Greyhawk Game Starting


log in or register to remove this ad

Karl, it seems like you have a prerty good idea on a campaign you would like to GM. If you're up to it, I'll relinquish this thread to you.

A have a ranger PC I'm playing in a different campaign, with a 32 point buy. I'll have to modify him a little for 6th level and flesh him with a Greyhawk background.

Everything you've sounds good.
Let us know if you want to take over.

PS: If yes, we should start sending PCs.

Assuming Karl is taking it, will you be starting a Rogue's Gallery thread for this game or should we post here? I should be able to put something together tonight.

A thought.

Post here for approval then post in RG for final version....makes it nice and clean for everyone. Still waiting on my questions though...
 


OK as no word for Andrew, and as the natives are reless ;) I will move forward with this.

I will open a thread in Rogue's Gallery. Please post your basic character ideas here. And then final versions over there.

Title of the Game - Greyhawk; Return of the Slavelord
Six Players
level 6
32 point buy Attributes
Hit Points Max at first level, then based on HD; D4 =3, D6=4, D8=6, D10=8, D12 =10
Starting Wealth - 13,00gp
If you can craft/create/brew/scribe, you can take the discount of 40% off the item you can make (just a little bit of a balance as it will NOT be costing you any XP, so it will cost 60% whatever is listed in the DMG)
Standard Races from the Player's Handbook (I am not opposed to the Aasmir(sp?) or the Tiefling. If you wish to try one of those ok with me, just so long as you are 'good'. I am a bit more iffy about the Plane-Touched as they seem a little more FR based but I am not 100% against them either)
Standard Classes from the Player's Handbook, Complete Warrior and Complete Divine (although I am very iffy about the Samurai/Shugenju). PrC from the DMG, CW and CD
Character background give me the basics at least about your personality, history etc. If you want to know each other, that is cool. If not that is fine also, just put it in your background
Starting out in or around Greyhawk, although characters can come from anywhere in the known world, just include reason why you are here.
Would prefer "Good" character only... or at least have it in your background why you might help those who could give you much if any 'worldly' rewards (money, magic, etc)
Posting at least every other day (every day if you can, let me know if you are going to be away and want me to NPC you. IF I am away I will let you know)

Some basic notes about the game and how I will run it...

When we get into rolling dice, etc I will let you make the rolls and then post them online with what your character is doing.

Put the results and any other OOC information that you need to tell me at the end of your post in bracket like this:
OOC: Diplomacy check, rolled a 12 +10 skill =22, to try to calm him down[/OCC]

or in combat like this...
[OCC]Attack roll 5 +10 melee =15, if I hit he takes 1d8 +4 damage for 3+4 =7 damage[/OCC]

If you want to use different colors for this (I will be using RED) you can but please make it something I can read :)

Also, please put your race, class, character name, and whatnot in the title of your posts so everyone doesn't have to keep running to the Rogue's Gallery to figure out who everyone is.

Thoughts go in italics, speaking in "quotes," and actions go in *asterisks.* If you wish to use different colors for thoughts and speech, you may, but again make it light enough for me to read.

Occasionally I'll be making use of the spoiler tags. If you see a blank spot in a paragraph or something, like this
this is an example of spoiler text
, please don't highlight it until you read the end of the post and get my recommendations as to who is supposed to read it.

It's up to the DM I suppose. If we start at 6th level, the ECL levels will be come into effect though.

Leadership Feat is fine with me... if you take it, I will let you make up the characters, but I think I want to have a base of 28 Stat Buy for them.

Looks good wysiwyg, just two quick questions as I look him over...

I don't think Rangers can use Weapon Specialization? I am not up on all 3.5 changes, but...

The Composite Longbow (+3) only gives it bonus to damage, not to hit, I believe...

(WHAT a day for forgot my PHB at home and me at work).
