<p>The spoiler tags below will explain what I have in mind, as well as setting up character creation rules and whatnot. In short, I am looking for 4 players to start, plus 1 NPC that I will be running to be the 'face' of the group. He may or may not make it through to the end of the campaign, but he will not draw from the XP pool. I plan to keep this open at least through the weekend, possibly to a full week (that is, though the 19th) depending on strength of submissions and overall interest. </p>

<p>I believe that I have covered the highlights, although I'll always remember something just after the 1 hour mark on a post, so if you think I've missed anything, please just ask. I'd like to see some kind of background for your character, i.e. what made your AI decide you wanted to be class X for example. That being said, I'm not looking for dissertations on <i>War and Peace,</i> you've only been around for about a month, afterall. I look forward to seeing all of your entries.</p>I have been itching to run this campaign since I bought Book 1 (The Worldwound incursion) a few months back.
