Try to be able to do the same).--Write with some semblance of grammar, punctuation, and legibility. --Be civil to others.--Accept the rulings of the DM as final word.  I will listen, but you must accept that I am ultimately fair.What to do if you are interested:--Make a simple reply post to this thread.  Something along the lines of “Hey, I’d like to join” works fine.--Do NOT post a detailed character concept.  Instead, simply state what type of character you would like to play (see Character section below first), like “Halfling Monk”.--Wait for me to reply to you.  I will reply when I have 4 characters, so depending on how lively interest is in this game; it may take more or less than a few days.  Please be patient.--When I have selected 4 players (and characters) I will make a reply post to this thread.  I will place on a waiting list anyone who was not selected, if you ask me on it.--Once players are selected, I will post more on character creation (though see below).  You may be asked at this point to consider tweaking or changing you concept to ‘balance’ the party.Characters (do not actually do any of this yet, until I give the go-ahead):Source Material:  Players Handbook, Dungeon Masters Guide, Monster Manuals I-III, Fiend Folio, Monsters of Faerun, The Complete Series, Races of Stone, Races of the Wild, Magic of Faerun, The Players Guide to Faerun, Faiths and Pantheons, Races of Faerun.  Other material subject to approval (includes other WotC material and Dragon magazine.  Do not bring up third party material). Races: Standard PHB or Forgotten Realms subraces.  No races with a LA.  No drow.Alignment: No evil characters.Classes: PHB classes.Ability Scores: 36 point buy OR 5d6 take highest 3 using the Grid Method at Invisible Castle (URL is <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/statgen.py?a=grid" target="_blank">http://invisiblecastle.com/statgen.py?a=grid</a>, for an explanation of the Grid Method, go to <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/help.py?p=grid_method" target="_blank">http://invisiblecastle.com/help.py?p=grid_method</a>)Skills: All characters have Knowledge (home region) 2 Ranks for free.Feats: Any from source material.  Sorcerers and Bards get Eschew Materials for free.Prestige Classes: Any from source material.  A prestige class must complete three levels before taking a new one.  Subject to DM approval.  PM me if you have plans for a prestige class.Money and Equipment: Maximum gold for a starting level one character.  Equipment from the PHB only to start.  Other equipment available after start.FR Regions:  Characters should be from The Dales, regardless of race.  Those who have this area for their region get one of the regional feats (their choice) as a free bonus feat.  Bonus equipment as per the FR regions rules in the Players Guide to Faerun.  I can give you the information if you do not own that book.Spells: Divine spellcasters must research anything not in the Players Handbook.  Anything not in the PHB is not common knowledge (it may not be rare, but it certainly is not standard for all spellcasters).  Players can access these spells through research, but not from getting spells simply for leveling up in a class, like the wizard.  Sorcerers are not so restricted.A Note:  The party should fill out the basic roles required in a party. I may stipulate additional guidelines, but I can’t think of anything to add right now. Characters should be motivated to protect the interests of their homeland/The Dales.About the DM:  I have many years of DND to my credit, as well as games like Feng Shui and Exalted.  I am looking for a PbP game since all of my regular FtF players have moved away or become to occupied with babies and jobs to play on a regular basis.</blockquote>
