Let's aim for a kick-off of December 28. I'll be traveling for work and the holidays before then...I hope a delayed start will make things run more smoothly at the beginning.

It was pointed out to me that players can game the character generation system by rerolling as often as they like until they get a stat set they want...then they click the "aye" button. My character generation rules obviously didn't take this into account, so from this point forward I'm going to insist that ability scores be generated using 6 [4d6c1] rolls linked to the dice roller. Abilities will be granted in the following order: STR, INT, WIS, DEX, CON, CHR.

I'll update the house rules, but this one's important enough that I wanted it to show up as a new post. I won't make everyone reroll their characters, but if you did multiple re-rolls, I'd appreciate it if you did. Obviously multiple re-rolling is against the spirit of the rules, and it's not fair to those who took their first roll.

Thanks
Shannon

Expect a post from me tonight in your private forums. If everyone's ready to go before the 28th, you'll know. Otherwise we can play out the prelude until then.

Enough players are engaged now that we can move to a public forum. Please feel free to continue to give character actions in the private forums if you so wish...especially those that you wish to conceal from others!

Thank you! It's a lot of fun so far. Some character development, some puzzles, some good fights.

The only thing I'm not enjoying is how Eduard is being treated by the almighty RNG... :D

Now you've done it...2000 posts! That's 500 in just nine days, which is ridiculous. 200xp for those that posted.

A hint I will offer: if PCs don't have enough money to pay for level training when they get to town (but do have enough xp), they can explore options to paying in gold. They may not always like the option, though.

Chat with me in the private forum; your character will know where to go for training.

:lol: There goes my plan to incorporate quarter-orcs into the game.

Which, come to think of it, why aren't there any?
