Hey guys, Please use this thread as a place for your OOC questions and discussion points, or general banter. Right now we need to decide on how you would like to generate stats for your characters, and what method of tracking combat (maps, theater of the mind etc) we are going to use. Throw your preferences and ideas at me y'all, and we'll make a democratic decision on how we'd like to proceed.
Hello everyone! I am a GM new to these forums, though not to the game itself. I would like to dip my toes into the wonderful world of PBP, and I figured there would be no better way than to do so by running the first module of one of my favourite Pathfinder adventures. I'll be doing things a little differently though, as I am in love with the simplicity of the DnD 5e rules I have converted the module to suit. As such, those players selected will be offered a link to a campaign on my DnD Beyond account, granting access to a number of books for character creation. As such, the focus on this recruitment thread will be on your backstory. Guidelines:
At this stage, I only really require answers to the following questions: 1) Background - Give me a bit of info regarding your character. I don't expect a novel; remember we are 1st level here and have had pretty limited experience as far as adventuring goes. A hook linking your character to Gaedran Lamm is a definite must (check out the CotCT Players guide for more info if you are unfamiliar with this module). 2) Character role - Just a brief overview of your planned class choice, background and role within the group. 3) Combat maps preference - Would you prefer we use Roll20? Google Docs? Theatre of the mind? or do you have another rad suggestion to help out a new GM? 4) Your playstyle - Why do you play the game? Do you love rolling a character with wicked stats and a huge sword who is a total combat badass? Do you prefer getting to know the other players and the world, and enjoy connecting to the setting? A mixture of both? Help me tailor this game to your tastes, so we can make sure that eeryone has a good time. 5) The first character you remember playing in a tabletop game, and a memorable moment you had. This can be as detailed as you want it to be; I would really like to get a feel for why you have continued to play this crazy game. Plus, everyone like to share old gaming war stories, right?
I am looking for a party of 4 - 6 characters. Recruitment will close NLT Midnight, 24 NOV 18. Of course, if interest has well and truly waned, or I feel that there have been enough awesome submissions it may close early. If so, I will afford everyone 48hrs notice to finalise their applications. Feel free to hit me with questions, or anything that I've missed and I'll gladly respond ASAP.
Hello all! I've been lurking on these forums for quite a while now, and I've finally mustered up the nerve to throw my hat into the mix. In order to build a posting history, I've decided to run (at least the first book) of Curse of the Crimson throne. This is merely an interest check to see if there are any who would like to participate. I'll be running the game on these forums, using DnD 5e rules and the DnD Beyond interface to manage character sheets, items etc. Feel free to post if you're interested, and if numbers show that we can put a party together I'll start a recruitment thread. Thanks for your time, looking forward to my first foray into PbP gaming! |
