At least you can post yours. You don't even want to know about my druid who had an obsession with all things phallic.

Long story short, Those pirates never saw it coming.

Also, just a note, try not to put my druid around any pirates.

Pirates....

DM: Your party beats the ship full of pirates with ease, especially the warlock who was just flying out of the range of there swords.
Me: ((Haha! Teach them not to buy bows!))
DM: One remains alive, only slightly hurt. He is unarmed after the ordeal and begs for his life.
Barb: "Let's kill him."
Cleric: "No! He is unarmed!"
Me: "Wait, wait. I got this." *walks up to the pirate, speaking very seriously* "We have killed your captain, your fellow crew, and now it is only you and us. I only have one question for you: Are you a virgin?"
DM: The rusty old pirate gives you an odd look, "Um... yes?"
Barb: "... Eh?"
Cleric: "..."
Me: "Oh thank the gods! Finally a virgin! This city is horrible, not even the little kids are virgins! Everyone said they were not, gods finally!" *takes out a dagger and stabs him in the gut* "I sacrifice him to my god!" *guy dies*
Barb: "Aw... I wanted to..."
Cleric: "What?! No! You did not just sacrifice him to your god! What are you doing?! What evil god do you worship?!"
Me: "Huh? Moradin?"
Cleric: "The god of dwarves? You're human... and he is good!"
Me: "Yes, but everyone knows that Moradin is just a front for Wee Jas."
Cleric: "What?!"
Barb: "Haha! Oh wow!"
DM: ((*Is uncontrollably laughing.*))
Barb: ((*Is as well.*))
Cleric: ((*Not amused,* Wait, isn't your warlock chaotic good?!))
Me: ((Yeah, he just doesn't know any better.))

I wasn't going to say anything out of the virtue of the game, but I feel like Ponats has forced my hand...

DM: You all find yourselves shackled on the Pirate Boat, sailing to the nearest settlement so that you may be sold into slavery...Around you are several pirates ensuring that there is no escape from the belly of the ship.
Me: I begin to cast a spell!
Pirates: Yarg! What be you doing thar!?
Me: WOOD SHAPE!

Instantly, several phallic objects fire forth from the floor of the ship, "impaling" the pirates.

DM: ((You didn't really just do that, did you?))
Me: ((Yes. Yes I did.))
DM: Okay, so what do you plan to do now with these angry and anally penetrated pirates?
Me: -Casts Wood Shape again-

Spikes errupt from the phallic objects and turn the pirates into pin cushions from the inside out.

DM: ...
Me: Well, I only have one more Wood Shape today.

We *really* need to get started... lol.

Um.... Yeah, just a bit.
Although, I now know what 'phallic' means.

Anyway, thanks for explaining all of that Standardfiend, I think I've finally got it. (Or at least I really, really hope I do.)
I guess I'll get to work on my bio and such now.

In Character thread is up. kingdom-come-closed-t26180.html

You will have time in just a bit in the roleplay to introduce your characters, and develop some connections between the characters, etc.

Also, korrock: We are no longer accepting new characters. Also, the rules state that I will not be accepting Evil characters.

To everyone else: I love the conversation Thanks for being patient, I've been quite busy, and I will soon be putting together the Accepted Character thread.

Edit: Rigel, your character needs some extra important equipment. Besides that, he looks great. The equipment that you need is:
Backpack with waterskin,
bedroll, flint and steel.
The most important: spellbook.
Edit: Actually, I did not see that you had the Eschew Materials feat. You do not need the Spell component pouch, but do need the spell book. I'll write them down on my copy of your character sheet. Besides that you should be good. I will also adjust your amount of gold to compensate.
Also, your familiar doesn't seem complete, and when you post your Biography, please include the spells that your character has prepared for that day. Every new morning that your character gets a full night of sleep and has time to study his spell book, please include in your post the list of spells that he is going to prepare for that day. Also you need to include a list of spells that are in your spell book (Spells known).

Wait, the in-character thread is up? We get to start? We finally get to start?! Woo-hoo!

Hmm ....

In the time-honored tradition of playing the arcane spell caster in the party, it is only proper that my first action in the game will be to ... cast Magic Missile on the darkness. Of course, upon hitting 5th level, I can envision what will happen:

DM: "Alright, SleepyShadow, it's your turn. What do you do?"
Me: "I cast Fireball on the orcs."
DM: "The room's pretty small. You'll be caught in the blast, too."
Me: "No sweat. I have an Amulet of Fire Protection."
DM: "But you'll fry the rest of the party!"
Me: "Oh yeah ... Do I get experience points for killing them, too?"

Just kidding ^_^

Hah. That would be quite the scenario.

I have one question before I begin:

Krogren, would you like us to write in past, present, or future tense?

Are our characters together? >>

If so, why are we together? <<

Also, what are we allowed to make up and not make up? (Like my character would like to travel with a caravan. Traveling in a group is much safer than alone.)

Last question, are we all meeting at that spot? Like the 'meet up spot' for the group in the storm?

Doesn't a party of five strapping young men and three capable young women make a good caravan?

