I'm thinking of starting a game.

Oh captain, my captain.

I thought this might be relevant.

I have rolled a seafaring bedouin on an arabian nights kind of campaign, slit many throats with my jambiya. Later in game ended up rolling a sea faring wizard, when the bedouin eventually drowned. There is so much fun to be had with fire on a ship.

That might be good if you guys get pwned by a kraken or something.

Any openings? I would like to join in if there are spots left.

Actually, it's all on account of the weather. But, hey, though we'll drown, there's no need to frown 'cause we are all going together.

Can we actually play goblins? Because I want to play a goblin. Maybe a cleric.

That could be tricky though. I'm probably going to disallow evil PCs at character creation. The last few times I allowed evil PCs, it caused trouble. Maybe things could be different here, but I haven't run PbP games before, and I'd like to minimize potential problems from the start. However, the goblin gods tend to be NE, which leaves them off-limit to PCs unless you want to be a cleric of Khurgorbaeyag.

I haven't started recruiting yet. Probably will set up a recruiting thread later with the house rules and basic campaign info.

It's always been my understanding that any race open to players are open to all considerations given to PC's, which includes alignment.

Clerics can be within one step of their deity's alignment, meaning that if he worships a NE God/dess, he can easily be True N in alignment... assuming he's gonna worship a humanoid deity. Worshipping a non-humanoid one would be quite a tale.

Of course, I say this because I would also want to play a Goblin.

Don't fret, the goblin cleric was nothing more than a loose idea. I'm also thinking of a wizard or druid, but I'll wait to decide on anything until you post character generation guidelines.

Oh yeah, I wasn't thinking about that. Maglubiyet would be accessable to TN then.

Just as long as I don't get an all-goblin crew.

Concept wise I am torn. The good ol' wizard or druid that helps the ship and crew... or the rogue-type that .... well is a pirate lol.

I think when the character creation information is put up I will finally decide. I have been waiting for years to play a seafaring game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How about the seafaring Barbarian/Viking From A Strange Land?
