Nightfall's Scarred Lands Psionics Game Planning (was: Psionics Friendly DM Wanted!!)

[garyh]

Emailed Nightfall.

Cool, hopefully he'll DM.

Imagine: Nightfall DMing a SL PbP game for GnomeWorks, Sollir Furryfoot, creamsteak, reapersaurus, and garyh.

If that doesn't scream "ENWorld RULES!!!" I don't know what does.

Since it is a point of interest, have you noticed that 6 players is the standard for PbP. It's the constant in every game I can think of, off the top of my head. It may be incidental, but it also promotes shorter battles, which is very important around here. 4 Players is better for RP, however, as it prevents anyone from getting overshadowed. Then again not everyone cares for a certain conversation so...

rambling...

I couldn't tell you what my average players per game is, but I do agree with your RP / battlespeed observations.

 

[Creamsteak]

Alright, I'm off for bed. I might not be on tomorrow or Saturday, game nights. I certainly hope this thread goes well...

/me Rings the DM bell...

Not more then 4 players (You have 4 already?) and what kind of game you wanna run? Module? FRCS? Planes? Homebrew?

 

[The Forsaken One]

I always play psions so why not DM one game with them

Now I was thinking of it. We could play Gnome's Setting, in the same time, different time.. if he let me in on it

I don't think so, TFO... I'd have to start with writing everything down, and that in and of itself would take a month or two.

Besides, I don't think I'd trust anybody other than myself to run it. Nothing personal, but it would just seem... wrong, somehow.

We have 5 people thus far... right between "good for battles" and "good for RP". That's a good number.

The Psionicle has... 5 active members right now. If Sollir were still around, we'd have 6... so I guess your observation is probably right, cs.

Psionics? Somebody say psionics?

I'm always looking for another excuse to play a Savant. I'm in if there is room.

 

[Nightfall]

Hey, all we'd need is to mention SL to Nightfall, and we'd have a DM.

And yes I appear. It would prove an interesting challenge to me, running Psionic characters. I'd probably say "Make them all Psionic" in some way, so as no one would feel left out. I will admit, I've never Dmed any psionic characters, but if you guys can muddle through that, I'm sure I can work something out.


As for your guys concern, "How much Psionic info you need" I merely ask you look at R&R2 Psionic section. Or barring that just understand that the rules for Scarred Lands Psionics are "Psionics are different", for the main part.
