Anyone planning to run a Keep on the Shadowfell PBP?

Just a thought . . .


You?


I thought of that, but I'm already running a Crimson Throne game, and that's probably my limit.


We've got some crazy pbp action here these days. I'm sure we'll have a few 4E games rolling out when the rules are all out.


What the hell. It's Summer vacation, I'll do it.

The only requirement is that you somehow have a (rules-compliant!) 1st-level character, from wherever you can get one. I have the pregens for the adventure, of course, and would be willing to e-mail the relevant pages (only) to a player who doesn't have access. There are also pregens from DDXP floating around in the ether.

If you wish to rebuild when the PHB comes out, that will probably be fine. It's recommended that the party include at least one of each role -- defender (Fighter, Paladin); controller (Wizard); striker (Rogue, Ranger, Warlock); and leader (Cleric, Warlord).

I've also got a brief summary of the quickstart rules I can e-mail if you need them.

The adventure is pretty hack-and-slash, for what it's worth, but we can get our feet wet with 4th.

I'm seeking exactly five players. The call is open for at least 24 hours; sometime after midnight GMT Friday night, I'll randomly select from among those expressing interest by then. I'll also make a waitlist.

My ideal posting frequency for the players is about daily. I'm on and able to post most of most days (I'm on GMT-4), but will occasionally miss a day myself.

Die-rolling will be by whatever mode each player prefers -- I trust y'all.

I like rules, and I believe in the dice. I'll do my best with the 4e rules, though it may take a little breaking in. If bad things happen to either PCs or opponents due to the dice, so be it (though players whose characters are out of the game for one reason or another will be encouraged to re-enter, jumping to the front of the queue). I find this makes players more invested if the risks are real!

What else do you need to know?

Good, lawful good, or unaligned only. Please no antisocial loners.

I'd really rather have players who are not familiar with the adventure, or at least will not go beyond whatever you've already read, but I'll leave that up to you.

Questions?


I'm in for playing in your PbP with a good rogue.

All the best with this game, Pat. Should be a blast.

How are you going to handle the sliding/need for a grid etc?

I liked the simplicity of the adventure when I read it over the weekend.

Well...ok I'm in. It'll give me the chance to try out 4th Ed. If It's alright I'd like to take up a Paladin(never played a paly before) of the Raven Queen! Nothing says loving like an Unaligned paly of a Death God.

How would you like us roll stats? And what races can we use, gotta admit I like the racial stats in the MM.


And done. Used a 28 point buy for stats. If I need to change anything let me know.


Thanks, French. It will be tricky -- in my Crimson Throne game I'm using maps made on Google spreadsheets; it seems to work most of the time.

Lazaro, seeing as the books aren't officially out yet, please use the same guidelines as the pregens -- standard array, PHB races only.


Alrighty, switched to the standard array(applied my +2 stat bonus to CHA).

I deducted -2 from all my melee attacks. I just assume I'm always power attacking.

Liberty's Edge

Hey man,
Let me know if you need a player.
You know where to find me, LOL!
I have KotS and the pregens.
i am interested in trying out the new system, as well.


Alright, head to here
