Logos's The Destroyers **Recruiting**

Logos7

First Post
Hey Everyone,

I'm looking for a group to start a 4th edition play by post.

The game will be following my more than a little zany adventure path idea about being the harbringer's of the apocolypse and T.S.Eliot

so what am i looking for. Enthusiasm and Consistancy

I would appreciate a once/weekday post ability AND

if i have lots of applicant's the spots will probably be awarded by who plays in the least number of other play by posts (not to get nasty but my last 3 play by posts have more or less been ruined by people going sure i can play and then a month later, saying "opps sorry I pbp too much buhby"

The game itself should appeal to a large variety of styles (I enjoy combat and light story telling) immersionist probably wont be happy here however.

to start 9th level characters and keep it to the phb please. The story is starting at the end of a already largely successful quest. Your final quest to defeat your nemisis who has brought much woe and bastardtry upon you, the manical manlich, is almost over. as you approach his inner sanctom...

stats: 16,14,13,12,11,10

The adventure should run over the paragon levels and end up in epic...briefly, and will likely level up quite quickly (this more playtesty than hum dum adventure)

So yeah I'. looking for 4-6 good souls to help defeat manlich, and the nefarious affairs that come after.

Look forward to hearing from you Soon!

Im interested.

Any more info on the already history of the characters? Who and what is Manlich? how did we get there, why? that sort of thing to make some background for the character.

I want to try out a Dragonborn Paladin or warlord, maybe something else if Manlich is immune to paladins or warlords ;)

I was thinking something along the lines of , a ragtag band of varied origin came together under the so called rule of the manical manlich. Manlich, who is as a man and a lich, for some unknown reason has come out of hiding in the northern countryside, and started oppressing various villages, towns and laying siege to the local capital with his army of the undead. You, the heroes have risen up with or without the local's approval to take the fight back to manlich and have succeed greatly, freeing towns and saving many lifes. You press now upon the center of manlich's opperations a cavernous dungeon and tower complex in the northern swamps.

Background information

Very Points of Light Ish,

Largish Nearby City (the one that manlich was seiging at one point) is Greysky, a unsavory in the best of times city. More than a few were willing to let the city fall out of either personal interest, holy vendeta, or just plan apathy. The city is an important market and trading grounds however and its fall would have been felt across the land, even if no one wants to admit it. Yeah i stole it, but i stole it awhile ago its mine now....

Generally keeping to the concepts found in the phb and western fantasy ( expect giants and ogremages and dragons not oni, and jinn and man eating lions)

You have fought with manlich for the better part of a year, you know his power is large but in the big scheme of things he's a small fish. He has been alive since before you were born however, you do not know the reason

You know the standard lich stuff (loves the udead, phylcatry, arcane lore, bad ass, etc, etc)

You have also tussled with manlich a bit, you know he's more than a match for any of you one on one, your hoping to go in and lay a pounding down, without being interupted by minions, how you do that is up to you. (manlich is a bit of a meet and greeter and test out your character/give a chance to fiddle with your character)

anyway I hope that's what you where looking for.

I'd love to play a Eladrin Rogue. I admit this is only my 2nd 4e game, so I'm rather new. I love th concept though and am in 2 games (one of which may be dead). I will post a character if you don't mind.
 

by all means, start posting characters,

just remember phb and with the stats in the op

level 9 , well get to magic items in a bit

Djiminik Holmes, Human Fighter.

Djiminik's small village was terrorized by the undead servants of the Manlich one too many times. Eventually, Djiminik, the son of the village's Sherrif was fed up with the attacks and the disappearances, and he decided to get his buddies together and put an end to the Manlich. That did not go so very well. Djiminik was the only one to survive, and he only survived because, as he lay dying, he made a dark pact with some infernal force from beyond that had problems with the Manlich as well...and wanted a claim on Djiminik's soul.

Djiminik has discovered that he is not the only one in the region to have an issue with the Manlich and has come into Greysky to gather together others with similar vendetta's on their minds.
