Thanks Taren! See you in the maze.
OK, just don't eat me! ;-)
If we start with no gear, I think my character is good to go.
GM--OK if I switch out sure-footed for fleet of foot? Seems important for the chase.
Taren -- epic chases may not be all the time, but I approve the switch.
Lanayru is new to the forums, and is invited to be in this game as recruitments can be rough. Look at Taren's alias, Lanayru, and cut and paste into yours. Then make the changes to your character in the appropriate section.
Seems we have barbarian, summoner, monk, swashbuckler so far. Let me know what you want to play. Magic-user could be fun with the right spells.
Welcome, Lanayru. Nice to have a new player. Are you trying to decide what to play?
I assume you know about d20pfsrd.com that gathers all the options in one place.
Maybe Lanayru wants to lurk a while--profile is still empty.
Taren and Bjorn are loaded in the elevator bringing our number to four. May have some split scenes to have them get acquainted while the runners see if they get back or make it to a maintenance hatch in the maze.
Could use two to four more if anyone is still interested.
TIPS TO THE PLAYERS -- Written by the creator of D&D Gary Gygax many years ago
It often helps for beginning players to have advice on how to play D&D. Many points are overlooked by novices in their eagerness to get on with the adventure, The following points are given to help these players. Most importantly, players should be organized and co- operative. Each player should have complete information on his or her character easily on hand and should supply the DM with this information quickly and accurately if asked. As parties will usually involve a variety of alignments and classes, players should work together to use their abilities effectively. Arguing among players will cause delays, attract monsters, and often result in the deaths of some or all of the members. Cooperation should also be given to the DM. He or she is the judge of the game and his or her decisions are final. If a player disagrees, he or she should calmly state why, and accept whatever the DM decides. Shouting, crying, pouting, or refusing to accept decisions only angers the other players. The game should be fun for all involved. Not every- thing will go the way players want it. Planning is another important part of play. Players should be well equipped, comparing each member’s list and balancing the items on each. No character should be over- burdened nor under-equipped. This may mean sharing the costs of extra items. Rope, oil, torches, spikes, and other useful items should always be carried. Plans should be considered for encountering monsters and casting spells. Caution is also necessary and is a part of planning. A party that charges forward without preparation is almost certainly doomed. Danger should be expected at any moment and from any direction, possibly even from one’s own party. Lying and trickery are not unknown. Cautious play will help avoid many (but not all) tricks and traps and may save a life. However, too much caution is as dangerous as too little. Many instances will require bold and quick actions on the part of the players, before all is lost. Above all a player must think. The game is designed to challenge the minds and imaginations of the players.
Those who tackle problems and use their abilities, wits, and new ideas will succeed more often than fail. The challenge of thinking is a great deal of the fun of the game.
Awesome quote. Master of the Game is a great read. I highly recommend it!
