Awakening of the Nymerians. - The preparation

[Rayex]

Your head is throbing.
You see stars and strange colors.
After a short while your sight return.
You are lying on your back in a forest glade.
It is summer, and the birds are singing.
"That's weird" you think.
"I though it was winter..."

You've been searcing the old ruins for the Fruit of Cleansing when you met up with Thukk, the minotaur.
He claimed to live in the ruins, and knew where the fruit was. When he led you there, a woman wearing red flowing robes, a beautiful white wolf at her side, was waiting for you with a smile.
That was when you heard the deep growl from behind. Everything seem to happen at once. Thukk charged you from behind, the wolf attack from the front, and the woman started to chant. It was all over in seconds. The woman spread her arms wide in a dramatic gesture and a brilliant light shone from her palms.
Then there was blackness.

This will be a game sett in my homebrew world of Nymeria, and it will be Nymeria's first visit to the world of RPGs.
Nymeria is not a world where everything is set in stone, it is a world of fantasy and imagination.
I work at a school, with kids age 6-8, and this is the world I have story-sessions from once a week. For some months now, I've wanted to bring Nymeria and RPG together, and finally I know where I want to start it.
Seeing as d&d 3.5 is the only system I feel comfortable enough with to be a GM, it was an easy choice to do, and I do think it is a system that fits the world well.
I will probably use some pre-done Instant Adventures from Fantasy Flight Games, if they fit into the overall story-arch.

I don´t want to over-extend, but one of the games I´m in doesn´t seem to really start. I have a human XPH telepath there that deserves an opportunity.

 

[Rayex]

I have no experience with Psionic characters.
That being said, I dont mind you playing one

No restrictions on races or classes? The latest Dragon magazine has a guide for playing dragons as 20 level classes. It would be fun to try them out if I could. Or maybe one of the monster classes from savage species. I've been looking for a chance to try playing monsters for a while now.

 

[rangerjohn]

Hey Rayex, I would be interested. Will come up with a concept when I see what the party needs.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

I'll work up a half-elf Druid 2/Sorcerer 2 conjuration specialist. Her name is Lilly White. I used her in a game that died quick. She'd be perfect.

Short bio.. Lilly was raised by the fae folk. her mortal parents had left her for dead. She has a "natural affinity" with animals and magical creatures. and her elven heritage lends her to magic.
She is the archtypical young girl who has found her way into the world and now has to learn to live there. She is a mixture of snow white and red riding hood.
she's got the body of an adult but the instincts of a youth still.

 

[Drakknyte32]

Well I decided to go with a combat oriented monster class instead of the dragon. Right now I'm leaning towards the Troll class but I might take one of the more exotic ones like Treant or Griffin instead.

By monster class I mean the ones presented in the appendix of Savage Species that allow you to gain creatures Hit Dice and Special abilities as character levels.

 

[ferretguy]

Well could definitly be interested in this. I have a elf rogue/monk (was dark elf aka sword and sorcery but will change easily enough)could work out with this. Won't be able to have him up until tomorrow night because of fathers day. Hope that'll be ok.

Hey! the Griffin idea would work well with Lilly. They could know each other and she would be well versed in your body language.

Argent Silvermage:
Sounds great. I think it fill fit the world well.

Drakknyte32:
No, no restrictions. As long as you start with an ECL of 4 or less, its all up to you. I would actually like it if there was one or more monster races.

ferretguy:
If you want him to stay a dark elf, thats fine by me also

rangerjohn:
Sure, I'll put you up as a player, and you just figure out what you want
