Initially I was going to just use one thread for everything, but then it went crazy! So I wanted a nice clean thread to start the game. I know at first it might be a little confusing but it will get better. As you might expect I have some rules for playing. These rules are non-negotiable. It's better to find out now that you don't like me as a GM then later.

1. Don't tell other people how they feel when describing your character. Do your best to portray a mood or an idea, but don't just tell other people what they feel when looking at your character.

2. Try to distinguish between "talking" and thinking.

3. If you have a long post use paragraph breaks.

4. When performing a skill or ability describe what your character does, and leave it up to the GM to say how it comes out.

6. Use of bold can add emphasis to a word.

7. Keep OOC in the OOC. If you have a question or something just post it in the OOC.

8. Turn off your signature! It breaks up the mood when reading the IC.

9. These boards and my games are PG-13.

10. Turn off your signature! It breaks up the mood when reading the IC.

I am going to be doing some new things in this game, a mixture of ideas. I will be using the DCRS to keep track of characters, initiative, spells, etc. I will be rolling for initiative. Players will roll everything else.

When in combat, describe your intended result in the OOC and what your character does in the IC. After everyone in a round has done this I will write a post detailing the results.

In the initial offering I said players need to post frequently. I can post many times a day, but only if you do. A PBP game lives and dies on how often we all post, so be dedicated.

I think that is about it. Welcome to the Game.
