[Dawnlands] 4e Exploration game

OK, as per DU's suggestion, I'm going to try running a 4e game set in my Dawnlands setting. The setting will be the hinterlands along the Little Road river,  between Dwer Tor and the sea. Think jungles, fortified trading posts, ancient ziggurat ruins, cannibal halflings led by lizardmen priests and giant silkworms that can tear your face off. Everything core is open.

To do this, I'm going to need a good electronic whiteboarding program we can all use.

IRC if everyone's cool with it and we can all agree on a specific time, or PbP if time considerations don't match up.

OK, and we'll use Screenmonkey for mapping, if everyone's cool with that?

What is that? A chat program or a voice one?

Screenmonkey is a program that says that it'll let me put up a board we can all fiddle with. I'm checking it out now. It's something AM mentioned in his PbP thread.

No idea, but yeah, you're welcome to join.

Right now, the best time for me would be sometime from Monday through Thursday nights, sometime after 7.

Right now, that works for me too. I start work-school in two weeks though, and I don't know how it will be after that, but I think it'll probably be okay.

I might be interested in this as I have not yet given 4th Ed a good try. However I'll be moving houses (and probably getting a job...fingers crossed) soon so the next week or so will be quite hectic.

I'd like to be a player in this!  Sounds fun.

When you say "7", what time zone do you mean?


Cheers,
Roger

Whoa, that is an important question!

Beyond that, what method of character gen do you want to go with? Fwiw, I'm going to play a Rogue.

7 Eastern Standard Time. I'm in Ontario.

And let's go with regular point-buy as per the PHB for character creation.
