Refresh DM Seeks Players(3.5 DnD play by post): Inquire Inside

[swordwind]

Hello Adventurer's,

I'm seeking about 3-4 people to start up a game I've been planning on running with a few twists here and their. Overall you will be an adventuring group traveling from area to area righting the wrongs and troubles of the land. But for now your just your character. So here's the requirements that I'm seeking.

Player Requirements:

• Need to at least post once every 2-3 days.

• Needs to post at least five to ten sentences.

• Needs to ask questions in game or about the game through PM's updates will follow

• Wants to have a longing last game and seeks to enjoy their character and companions characters

• 
  Needs to color code their posts.

Should you be able to meet these requirements then please create a level 4 character with a back story. Do not worry about equipment right now.  I want you to make your character and flesh them out first. Since the internet has nearly every single book on DnD in some shape or form I would like the first 4 levels of the character straight out of the primary DnD book.(3.5 Players Handbook, 3.5 DMG, 3.5 Monster Manual) No source books at this time. Once the game has begun source books will be allowed as you level up.

Character Creation Guidelines:

Race: Primary Races and perhaps a monster race for one of you.

Abilities: 5d6 drop the lowest 2

Hit Points: You have maximum Hit Points for the first 4 levels-

Special Roll 2d6 and record the results of the roll and send them to be via PM

Story:
“Ok children quiet down now. It’s time for your story.” You hear an elderly man say. He holds a large leather bound book in his gnarled hand with golden letters on its title. He smiles as his long white beard flows off his face and onto his old brown robes. He rests in a large wooden chair next to a burning fire and he raises his hand to quiet you. “Children I have a grand tale to read to you. It’s about our history on Denraa. It’s a wonderful tale that I’m sure you will enjoy. It’s about how this age of the world came to be. Here you will learn the truth about the Keepers and the Seed that changed the face of Denraa and not the tales your parents told you. Of the trails and hardships these brave few went through and the fate that befell each of them in the end.” He places the book up his lap and opens the cover. “Gather around now so you can all hear me. Our tale will start on Chapter One. The Meeting of the Keepers and their first Adventure. Dammit! Wake up child and pay attention.  Now In the beginning….

Im interested. Is adult themes allowed or is it strait Old fashion Dnd?

[NicciKotor]

Always a good question. Also need to spell out what the starting level and starting gold will be.

[SpiralSpider]

I'd definitely be interested as well. I'll edit my post with more info later. :3

[Tambit]

I'm interested, but will not be able to really get into it for a few weeks.

[Aether]

I would like to play a level four wood elf monk if there are openings still  ^.^

[PhantomPistoleer]

I'm going to express interest;  but I might just be snagging at this because it's 3.5.

[swordwind]

Aurora Wayland: It will be a mixture of the two.

NicciKotor: I stated within my first post that you would be 4th level. Gold and gear wasn't listed at the time for character creation reasons.

Chaznia: Good to hear. If you need more information just ask.

Tambit: That's a long time to wait, by that time the game may well be starting.

Aether: No characters have been presented but interest has been shown. Make away

PhantomPistoleer: well what would put you at ease then in regards to the game?

Everyone: For anyone interested in creating a character please send me a PM with the die roll from a 2d6 and it's results in order of the roll please.

Example: I rolled a 3 and a 6 or a 4 and a 5

[Aether]

Roll sent, creating character.

[NicciKotor]

Making myself a elf priestess. With range, so I better start seeing some meat shields being created.

[SpiralSpider]

I just had some recent developments so I think I'm going to have to withdraw my request. I may not have time to post as often as I'd like and I don't want to drag everyone else down. Sorry. :/

[swordwind]

That's fine, enjoy whatever it is that you have developing.

[Laughing Hyena]

You allowing Psions or Psychic Warriors by chance?

[NicciKotor]

Should probably mention the 2100 gp starting gold.

[swordwind]

I stated that equipment isn't of importance but your character that you will be creating. If you don't like that fact then we can address it elsewhere via PMs

Cute lady. Anyway heres my character's face.

[NicciKotor]

Cute lady. Anyway heres my character's face.

Not Cute Enough!

[Laughing Hyena]

You're blind.

Besides, you cannot unwrap a present early.

[Crovonovin]

Just throwing my wizard's hat into the ring for this one, so that anyone else thinking of concocting a character knows what the other prospective players are up to in terms of class.

[Laughing Hyena]

Currently I am trying to make a potent fighter build that combines protective magic to make myself even harder to hit. which limits me to fighter/cleric since arcane magic bites big when you try using magic in armor normally.

So far it seems things are falling into place rather nicely. If things continue to do so we can have something up and running by Monday. Till then I would like to work with you all and get any other questions answered. So far we have the following group.

Monk
Cleric
Fighter Hybrid
WIZARD
5th person ?

Knowing this I would like to point out that all of you will not be starting out with one another, you will all meet one another but starting out its just you me and the world.

If other players wish to express interest in joining this game please send me a PM and I will see what I can do for you.

[Laughing Hyena]

Kind of hit a brick wall  in my hybrid. I do not know whether or not I should pick cleric or mage. The point of the powers of a mage or cleric class is support spells that increase ac and strength.

[Crovonovin]

It might be a bit early to actually make them into a hybrid at level four.  Your best bet might be to take four levels of Cleric (more combat oriented than Nicci's healer, which is how I presume she's built hers).  Outfit it as you would a fighter (full-plate, two-hander, feats that complement a damage-fighter), with a balance between Strength, Constitution, and Wisdom.  Then begin taking levels in fighter once you feel you need to get access to some more juicy feats.

That's my two cents anyway!  You could just as easily follow that same advice and do any combination of Fighter/Cleric.  Not really sure how well a fighter would mesh with a casting class.  I think the benefits would be overshadowed by the detriments, as fighters already stand on somewhat shaky ground in this edition.

Hmmm, never tire out join DnD games and hope they keep going longer than month or two.....okay I toss in my rogue dagger and join in as half-elf!
