Welcome, brave adventurers, to the Dungeon of Infinity-ness! What'd you mean, that's not a word? Shut up! Nobody asked you! Yeah, 'm drunk, how'd ya know?

Anyways, Introductions! I'm a god. 'M name's.. er... Well, I'm a little to drunk to remember it. Call m' Sile. God of what? I know booze has somethin' ta do with it. All I know is that I made this dungeon that I *think* goes on forever, but I want you to figure that out. I'll be sendin' 5 of you in, and if, or rather, when, one of you dies, on the next floor you'll find another meatsack. About every, what, ten floors you should see a shopkeeper, but that ain't a certain number. 'Course, there ARE some other people in there, like peaceful widdle towns of dwarves to ransack and burn. Now, get on with it and run down that staircase 'fore I sober up and justly decide to smite you all with the worl's worst hangover!

Spoiler: Character Creation (click to show/hide)

Every character has the six classic stats; Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma. As you may be able to guess, I am doing this off of a somewhat simplified D&D system. The uses of each stat are as follows:

Strength (Str): How hard the character hits. Used for things like damage, breaking down doors, and trying to snap something in half.
Constitution (Con): How tough a character is. Used for things like health, staying conscious in a cloud of noxious gas, and not dying from a fang full of black mamba venom.
Dexterity (Dex): How nimble a character is. Used for things like hitting at a range, balancing on a narrow beam, or disabling a trap.
Intelligence (Int): How good the character is at learning and applying information. Used for things like a wizard's spell casting or remembering useful bits of information.
Wisdom (Wis): How well the character observes the world. Used for things like cleric spell casting, spotting monsters, or searching for traps.
Charisma (Cha): How charming the character is. Used for things like getting discounts from shopkeepers, paladin spell casting, and bluffing someone.

Each character starts at ten in each stat, which is the average, giving no penalty or bonus. You can allocate 5 points as you like. Then, you choose a race.

Dwarf: Hearty and strong warrior of the underground. +1 con, -1 cha
Elf: Light and quick casters and rangers. +1 dex, -1 con
Gnome: Short and smart casters. +1 int, -1 str
Human: Adaptable and versatile. No bonus or penalty to stats.

Once you have chosen your race, you choose your class.

Barbarian: A warrior that uses his rage to his advantage. Has +2 to hit in melee and can enter one for five turns to get +1 to str, con, and dex, but -1 to int, cha, and wis. Suffers -1 to all rolls and cannot rage again for ten turns after the rage ends. Has a base HP of 12.

Paladin: A warrior that uses the divine power of his god. Has +1 to hit in melee and can cast three weak spells per floor (Made by player, I will veto any spell I deem too powerful). Has a base HP of 10.

Priest: A devotee of a god.He can call upon his god for a minor favor and can cast five weak spells and one slightly stronger spell per floor (Made by player, I will veto any spell I deem too powerful). Has a base HP of 8.

Ranger: An archer who fights at range. Has +2 to hit at range. Has a base AC of 8.

Warrior: A warrior is honed in the discipline of battle. Has +2 to hit in melee, and can specialize in a weapon type to get +1 with it, but -1 with all others. Has a base AC of 10.

Wizard: A arcane fighter who uses magical might to slay foes. He can use scrolls and can cast 5 weak spells and 1 slightly stronger spell per floor (Made by player, I will veto any spell I deem too powerful). Has a base HP of 6.

Finally, you choose your alignment. There are 2 scales Lawful versus Chaotic, and Good versus Evil. You choose one disposition from both scales. Lawful characters follow the rules, and chaotic characters break them. Good characters do what is morally right, and evil characters do what is morally wrong. Both scales have a neutral option, which is either undecided or believes in a balance between the two. You can choose opposite dispositions on the two scales, like a Lawful Evil character or a Chaotic good character.

A few miscellaneous notes: Upon death, a new character will join the party on the next floor. The new character will be at the level of the lowest-level character in the party. The dead player cannot join on the next floor, but can join on the floor after that. The player that gets a killing blow on a monster gets one experience. 25 experience is needed to level up at the first level, and increases by 25 each level (50 at level 2, 75 at level 3, 100 at level 4...). Boss monsters give more experience.

Bio :

[flame99]

Middle of the road. Not as good as a warrior, but stronger than a wizard. Or do you mean paladin, since the priest is on par with the wizard? If so, he is better than a priest but still not quite as good as a warrior.

EDIT: KJ, you need to choose an alignment on law vs. chaos, since you get both. I put you down as neutral good, but feel free to send me a PM if you decide against that. Also, I'm now fixing the lack of each classes base HP, my bad.

HP: [decided by class base and constitution bonus/penalty]

Fortify Self, Lesser (Weak, Reinforce ones own body with sand to gain a few points of temporary HP)
Conjure Sandstorm (Stronger, an area of effect spell that may induce blindness)

Character Bio: Ismiral was the third of seven sibblings born to a pair of elite archers, and found growing up that all her brothers and sisters had far more grace and finesse with the bow than she. In order to make herself stand out from her family, she snuck away from home and moved into a temple to study religion and divine casting.

At age thirteen she was tempted away from the traditional elven gods and began to worship Eegipt, the harsh and wicked god who lords over the deserts and wastelands. Although she has yet to truly give into her god's evil, Ismiral has since become a selfish and uncaring woman who usually only looks after her own needs.

[Alexandria]

She and I did mean priest, I'm going for a healer character and the spell limit raised the question of what I'd do once they were used up.

I'll make up my sheet now.

[flame99]

Ok, the health for kj's and GWG's characters is 8 and 5 respectively. Sorry guys!

[GreatWyrmGold]

I take it this is kinda like the d20 system?

[Alexandria]

All done except bio, can you check my spells are ok please and how does const work? Each point is +1 hp or what?

[flame99]

It is based off of the D20 system.

Also, your spells are fine Alexandria, but the spell Chaotic Totem is too vague. Perhaps you can add what it does to boost your allies?Also, your HP would be 8. To all future posters, you simply look under the classes, find the base HP, and then add +1 for every point your constitution is above 10 or subtract it by every point it is below 10.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Also, your spells are fine Alexandria, but the spell Chaotic Totem is too vague. Perhaps you can add what it does to boost your allies?

How about a random buff?

[Alexandria]

I changed one spell to darkness totem but it boosts agility and strength.

Chaotic is vague on purpose, the blessing are chosen at the time of casting to fit the chaos thing, so it's not the same every time. It produces 3 auras at once that are stronger then those of darkness.
I'll let you know in advance what 3 so you can veto them if you dislike them, I'm using a d10 to roll on a set list of buffs to decide what 3. So we could get 3 that are perfect, or we could end up with fire resistance, while fighting a water elemental. It's all down to how much luck loves or hates me at the time.

[flame99]

That is awesome. I really like how you incorporated the nature of chaos into the spell.

[Weirdsound]

Sheet done.
