[QUOTE="Eidalac, post: 3897843, member: 56135"] Since my Red Hand of Doom game is going [i]so[/i] swimmingly *rollseyes*, I've been kicking around the idea of an unholy love child of E6 and the Black Company. I have a very rough idea for the start and the goal, but not much else ATM, so I'm just seeing if there is any interest in the idea. Also, I should note I'm not tied to the Black Company Setting in particular, so I'm fairly open to suggestions at this point in the process (including story wise). I'm slightly tempted to use a modified version of the Diamond Throne setting, but that's a thought I literally just had I as typed this up. More than likely, this will start out at 1st level. The starting town (Some names and place have been borrowed from other adventures I have, mostly due to having maps for them, so that doesn't mean I will be using those adventures (I might, but it all depends)): All characters will start as locals. One idea I have ATM is to have you start with just 1 NPC class level, which will be replaced by a PC class at the onset of events.

The exact details are not fixed, but that thread will give you a pretty good idea of what I'm gunning for. Talents are similar to what you find in Arcana Evolved, as a special 1st level only feat. However, I'm obviously tweaking that idea a bit, as you'll get more than 1 as you advance. More than likely, these will be tied to your Background/Profession.
