Current I'm about to be banished for the good of the realm again. Where is the trust in this world, I ask you?

I'm sorry, you've reached his personal secretary, Department of Shrubbery, Floor 64, Desk 1024. How can we help you today?

Or buy a van or a used rental truck. Something nobody would look twice at. You can put in a rack for the rope, duct tape, plastic sheeting, shovels....

Never trust a car salesman - especially a used car salesman. Have a buddy park across the street and see how many stuffed body bags you can shove in there. Gotta have room for plastic sheeting, etc.

Neil Gaiman wrote in his Good Omens bio that he likes it when fans send him $50. (He read Terry Pratchett's bio and figured it wouldn't hurt.)

Bio

I am a seven-foot tall minecraft-playing hindu guru drag-queen alien.

Possessor of an Ancient Device™ Model 17. No, I don't know what it does. No, you can't play with it.

Pronouns: It. As in: "What is it? What does it want? Why is it here? Oh my god, it's got my... <insert random body part or object here>"

Likes: World Domination, Writing, Rpg, scifi/fantasy, anime, sketchup 3d models, and anime music videos.

Companions: a host of characters from other games, my personal muse Penny (as in Bad), and the Badger gang - Toothpick, Buttons, Shark, and Mongo. They grew up in the balcony of an old theatre that played a lot of gangster movies. Normally benign, but may invade the OOC forums.

Midnight City

An underground (or possibly tucked away in its own stable pocket dimension) city, location unknown, but accessible from various portals typically found in dungeons or isolated stone circles for those who have a key.

It's a hidden marketplace for items you cannot find anywhere else, and it swarms with all sorts of beings.

There are two rules in this city -

1. No violence. No matter what, everyone in the city is safe from each other, lest they awaken the wraith of the Guardians or their golem minions.
2. Any claims made by the seller of any being, creature or object must be true. Any falsehood (but not omissions) will be fined the first time. Pray you never find out what happens with a repeat offense.
Question: Are we all from the same time period? I.E. the year 2022 of this Earth?

Thank you!



The reincarnation is complete! XD


Okay. Not what I was expecting, but at least I'm not a giant spider or a slime.

A bit more lore for your world, should you choose to accept it. I used to have a gnome priestess that used one as a mobile church, preaching from the rear porch.

Living Wagon

Type: Vehicle (Land) Cost: 100 gp Weight 600 lbs.

A living wagon is long roofed vehicle pulled by a team of horses and is intended for the long term comfort of the traveler, typically used by traveling shows and caravaners. Access to the interior is from a rear porch that has mounted or hinged steps that fold down.

While there's variation in how they're built, the inside is usually furnished with sleeping berths at the front and small stove on the left with a chimney going through the roof, opposite a small bench.

Barrels are mounted outside for water, grain, or flour. A belly box (35gp) can be added underneath for additional storage.

If you have proficiency with a certain kind of vehicle (land or water), you can add your proficiency bonus to any check you make to control that kind of vehicle in difficult circumstances.
@Guardian Angel HarukiOkay, interesting race.

Second roll - roleplayerguild.com/rolls/24572
I rolled and got double 7's. That's lucky, right?

Other than that, Roll a d100 to begin character creation. ^_^


I'm new to the server, not sure how to do dice rolls here. Or should I just roll someplace and give you the number?
@Expendable
Hi! It's so lovely to meet
you Ex! Might I say, I love that
you have Wednesday Addams as your
profile photo. I just started
watching Wednesday on Netflix!
I'm wondering if you're going to
be watching the show? I hope you
get into some lovely plays! Your
reply is greatly appreciated, thank
you so much! Take care now.


Thank you kindly. When I saw the trailer on Netflix, I knew I needed to watch it. There's also various shorts you can find on YouTube with an Adult Wednesday Addams out in the world.
I should say that one can contract with House Cardaires for a Red Rover escort. I'm happy you like my snippet.
Could be fun. Would we be meeting at a particular time and playing on Discord, or posting in the forum?

Would we be posting sheets here, or using another site like Google Docs or Myth-Weavers?

Personally, I lean towards new worlds, as I like a chance to expand the map. As requested, here's some lore for your new world.

Inesas, the Sunken City

Inesas used to be on dry land, until the night of the comet. It filled the night sky, but a jealous and greedy god wanted a piece for himself. However, after breaking off a chunk, it slipped from his fingers and fell on the edge of a mountain lake, causing the land to shake and the edge to collapse, and a great wall of water poured out, wiping out a few villages as the waters raced down to the city itself, flooding it as it flowed through to the sea beyond.

The only land that was spared were the many hills of the city, and those lucky to reach one of them survived the floods.

Rather than abandon the sunken city, the people of Inesas decided under the rule of the Patriarch to rebuild it by sinking pilings around the islands, forming a city that seems to float on the water, linked by bridges and canals. It became a city of traders, be it one of the ships from far away kingdoms tying up to a warehouse or a lowly flatboat poling its way through the canals to make deliveries of goods.

There are many laws, both official and of custom against theft of goods and services. Contracts here are king, it's said. However, murder among the houses is a crime seldom prosecuted, as the great trading houses like to fight among themselves away from the eyes of the Patriarch's Watch.

An unwelcome visitor may disappear into the Patriarch's prison, or fall from a bridge in the dead of night.

After House Cardaires lost half its fleet and one of its heirs to pirates (and some say through the deliberate actions of the other houses), they converted their merchant ships into frigates with red sails and began taking the fight to the pirates under a letter of marque issued by the Patriarch. It's whispered (softly) that Houses Alberac and Rochessec were burned down to a man by Cardaires' Red Rovers when the pirates' path lead back to them.

It's said you can plot against the Patriarch, but only a dead man goes after House Cardaires and their Red Rovers.

Hi, I'm new myself. Call me Ex. I'm hoping to have some fun here, hope to run across you in games.
