Been looking through the races again, and think I might be joining the vampire crew after all. In which case, possibly a paladin. However, haven't totally decided anything yet.

It's cool, you can be whatever you want. If the player composition leans more on vampires, then the plot will lean on vampires more.

Hi all! First of all, thanks to RoAries for letting me join. I'm a fan of the MtG lore and played Standard during the Ixalan era, so I'm pumped to be able to play this game. I'm almost a complete noob to 5E, so I hope that won't be a problem here!

I'll take a look at the existing characters and choose what I'll be playing.

BTW, Squilon mentioned to me that he/she is too busy to join in.

Hello new guys. Please let me know what idea of character you wanted to play as. Don't worry about balance and what not. The game and narrative is able to adapt to whatever composition it gets.

Though do give me a character sheet, even if it's incomplete, atleast by next week, 8th of January. Otherwise I would have to remove you for lack of participation.

Hi all, I'll admit that I'm now making myself a bit too busy, and so considers trying to find another GM to rope in/replace me. Let me know what you think. But I'll make a thread of it first.

Reminder that jesterjeff, archAhazi, IacomustheBadger, and Steven Deeds will be removed if no attempt at submitting a character sheet is made by the 8th.

@RoAries, Where should we let you know about what type of character we would like to play? Should I just create one and submit it? Thanks for the invite! Hope all is well.

Hi everyone, just an FYI:

My family will be out of the country, so I will be unavailable from 1/12/2019 through 1/20/2019.

@A_True_Believer, yeah. You could share your idea in the character creation thread, or as direct message is also fine. But do submit a sheet in time, even if not complete.

Will do ASAP. Thanks.

Sorry, but I'll be slow to post nowadays

Hi, all! Sorry, I was away from GP over the entire holidays because of my workload. Then, as soon as that started to slacken, we had the Taal Volcano eruption. I am prepared to play but I see that RoAries is looking for a replacement? So what's the current status of this game?
Jan 21, 2020 1:07 pm
It is still on going, as I don't want to disappoint you guys by dropping. But I'm thinking of reducing my responsibilities on this site, so I'm looking for someone who would be nice to take over for me.

Okay as stated in the general request thread -- my style is running heroes and in my personal opinion evil characters are not heroic and TNs are often more CN than TN (and on the balance scale CN is an evil alignment) --- I would have no trouble picking this game up otherwise -- but that has to be a decision freely made by the perspective players. Again its just a personal preference and nothing more.

Welcome, DeJoker!

It seems that this is the way things are going, so it's unfortunate it's not your preference. But it's understandable, as normally adventurers are heroic.
However, this game/the previous GM has allowed for the PCs to have greedy or noble motivations, and fit the story around that, so I'll continue with that style.

Okay thanks @RoAries but my question was more poised towards the player actually playing the Evil alignment and somewhat towards the NN one -- as they may be okay with making a slight adjustment to their characters -- but if no I can respect that and I will leave it be

Smiles. Darastrix, also known now as Captain Red, is pirate based and personally greedy besides having taken over a leadership position. One player has taken to be her cohort. Current drive is to acquire mounts by stealing them. Darastrix has been the driving force in the game so far. Darastrix appears to have no respect at all about law or killing people. Although she did appear to have tried to avoid it. So an unified party hasn't appears per say but is forming. What is after the attempts to gain the mounts is up in the air. There are a number of NPC's (general pirates) still with Darastrix and one other PC I believe.

By looks Darastrix is only going to be a party leader per say and not an authority that controls. The NPC's might very well disappear with mounts and ride away. Future hasn't been written.

Okay @GeneCortess am I to assume this is the evil character in the party or the NN? Also LN might not have any regards for Laws made by others depending on what their code is and while they might not pursue killing due to their personal code, they may be just fine with killing when it was needed --- yes playing a pirate does require certain traits but just remember -- the only difference between a pirate captain and normal captain is whose side they are working for or against

I state this because I have worked with other players before to tweak a concept to make it non-evil without changing its base concept too much and depending on the player/character I can probably do it here as well -- just need to know if the player would be willing to make the minor adjustment if not I am okay with that as well -- as I fully understand -- I am just trying to help out if I can

I done my best to give you a description to work with. If that doesn't appeal then it is good choice not to join.