StandardFiend wrote:Doesn't a party of five strapping young men and three capable young women make a good caravan?

Yes it could, but then questions like: What are we caravanning? How did we hook up? Why are we out here?

I mean my character is out to hunt for her sister, thinking she is out here.

I am sorry if I ask a lot, but I love the little things detail. xD

Present is probably the best: "Lancet attempts to turn the undead zombies."
However, you can use past tense, though it seems a bit more difficult in the D&D scenario. Please, no future tense. I find it annoying, lol. "I will run up to the zombie and smash his head in with my mace" <- When, now? or next turn? etc.
As DM I will use some past tense, and present tense (Yes yes, bad Roleplaying style.)

Ponats: First two questions are up to you. (If you read the In Character thread, the Tor is the only cover from the elements for some miles. So, you will be meeting up there, one way or another (I am not afraid to use a bit of the weather rules )
Third question: You can describe the area about you (unless we are in a dungeon), describe what your character sees, and attempt to act in character as much as possible. If your character wants to travel with a caravan, then that may be permissible. It will be an interesting twist on the adventure, however the caravan cannot be combat oriented NPCs. So, if you got attacked you would be the one doing the majority of protecting them.

Last question, it appears that you will have to, as the Tor is the only place of shelter.

Also, Ponats. It is definitely possible that during the course of this campaign that Lancet finds her sister. Could you PM me a quick Personality/Bio/Motivation of her sister? That would be great. And really, if you guys are together or separate etc is up to the players. You can be together, or you can be separate, but the adventure should bring everyone together if they are apart.

Well, we could have met one of several ways. Here are the three I present to you, and I pray to every deity in existence you don't pick the third one.

1) Though we each have our own individual destinations, we met on the road in ones and twos, since we are all heading North up the Sword Coast. During the course of our travels along the same general road, a heavy rain washed out the road, and, seeking shelter from the driving rain and lightning, we veered off into the woods.

2) Some of us were bandits (the neutral characters), while the rest of us were merchant guards or innocent bystanders. The death toll was great on all sides of the conflict, leaving only a handful alive (the PCs), when a trio of ogres showed up and jumped in on the fun. Those alive had to grudgingly work together to escape alive.

3) We were all in the same tavern by happenstance, when a mysterious old man in a black cloak hands one of us a map and says, "I have a job for you, youngsters ..."

What do you think?

Ha, every fantasy roleplay I've attempted to join has started in a tavern. None of them got past the first page though... If my vote counts for anything, I'd really like to chose path number two. It sounds like something my rogue would buy into, though I suppose it might not suit many other characters.

I've just typed up my apperance and bio/personality sections, so I'm all set to go. They're on page 3.

Ponats, if you're still doing the caravan thing, I could have Elros join Lancet there. They don't necessarily have to be best buds just yet, but Elros could have joined the group at some point along the road.

And then, we could combine some of SleepyShadow's suggestions.

If we're dragging along carts with our belongings and the road becomes washed out, travel becomes impossible, so it stands to reason that we'd seek shelter until the road dries out a bit. If the caravan consists mainly of merchants and such folk, it would be a prime target for a group of bandits or rogues. While somebody (the other PCs) takes on our guys in the woods to distract them, somebody else (maybe some NPCs as well as other PCs) begins looting our stuff.

But then, some wandering ogres (or perhaps bugbears, since we're just level 1), who smelled our foodstuffs from a distance, come wandering in with a few goblin underlings and set to work messing all of us up to make off with our goods and women. The bandits don't want to lose their hard-fought prize, while the "good-guys" don't want to give up their belongings. So we team up to take out the ogres/bugbears, then decide that we need to seek shelter or we'll all become waterlogged. And thus we discover the tor.

Now, put all of that into past-tense to assume it's already happened, and we have ourselves a deal. Any thoughts?

I like it, SF ^_^ I suppose that bugbears would be a bit more appropriate, since even ONE ogre would be a challenge for us, especially if the ogre gained a surprise attack, followed by winning round 1 initiative. He could take out one, or even two characters before we had a chance to react. Maybe more if he had the Cleave feat ...

Anyway, my near-meaningless babbling piques a question in my brain: are we doing static initiative, or round-by-round initiative? I've played both ways, so I was just curious.

No idea, I'll let the DM go nuts with it. xD

Yeah, anyone can be with the caravan if you like. Go ahead and join in. ^^ I already wrote my post and started cooking food. xD

Also sent you the info for her sister, Krogren. The basic info is linked in Lancet's character profile.

Standard Fiend has a good idea. The Bugbears/goblins could run off into the Tor ahead of you and you are forced to follow due to the inclement weather. I can easily adjust the adventure for this.
Also, the Accepted Character Reference thread is up: kingdom-come-accepted-characters-t26188.html

That would be the place to post if I have any mistakes on your character sheet, and the place for you to post biographies and personalities if your character does not currently have one.

Sleepy: Static Initiative.

For some reason, I had the idea that I was there as a guide through the forest. I have no other real conceivable reason for my character to associate with others, so I'm up for that scenario. I don't see very many druids in a tavern as it is.
