Son of the Rune Stones: two players wanted: 4E


Gamer Connection


The game I've been running as a test crawl for 4E is coming rapidly to an end and some of the players have expressed interest in continuing with the same characters.

I'm mulling over where to send them next.

This a a call to see if anyone would like to join the happy gang on their next (yet to be specified) adventure. At present we have:

Arianwyn - Flamboyant eladrin warlock (Fabesminis)
Kia - Head Girl eladrin warlord (Thrugnipp)
Vel - Cranky human wizard (Pat of the Ninth Power)
Whiteclaw - Stubborn tank of a domesticated gnoll (Amelia)

We've lost or are losing, a dragonborn fighter and very likely a dwarf paladin, but don't feel constrained by class or race. The party are level 2 at the moment, but I will start the next adventure at level 3. Another couple of players would be very welcome.

Races and classes are PHB, FRPH, MM back of book, Dragon articles. If I've got access to the information, you can play it.

Be aware that I try and run fast-paced games and this won't suit everyone. If you want to see my style to test the waters, take a look at Rev's Rune Stones or Scepter Tower of Spellgard. Daily posting is pretty much a requirement.

As mentioned, the adventure is yet to be determined. I am tempted to try doing a conversion of one of the PF adventure paths if enough folks are interested, but I'm very open to suggestions.

As one of her players, allow me to endorse Rev's games:

I endorse Rev's games.

Thank you.

Seriously, she keeps things exciting and keeps them moving, both of which can be challenging in a pbp, and has spectacular NPCs.


Thank you Pat - how nice of you. I do try.

Rev, I'd love to join another of your games. Human Paladin alright with you?


Surely is.

Rev, what pantheon are you using? FR? If yes, I'll be a paladin of Tempus.


Stick with standard PHB pantheon please. Use FR feats and powers by all means - if there's something you want that's dependent on an FR deity, we'll adapt. Oh - no spellscarred. We're not in Faerun.

I'd like to throw my name into the hat.

The Good

I should be able to post quite regularly. I've got 28 years of D&D experience (mostly as DM). I'd be happy to play whatever the group feels that they need (Cleric? Rogue? Ranger?).

The Less Good

I have almost zero experience with pbp (I just joined one, which is just starting). I have played a bit of 4e, but only have access to the core books. I have read the first 2 PFAP's, and my other PBP is Second Darkness. I only have access to IC some of the time, so I will have to pre-roll a lot if that's your standard.

Let me know if this will work out.

I've got no problems with any of this. You are more than welcome. I'm veering away from using the APs and will do a single adventure again, so if that is an issue for you, do say. Probably a Goodman conversion.

As far as pbp experience is concerned, I don't think that matters nearly as much as a willingness to get involved. Likewise 4E, which to a great extent we are all still learning. I make mistakes, as we all will. It balances out in the end. Core books are fine. If you like, I'm sure someone can come up with extra bits for you from the Forgotten Realms stuff and other extra material.

Rolling. You can home roll if you like. I use IC for NPC and monster rolls if I can, but I'm happy to trust players.

I second Pat. I love playing in Rev's games.

Now a converted version of a PF adventure would be awesome!

Great! I've Dm'd Keep on the Shadowfell, and played in the 4e Delves at Origins and GenCon, but this is my first opportunity to play my own 4e character.

I'm thinking Halfling Rogue, Elf Ranger, or a Cleric (maybe a Tiefling). Any preferences from the group? I can probably have it together by tomorrow evening.


Cooking. I'll set up a game thread for this tomorrow morning UK time and you can start building, chatting and so on.

Lazaro - I will at some point try and do a full AP conversion, but the preference from the continuing players is to do another single adventure and effectively build their own AP. Would you like an alternate slot?

Scribbling Rambler - Build a character you'll have fun playing, but chat to the others over on the game thread when I get that up and see what they and you come up with between you all.

Sure. Cooking...cooking what?


Cooking = good. Random use of wordage. In this case indicating cooking up of violence, mayhem and disaster to visit on hapless pcs. :D My monsters roll appallingly, but I live in hopes that one day they'll do what they're meant to do.


Savage Blight - now has a discussion thread. Head on over and start thrashing out mechanics.

An unaligned lord of battle is fine with me.


That would be Kord then, Unaligned God of Strength and Storms.
