I'm sorry, I would love to play with y'all but I'm finding that 1e character creation just exceeds my willingness to crunch numbers. Which is remarkably small for a guy who came up as a nuclear engineer, I know ...

I may be interested, if you still have openings. I will need to think on what I might play first though.

Yes there are openings.

What do you prefer to play?

I am still posting the background history and game setting so reading through those may inspire certain preferences.

Same, but I'm a software developer, so it's natural I want to automate things.

Yes. The game is open for recruitment. I find that often several folk express interest intially but enthusiasm wanes or real life demands mean gaps always appear.

I will add you to the group profile do you can ask questions and post in the forum.

I'd like to join this ill-fated trip. Your Pirate game was fun and engaging, I'm looking forward to seeing this play out.

The Barrowmaze mega-dungeon forum is up and we have our first bold and brave adventurers arriving in the village of the damned.

I will keep this recruitment thread open so welcome any others interested and recommend you to view the campaign, read the setting, house rules and lore on deities and magic. Then if you are interested post here or on me.

Any questions please ask.

The Barrowmaze mega-dungeon forum is up and we have our first bold and brave adventurers arriving in the village of the damned.

An eclectic group of 11 mostly poverty stricken adventurers are busy orientating themselves around the tables and mixed patrons of The Brazen Strumpet Tavern. Some are fishing for rumours, some have already tried nicking stuff, others have confessed sins, fed beggars and one is about to strip and wash the dead. And some might be the unlucky beggars about to journey off and be stripped and fed themselves to the undead.

It had been a great start but as the characters will fragment into several groups, there is going to be plenty of space for new players to join up late and get involved.

I will keep this recruitment thread open so welcome any others interested and recommend you to view the campaign, read the setting, house rules and lore on deities and magic. Then if you are interested post here or on me.

Any questions please ask.

Sure Redwarrior.

Character generation is easy but read through the campaign setting and a couple of house rule tweaks.

We have three groups presently adventuring in the wide world. This last week saw characters getting beat up in tavern brawls, nearly joining a ghoul for an afterlife church service and others checking out a tattooed map detailing the back passage of a beggar's bum.

This is a land glowing with silk and honey. But beware ... there be giants.

If you are quick another exploration is about to set off which would be fun to join.

Welcome to the forum. Sure the game is designed for multiple group exploring concurrently. Do read the campaign setting and the few tweaked house rules to get a little understanding how this campaign works.

Then create a sheet in the dice roller, pm me a copy and introduce your character in the Tomb Raiders topic.

We have one guy reaching out to hirelings NPC's and new characters to assist him in an adventure that is about to leave town shortly so pretty much, you can jump straight into the action when you are ready.

I will add you to the group profile so you can post in the forum.
