Saving Sandiron: DnD 5eBasic: OOC and Signups thread
« on: January 02, 2015, 11:55:59 pm »

Times are peaceful. The kingdom of Sandiron exists in a era of unprecedented prosperity. But there are countries that would love to take that prosperity for their own.

The Era of Peace is coming to an end. Armies are stockpiling weapons, merchants are tightening purse strings, and monsters stir under the desert sands.

And to top it all off, a new wind is blowing, etching away the desert on which Sandiron is built.

You four were just citizens of Sandiron, but you each have felt a calling. You have all gathered at an oasis on the northern boarder of Sandiron; you can see the edge of the desert from here, where once in recent memory it extended all the way to the horizon.

Many other groups are here, too. There is a dwarven man on a pedstal speaking out to all the groups, any who would listen to his tale of a coming doom... and that's why you're here.




Welcome to my Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition game. This is my first time playing 5th edition.

The basic rules can be found on the WotC website, Here. This includes four classes and four races, and all the rules themselves; Your GM does not have the books with the remaining classes and races, yet.

Play will begin at first level. Your ability will be determined by rolling and posting proof of the roll ("output {1,2,3}@4d6" on AnyDice.com, select roller, put 6, take a screenshot; or 6 rolls of "4d6.takeHighest(3)" on invisiblecastle.com/roller/).

As only one archetype per class is included in the basic rules, you'll have to go with that one, unless you want the GM to homebrew you an archetype (But please check out the potential Backgrounds before you ask). Feats are an optional rule in 5th edition and not included in the basic rules; as such we will not be playing with feats :(.

I will be accepting the four best characters submitted, so it's not first come first served. Mythweavers does not have a sheet for 5th edition yet, so please put your sheet in your post, formatted how you like. has a 5th edition sheet in their Alphas section.

Looks cool. Already am involved in two other games though. Guess I'm going to have to make way for three! Where can you find a character sheet?

Ohhhhhh, YES. I think I'll be playing a halfling dual wielding fighter I had built earlier. With rerolls, of course.

Where can you find a character sheet?
Mythweavers actually does have a character sheet, but it's in their Alpha page instead of their normal page: myth-weavers.com/sheets

Dying of pure unbridled hatred, actually.

I don't mind newbies to 5th edition, as this is also my first time with this edition. If you have experience with previous versions or not, well it doesn't matter to me.

My Name Is Immaterial: Thank you for that information. Updating OP in a moment.

Pencil_Art: Your character sheet won't load for me. Did you accidently cut off a number on the end?

Well, my sheet is looking about done now.

Correct me if I missed any numbers...or got them blatantly wrong. :P

I don't seem to have. I think you need to have logged in to a Myth Weavers account before it will load.

Check your link? It links to an empty white page.

Well I have no idea. Might just take snapshots. It is the correct link. May need to be logged in.

Are you sure you didn't accidentally make it private, i.e, we can't view it?
