I might be up for running something for a while. I've been thinking of writing up one of my old standard campaigns, Scourge of Souls, into adventure format, and running it once more would be a good test, but it's big. Think 3-4 times Dregoth Ascending - this is a bit of an assumption as I haven't seen the last part yet, of course, but correct if it is approximately the same size as, or somewhat larger than, the first two. I'd make it 32 point buy, 3rd level characters, no starting with magic items (psionic is alright). Suggested medium, anyone?
I think play by post would fit my needs the best, don't know about Lexus.

That's fine, but it will have to be somewhere other than here. The system here is that you have to play in a game before you can DM one, and I have *not* played in one here - so we'd have to wait a couple of months at least, in my estimation. Besides this, they don't allow players to be evil in any way - which is somewhat inappropriate for Dark Sun. Find another good message board and I'll be happy to run it there.
Never done play by post before, but I should be able to catch on.
I'm up for anything at this point, so count me in.
is anyone decides to run, let us know.... [email]carnival69@hotmail.com[/email]
Also, I have a message board that I can set up a section for this....
If you want to check out my message board, PM me and I will give ya the link there.. would rather not just blurt it out here. I have some ramblings there, bits of this and that that would have to be ignored obviously.. And, occasionally it does go down - since it is hosted on a friends private server, occasionally it has problems and goes down till he can physically reset it and stuff, but there ya go.
Anyway... let me know more
Anyhow, there is obviously sufficient interest, so I've decided to run it. Feel free to create characters via this site. Make them public and send me the link, and any questions you may have, via PM as soon as you're ready.

I'm assuming straight athas.org rules?
Also, you do realize the site is shutting down soon, right?

Yes, along with the specifics I mentioned earlier in this thread.

No, I did not. I'll change that to THIS site.
The Darksun PBP section is way down at the bottom. You can either ignore everything else there or not, it's just a bunch of different ramblings, I keep tabs on the dark sun game I am running here in Vegas with my group here, and other miscellaneous stuff. Right now the DS PBP section is small, till we get all of the folders set up.
Once you register a name there for this play by post game, send me a PM on that board, to the name thatoneguy
Once everyone is set up, I shall add you to the group that is allowed to post in the PBP section.
Also, send a PM to Aran there, since he is the one running the game.
-Hit dice. Hit points are calculated using maximum value for 1st level, and upper average for every subsequent level. That is, a d8 progression would go 8, 5, 5, etc. A d12 would go 12, 7, 7, etc.
-Dice. I'll have to decide on a dice roller database for us to use. Currently I expect I'll go with Nadaka's Dicebox. If someone has a suggestion in that respect, feel free to make a note of it.
I might also be interested (in case Pokémons are allowed).
Pokemon players are fine. However, pokemon as characters were successfuly wiped out in the Cleansing Wars to the great gladness of all those living today.
:D :PIt depends heavily on the estimated time frame for posting. Could you please make a comment concerning this?
I assume you mean how often you would need to post? If not, please clarify.
Regardless, I would highly appreciate it if everyone could post at least once every 3 days, hopefully more often during combat so we don't get bogged down. If you expect to be absent for a period of time, please notify me in advance. With the player's permission, I would be willing to NPC characters of those who are unavailable to post; otherwise, delegate the task to someone else you can trust.
Two people have already submitted character drafts, and three others have expressed interest. I think I'm going to close submissions soon, but even if I do, feel free to inform me if you're interested. People often drop out of this sort of thing.
