aww damn, and it looked good too, If you are serious about supernatural things, the kids seem to be able to just keep using them rather than running out, so may I propose using The Codex of Spellshaping It is home-brew, but I have not found it too powerful in the games we have used it in so far

So it seems there are four players by now? I'll hog the "maybe 5"th spot, if it becomes unmaybed.

This is not first come, first served.  I am allowing any number of applications, and choosing the best.

This... does sound like it could get quite interesting. So, besides the grist, what will be included? Well, I guess it will not be that much of a problem to find or create an ability that would represent the Sburb-Class, especially with those only truly coming into play a bit later on. Which is to ask, do we get to choose our class? I would further wager that the the enemies also would be fashioned after our sprites, and should go into the charactersheet by that logic? But that also would enable quite a lot of meta, and might be better decided by the dice.. hmm.

Quote from: Sheet along these lines?
Name: SburbistMcTestchar
Blood: (Troll only) Amber
Strife Deck: Mugkind
Sylladex: Memory Modus
Sprite: Cat-hide
Class: Thief of Doom
Bio: Does Stuff.

Oh wow. Very nice thinking there Bauglir. Albeit also quite complicated in nature. Hmhm.

Here is an interactive character sheet.  Download it and upload a link to screenshots of your saved copy of it for your character.  Put your sylladex modus in the campaign slot (that slot isn't all that important for regular use), and put your strife deck in the class section.  3 1d6 should be used for the stats.

Will work on it later, making a character for another D&D game right now, starting level 8 takes a bit of time to do right, also what classes are allowed for this game? I also tend to prefer the revised 3.5 sheet, although I have yet to find an interactive one

Considering getting in on this, but apparently I'd have to compile pesterchum for it to work on Linux?

Not true. The pesterchum client is written in python, an interpreted language. All you have to do is make sure you have installed python on your computer (It's probable that it came with whatever distro you got, but it's a good idea to check anyway.)

I think I'll get into this as well.

EDIT: Starting level? Stat rolling rules (3d6 instead of 4d6)? Wealth? HP?

Sheet.

Colour me interested! If it's play by post it's actually doable for me, so that's great. I'll put together a sheet and edit this post.

EDIT: I'm not sure I understand how the stat rolling works. Is it roll 3 seperate d6, assign the result of each to a stat of your choice?

EDIT2: Sheety thing.

Roll 3d6 (three six-sided dice), and add the numbers together to get a number between 3 and 18. Do this six times and assign each number to one of the six stats.

Do you mind if we use mythweavers for character sheets? You can view them online without needing screenshots.

And yeah, I'm in on this.

Go ahead and use mythweavers.  In fact, I would recommend it.

Sheet.

Level 1.
3d6 for stats.
Nothing.  Money used in reality is worthless in 'Incipisphere' (game world).
10 times constitution roll for HP.

I'm curious, how does 'bureaucracy' work as a fetch modus?

Umm...so...we don't actually have classes then, right? Just Strife Decks? And we can make a syllabus modus? This is confusing. I have a sinking feeling not understanding this means my character sheet is gonna suck.

You file paperwork to the modus requesting an item, and you receive it several hours later :P.

Don't worry about it too much.  Here's an explanation of the Strife Deck and Fetch Modus

Strife Deck:
title: [Insert_Blank_Weapon]kind
effect: You can only use [Insert_Same_Weapon]

Fetch Modus:
How you get things from your inventory.

As for classes, there is something like them, but you won't be seeing their effects until you reach the top of the echeladder (level 20), and they are more roles that are played by each of the characters, that I will assign, which grant amazing abilities.  I would explain, but...

Spoiler: it's hard to explain. (click to show/hide)

I approve.

13 is the preferred age.

Oh, can you please explain how Dwarfkind will work?
