Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I dunno... I will have to mull it over.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I'm not wrenching the works, am I? Or was this something you were hoping for, Fyron?

What are the actual classes running at this point, and is there further background to the campaign? I'm just trying to get some bearings.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Most of our original party was quite new to D&D. I only played a rogue because the starting lineup had no thieving skills at all. You can have it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

We have: Lae'nial, an elven wizard; Shaorin, a psion of some forgotten race; Rasorow, a ranger/cleric (I think...) that is either human or half-elven; Draknor, an ever-drunk dwarven fighter; another ranger of some name that I forgot (he was Randall's PC before he took over as DM); and my elven rogue, Sulimo Mandrallorn. Oh, and there is that lonely human paladin Homus that keeps following us everywhere... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Oh and am I starting level 1 and playing catch-up, or do I get some bonus points so I don't die taking my first step? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Your character can start at the same level as everyone else, which is 5th.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Okay great. I'll put in the feats and skills, some starting equipment and you and I can iron out the rest of the details on chat.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Rasorow is a Half-elven Ranger/Cleric and Wulf was Randallw's PC before he took up the burden of DM.....

Rasorow

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Okay, well then welcome Syndra the female half elven Rogue to the mix. I'm writing down stats and everything. She'll be completely done over the weekend. I'll finish up the details with Randall in the next day or two, and I'll be ready to go. I'll post my work schedule as soon as I have it. As it stands I've got Tuesday and Friday night off for sure.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Just a question from one who's interested, but not totally versed in RPGs. Why does it seem that player characters are always half-elven, instead of full-elven? Is there something about being full elf that makes a player character limited?

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Now that you mention it, it seems this group is half-elf top-heavy. However, I've played RPG's for years and have always been human or halfling, so for me it's a change http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

This game has a huge elf/human storyline so being a combination of the two is a great way to create stories and conflict.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Not really, no. They have different strengths and weaknesses than full elves. Just a different option. I personally don't see much point in being a half-elf. They are quite similar to humans in D&D, so might as well just be a human...

Well we were at 2 elves and 1 half-breed before, but with Sulimo disappearing and your half-elf arriving, it does indeed tip the balance. I'll just have to make something wacky to make it better. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/stupid.gif

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Go with a non-standard race. We're at level five, there's room. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

be a halfling bard that sings half elven epics exclusively.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

No, by non-standard race I mean something from one of the Monster Manuals.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Okay then. Make a Wemic that dances to Elven battle songs. AND sings halfling epics in Half-Elven.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Consider it a challenge, Fyron. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I'm just checking that we are playing the usual time. What is it, 6pm Atlantic time on thursday?. Sorry I'm not sure what the time is in America, just here.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

6 pm Atlantic meaning Eastern time right? So 3pm for me on the west coast?

My character is completed, Randall, just so you know. So I'm set to go.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

No, 6 PM PST.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Hey Rudy, how would you feel about playing in two games? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/thr...art=1&vc=1

Have done 15 sessions so far and have three players.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Oh right, it's the players on the Atlantic coast that are 3 hrs behind.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Three hours ahead you mean. You're about 16 hours ahead of us here in California, right, Randall? You're on approximately the same time as Japan, no? So 6 PM on the Atlantic coast is 3 PM on the Pacific. So are we playing at 3PM or 6PM Fyron? You live "up the street" from me.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Playing time is Thursday, Feb. 10 at 6 PM PST.

How far "down the street" are you Rudy?

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Smoggy, smutty, image infested Hollywood, baby! Step off ye of lesser image and international station. I live in the entertainment capital of the world! muahahahah...

So for those of you who've ever been to Hollywood, the real actual Hollywood you know it's a dung pile. So I'll put and end to my faux bragging. In fact I'll just go fart. That's what the homeless guy on Selma Avenue does.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Yeah... Hollywood has one fancy street, and that is all... Totally hype. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Frankly my favorite street in town is Melrose Avenue. Lots of great shops and the women are heavenly. Lala's is a great Argentine restaurant.

Although Boardner's is the best dive in town. A little expensive tho.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I'm just bumping to verify we're playing today at 6 PM PST?

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

yes, in an hour and 45 minutes.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Alright great. My template is all filled in except for inventory which I'm too lazy to input right now. Frankly I took very little, and don't know how much gold I have at this point. Everything cost about 200 GP, so if that's a problem let me know.

Did we come to a decision as to why I'm there at the monastery?

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I might be a little late; I'm going out to get shot...

...With a needle. Allergy injection.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Unacceptable, Narf. Un-friggin-acceptable.

I can't be wasting my time on a game where people care about their allergies. Randallw, I'm thinking a bolt from the Gods will suffice.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I was just finishing off the map in case we got that far. Rudy, I would say your character is taking sanctuary in the monastery. She has been there for awhile. As for Narf, perhaps he has a cold from all the snow and ice.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Now...Who's holding up the game while he finishes making his character?

People in glass houses...

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Hey man, Syndra's complete. Just not finished.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Having connection problems; can't see the room. Going to try restarting.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Was it something I said?

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Now I can't see the game...

You only mildly annoyed me. To you, allergies might be a minor thing. To me, it's what's kept me largely house-bound, rathet like a jailer that makes me sneeze my head off for a day or three if I try to have fun.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

It's up now.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Sadly, my flinging poo did not go over well with all parties.

Bathroom humor is an acquired taste, I guess.

I like the setting a lot, however. Diverse group. Am I the only one who is native to the world?

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Lae'nial and Rasorow (If he shows up) are the only party membes left from the other world.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I am sorry- I feel asleep waiting for game time. I think I will have to withdraw. I cannot do this time frame and if I rememeber correctly others cannot do earlier.

Rasorow

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Don't worry Rasorow, RL is more important. anyhow, seeing as Narf will be absent this week for entirely understandable reasons, will we bother to organise a session?.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I'd like a reply. We will only have 3 characters.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I'm available.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I might be a little late, but I'm not sure.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I can go either way. It is up to you guys.

Should we move to the weekend? It would allow Rasorow to continue playing...

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Rasorow could do Sundays or Saturday Afternoons....

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

IIRC, we discussed this in a session recently, I can't do Saturdays, and narf can't do Sunday.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

I'm available any night, but next week is dodgy for me because of work. I don't know my schedule yet, and won't know for sure until Saturday. But once this job is completed, my nights are free again.

Re: Online D&D Gaming
 

Do we have a green light or are we waiting until another day?
