D&D 5e: The Tyranny of Dragons. OOC Thread. [Ended]
« on: January 25, 2015, 02:32:03 pm »

It's dead, Jim. Thanks for all the fun times.

IC Thread.

Quote from: WOTC
Disclaimer: The following adventure contains chromatic dragons. Wizards of the Coast cannot be held liable for characters who are incinerated, dissolved, frozen, poisoned, or electrocuted.

DM's preface:
Back before 5e was released, I thought that I would be able to get my friends to play a pre-made campaign and make it easier on myself. I did not remember what sort of players my friends were. Anyway, I have Hoard of the Dragon Queen and The Rise of Tiamat, and would like to get some enjoyment out of my poor purchasing habits.

Quote from: Setting info
Tyranny of Dragons is set in the Forgotten Realms on Faerûn's western shore-the Sword Coast. A thin strip of civilization stretches down this coast, where widely spaced cities are arranged like beads on a string. A combination of roads and wagon tracks loosely connect the cities that stretch from Luskan in the north to Calimport in the south, passing through Neverwinter, Waterdeep, Baldur's Gate, and other great ports along the way. The bulk of this adventure takes place on the stretch between Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter.
No previous experience with Forgotten Realms is required. I don't have any.

So you'd like to play?
Now to the nitty gritty.
I will be accepting 4 players. This is not a first come, first serve game; I will be selecting the four best/most interesting characters on February 1st, so have them done by then.
Please use Mythweavers for your sheets; there's a 5e sheet in their Sheets (Alpha) section.
We will be starting at first level.
I have the PHB, so if you have access to it, you can use any class or race from it. I will not be reprinting PHB classes and races here. If you do not have access to the PHB, WOTC has made four classes and races available for free on their website, here. The .pdf includes everything you need to make a character.
For abilities, roll 4d6, drop the lowest. I'd like some form of proof for your rolls, a screenshot will be just fine.
Two setting specific background features are available: Cult of the Dragon Infiltrator and Dragon Scholar. They are abbreviated.
You should know that I will not be making battle maps for this game, as I want to improve on my description skills. Well that went out the window.

Players:
FelixSparks: Arwen Dunwood, the Human Fighter.
Dwarmin: Johanna Stonesthrow, the Dwarven Wizard.
TheBiggerFish: Adrik Ungart, the Half-Elf Sorcerer.
Twinwolf: Cora Lightburrow, the "Halfling" Rogue.

Wait list:
Dozebôm Lolumzalìs: Sir Fruitclutter Woodward, the [I can only assume] Dwarven Druid.
Andres: Sir I Can't Think Of A Joke.
Tawa: Sir I Can't Think Of A Joke's Brother.
Sentient Bowtie: Sir Vulture, the Aarakocra Druid.

Dropped Out:
GiglameshDespair: Sweetpea, the Wood Elf Rogue.
Pencil_Art: Aesalam Dawnwhisperer, the Wood Elf Rogue.
Tawarochir: Brother Cian, the High Elf Warlock.
Culise: Mirella Bergerie, the Human Cleric.
:(

I got a question about setting, and realized I forgot to put that in the OP. Fixed now.

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to sit down and make a sheet for this any time soon. Apologies.

Well, we have a week or so, right? Should be plenty of time.

You could probably reroll those stats too, I don't think anyone would care...

The stats aren't the issue. The first week back at uni combined with a lab report and an uncooporative lab partner is :P
