The recently rediscovered continent of Dusst holds secrets, magic, wealth and power waiting to be claimed. We currently have 5 characters that have started and things are going well so I am posting here again to see if anyone else feels like joining in.
This game has a story and plot to follow but the order in which you follow it is completely up to you. That makes this sort of a sandboxy, character driven game. Have a look HERE for the details about the game and at the Campaign Tab for the character creation rules.
The game is using P6 as a base, meaning max level is 6 but experience points can be spent on gaining gestalt classes as well as the usual Epic feats to allow character advancement to continue indefinitely. I am also open to testing out 3PP(Psionics, Spheres of Power, Spheres of Might and Path of War are all on the list).
This sounds like a lot of fun. I'd love to give it a shot.
I'm thinking of making a dwarf paladin, as a support/solo character. It's not finalized yet though.
One important question. Do you expect much downtime or travel? Virtual days and weeks are typically faster than IRL.
Would we have enough time to craft, or to use Master of the Ledger?
(Invest money for a 1/month potential return)
I'm not sure there will be any downtime. Crafting anything significant could take quite a while. Travel isn't quick straight away either. You don't start with a mount and would have to acquire one.
You could take Master of the Ledger, though waiting for a month to pass could take a while also and not be worth it.
All I could hear was the sound of my own voice repeating some cockamame story in case someone figured out I wasn’t supposed to be here. And why did every other room have to be hermetically sealed?
I had been expecting next gen, probably VR helmet, but this place was waaay beyond that. Surprisingly, no one did stop me. After I came back from the bathroom for the fourth time, I got to put the gear, and the rest of the world just disappeared behind endless lists of options.
“H-hello?” Not much of the orientation made it through, but I think I remembered some sort of built in helper.
“Do you need assistance?” A vaguely female autonomous voice spoke up.
“Yeah, I didn’t mind the dwarves and this look, but all these other options seem … kind of boring or don’t really fit. It’s supposed to be a dangerous world in there. I don’t want to die on the first day. Who else do you have that carries a big shield?”
The reply seemed to take a few moments “We have an experimental build, a warrior of the church, with special abilities, primarily support.”
”The church!? Really? That seems so boring. Then again, having a lightning throwing big guy at my back might not be so bad. Let me have it.”
Looking over the next options, I wanted something more. “What are some of the non-standard options?”
" … Accessing "
Scrolling through until something catches my eye. ”I think I could use this one. … an orphan twice over, … worships a dragon god, … generally the odd duck. Do me a favor, read me the summary out loud.”
”Nilas, practically grew up running in and out of the dragon tomb at the edge of town. No one paid him any mind, he was just another weird kid running around, adopted, a dwarf to boot, in an aboveground town. He loved the stories his adoptive father told him about it, before he passed himself of consumption. Instead of going back to the orphanage, Nilas opted to enroll at the monastery. He kept his own faith, and the book learning never quite stuck. The physical lessons were a bit more promising, but as soon as he could get away he did. Nilas always had this fantasy that some of the legends he heard about had to still be out there, and by the gods, he was going to try to find them.”
I was done messing around, " Go ahead and just fill in some thematic options for the rest of this and let me in!”
“Access granted. Enjoy your stay with us at Diamondtech”
Sorry, it takes me an age and a day to make a character, plus it's been a busy week.
Meh, crafting and merchanting is boring anyways.
That looks fine. Post in the discussion thread with your dwarven cleric and I will get your introduction post up with the next update.
