Place for running on about shit that is beyond the scope of your character.

I Pledge the Following as your DM:

I will not have each of you create your characters and then immediately take everything away from then. This campaign does not start out with imprisonment, amnesia, stolen items and equipment, or kidnapping. These seem to be heavily repeated themes in modules, adventure paths, and homebrew games of late.

The premise of the campaign will however hinge on the characters' acceptance of an invitation to participate in the events to come.
For reference, much of the concept and theme of this campaign is influenced by the Eternal Champion cycle by Micheal Moorcock and he has several instances in his books where difference aspects of the Champion join together for a common purpose. IE: The Four Who Are One and the Sailors on the Seas of Fate. Essentially the PCs in this campaign are erstwhile aspects of the Eternal Champion or potentially so for different planes of the Multiverse. There are fifteen planes of Man in the Multiverse that we can draw from.

The use of the number Eight in this instance is also an homage to the very first D&D campaign ever noted run by Gary Gygax called The Citadel of Eight and later the Circle of Eight. Their goal was to maintain balance between Good and Evil, Law and Chaos. Sound familiar?

It is from this campaign we got Mordenkainen, Bigby, Robilar, Riggby, Yrag, Tenser, Serten, Otis and later Bucknard, Drawmij, Leomund, Nystul, Otto, and Rary.

Seems we've already had our first casualty. Mnrtoler joined, took one look at the content, and quickly bowed out.

If anyone knows of players who may want to get in on this, please let me know. I have three empty chairs now.

Welcome everyone!!!

Equinox has been working hard behind the scenes putting this together for a while now with a couple of us helping out with technical bits and permissions checking. The changes and additions to the standard 5e D&D has undergone a couple rounds of testing in the character building stage so far.

I thing I noted right off was with adding the summoning and binding rules, altering attunement, and creating an alignment shift is that you have to balance out where you put your stat points or you will find your character at a disadvantage in this game. Stat dumping is not recommended.

For those who have yet to discover, the subforum above Sanctuaria Intima contains private threads for each player as I add them into the campaign.

Welcome!

Welcome, everyone! I can second Rage's comments above. There's been a fair amount of work that's gone into this behind the scenes and I'm really excited to see everything play out.

Beyond that, I have played in several Equinox games in the past and he's a phenomenal GM. This is destined to be a really fun experience!

@Miss_Sadie,

Welcome!

Give me a minute to set up your private threads.

Thank you! This game sounds super interesting :)

...and a belated hello to everyone!

Not unexpected, as he told me when he joined that it was likely that sometime soon he would need to bow out due to his growing workload, but grifter730 has left the game. I am taking his notes and finishing the character. Unless we can get a last player to fill that spot, I will play Killian as an NPC.

@kinajardine,

Welcome!

Glad you could join us in the aftermath of the big storm. I have private threads already set up for you.

Update:

While most players are finishing up their characters, I am working to behind the scenes updating NPC profiles, tweaking character status bars readying for combat encounters, putting together first encounter maps, and constructing the enemy.

I should be ready to go in a couple days. That should give almost everyone time to add last minute details to your characters and entourages. Initial encounters will involve an individual PC and their respective cohorts only.

Attention - I am hereby awarding the following:

An extra Inspiration point to AutomAtomic for the creation of an original piece of art depicting their character, Leh'veia.

An extra Inspiration point to RageRed for her character, Tajuri's, flawless defeat of her guardian monster in record time, with spell and a critical hit to follow it up.

I have already added these to your character sheets.
