To help all of the new players, this post gives you the basic information needed to play in Enworld, without reading through the 8 pages of the <a href="http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=60862&perpage=40&pagenumber=1" target="_blank">General Enworld Thread</a>Q: What is Enworld?A: Enworld is a turly living campaign. Players will be able to create magic items, travel around the world, design new feats, research new spells, build their own shops, houses, and maybe even cities. DMs will get to create their own adventures, and run them. Q: How is this different from a RPGA Living Campaign?A: An RPGA Living campaign does not allow players to create items easily, players have a very hard time creating their own spells, and players cannot create feats. In a RPGA campaign, all of the groups play the same adventures, while in Living Enworld every adventure is unique. RPGA living campaign rarely allow the world to change as a result of one group of Players' actions, while the idea of having repercussions for every groups actions is central to living Enworld.Q: How do I become a player?A: Just post a character in the <a href="http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=60933" target="_blank">Living Enworld characters thread</a> of the Rogues Gallery forum, report to the <a href="http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=61028" target="_blank">Red dragon inn</a> in the Playing the Game Forum, and begin looking for adventuers and interacting with other players.Q: What are the rules for character creation?A: Player characters are created using a 30 point buy method, and only the races and classes presented in the 3.5 rulebooks. Even if you do not have the 3.5 rulebooks, the basic information is available for free, so everybody can play. At this point no other material is allowed, but as time passes other books will be added to the list available for use by player characters.Starting gold is the maximum for each class.Feel free to create new places and people as part of your backstory, players are encouraged to help build the world by adding details in their backstory.Q: How do I become a DM?A: Anybody who would like to run an adventure can run one. The first thing you need to do is submit as much information as possible on your adventure to one of the judges. Once the judge has given his approval, and as soon as you are ready to begin the adventure, you need to post your adventure to the Red dragon Inn, so that players can join. You can post the notice of a "job available" yourself as an NPC or your character, or you can ask a Judge to do it for you. Either way, as soon as a group of interested adventurers has gatherd, you create a new thread for your adventure and begin.Q: If I DM can I still have a character?A: Yes, anybody can have a character. the only restriction is that your character cannot participate in an adventure you run as anything other than an NPC.Q: What is Enworld like?A: To find out about notable places, people, and items within Enworld, visit the <a href="http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=61171" target="_blank">Almanac</a> , a collection of all of the information we have so far created about Enworld.
