[Thieves' World] Murder at the Vulgar Unicorn (full)

[Toric_Arthendain]

Dracomeander, I certainly do have room for you. Go ahead and come up with a character and post it here when you get it completed.

MummyKitty, I'll look over your character more closely shortly. Initial scan looks good though.

Bobitron, no problem. A couple of the characters are taking longer than normal because of the slow process of working out a character via e-mail. No biggie.

I hope to start the game within the next week or so, provided everyone here has characters done by then.

Toric_Arthendain. Please re send the email to me.

I errased it by error.

Recruiting is now closed. Current player list is as follows:
Bobitron - female Caronnese Assassin
bkmanis - male Wrigglie Survivor
MummyKitty - male Rankan Godsworn
Drowned Hero - ???
Dracomeander - ???
Maddmic - ???

I'm currently working with Drowned Hero behind the scenes to get his character done.

Also, I believe Maddmic is going to throw his hat into the ring and take the sixth spot.

Dracomeander, are you still planning to play?

MummyKitty, your character looks good. One minor change though. Cure Light Wounds is called Convert Light Wounds in Thieves' World. Basically there is no Cure Light Wounds. Convert Light Wounds converts 1d8+1 points of lethal damage to non-lethal at first level, meaning that damage heals faster because of conversion from lethal to non-lethal. Go ahead and make that change on the character sheet and you should be good to go.

Everyone - I plan to start this game by around Thursday or Friday of this week so I hope to have all the characters completed by then. Maddmic should have his done on Wednesday. Bob, I assume you are still working on yours?

I've created a thread in the Rogues Gallery. Please copy your completed characters here.

Looking forward to getting this going!

All good, Toric! I am still working on her, I'll have her ready for your red pen on Wednesday or Thursday.

I'm definitely planning to play. Just being delayed as I am also creating characters for a couple of games I'm running at the local convention this weekend.

I've got the beginnings of a Wrigglie Initiate on my notepad, but I've got a couple of questions.

The last book of the anthologies I read was Aftermath. How far after that is the time line set?

Also, all the spellcasting or ritual casting classes mention receiving bonus spells due to high casting attributes, but I can't find any other reference to determine how they are supposed to be handled. Are they bonus Known or Familiar? They can't be bonus castings as that is determined by how often the character wants to pay the price for casting.

Dracomeander, I believe that the timeline has advanced about 50 years since the first series of books. Drowned Hero is also working on an Initiate with me via e-mail (he doesn't have the book). I am not opposed to having two Initiates but thought I would let you know just in case. As for bonus spells based on high ability scores, my take is that they would add additional known spells. So a bonus of 1 additional first level spell would be a bonus known 1st level spell.

Updated my characte above in post #14. I'm not sure if that background works for you, Toric, let me know. Also, I'm stuck on this 100 sh for an hierloom item. There is nothing I really need. Can I spend it on some poison or jewelry?

 

[Toric_Arthendain]

Sure Bob, spend it on anything you like. Poison or jewelry sounds fine. Initial scan of your character looks good and your background works fine. Feel free to post the character to the Rogues Gallery thread and if there are any problems I'll let you know after a more thorough scan.

Alas, due to my current commitments, I think I'm going to have to turn down this game. Sorry all.

Posted my character in the Rogues' Gallery.
