there was a call for a druid or an undertaker. That sounded a bit ominous-until the necromancer was mentioned by someone-Leif- a moment ago. that kind of got my attention.
Sorry, DeWar, the "call" for a druid or necromancer was an attempt at humor. If you really want to join the game you're certainly welcome, but disregard what I said about druids and necromancers. Make a character that you want to play. But the 'investigative' angle is accurate. You found the char gen guidelines, so that and Scotley's update should put you on the right track.
We've always had a stealth-weak party. Rogue is an excellent choice.
Current players to the best of my recollection, who have posted so far this year:
Mowgli (Urgant Barbaian/Fighter)
Helfdan (Knight)
Lou (Monk)
Kerlan Rayne (Wizard)
Rhun (Cleric)
Keep in mind that the party members are all essentially detectives who sometimes find themselves facing unusual criminals and other hazards. Maybe that helps give you some direction. As Leif said we are somewhat lacking in the skill monkey department.
