[Contemplating] Dragonlance Classics

[Jemal]

According to Websters:

Eccentric: Odd, unorthodox.
Weird: Queer, Bizarre
Bizarre: Odd, Eccentric
Odd: Peculiar, Queer, Eccentric

ETC, ETC.

ALl those words are literally, according to the dictionary, the same.

SO you just admitted you were weird, odd, bizarre, queer, and peculiar by calling yourself eccentric.
neener neener nya nya na booboo

 

[Shalimar]

Yes dear, but eccentric sounds better, and in some cases perception is the only thing that matters.

 

[KitanaVorr]

Eccentric: Odd, unorthodox.
Weird: Queer, Bizarre
Bizarre: Odd, Eccentric
Odd: Peculiar, Queer, Eccentric

I freely admit all those things about myself and stand up in martyrdom (or perhaps not cuz martyrs die don't they) for the cause of all those who are bizzare, odd, eccentric and quite WEIRD...but not scary weird, only cute weird.

LOL although I wouldn't mind playing good(or bad) old Raistlin

 

[Jarval]

Hi, my Name is Jarval, and I DONT HAVE A PROBLEM!

Ahem, sorry about that...

I've been playing PbP here on EN World since the start of the Psionicle game, just over a year ago. I'm now in just over a dozen games, including Jemal's Enter the Hellmouth and Star Wars games (there's a link to a full list of my games in my sig). I am already in one Dragonlance game, Deedlit's (rather less than sane) Kender game...

I'm also running the Of Sound Mind game, based on Piratecat's adventure of the same name. My Mecha Crusade game is on pause at the moment, with me and Creamsteak in discussion about it's future direction.

I've got two RPG campaigns going IRL, and I play in another two (although all of these are somewhat intermittent).

IRL, I'm a student, studying science and computing. I'm a big fan of fantasy fiction, my favourite authors are Robin Hobb and Terry Pratchett. Other interests include: Watching TV (Buffy, Angel, Stargate, Dawson's Creek ), board games, movies, urban music, and so on...

Hmm, starting to sound a like a lonely hearts add

 

[Shalimar]

Gru, how would you stat up everyones equipment at the Start, exactly what was in the book, or purchase stuff? I mean, they lost everything but their weapons and armor at the very start, and they didn't have much more as it was. They didn't have money either, it was an issue quite often.

Sturm:
-Bastard Sword (Magic? It is the one that wont break unless he does at the very least a masterwork blade)
-Short sword
-Daggers 1 or 2
-A masterwork Breastplate (This is his solamnic armor worked with the symbols of the knighthood)
-A waterskin or two

Caramon:
-Whatever weapons he wants (a long sword, short sword, minimum 4 daggers)
-Chainshirt
-Shield
-Raist's equipment
-Raist's drink herbs
-4 water skins

Raistlen:
-Spell book
-Staff of Magius
-Spell component pouches
-Dagger in a sleeve spring

Goldmoon
-Blue Crystal Staff
-Did she have a music instrumant or just sang with no accompaniment?

Riverwind
-Only clothes, he even had to borrow weapons from Tanis

Tanis:
-Hunting Leathers
-2 daggers, Elven Longbow and Quiver of Arrows( Does he still have the magic arrowheads?), Longsword
-Laurana's ring

Tas:
-Who the heck knows?
at the very least:
-rabbit slayer (I think it was strongly implied it was magic, he did use it to injure the father of the gods)
-2 or 3 daggers
-Hoopak
-pouches of random goodies(borrowed naturally)

Flint:
-Master Crafted War Axe
-unknown armor
-Toys
-dagger
-Helmet( is the Griffon Mained helmet master craft? I know it wasn't really griffon hair... but flint didn't)

 

[rangerjohn]

Hi, I'm rangerjohn I am currently playing Valangil in the Lotr game here and Pharos the cursed human minotaur in pbem. As well as Lance the ranger/rouge in table top when I can; average 1/3 months. I have been roleplaying for about 20 years now, do you really want to know all they systems I've played? As for Garyh he's in about every game here including the Lotr game with Valangil. Jamal you have your work cut out for you. As for post frequency I can post at least once a day in the early evening.

On the subject of equipment are we playing the books or the modules? Riverwind and Goldmoon had equipment in the modules, admittedly leather armor and thier primary weapon, but I believe they were magical.

Equipment as per DL 5

Ah whats DL 5? is that the module number?

Besides I thought magic weapons were very rare in DL.

 

[Keia]

Magic was rare in the books, but I believe the modules had a decent amount of equipment. Nothing earth-shattering but smoe good gear. I'd check out the modules, but I don't want to look at them in cause we start this up sometime soon.

1. Yes, it's in fact the module number.
DL 1-4 = Dragons of Autumn Twilight Adventures
DL 5 gives extended background info on both the setting and the characters.

2. This might be (I think I still recall some from the "Tales" Series), however one could always use the Rokugan approach, i.e. they are not exactly magical, only very well made.
