Dark Sun PbP Game [Full]

[KitanaVorr]

Well there are 10 people so far interested in being players, wow.

I don't really know super much about the Dark Sun world other than reading a couple of the books of which then I got so disgusted by one of the characters who repeated acted like a jerk and no other character seemed to care that I threw it across the room and swore off reading the rest of the series. And that's about all I know about Dark Sun.

If you really only want people who know what's going on I suppose I can leave, but I would like to play.

BTW I looked in the Fight Club forum and I'm really interested in playing there, but I haven't a clue as to how all that weirdness works. Can someone tell me?

I'm not too concerned with the time the game takes place.

My only real request is the inclusion of at least a little politics and intrigue.

PbP games aren't well suited for hack-n-slash games.

One of the advantages to this format is that it allows you to get more intimate with your own character and the other player's characters.

Dang. 10 players. If we had two DMs, we could run two different games.

Or one game with two opposing factions?

Now that would be cool.

I think right now, I just need to know what level we are playing and how to determine ability scores.

My vote for character level, for what it is worth, ranges from 5th-12th.

I think I am going with a human Savant.

I'm fine with what ever is decided, although i'm dissapointed the folks at Athas.org have something against Templars.


What character ticked you off, KitanaVorr?

I loved all the boooks, the prism pentad being the best, Agis of Asticles is probably one of my all time favorite characters from anything i've read.

Sorry, I have NO clue. I've chosen to master one forum, and this is it.

That idea is becoming increasingly popular.

Bear in mind its been a few years since I last read it. I can't remember her exact name...starts with an "S" I think...some thief/magic type chick. Oh goodness I hated her. I thought she would get better but for some reason she would betray/trick/and basically act like a jerk and the guys would just fall all over her like a bunch of idiots! Well okay I can understand that because sometimes hormones make people do stupid things...repeatedly in this case

And people were falling over trying to train her to use magic (not that she didn't use it to basically do badness) All those long speeches about bad wizards and how they ruined the land, how they couldn't stand them, how they would kill one if they saw one...AND FOR SOME REASON I can't fathom other than male idiocy they let her get away with it instead of killng her.

I liked the other characters, but when they started being so hypocritical on her account...I just threw the book across the room and said, screw the series I can't read it anymore.

Sounds like Sadira, not really my favorite either, but with characters like Agis, Tithian, Rikus, and Neeva running around she didn't bother me that much either.
