Let's Play: The Temple of Elemental EvilCh.0: Reboot!Gather round, internet, it's time to play some good old-fashioned Advanced Dungeons and Dragons! Well, sorta old-fashioned, at least. We'll be running the classic Gary Gygax adventure The Temple of Elemental Evil, recreated in computer form by Atari and Troika Games. I'll be your DM for the evening, while you all will be my
puppets adventuring party!
Rules and Participation:1. I'm just the DM here. Players will be rolling up characters for the party, and choosing the direction we move the story in.
2. When we're at a crossroad, feel free to post in-character, and figure out what you guys want to do next.
3. This is an Ironman run, meaning there will be no savescumming, and character death is permanent. Sorry in advance! :3
4. Each player gets 1 character at a time, and only 6 can fit in the party. If your character dies, feel free to add a new one to the queue.
5. This is liable to be more than a bit silly. Have fun with it!
Party Alignment, and Character Creation:Before we can start, you guys will first need to decide on a Party Alignment, and roll up some Character Sheets. The party's alignment influences the plot, and determines the party's choices in the story. Also, each character in the party can only be 1 step removed from the Party Alignment, or they won't be allowed to join. Choose wisely, as this will affect much of the game!
As for character sheets, I'll need a name, a race, a class (or 2 if multiclassing), their skills and specialties, and your characters 2 best and 2 worst attributes (among: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma). Give me a few personality traits, quirks, or any other descriptors you want to add too, since that lets me know how to build their skills and feats, and how you want them to be played.
