Much better (though Europe and Africa share the same timezones, I doubt there'll be anyone from the latter). All the poll lacks now is an option 'I'm fine with either PBP or Maptools'.

Just check both if that's the case.

[Darvi]

Or neither. Because, seriously, the net difference's the same.

[germaina]

If you still have room, I'd be more than willing.  Depending on what we have, I would determine what I play.  I'll not add to the poll until you say you have room for me.

[Darvi]

We don't even know when we're going to play, much less how much room we have.

[tryrar]

Ok, so it's trending to play-by-post so far. If this continues, then I'm definitely gonna GM(after all, how can I get better at Gming if I don't GM?). Anyways, That being the case, I'd say 4-6 players, just about anything is allowed(though if you try to use Book of Vile Darkness/Exalted deeds, I will have to smack you. With Purple lightning), though homebrew classes will need me to look at them first. And as stated, we'll be starting at 8th level, standard wealth rules, and standard ability rolls(though if you're unhappy with your roll and can't reroll, you can use 32 point buy)

Coincidentally, I'm gonna nod out of this because I just started playing 1st level D&D in the other play by post that began today. I don't think it's a good idea for a total newbie to jump right into 8th level.

Alright, do you want me to post my character summary?

[Darvi]

Hmmm. Gotta decide now then. I'm torn between a warblade or a beguiler. Or maybe a duskblade or factotum.

[tryrar]

Yes, go ahead and post character summaries/sheets, since the first 4-6 with COMPLETED sheets will be accepted

[Darvi]

*bleep*

[Rolepgeek]

My question is...will this be an outside or an inside campaign? I like scouts.

More about Sir John:
Sir John was the most extreme of the Crusaders of the Sun. He was cast out for being "too lawful good" and has gone off adventuring to cleanse the world of evil with his trusty silver warhammer. (Let me know if I got anything wrong here, I don't actually have much playing experience.) He is lefthanded.

Sheet spoilered for convenience.

Homebrew is fine if reviewed?

I've wanted to play this class ever since laying eyes on it.

Basically, it's a class whose features are based on becoming something...inhuman(oid).

[Darvi]

Same question here.
