[QUOTE="Paxus Asclepius, post: 1443620, member: 15175"] I've missed Dark Sun since the day I last used the word THAC0; with the new rules and the rediscovery of much of my old material, I've decided to give a revival a shot. This thread will cover recruitment, character creation, and OOC chat for a game using the rules found [URL=http://www.athas.org/releases/ds3]here[/URL]. I'd prefer players who are A) competent, mature roleplayers, B) willing and able to post at a minimum of once every day, and C) familiar with the Dark Sun setting, but have not played, run, or read the Black Spine campaign recently enough to remember spoilers (or capable of ignoring their OOC knowledge). Character creation notes: 36 point buy; for 20 points, a 19 may be purchased, and for 25, a 20. Characters will be 12th level. Thri-kreen level adjustment is increased to +2, making them ECL 4 before character class. All characters will gain the Talented or Wild Talent feat (in the Dark Sun 3 material) as a bonus feat. The Mindscapes psionic combat system will replace that from the Psionics Handbook; characters without psionic classes will be able to use the modes relating to the key ability used by their Talent, and will be subject to, but not capable of initiating, mindscape combat. (If you do not possess the Mindscapes book, and do not wish to purchase it, the relevant material will be made available). And most importantly of all, for the game to run smoothly: I intend that all party members should already know each other, work well together, and be willing to pursue the primary plot hook. This means that backstory and personality should be as developed as possible. [/QUOTE]
