Hey. Sorry for the delay, the usual suspects of work and family life, I should have the character submitted tonight.
Sep 25, 2023 5:58 pm
Ok I posted all the optional rules, I believe, go take a look and comment on one's you want to use or not. We can also add the little at a time as we learn the system as well.

The waitress looks at your group, Well, most of the adventuring groups formed just like it seems you are doing. An occasional group comes that have been traveling together for a time. The tend to be usually a smaller group but better armed and you can see they have been in a scrap or two. Then you have some like the couple in the corner, they seem to have a different feel to them. The stories that get mostly told here are of those leaving either because they are scared off or have found enough riches to leave the vale. I am sure you can find plenty of information in Outskirt. That is the town that has cropped up in the vale. It is said to be on ancient site, some say town others say castle or even temple of some sort. whatever it is it is a ruin.
i will throw you guys a rumor of a guy who left here in fear. You may have the stomach for it. There is supposed to be an unholy place in the iron forest. It has stones rising into the sky. he said its name is the Riddermound. supposedly a dark knight was chained there by the gods when the world was young. he said the knight was buried alive along with his family, servant but also his riches. This guy claimed to have found it but said he left in fear of his life and refused to say anymore about it.

Ok. This is up to you of how much role-playing there is besides dungeon crawls. I am responding to you but also addressing the whole group so they know how I am approaching things.
I said upfront that I am using the adventure book that came with the game. I also said that the game in the quickstart is part of the campaign. Riddermound is the adventure in the qs and is suggested for the first one in the adventure book. I also asked if anyone has read or played it to let me know and this is the first time anyone has said anything that they had.
Secondly some of the adventures can be handled as dungeon crawl or almost purely role-playing depending on how the party plays them.
Third, the arching plot of the campaign will require role-playing on the party end. I am also adding another subplot which requires role-playing.
So there will be both, how much on one end or the other really depends on you and the other players. My one on one games are almost pure role-playing character development type games. So I am fine running that style game. Since I am new to this game and I like the campaign overall, I am trying to run it near as written but adding some extra interactions as well. Also you between "dungeons" as not all are in a dungeon you will be interacting with other adventure groups and the people of outskirt.
So far we are only in the first inn and not even into the campaign adventure book at all. I want player interaction, I want to see personalities of the character, I want to make this seem like a living breathing world at the same time there will be dungeon crawling for various reasons. Also some players might not want to have tons of personal interactions. So I will gm accordingly, but much of it will depend on how you play the game.
You need to decide if this is a game for you. I am going to estimate probably 50/50 for the average game group on dungeon crawl/ role-playing spectrum. I will not lie as there is dungeon crawling involved in the campaign, the other side is truly dependent on you if the percentage goes up or down.

I must have missed the part of the intro senarie. For that I apologize. We played it with the first kickstarter rules.
I think I'll step out now then. I'll probably craft or find an Dragonbane adventure to run here later this year

Ok, I will remove you from play.
I am asking since posting has been slightly slower than expected. That you tell me you are still interested. I am going to post for replacements for any who leave. The sooner I know how many the better as I want the game to move forward soon.

We will move forward. I am giving other a chance to respond and move things forward. If not I will move it myself.

Sorry for the delay, things are finally calming down a bit for me. Posted in gameplay, ready to go!

Hello, can anyone tell me what kind of characters everyone has made? I will make my choice based on that.
