Alright, so. Here's the thing.

Remember this?

3) I will likely rename everything and completely retcon the whole adventurers-working-for-lord thing in favor of traditional D&D adventurer stuff, the latter because this is (as described above) a repetitive quest dispenser; the former because the current RNG-stew setting feels like it came out of a machine. Wait, actually, it did. I used DF to generate it.

I've done more than that. There's a completely different world now, because RNGland sucked. And there's a coherent plot that isn't a string of loosely connected dungeon crawls.

There's one thing I can't decide, though--do you guys want free XP and cash for Level 2 while I retcon everything, or do you want to trudge through more meaningless fights for it? I'd assume the former, but just in case...

[My Name is Immaterial]

If you can explain how we got money and XP despite having failed the mission, 1, please.

[Tawa]

Eheheheh. The mission was to kill the bandits' leader, if you remember correctly.

I also don't want to have to deal with the terrible setting and overly cramped dungeon anymore.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Did we do that? I thought he ran away.

[Tawa]

Gaun blew his head off while he was running away.

[Flying Dice]

Yep. That's twice now. Inside her head she's going all "BOOM HEADSHOT!"

But yeah, we iced the leader and got out, so I'm in favor of being level 2 without random grind.

[Nerjin]

That would be nice. Being something other than straight fighter would likely be helpful. For example: Levelling in Warblade.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I can't wait to get my hands on a first level spell or two. Because my BAB is bad, and Daze is only so effective. Should have gone Cleric. This party could really use some healing.

[Tawa]

You couldn't have as per ancient houserules.

-Tier 1 classes are banned unless otherwise noted. Meaning no wizards. Also meaning that the only wizards are basically old guys locked up in towers who can't be bothered to come out into the world and are only good if you need a 9th level spell cast or something.
-Tier 2 classes are only available under the condition that you sacrifice a single point modifier in a skill of your choice. So sorcerers and psions are weaker in one skill of their choice, likely Strength.
-Clerics are OK, but we are using the Spontaneous Divine Casters variant from Unearthed Arcana for them and the Bard's spells per day table.
-Druids are cool if you use the Bard's spells per day table. They don't have to use the Spontaneous Casters rule.

I was nuts about "fixing" 3.5 back in the day.

...Man. I should update those during the intermission.

[Tawa]

Right. Refluffing is almost done, and the new map is made. Got rid of my wrath-of-the-RNG section in the OP and made the copypasta full copypasta instead of selective copypasta.

Almost there.

[Flying Dice]

Good to hear.

[Tawa]

It's back and better than ever.

Please fix any backstories that involve now-nonexistant locations. If anybody asks, the quest you did before happened, but none of you remember why you went on it in the first place.

The official explanation as to why all of you know each other is that after that thing you don't remember why you did, you decided (for personal reasons) the thrill of adventure was too good to give up and decided to continue adventuring.

Additionally, even though the setting seems kind of generic, I assure you that there is a plot this time and not anything like the RNG-soup that had happened before.

Once you all are ready, PART II will begin.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I'm ready.

[Flying Dice]

Ready.
