From Ravenloft I would like to use their PHB and DMG, Denizens of the Dark, Heroes of the Light, Champions of Darkness, and Van Richten’s Arsenal. The last three books are mainly in for some added equipment and prestige classes, Denizens is a monster gallery, and the new Ravenloft PHB and DMG rules can mostly be paraphrased by me so don’t worry if you can’t get your hands on any of these books. - Some races have changed, Half-Orcs are now “Caliban”, and a few more have been added (Half-Vistani). I will also allow one character to make a Dhampir (half-vampire) character if they want with some altered rules…basically you will have to level 3 times before you get out of your “monster levels” (like in the book Savage Species) and can start picking up character levels.  - Any prestige classes are a go as long as you meet the pre-reqs and such.  - 32 point buy.  1st level maxed hps, rest of levels are 75% of hps rounded up. - Starting cash will either be less than what the DMG recommends, or magic item buys will be limited because Ravenloft in general has less magic in it.    I’m planning to make the party a group of detectives or law enforcement that spends their time investigating crimes and such. They will all know each other initially because I don’t want to take the time to roleplay through meeting each other. I also want to point out that even though the characters are involved with the law it doesn’t mean that cannot perform evil acts sometimes. Dark Powers, Madness, Fear, and Horror checks can all be the results of acts of evil and can easily keep a diabolical PC in line…so tread carefully on that.    If you are interested please post in this thread with an idea of how often you can post (once a day is nice), any questions, and character ideas.    <a href="https://www.enworld.org/index.php?threads/92503/" target="_blank">Rogue's Gallery Thread</a>    <a href="https://www.enworld.org/index.php?threads/93022/" target="_blank">IC Thread</a>Edit: We've recently lost 2 players and a third one hasn't posted in a long time...so I'm fishing for any interested parties.  Just post a message in this thread and we'll see if we can fit you in.</blockquote>
