The Dungeon

Game Master fearcypher

Basically I have been having an itch to run a game that hearkens back to some older school dungeon crawls. All monsters, loot and rooms would be randomly generated via random tables. As would player stats. I am on the fence about character race so that would be a personal preference. Also I will want the 4 basic classes(Cleric Wizard Fighter Rogue[Unchained]) before taking any other classes. 6 player cap but I may run a second game if there is sufficient interest.

Stats: 3d6 in order.
Races: Core only
Classes Core with Unchained classes being allowed if desired.
Roll for gold and HP in thread.
If you roll for your race it is a d7 as follows
1: dwarf
2: elf
3: half elf
4: Half orc
5: halfling
6: Gnome
7: Human

I'm located in Eastern Standard time but I post at almost any time of the day.

I look forward to getting players. Have fun.

3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 2) = 7 str
3d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 1) = 11 dex = 13
3d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 2) = 8 con = 6
3d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 4) = 8 int = 10
3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 5) = 13 wis
3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 4) = 9 cha

race: 1d7 ⇒ 2 elf

Unless I allowed to re-roll...there is NO WAY I can make anything viable or survivable. I am out XD

As an addendum Do not worry about your character being too bad. Once You're in game any death will result in a new character. Until Raise Dead is available to be cast by a PC.

Also recruitment will end at the end of the month. if there are not enough applications then I will extend it.

I'm quite interested in this, lets see what I get.

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 3

3 = Half-elf

Strength: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 2) = 12
Dexterity: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 2) = 4
Constitution: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3) = 6
Intelligence: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 3) = 11
Wisdom: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 1) = 6
Charisma: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 2) = 9

Oh boy... I will make a half elf wizard then. With the following stats

Strength = 12
Dexterity = 4
Constitution = 6
intelligence = 11+2 = 13
Wisdom = 6
Charisma = 9

Hitpoints: 1d6 ⇒ 6
Wealth: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 4) = 7 = 7*10 = 70 gp

Well at least he hit point roll went well. I will try to have an alias with a finished character together by Monday.

Str3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 2) = 8
Dex3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 2) = 7
Con3d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 5) = 11
Int3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 1) = 12
Wis3d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 3) = 9
Cha3d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 6) = 10

I will see if it is worth it to try and come up with something.

str: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 3) = 15
dex: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1) = 7
con: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 5) = 15
int: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 4) = 12
wis: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 5) = 7
cha: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 3) = 9

race: 1d7 ⇒ 7

looks like a human barbarian or fighter for me.

with the current rolls, we may not get a raise dead. nobody will have the necessary wisdom score to cast it.

Dotting for interest from my phone.

If any player can get a 13 starting wisdom then with the increase at 4th and 8th they'd be able to cast it once they have 5th level spells

Strength: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 1) = 11
Dexterity: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 5) = 8
Constitution: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 5) = 12

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 2

Looks like I end up with an Elf doing...anything, aside from Rogue. Definitely workable. Anything else you need me to roll for? You want HP and Gold here? And are we rolling for HP at first level, or taking max?

Well, I could be a Rogue. It would certainly make for an interesting time. Should I come up with a character now, or wait for you to decide who's playing?

HP and wealth are rolled in chat. Don't necessarily worry about selecting your class as I will most likely not have too many applications so I should be able to take in most applicants. So selecting class early on is allowed but it will not really matter until after the applicants are selected.

Then I'll wait for selection before doing anything else.

Just to see what comes up...

Strength: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 5) = 11
Dexterity: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 2) = 8
Constitution: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4) = 11
Intelligence: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 4) = 9
Wisdom: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3) = 6
Charisma: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 6) = 10

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 5

Hit Points: 1d10 ⇒ 7
Wealth: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 3, 5, 5) = 20 x10

Looks like a halfling fighter.

FINAL ATTRIBUTES
Strength 9
Dexterity 10
Constitution 11
Intelligence 9
Wisdom 6
Charisma 12

Hit Points 7
Wealth 200 gp

Yeah, I'm in. It's going to be a hard road to hoe, but I'll give it a whirl.

I'll do it, i guess
race: 1d7 ⇒ 4
str: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4) = 14
con: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 1) = 8+2=10
dex: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 6) = 17
int: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 3) = 14
wis: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 1) = 8
cha: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 4) = 13
Half-orc ranger then.

in chat? is this a PbP or something else?

also are you determining our class?

This will be PbP, sorry if there was any confusion. Players will determine their own class, but keep in mind that no other classes will be picked until there is at least one application for each core role(Cleric, Wizard, Fighter, Thief).

Let's see...

Str : 3d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 1) = 8
Dex: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 2) = 7
Con: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 3) = 12
Int: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 4) = 15
Wis: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 5) = 12
Chr : 3d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 4) = 11

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 1

So, a dwarf wizard!

Wealth: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 5) = 8 --> 80gp

HP: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

This would be fun!

This sounds like fun

STR: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5) = 9
DEX: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 2) = 13
CON: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 4) = 12
INT: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 6) = 15
WIS: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 4) = 15
CHA: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 1) = 10

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 2

Pretty solid elf reporting in.

