This is a DnD style campaign, old school style. This means that elements of DnD will play heavily in the RP but it will not be governed by the exact laws of DnD. And by old school I mean old school. Say hello to Dnd 2nd Edition. (That is where most of the DnD influence will come from, but as I said it is not limited to that nor is it bound by that. 3rd-5th edition influences and Pathfinder welcome. Just know I will be pulling a lot from some very old books, lol)

Cinder Sickness


The Convent Of The Sisters Of Light is pleading for help from the people of the realm. Our orphanage has been plagued with unique case of Cinder Sickness that all attempts to cure have failed. We have consulted both near and far and believe that we now know how to heal our poor children but we lack the strength to collect the ingredients we so desperately need. We are searching for strong and caring individuals to help save the lives of these innocent souls. Please contact Sister Agnes in the Village of Gorlton’s Apothecary for more information. We promise a great reward in exchange for the materials that we need.

The notice above has been sent out to various cities, villages, monasteries and forts throughout the land in hopes of drawing attention from near and far to bring together the right group of adventurers to take on this task before it is too late. Are you one of the chosen?

Your character can have caught wind of this notice in most any manner and your RP will begin as you arrive at the Village of Gorlton and make your way to the Apothecary. Please provide a CS either by way of PM or in the OOC – Do not post your CS on the CS page until it is approved

Name:
Age:
Alignment:
Race: (Limited to Human, Halfling, Elf, Half-Elf, Dwarf, Gnome - other races will be considered but need to be run by the gm first)
Class: Kits are welcome, dual classes allowed
Appearance/Clothing: Image can be provided
Skills:
Natural Abilities: (Race dictated)

Additional Information: (Such as gods a character might worship, flaws they may have, relationships the may be in, etc.)

Rules:

1. General Forum Rules Apply
2. Gm is God (or Goddess in this case.)
3. Isn’t on your approved character sheet, doesn’t exist – so plan well
4. Characters may possess up to 2 enchanted items – low grade, nothing grand.
5. Stay in character in IC.
6. Have a problem; bring it to the GM’s attention.
7. If you are going to be inactive, let the GM know.
8. This is High Casual RP – Minimal of two well-developed paragraphs per post.
9. No godmodding, bunnying or metagamming will be allowed. To do so will incur the wrath of the GM Goddess and I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those that would attempt such things.
10. Canon Rp – You’ve been warned.
11. Adult language will be present – once again you’ve been warned.
12. Posts that are awesome or crack me up will be rewarded.
13. Romance can happen – let it be natural, do not force it just to have a romance. Fade to black when needed. No Smut in IC.
14. Characters can be old or new, doesn't matter
15. And once again, Gm is Goddess.
16. Have fun.

I think that about covers it. These rules and outline can change at a moments notice; edits will be noted by date and brought to your attention by OOC. (Chat room will be provided to those in the RP by the GM once accepted and your characters introductory post is made.)

Edit: 8/1/15 Rule addition - If you wish to have any knowledge of another character that has to have been worked out before the introduction of your character to the RP itself. No suddenly "knowing" then or remembering them or of their people. And if you do know them before the introduction of your character make sure that is has been approved by the player of said character before hand and that the GM has been informed.

No editing your Cs without GM okay once it is posted.

As the story progresses, no monsters, finding tracks, seeing hidden passes and the like without GM okay. I will be sending out pm's after my posts when needed to certain players if it would be something your character would have noticed.

When fighting monsters, damage will be posted by the GM in the post after the attack occurs and each time during rotation until it is killed - Unless I just throw something simple at you and note in OOC - okay X amount of X monster attack, kill as you see fit, each person can take out X many.


Edit 2:8/1/15 - @Warrior in the Shadows is now Co-GM

Edit:8/2/15 - Item List -
Tear of Eyewing
Feather of Pegasus
Claw of Hellhound - collected
Whisker of Gnoll
Blood of Mist Dragon

Hmmm, I'm definitely going to play a human male, I think, due to my fondness for 'Mundane' type races. Probably going to roll up my 'pathological liar loveable coward' Thief from a previous game, but I'm flexible.

I've cross classed a Barbarian and a Bard before, just to make the pun

@The Fated Fallen My character in the D&D campaign I'm in is a rather unconventional Bard-Barbarian(well, only one level of barbarian which at this point has not much impact, but still). This will be a different flavor of unconventional.

Perhaps I shall join at some point, if some people (god forbid) drop out. For now we have a quaint little party going on, and it would be bad for this place to get overcrowded

@Kronshi I'll be posting mine shortly to give an idea

@TheWizardLizard Spells are allowed if you wish, might want to add in like knife and/or knife throwing into the skills so he can actually wield his weapons.

Edit: Okay, I posted my personal cs, you don't have to be as detailed, I am just personally a CSaholic

I don't know if I'm going to sound too know-it-all or something, but if there's a specific way you want people to format sheets you can use the code function to make it appear in a way that's easy to copy paste. For instance, if you wanted every section bolded you could write it like this:
[code][b]Name:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Alignment:[/b]
[b]Race:[/b] (Limited to Human, Halfling, Elf, Half-Elf, Dwarf, Gnome - other races will be considered but need to be run by the gm first)
[b]Class: [/b]Kits are welcome, dual classes allowed
[b]Appearance/Clothing: [/b]Image can be provided
[b]Skills:[/b]
[b]Natural Abilities:[/b] (Race dictated)
[b]Magic/Spells:[/b] (all spells must be listed, max of 7 for full magic users, max 5 for dual classes, max 3 for anyone else)
[b]Additional Information:[/b] (Such as gods a character might worship, flaws they may have, relationships the may be in, etc.)
[b]Weapons:[/b]
[b]Possessions:[/b]
[b]Personality:[/b]
[b]History:[/b]

Hehe, no, you're good. Not worried about bold and such, I just add it in for my own personal tastes.

Edited knife skills in, though I'll leave out the magic - just doesn't seem to make sense with his backstory.

Oh, by the old by, when I'm playing this character I tend to find it easier to work him into the 'quest' story if he's being dragged into it by another party member, seeing as how he doesn't much have the stomach for adventuring of his own accord. The first time, he'd been arrested and was released into the custody of the party leader as 'public service'.

If nobody wants to, I can think up a reason, but if someone'd like to volunteer to be strongarming Tobias into this little shindig, that might be fun.
