......The sun struggled to reach the forest floor as it hovered high overhead. It was spring in Candleshire and the great trees of the Greenwood wore their emerald crowns proudly.
The old trail was bordered on either side by the purple an blue star flowers which thrived in the shadows of the forest floor.
It was barely wide enough for a horse to walk along and in many places low hanging branches would have prevented the horse being ridden. The trail had no name and only those that lived at it's ends and were well versed adventures knew of it's existence.
The path was quite old and along it from time to time could be seen elven tor stones that marked the intersection of old elven roads which were now grown over an forgotten even by the elves themselves.
But this trail it passed many a beautiful sight as well as foreboding ruin but best known to all who walked it's path was "The Lonely Inn"
The Inn though secluded was no run down shack covered by moss an vine but a tidy little place near the "Slyph Falls" by the "Lost River"
It's proprietor Esmeralda Sirensong is a Raven haired beauty whom is known to be a Good Witch.
Far from the King's Highway the Inn's lovely land lord must brew or distill all that which she serve save a few bottles of rare vintage that were made gifts by former happy an grateful patrons.
There is no fighting allowed at the Inn and should one erupt then those that started it will find themselves magically banished by she who calls the Inn home an hearth.
In the Tavern the lady has Nymph which act as serving maids and watch the Inn when the Mistress isn't present.

Okay anyone who's read this far this is a more traditional D&D style setting
I want to see if you'll help me create a living world with countries and adventures in their mysterious lands
The Races allowed will be brief and sorry more mundane than some might wish
Humans.........Dwarves........Elves
Drow*...........Half-Elves.....Gnomes
Halflings......Orcs*...............Half-Orcs
I said mundane, LOL
I want to keep it this way at the beginning in order to prevent the over topping of Dragon Born, Vampires an Werewolves as well as other overused exotic types
Okay some have noticed the "*" over two of the races this is there to indicate that those characters of these races are Outcasts because they aren't of evil alignment. Like the rest of their race. They may be neutral evil but I will be watching them
Now on to the nuts an bolts
All characters will be based loosely on the 2nd edition D&D that I learned to play from the age of ten because my uncle said after that the game became a monetary crawl by WOTC and complicated. (Also because I own a lot more of that system's books lol)
All characters will be considered to have 10 levels of experience and that means total levels so if you want to be multi classed then you'll divide.
I don't expect complete character sheets with Stats, THACOs an ACs but I will calculate such on my own an fit you character's actions and successes by such. Don't look so worried you're all the Hero's of this story, your strength legend, your skills above reproach and the people whom the minstrels will sing ballads of long after you've turned to dust or ash.

NAME :
RACE :
AGE :
SEX :
ALIGNMENT :
CLASS :
WEAPONS :
ARMOR :
MAGIC ITEMS :
SPELL LIST :
(Multi Level division shown on Class as Mage5/Ranger5)
Now briefly limits Magic Weapons, Armor, an Items
Weapons = 2 /+3 divided among both or contained in 1
Armor = 2 (can be rings or robes) /+3 divided among both or contained in 1
Magic Items = 3 /if protective +2 limit and any must be approved by me
Okay that about covers that now on to plot
I see this as a joint effort but will be adding the lion's share in support and acting as Benevolent Dictator on content
You can make up to three characters but the must be members of separate adventuring parties
Now for my last word
If you aren't familiar with any of the above or I've managed to confuse you send me a PM
