Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bulsarra" data-source="post: 447022" data-attributes="member: 5224">Getting Ready to Get Started Part 1All Ya'll:Here's a couple of quick hits:1. Review page 144 of the PHB. There's a side bar that lists some ways that players can help the campaign. What I'd like you all as a group to consider is mapping.Historically I have dispised mapping. Nothing slows down an adventure than explaining and/or correcting room diminsions. So I propose a couple of ideas.First: someone volunteers to map old skool. We do it by the book. If someone wants to, we will. (Obviously I think this is a bad idea but I don't want to deny anyone anything they really want to do in this game. Logistically we'll have to work something out so I can see what you're mapping but I'll worry about that only if I have to.)Second: (and this is my preference) Someone volunteers to make a rough map as we go along that I'll review it periodically. There may be certain moments (you'll never know when) when having a map, particularly a really good or really bad one (relative to what I expect) could greatly affect the adventure.Third: No mapping required. It will be assumed that someone's doing it and doing it passably well. It will rarely, if ever, be an issue.2. Getting Started: I'll email the Background and General Info Sheet (as well as post it on the site and board) in the next day or two. If Jay, DougB and DougP are still the only ones ready by the time that info is processed then we'll get going and work Clayton and Vann in later. (You may be negatively effected by this but probably not for a short while.) You may, as individuals, get emails from me manuevering your character into a certain time and place, so if you have a background story, now is the time to post/email it for me to read.Without going into too much detail right now just keep in mind that you are, or soon will be, a recruit in the elite Vigil unit of the Eisleis City Watch. (Jay, your character excluded as we discussed.)</blockquote>
