Strahd's "The lost Caverns of Tsojcanth" - Game Ended successfully!

Oh? Interesting. I'd say that may draw the dreadful Eye of the Tolkein Estate, which may spell doom not just for the movie alone, but for all of Midnight...

.. but I may be wrong.

Yair, I recall the midnight book you have, you showed it to me.
run a campaign over here …. Or tabletop ???
I haven't seen you for ages, as well as the others …

 

[Thanee]

You were at Essen as well? I should have mentioned I was going...

Well, Essen is only ~40km from here (half an hour drive at most).

Bye

Yep. What I bought was "Fury of Shadow"; I haven't got an opportunity to go over it yet.

You know, I think I will. I'll contact you by the Storyguide group.
Not of Midnight and not PbP, though. If I'll run a PbP again, it will probably be of a non-D&D game like perhaps a game of Nobilis or something along those lines.

 

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

OK, I will try to recruit another character because it seems that Devrimk faded into the nothingness.

 

[Thanee]

Yeah, seems so. :\

Bye

Hey, Strahd, I'd be keen to pick up the slot if it's still available. Would you want another arcane spellcaster? I haven't played a sorceror before but that'd be cool. In my mind's eye I see someone short, nuggetty and with a penchant for flame. I have to go to work now but I'll think about a character during the day (hours of driving) and get back to you ASAP.

OK, Strahd, I'm back and I've got some ideas.

But first, some questions:

• What's the character creation process - roll on IC or point buy? (If so, how many?)
• What about HP?
• Starting gold?
• Books available for use?
• Any house rules?
• If I take any item creation feats, will there be a pool of XP to make things, or would they be assumed as part of the getting to 6th level?
• It is 6th level, right?

Thats all for now - I'm off again, so I'll check back here later!

Hi 'Nock
Glad you answered my call, let it be known that this game is "Heavy" and long and right now are most enjoyable for me and I guess for the players as well.
I assume you know several of the players over here, now you'll meet them as a character also.
Thanee plays a Wizard so no spell caster is needed unless you want some, you can build whatever character you want except for psionic.

I'm throwing you into the game immediately, you traveled as a passenger with Kettish merchants and the caravan were ambushed by fearsome ogres, right now you lie hidden behind a bush severely wounded (5hp), you saw a group of adventurers killing the ogres and right now one of them (Maor) starts to bury the merchants bodies in shallow graves.
There is also an old dwarf that handles the horses on the road quite badly it seems, you can crawl or limp toward them with a cry for help. Now that the caravan is lost you can join the group but you need to earn their trust.

No psionics - I don't have those books

Just FYI, all the rules for psionics are available online for free, for example here, middle of middle column.
I really like the 3.5 psionics. Not the Complete Psionic book, though, I didn't like that.
