[Recruiting] Harry Potter-style d20 Modern

I see your point, I geuss I'll just stick with human and take Divine Heritage or Wild talent to show her fey side. At least it would be an explination of the feat, getting magic from both branches of the family as it were.

We're good then? Excellent.

I plan to get some write-ups of the school's houses done this weekend, so if there's anything y'all would really like to see, now is the time to speak up.

So far I plan to have four (possibly five) houses, with the same house point/House Cup disciplinary system as you find in the books. ('Cause it works really well.)

Each house will have a name, colors, a beast that symbolizes the house, a virtue, and a flaw. The virtue and flaw won't be anything game mechanic related, they'll just help show the best and worst the house is capable of. (e.g. Gryffindor's virtue would be courage, and its flaw could be pride.)

Did you come up with any little magical nick nack purchase DCs or a broom purchase dc? Is there any equipment we will be required to have? ie, a potions kit(chemical kit) which is DC16, etc.

Still working on purchase price DCs. They'll probably be expensive, so I'm looking at ways to drive the prices down.

I will assume that you already have any required equipment.

The purchase DC's in Urban Arcana and the main rule book assume that magic has just recently re-entered the world and that there is no one actively producing these items, so with these things not being true the purchase DCs would be a lot lower. Rings for example might only have a purchase DC of 10+ Caster level in the wizarding world, but have the regular 25+ Caster level in the muggle world, Stuff like that.

I'd be interested in dropping in an Oliver Wood type as recurring NPC (5th year -- probably something like Fast 3/Smart 1/Mage 1). He couldn't show up right away, though (assuming gameplay's starting soon, as I'll be on vacation next week).

Noted. Let us know when you're back.

How is everyone's characters coming along? Need any help?

Sorry guys, I'll have to bail out. As cool as this campaign does sound, I'm all out of motivation to join yet another PbP game. I might create a minor NPC or such like. I hope you have a great game!
