This post is all OoC.
I'm traveling, and that's been giving me some trouble posting. We'll try this again.
This kind of post may be aggravating for some people or against some unspoken rule I'm not familiar with. (I noticed creamsteaks game doesn't have any general kind of ground rules post on it). But I like to say things up front and at the beginning, even if it's obvious or not particularly important.
As I understand it the current PCs are
Dylan Pontius - Bard
Jaan Saaresar - Paladin of Verdant
Tamatea Ariki -Druid
Tristan Agencourt - Fighter
All are male humans.
1. OoC vs. iC
OoC comments will be italicized.
I prefer that tactical conversations occur in character. So anything like "when I open the door, you cast fireball" should be in character. Likewise talk about AoO, overrun actions, taking 10, etc. should be OOC only.
2. Character Freedom
In general in my games I try to be open to people doing interesting or
different things.Obviously in a shared world something might come up where I don't have the final call. In other words, you're more than welcome to suddenly have your character leave and go to a different city, declare yourself the re-incarnation of somebody important, etc.. I'd talk to Uriel about who should help you out in cases like that.
3. Rules Lawyering
If you have an interpretation of the rules which is different from mine you are more than welcome to write a paragraph or so outlining your thinking on the matter. At the minimum please cite a page and paragraph you're drawing your opinion from (the SRD is fine too, just give me a sentence to search for). Also please accept that my ultimate decision is going to have to be the way it is (unless creamsteak or somebody decides on something different as an over-all Living EnWorld thing).
4. Imperfect Information
I strongly prefer to reveal things that only one party member knows directly to that member, instead of the whole group. In addition to being more realistic I feel it encourages more roleplaying and helps people stay in character. It's been a bit of a passion of mine in table top and PbP seems to be well suited to this. So I need some place to send people info
privately. I think Private Messages on the board are the way to go for this.
If you don't have access to that feature then some sort of email will
suffice. (PS Don't post your email on the boards. Send it to me via Private Message, or email).
5. Status Quo vs. Adapted Encounters
There are some status quo encounters in the world.
That's it. Hopefully we'll get things kicked into high gear soon.
