Looks like you got 8, 11, 11, 8, 16 and 12. That's not too bad. You also get a +1 to one score and a -1 to another, of your choice. Or you can pass on that like Breila did. This is regardless of race played.
By the way, for those who didn't see it, Chris has formally declined to join us.
Also, I've decided to run Doom of Daggerdale for the new folks. Nuke and Breila, you might remember someone (NoTrammeling) tried to run that at Planet once, but he vanished very early on. I remember you were both in it (Breila was a human cleric of Lanthadar and I think Nuke was a human transmuter). If you want to join it, I'll let you transfer your old characters. Or just roll up new ones, whichever. Might give you something to do while I work on Octhania. Spyguy Midknightdreary, you're welcome to join, as well, if you so wish.

You don't need to run it on my account. I have plenty of games going on. I was just trying to get some new blood. That being said, if you end up doing it and need some players, I will participate. I was trying to get some Unseen blood over here as well, I've played with GreywolfVT for a few years, a good old school gamer.

It seems like a good way to kill two birds with one stone. It would give you, Breila and Midknight something to do while I work on Octhania and give GreyWolf a game to play in while I continue working on the site.

Alright, I just read the threads, I'll jump on over. Might be a few days before I get it done, but I just might roll tonight, just for inspiration.

Okay, you've been added to the group.
Does this mean you intend to roll up a new character instead of transferring Timmy Leary over?

LOL, I forgot about that one, just read the thread!
I will roll new. I find it hard to jump back into a personality I created years ago.

I've been pretty busy with getting Doom of Daggerdale set up, but I have been working on this game in my downtime. I'll be adding more information to the Places and People page I just set up. For now, I can tell you that the starting ship will be a war galley captained by an elf named Julak Tyris.

Not sure Midknightdreary is ever coming back...he seems to have vanished off the planet.
In any case, I created some more officers for the Tiaru. I might do a few more later.

I added Bishgada to the group. I also added a few more officers to the Tiaru. I'll flesh them out and then start working on the first adventure and whatever materials I'll need for it (maps, towns, encounters, etc.).

Work progresses. I have a basic outline for the first quest.
Has anyone made any progress in their characters yet? Last I heard, Breila wanted to be an elven Storm Sorcerer. Not sure about Nuke or BishGada. And I think we lost Spyguy.

Okay then! Guess I'll just keep working on this...and will re-recruit later, if necessary.

Sorry, I missed that post. I haven't done anything, kinda waiting to determine what class we need to fill a void.

So a couple of things:
First, Heather has decided to join us. I've added her to the group and she'll post her character later on.
Second, I've decided to use a new rolling method for this game. This is Method VI. I've never really tested it before, so this game will sort of serve as a testing ground for it. Heather has already made her new character with it.
Nuke, Breila and Midnight have already rolled using the old system. If you're happy with what you have, you can keep it. If you want to reroll using the new method, you can do that.
It's basically a point buy system. Here is how it works. Your ability scores start at 8, like this:
STR 8 DEX 8 CON 8 INT 8 WIS 8 CHA 8
Now you roll 7d6. This will be your 'pool' of points. You can add those points to your ability scores as you like, but no score may be raised higher than 18. This gives the player far more choice in building the character they want.
2q1RnLab7d6
So I got 20 points. Now let's say I want to play a swashbuckler type, a fighter.
STR 8+8 = 16 DEX 8+5 = 13 CON 8 INT 8+2 = 10 WIS 8 CHA 8+7 = 15
It's not perfect, but it's what I want. Someone who is charming, clever and can hold their own in a fight and who can qualify for the kit I want. And as a bonus, he is strong enough to get an XP bonus.
And that's how it works in a nutshell. It doesn't guarantee powerful characters, but it does pretty much ensure that you get to play what you want, whatever that is. 7d6
