HURFQUEST

How's about a DF-themed play-by-post D&D game?

4e, 1st level, standard everything. I have the books, so whatever you want to play, just run the char by me.
Dorfs preferred; other races be prepared to face the racism of my murderous lava-filled forts.

Craft system: you get a single craft skill as a bonus trained skill. pick from the list of DF skills (leaving out anything covered by the game already, e.g. heal, diplomacy, combat, etc.) Related skills can be used at a penalty. (e.g. armorsmiths can make weapons or tools at -2)

Appropriately Dorfy actions will result in random bonuses from Armok the DM

Count me in, by Armok! Given the option, I'd run Paladin, but I'm flexible given the choices of the rest of the party.

And, if nobody else wants it, I'd take Mechanic as a craft skill; again, I'm not married to it so whoever wants can cut in. As of this writing, I am awfully tempted by the thought of rolling a Legendary Cheese Maker...

Mind, I'm rather new to D and D, but I'd love to try this. I'd go with a barbarian dwarf bone carver.

Just wondering though, how frequently do you expect the posts to be made?

...oh god don't let him be an engineer. He's managed to xanatos roulette all of my games IRL lol.

Heh, s'ok. I dont intend for this to be all that serious, just fun. And I'm not a dick about the rules, so.  You know how to make a char?

Dunno how often we'll all post. I have night classes and am unemployed, so I'm good pretty much whenever.

Incidentally, how do you plan to run the setting? Making one up, or generating a world in DF and exporting Legends, or what? Important for deities and backgrounds and such

[Criptfeind]

Boo at 4E.

But if this is play by post I might as well join.

Here is a almost finished wizard.

[Fortis]

I know enough to be able to knock out a decent starter. How did you want to do the ability scores? Pointbuy or something?

Aye, the default point buy, or a set from the array in the PHB.

Yeah, probably. I need a map editor to get exactly what i want, but hell, i can just use PAINT. or actualy MAKE it in a fort.

I suggest map tool.

Meh. I've played run both systems. 4e is simpler, and works better via text.

Pfft. If I'm running a DF-themed D&D, then I'm def. using DF to gen dungeons.  I can certainly use maptools to run it tho.  good prog.

I dunno much about DandD (Ctuhulu FTW) but I'd love to join if you accept newbies. I started creating a character sheet. What did I do wrong?

[Criptfeind]

Race features, feats, class features, Conditional Modifiers, and you say you have 0Exp (which is right) but you need 5500 to next level (wrong) and that you are level four (wrong)

[Sheb]

Mmmmh. You got a tutorial somewhere?

[Criptfeind]

Not that I know of. Do you have the books?
