, you don't...
