ok some basic stuff about my game i'm dubbing "The Forge" and answers to some basic questions to help get started
It is a vary home brew setting(more to info to come
) so basically anything goes in terms of character backstory just let me know and ill make things work if i can this means non standard race and class pending approval or maybe a tweak to an idea or to to make it work
I will start as soon as your character is ready in your private thread until some of you meet and will move to a main thread (mostly so i can get a gang of the hole dming thing)
How fast or slow of a pacing do you want to set? Some games require that players post once a day, every three days, or once a week.
so i'm going with the standard if you don't post within 3 days ill move you forward as an npc but the more we post the more we get to play
What is the characters' starting status (i.e. experience level)?
were starting at level 5
How much gold or other starting funds will the characters begin with?
you will get one of two options take the starting gear that you get with class/background pulse two roll for gold based on class or get three gold rolls
By what method should Players generate their attributes/ability scores and Hit Points?
the standard roll 4d6 drop the lowest
Do you allow multi-classing, or have any particular rules in regards to it?
yes go for it you wanna take all 5 of your levels in different classes as long as you meet the requirements go for it
Will you be doing all of the die rolling during the course of the game? Will die rolls be altered, or left to the honor system? If players can make die rolls, which ones do they make, how should they make the rolls, and how should they report them?
A combination of me rolling and you. i will roll if i feel i need to for you but you should be rolling your stuff with
http://www.unseenservant.com/ and the campaign number is 478 (if you need help just ask)
Is a character background required? If so, how big? Are you looking for anything in particular (i.e. the backgrounds all ending up with the characters in the same city)?
yes and the more the better if you have interesting stuff ill work it into the story, but at least a few things id like you to answer for sure
1: description of what they look like
2:why they are adventuring
3:who they are personalty wise
4: at least a little backstory
Does your game involve a lot of hack & slash, puzzle solving, roleplaying, or a combination of the above?
more roleplay than the other two but there will be bits of all three
let me know if you have any more questions!