3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 2) = 6
3d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 2) = 12
3d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 6, 2) + 2 = 14
3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1) = 13
3d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 2, 4) + 2 = 13
3d6 - 2 ⇒ (1, 2, 3) - 2 = 4
1d7 ⇒ 1
Dwarf
Str 6
Dex 12
Con 14
Int 13
Wis 13
Cha 4

Dont know what i'd be, but i'm game.

I'll be withdrawing

Alrighty, lets see what the dice gods bring me.

Str: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 6) = 10
Dex: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 4) = 9
Con: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 4) = 15
Int: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 6) = 13
Wis: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 6) = 8
Cha: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 5) = 12

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 4

With this stat array, a middle aged Half-Orc Wizard would be the strongest choice.

Str 9 (10-1)
Dex 8 (9-1)
Con 14 (15-1)
Int 16 (13+2+1)
Wis 9 (8+1)
Cha 13 (12+1)

I'll save rolling hp/money until classes are decided.

I have decided to wait to make an alias until classes/participants are decided upon as well, though I am still leaning towards the half elf wizard

Thats fine Rostam.

We have about 9 applicants at the current moment so I will run two games.

Those are some tough stat generating rules but lets see what happens.

Str: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 2) = 7 = 5
Dex: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 5) = 15 = 17
Con: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 3) = 10 = 10
Int: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 6) = 11 = 11
Wis: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 4) = 12 = 12
Chr: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 4) = 15 = 17

2 15's - not bad. I think we need some flexibility to fill the basic 4 classes though, so I don't think I should roll for race, but everyone else is, so ...

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 5

So a weak halfling rogue, sorcerer, or bard.

Love me some random dice chaos!

race: 1d7 ⇒ 3

Strength: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 2) = 10
Dexterity: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 5) = 14
Constitution: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 1) = 9
Intelligence: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 6) = 12
Wisdom: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 6) = 17
Charisma: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 2) = 8

Druid... or ranger... or Monk!

I'll see whats needed but I'm in if you'll have me.

L

Ps: I like the fact we're all not that great on stats and might die a lot, it's more interesting if we're not all muscle-bound egg-heads, plus we get to make new characters!

I'm glad you enjoy this. I enjoy heroes that don't have the best of every stat and get to make the most of what they have. It leads to more creative gameplay and cuts down the power level a good bit. Also playing a brutish fighter with terrible dex can be tons of fun to roleplay. I would rather play this but there doesn't see to be any people doing it so I decided to run it.

Been looking to get into a PbP and this looks perfect...

Here's what RNGesus gave me...

1d7 = 1 = Dwarf
Strength: 3D6 => (2 +4 +4) = 10
Dexterity: 3D6 => (1 +4 +1) = 6
Constitution: 3D6 => (2 +2 +3) = 7 +2 (dwarf) = 9
Intelligence: 3D6 => (5 +2 +5) = 12
Wisdom: 3D6 => (6 +2 +2) = 10 +2 (dwarf) = 12
Charisma: 3D6 => (3 +3 +2) = 8 -2 (dwarf) = 6

Hmm...With stats like that I think it is best if I stick with hitting things.

Let's do an Unchained Barbarian.

Why not?

Strength: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 1) = 4
Dexterity: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 2) = 9
Constitution: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 1) = 3
Intelligence: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 1) = 5
Wisdom: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 3) = 8
Charisma: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 2) = 9

Hit Points: 1d8 - 2 ⇒ (3) - 2 = 1
Starting Wealth: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4, 4) = 15x10=150 gp

Race: 1d7 ⇒ 1 Dwarf

OMG, that is fantastic.

Final Stats:
Str: 4, Dex: 9, Con: 5, Int: 5, Wis: 10, Cha: 7

I think I'm gonna make him an unchained Rogue.

Today is our deadline for applications. So far here is who we have who has not withdrawn.

1 Rostam.
2 Thorn "Rat"
3 Edward Sobel
4 Valjeon_KC
5 WhtKnt
6 Legoguy
7 Uthraed
8 Junalee
9 Barebate
10 AGamer70
11 Louxman
12 BC4realz
13 Vrog Skyreaver.

We have 13 people, and I am on the fence about running a game with 7 players. This game is probably going to be pretty story light with very little RP, especially early on. So if a combat centric game isn't your cup of tea then this may not be for you. Later on I may attempt to add in more story/RP but I am running a few RL games and I have to tailor everything for those because running stuff as written fails horribly, so this is basically going to be my easy mode for DMing so for a while the plot is going to be almost nonexistant (I.E, let's dive into a lich's dungeon)

Anyway if we still have over 12 applicants I will, keeping in spirit with the game, roll to see who will be in the game and who will not.

*gasp* You mean you will use a 1d12? And I thought I was the Barbarian. :D

A 1d13 surely... THE DEVIL'S DICE!

1d13 ⇒ 1. !!!!!!!!

I am going to go ahead and withdraw. I'm more of a role-playing kind of person. Have fun, all!

Alright everybody it's that time again.

Here is the lineup for the two games.

Game 1 - The Crawl
Rostam
Uthraed
Junalee
BC4realz
Vrog Skyreaver
Edward Sobel

Game 2 - The Slog
Valjeon
Barebates
AGamer
Louxman
Legoguy
Thorn Rat

Please report to your appropriate discussion threads.

Good Luck.
