[QUOTE="Inconsequenti-AL, post: 3186901, member: 6584"] I'm really interested in this one... never played a play by post game before and browsed in here after seeing this thread title on the main page. Anyhow - this idea fascinates me. Been trying to badger some of my players into a game like this since forever. Without much success... Love to submit a character if my general inexperience with this format doesn't put you off! As a rough concept, I was considering an Elocator. Figure it's has an unhealthy obesession with the physical body, instead of the more normal fixation on brains. It even studies the food container - the bit most normal flayers throw away. :) Gone as far as honeing itself into peak physical condition. From a mechanical POV - While intending to use a melee weapon, I figure the hit and run style of the Elocator meshes well with the Mindflayers general dislike of putting themselves in physical danger! If your happy with this idea, then I have a couple of questions: Where exactly do you get the rules for putting together Mindflayer PCs? Have the XPH and SRD materials, but they differ a little. Are all Mindflayers Telepaths, or do some specialise in other disciplines? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
