Thanks for running this game, I enjoyed the btb style. I was hoping to stay in, but Saturday nights were becoming too challenging to handle when the wife wants to do stuff.

Great gaming with Aramis and slimy!

You're welcome Rhu, had fun running it. Looks like Slimy is going to run some kind of post-nuke game next.

Btw, how's your Sunday game going?

Resurrecting this game after all these years, anyone that has played in it before may keep their characters if they wish, new characters are of course accepted.

Starting XP is 19,598

Money is rolled as if you are first level, then multiplied by level, yes, you are poor for your level, that's part of the background of this game.

No multiclassing in this campaign.

HP is rolled as per the rules.

All alignments are accepted.

All elven, dwarven and gnomish subraces are allowed, including drow, svirfneblin, and duergar among others.

No magic items to start with.

Keep in mind that this is a by the book style game and sometimes it can be a little more than some can take. Others may find this style to their liking and I'm hoping to get players that will enjoy the game for what it is. I use the 1st-3rd printings of the PHB and M&T, and do not accept the changes to the rules that succeeded those volumes. That being said if you only have access to later printings then you should largely get by, unless you play an illusionist or a barbarian that is.

If it were a PbF game I'd be in, but I find it hard to do PbV on a schedule. Ah well.

RACIAL TRAITS AND ABILITIES

Drow Elf: Corrupted by greed and avarice, these elves have abandoned the open spaces on the surface of the world in favor of the darkness of the underworld. There they live in solitude, trafficking little with those above. The breed has lived beneath the surface for so long that their features no longer resemble those of typical elves. Their skin is usually either pasty white (with pinkish eyes), or so black as to be invisible in the dark (usually with purple eyes). Drow are obsessed with magic, and spend much of their time exploring the boundaries of wizardry. They are altogether chaotic and evil, and have utter disdain for all others, living or dead. In battle they wield an impressive array of magic and melee weapons. They gird themselves in ornate armors and use outlandish weaponry, often with unique properties.

Though usually alone, they are occasionally found in small family groups that can contain from a dozen to several hundred individuals.
Female drow typically study clerical arts, and male drow usually become wizards. All drow have the following spell like abilities: dancing lights (1/day), darkness (1/day), detect magic (1/day), faerie fire (1/day), know alignment (1/day), and levitate (1/day); in addition, if the Drow is female, she gains clairvoyance (1/day), detect lie (1/day), dispel magic (1/day), and suggestion (1/day).

Unlike their surface brethren drow do not gain the ability to move silently in the wilderness.
Drow have darkvision at a range of up to 120 feet, and a spell resistance of 3.


Deity Information: (Utumno)

Perferred Weapon: Long Bow
Armor: Any
Province: Dream, Travel, Trickery
Alignment: Neutral
Sanctum: Anywhere worshippers are present
Ceremony: None
Taboo: Seeing the new day come and not having slept
Granted Abilities: Air/Water Walk Once per week/per level (6 times) at 6th level
Use Nightmare twice per week at 8th level
