Fistandantilus3.0 asked for an ED game lately and got me in the right mood to set one up. Running games for a single player is only half the fun and madness, so I'm looking for three more players. Don't know where the game will take place exactly and what the main theme will be, I'm open for ideas, wishes and suggestions here.

All I know is that I have the following guidelines for characters:
- 75,000 LP spent (that should be enough for an experienced 6th circle character)
- 2 minor magic items (thread items) per characterr
- no limit on money: tell me what you want and I tell you if you can get it
- I'd prefer if characters are created with the Alternative Discipline Mechanics (available on the RedBrick-website: Here)
- Detailed background
- The characters know each other for longer and have spent the last year together

Enough for the start. Let's rock!

Well I PM'd him, we'll see what he says. He might claim to be too busy, He's working on running a Star Wars D6 game for myself and a few others ATM, plus another forum game.

Of course, that really shouldn't be any excuse to not play Eearthdawn. Got that Alex? :D

Well after Grinder put pressure on me I'm going to have to throw my hat into this ring.

I'll do one of

Illusionist
Thief
Swordmaster

They're my favored disciplines.

:D Sorry for the pressure.

The disciplines are cool, I always wanted to experience an Illusionist in play.

I'm too busy to play any TRPGs right now but I think it's pretty cool that somebody is playing Earthdawn. As a show of support I'll re-watch Conan the Barbarian...just for you guys!

I was wondering when you'd chime in. :D I thought we'd have to invoke the name of BoneCrown to get your attention or something.

Yep.
It's Ophis, Fisty and Metatron so far (she just PMed), so one spot is left.

What do you wanna play?

Race will probably be Elf.

Not much of a windling fan. T'skrang may tempt me.

So Fistandantilus3.0 do you want thief or illusionist, I'd prefer illusionist. Though swordmaster is always tempting it depends what else we got.

I do think I'm going to go with thierf/awordmaster(blade) - human. Sounds interesting to me. Think Steven Burst if you know the books, with just a bit more sword skill. ;)

Illusionist it is, depending on which multiclassing we use I may pick up some swordmaster as well. Definitely elf. The character will be showy and talkative (picking up several people talents.)

Sounds good. :)

Rules for picking up a second discipline (from EPC):

QUOTE
A character learning a new Discipline must learn all of the First Circle talents for that Discipline at Rank 1, but he need not relearn talents in the new Discipline that he already knows from his current Disciplines (see the optional rule for Aligning Talents From New Disciplines, p. 427). The character must have sufficient Current Legend Points available to him to learn all of these new talents simultaneously.
The Legend Point cost of purchasing a Rank 1 talent in a new Discipline is determined by the number of Disciplines that the character is already a member of. The character uses the lowest Circle among all of his Disciplines to find the Legend Point cost for a Rank 1 talent on the New Discipline Talent Cost Table.

— Rank 1 Talent Legend Point Cost -
Lowest
Circle
Attained

Second
Discipline

1 - 1,300
2 - 800
3 - 500
4 - 300
5+ - 200

The LP costs for learning Talent Knacks have increased as well:
QUOTE

Talent Knack Legend Point Cost
Talent knacks must be paid for with Legend Points. Talent knacks have no ranks — a character either knows a knack or he doesn’t. The character pays Legend Points to learn the knack only once. From that point on a character can use the knack whenever he uses the talent. The Legend Point cost of the talent knack is the same as purchasing the talent at the minimum talent rank required to use the knack (see Spending Legend Points in the Building Your Legend chapter, p. 420).

Metatron, is probably planning on playing a Beastmaster, her preferred discipline, it'll be a dangerous thug with pets based on previous experience.

Makes me curious: which pets will that be?

Btw, you all are familiar with the ADM? If not, you should download it and have a look, it gives much more freedom in customizing your character. :)
