My aim is to get roleplayers who would otherwise make mechanically weak characters and give them the opportunity to flesh out the personality and roleplay the character through the story.As far as it being a railroad, it's an online game so flexibility is at a premium anyway, but it'd be tailor-made from session to session, it's just that the goals presented would be predetermined.As far as choosing race, like I said, there would be about four choices of character per role. The list currently includes (these are only 1st-level versions and there would still be more to come for each role):DefendersKraegan Hammerfist (Dwarf Knight Heir of Delzoun)Iskaar (Dragonborn Cavalier Devil’s Pawn)Malindrian Callisal (Eladrin Knight Illiyanbruen Guardian)ControllersThaedan (Elf Hunter Seeker of Illefarn)Belesara (Tiefling Pyromancer Renegade Red Wizard)Nika (Shadar-kai Bladesinger Scion of Shadow)LeadersUlaea (Human Sentinel Pack Outcast)Aelar Sunbringer (Half-elf Warpriest Harper Agent)StrikersVorgrym (Drow Executioner Bregan D’aerthe Spy)Roberta Westley “Red” (Human Thief Daughter of Never)Anders (Halfling Fey Pact Hexblade Spellscarred Harbinger)The irony here is that what I'm after is people who don't care about the mechanics and can roleplay any character and yet the feedback I'm getting (not just from this thread) is so far that people wouldn't do it because mechanical decisions affect roleplaying choices.</blockquote>
