The final party has been posted.Iliana, Headmaster Goludov’s assistant, approaches you in the halls of Ven ir’Kesslan Academy. She hands you a sealed letter, and informs you that it should be read immediately. Before you can ask questions, she is gone.When you read the letter, it simply says that your presence is requested in the Headmaster’s office during the lunch break, and that you are not to share this message with the other students.You understand what this means. You have been selected for a special mission as an emissary for the school.Ven ir’Kesslan Academy was founded twenty-nine years ago, in the wake of the vicious assault by the Cold Sun lizardfolk. The Academy started as a boarding house and training center for children orphaned in the attacks, but has since become a joined military academy and orphanage.The academy’s mission statement is simple: to provide training in valuable skills to ensure the future of Q’Barra.The orphanage is run by the Church of the Sovereign Host, and accepts both orphans and children who are given over to its care for whatever reason. Children who are given up must be given up before they reach puberty, whatever puberty may be for their race. Warforged who find their way to the Academy are accepted for training if they didn’t see combat. If they are seasoned soldiers, they are welcomed as teachers and guardians for the children.The academy provides all manner of training for its students, leading many to seek a life in Q’Barra’s official military once their training is complete. Officially, the Academy is a completely autonomous entity, separate from the government. It has its own rules and governs itself.Q’Barra: Facing Truth is a campaign for 6 4th level characters. The characters are students at the Academy, and as such should be barely adults, by whatever standard their race uses. For example, a human character should be between 17 and 19, a half-elf should be between 21 and 23.The Character Creation guidelines are a bit strict, and I recognize that. Please read all three posts carefully. However, this is not simply a "role-playing" or a "smash and grab" campaign. It is both. You must be willing to commit at least one post a day to this campaign. I realize that Real Life comes first, but in most circumstances you should be able to shoot me a quick message that you will be gone. If you disappear for more than a week without letting me know, your character is forfeit, and you will be replaced.In selecting characters for this campaign, I will be looking for the following in rough order of importance:Interesting character, background, and descriptionQuality of writingFilling useful niche within partyFamiliarity with Eberron setting (as reflected in background)I plan to keep submissions open until Friday, 2/09/07. It may run longer, if I don't feel all party slots have been filled. I’ll post a notice 24-hours before closing submissions. Note that no characters will be selected until after submissions are closed, so there’s no point in posting “save a spot for my shifter ranger 2/fighter1/cleric1” or whatever. I will select from completed characters only. Of course, if you wish to inquire if a particular concept is a viable candidate before working up the complete character, please feel free to do so. Once all members of the party have been chosen, we’ll work on integrating their backgrounds here before the in-character thread starts. All characters must know each other, whether they have a positive relationship or negative relationship. This will be your first exercise in teamwork.
