Greetings,
I have decided to start the game this Sunday with the 5 players which we currently have. The introductory adventure will be in the Amazon Jungle, while the campaign will mostly take place in the backwoods of Dunwich. In light of this, characters which are suited for travel and exploration will probably fair the best. Someone should also have the following skills: Speak other Language: German; Knowledge: Archaelogy, Streetwise, History; Craft: Illustration; and Research.
For those who like to pack firearms, you must be warned that if a firearm is used in a public place, within the confines of a city, the police will surely come. And in most cases they will arrive before you are able to leave the area. If you are either caught with the weapon, or identified as the shooter you will go to the pokey.
As for character creation you will generate your 6 ability scores by rolling four six sided dice, you will be able to reroll any die with a result of one. Then you will choose the three highest die and use them as your ability score. For example you roll a 1, 3, 6, and 6. You then reroll the 1 and get a 5. So now you have a 5, 3, 6, and 6. You then take the highest highest three which would be the 5, 6, and 6. Giving an ability scor of 17. Hopefully this will assist in generating character with more longevity since we are starting at level 1.
I would like to hear from all players who are still interested, please post in this thread. Then you can post your characters. I will start entering background information in the Gaming thread between Friday and Sunday. Feel free to begin posting as soon as we have all characters posted here and the gaming thread has commenced.
