Alrighty Then...Let's get this party started shall we? A few items I would like to address first:
Adventure Thread Posts
1) Please begin each post you make, as your character, with the following information:
[Character Name – Class & Lvl] (HP: Current/Total Avail) (AC: Total)
2) Follow this with any actions you may wish to perform such as hold, charge, grapple, defensive stance, retreat, etc. Just a few basic words about your intent that round.
3) Next should come the actions your character will take, along with any dialog. Try not to be too specific here, such as Harold chops the Giant Slug's antenna off. If you want to attempt this type of action that is fine (may require a difficulty check), just have your post reflect Harold is trying to do so, not that he does it. The DM will do the doing.
4) Follow this with any Dice Roller links. I would like your Dice Rolls formatted as follows:
Initiative, Attack (includes ability modifiers), Damage (includes ability modifiers): Initiative [1d10], Greataxe [1d20+3], Damage [1d8+3]
Example Post:
[Harold – Fighter 0] (HP: 5/6) (AC: 12)
Attack
Harold looks at Taran and says, “
I don’t know about you, but I hate slugs.” With a large smile he hefts his greataxe with both hands and charges at the Giant Slug with a great yell, “
Aaaaaaaaah!”
Initiative [1d10] = 1, Attack [1d20+3] = 16+3 = 19, Damage [1d8+3] = 3+3 = 6
OOC: Some players may find this annoying, but in the end it is really quite simple and allows everyone, including the DM who has to compile all the action into one post, to comprehend basic actions quickly.
