Power of the Forge campaign [Game Closed]

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

Hi, I'm going to run a new campaign, my first one that is not table top.
It will be based on D&D 3.5 edition.

The huge underground land of Gorgamdur that lies in Stonefog Mts. is divided to three dwarven clans . The king Borgal Greybeard died 10 years ago and left the land to his 2 sons and 1 daughter.
Prince Gorash greybeard of Korkadur clan, Prince Rorash Greybeard of Berogar clan
and Princess Coldwerra greybeard of Zorkar clan.
Prince Gorash rulls the north Mt. range and the hills to the north, and west.
Princess Coldwerra rulls the Middle Mt. range and the sea cliffs to the east.
Prince Rorash rulls the South Mt. range, and the enterance to the underworld.

east of the Mt. is the sea and numerous human islands, West are human and gnomish lands, North lies savage Barbrian tribes and humanoids and in the south lies the massive Yaa'r forest with his unfriendly Elves and fey community.

The party will be a dwarven band, already know each other from their underground land of Gorgamdur, The party members work for the royal family of Gorash and will recieve tasks from Prince Gorash greybeard.

One last thing- don't trouble your mind with my numerous grammer faults

 

[Timothy]

Ah a 3rd edition game, I like that and this one will give me a chance to get over my distrust of dwarves, maybe even play a character that has a code of honour. maybe even a character that actually follows the letter of the law.

Could it be...

No, I couldn't

or could I??

With your permission I'd like to make a Dwarven Paladin. althoug I would like to write the code of honour for my particular order, so I know what I can and cannot do and we won't run into alignment issues.

 

[Captain Tagon]

Sounds interesting now that I have free time and real life has less drama so I can actually focus on playing a game. Probably a Dwarven Cleric.

I ment 3.5 edition, not 3
About the Paladin, sure thing !!
Search the web for a dwarven pantheon, I'm sure you'll find a war/battle deity to suit your player.
about the code, it could be a strict and tough one like - Honor the metal, grew massive beards, don't trust the elves and etc...
Now for the Orders - The Knighthood of the dwarves divided to 3 like the family - all of the members are paladins and priests but they differ in the code.
the dwarvish knighthood under Prince Gorash (your character) is called the Order of the Axe. It's more war like code.
the dwarvish Knighthood under Prince Rorash is called the Order of the gem. it's more like merchant code
and the dwarvish knighthood under Princess Coldwera is the order of the stone.
it's more like law code.

One last thing is your connection to the royal family - you can be a guard, or you can invent whatever connection you want.

Read my last meassge to Timothy - your cleric can be a member of the order of the axe and be a war priest, or you can be just a simple cleric, working in the royal family stone chapel and worship any deity you want.

with mountain dwarf do you mean the PHB dwarf?

ranger, melee style will be fun... i dont have my books here atm so it might change.
proffession: metalsmithing

 

[jkason]

I'm thinking of a spy-type rogue. Maybe a trader who, if you're the right person and know how to ask, trades in secrets instead of goods? I'll stat it up later today.

Nope, check the Dmg, the dwarf's stats in the Phb is ment for hill dwarf.
You'll be a Mt. ranger, so adjust him to rocky/snowy/cliffy/hilly area and not like
the regular forest ranger, you can choose for favored enemies goblioids or other Mt. beasts
or underworld creatures.

Spy type rouge trader can be one that his goal is to spy in the human land in the east or the barbrian lands to the north. as a profession you can also skill in crafting traps and lock picking for the royal family as well.

Hi! This is my first post...

I'd like to try the pbp game so if its allowed i'd like to join you for roleplaying in your pbp setting.

i guess that a dwarf druid would be very interesting, so i think ill play one...
My druid will be focus on an elemental type probably the "earth" one, so it will be going on a way like geomancer or something like that...


- i play d&D for long time but i never tried the buy system ability generation, so if someone could explain it 2 me, i' would apreciate it!

- by the way... is there any rule against posting my msn email for a quicker contact?
