[QUOTE="doghead, post: 1854819, member: 8243"] I thought about something along similar lines myself, although I had all the players contribute to generating the characters, then get allocated one at random. Actually, come to think of it, I have also wondered about having a game like you mentioned where anyone could post for the characters. I wonder if you would you need restrictions on switching between characters? Or would it be ok if someone posted half the party in a posting blitz. Perhaps "one post, one character" would be an idea to keep things more understandable. I would go with fairly straight forward characters, perhaps lower level ones as well, in order to allow people to get a handle on them quickly. Perhaps limit them to a single class. As for the setting, the more immediately recognisable it is, the more easily players can understand it. But then again .... perhaps it doesn't matter. I like the sound of the Nyambe campaign - a world where elephants and lions are not exotic monsters. Would it work? I really have no idea. thotd. [/QUOTE]
