[QUOTE="Trench, post: 4106505, member: 40464"] [i]This here is the first installment of our PbP game set in Ptolus, that's been going pretty steadily since 2007. I was inspired by a post here long ago on ENWorld about a police procedural campaign and loved the idea so much I decided to put it into action. For those familiar with the Ptolus setting, the city is divided into many districts, most of which have a watchtower, of which there are nine total. The "Tenth" is essentially about the special ops Watch. These first few introductory paragraphs are the first glimpse at our characters. I'll be detailing them more in-depth as they come up. I started them off split up ,partly because I hate the cliche of "heroes meet in a bar" and I also wanted the players to get a sense of the different parts of the city. Ptolus is a rich setting and find myself having to edit simply because there's too much cool stuff. And as players will do, they tend to go off the map more frequently than is planned. Also, if anyone wants to put the comments in a separate thread, let me know and I'll create one.[/i] [/QUOTE]
