FKL DnD idea

[Sgt_Shligger]

Because the last two campaigns that actually started never took off. If there are a few members willing, I'd actually like to try my hand at DMing. If people do bite, I'll begin work and study on a campaign setting.

EDIT

Ok, here's the list I've gotten so far. Please PM me if you are seriously interested.

Tact
Nidra
Retni?
Randomness?
Van?

[Tact]

Once again, if we can get it working and there's nothing illegal involved, I'll give it a shot.

Monk, assuming we don't use the Law of Poverty rule. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

I don't know what I want to be if we are.

I swear, we should just make a MUD or something. >_>

[Retniwreven]

I've DMed quite a bit, though mainly on NWN. Spell my name backwards. XD
I highly enjoyed stalking people through areas and swarming them with huge, black spiders. =X

[Tact]

Oh, wow, Ret, I never noticed that. I usually look at names and see if they spell stuff backwards, too.

I guess your name wasn't strange enough to warrant that.

[Sgt_Shligger]

Well, I'd be willing to help the programming on a MUD (at least if it's in C++) but a MUD sounds a little primitive. I could think up a decent system if given enough time but I'm going to wait until at least three people are in on this.

am i the only one that noticed that? i guess im not a good for nothing, worthless pile of shit, now am I?

[Retniwreven]

S'cause it's more or less pronounceable as it is. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

Nicha Senthel was I, bringer of spiders, chaos, chicken soup, and randomly abducting people to my pocket dimension full of chairs and a campfire in a back alley.

[VanHalen]

I say we make our own DnD with the whole vs internet bosses thing(I can totally RP this ;o).

[Randomness]

I'm always up for new games, depending on the cost... (Warhammer, for instance, is too damned expensive)

[Retniwreven]

I'm attacking the darkness!

Well, if everyone has enough of the manuals to cobble together reference, then all you need is a photocopied Character Sheet, preferrably some dice, and a pencil.

I'm using a Player's Handbook as a small stand to hold a couple anime figurines... =X

[Sgt_Shligger]

I won't be doing any of that internet boss shit stuff. Also, Randomness, it's a tabletop game. No graphics to speak of.

Also people, please take this seriously. If you don't want to join don't post.

[Nidramag]

i'd love to try my hand at it...

I'm aware of what it is... Reference materials would be a must though.

[Tact]

So Shligg, are we using the Law of Poverty for Monks or not?

[Sgt_Shligger]

Well, first comes first. If anyone is truly interested say so.

[Nidramag]

I SAID SO

Oh crap, I forgot about the not posting part. This is my last one in this topic.

That's me. I'm interested in playing if nothing illegal will be needed.

I'm asking about the rule because it will influence my class choice.

[Nidramag]

...

[Retniwreven]

Why would something illegal be needed for DnD? It's pencils and paper. Also cheese puffs.

[Tact]

Well, Ret, I mean communicating with the other players/Shlig. I may need to download something illegally to be able to chat/etc.

[Retniwreven]

I'm still fairly bewildered as to how a chat program could be problematic in that way, but eh, maybe I'm crazy.

It took me three days of rolling and feat choosing and manual-reading to create my last character. Heh.

On paper I've been a Paladin, Sorcerer, and Rogue.

I fail to see how you could need something illegal for that...

[Tact]

It happened last time we tried a D&D campaign...I bowed out because of illegal downloading. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif

[Nidramag]

im al for illegalness
my face has tasted cop car hood before http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[Sgt_Shligger]

There's DnD programs that make out character sheets for you and do calculations and what not, something Tact won't download illegally.

[Sord]

i'm all up for half-completing my character, then dropping out, while others continue on for a half-complete campaign!

[Nidramag]

I WANT IN!

Ah. Math is easy enough to program, same for randomization, but I don't have access to a C compiler, I never learned any interface other than the command prompt, and I couldn't remember enough C to do it if I tried. I could, however, easily run it all through my calculator. (Seriously, who doesn't have a TI-83 or better these days?)

Yeah, I saw. Read up on RPing just to make sure you know how.

[Nidramag]

uhh...where do read up on it?

[Tact]

Just act like you are the character, not the person playing the character.

[Nidramag]

uhh..???..hmm...can someone explain thee whole thing to me..., please?

[Tact]

Okay. So I just beat down a bunch of kobolds with my friend and I want to see if he's fine. I don't type "I ask Saraconos if he's alright," I type "Saraconos, are you alright?"

Is that a good enough example for you?

[Nidramag]

ohkay, and we can pretty much do anything?
and do we actually describe our character for other players to have a visual?

[Tact]

Anything within reason, at Shlig's discretion.

And I guess a visual description is up to the DM also.

[Sord]

within reason? more like within the boundries of math, dice rolls, and a spreadsheet.

[Tact]

Well, roleplaying a character doesn't really need dice rolls, does it?

"Okay, I'll get angry if I roll a 4 or higher..."

[Randomness]

Could make for a humorous gambler personality.

"If I roll a 6 I'll laugh at the irony of it, otherwise I'll scream my head off"

*rolls 4*

"If I get an even number, I'll use extra-foul language"

*rolls 3*

"DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN"

etc.

[Sgt_Shligger]

Seriously though. Don't post if you don't want in. Simply PM me if you are interested.
