[Interest] AD&D- Do you have an adamantine pair?

Do you have a pair of adamantine cojones to...
  • Play a 0-level character?
  • Play a character with 6 or less hit points?
  • Play a character with only one weapon proficiency?
  • Play a character who starts with a Neutral alignment?
  • Play a character with randomly assigned ability scores?
  • Play a character that starts with no money or equipment?
  • Play a character who's only skill is a randomly generated Secondary Skill?
  • Play a character that starts the game with negative 500 Experience Points?
I'm looking for 4-6 players to run the 1e AD&D module N4: Treasure Hunt.

[/B][/SIZE]


This is from the back cover of the module...

"Marooned on a Barren isle....

The island of Viledel, the mighty Sea King, was sacked by a pirate army 60 years ago.  Its destruction was so complete that even the location of the island was lost and forgotten.  Despite the rumors of immense treasures still hidden in the ruined stronghold, no one ever found the Sea King's island again.

Until now.  Through a cruel twist of fate, a small band of unwilling adventurers is washed ashore on a small, barren island, and discovers what remains of Viledel's settlement.  But they aren't alone; marauding orcs and goblins have found the island too, and are frantically searching for the lost hoard.  In this desperate treasure hunt, the real payoff may be survival.

Treasure Hunt is different from other AD&D game adventures.  The player characters begin the game a 0-level, without choosing a class, and must work their way up to 1st level.  It is perfect for a group of beginning players or experienced players looking for a new and different challenge."

Holy shit. Would you run the game here? Please?

Premier

If it's a play-by-post game, I'm in; however, I can't use voice communication software.

I would love to play. I'd prefer Skype of course if I can match the time to my terrible schedule--but my only concern is that's one of my favorite modules for doing AD&D in, so I'm familiar with it, very.

I can pretend I don't, but in that modules it creates some odd hiccups.

I have no knowledge of the module, personally.

Drohem

Oops, I guess I should have included that it will be a PbP here. :)

Familiarity with the module is no big deal.  I can, and probably will, make a few change ups and then always shake out differently once play starts.

Benoist

OK I'm in (I really can't step too far away from the Ptolus game and the stuff I'm working on lately, so the game being AD&D and taking place here helps a lot for me to keep focused on my own stuff).

Kinetic

I've never done a PbP game and have no clue if I'd be able to stick with it, but I will be watching this with rapt attention because it sounds -awesome-.

The Butcher

I can't, but I'll be watching with great interest.

Cargoman

Sounds great .

Realistically, I'm looking for committed players who can post at least 3-5 time a week.  I would prefer daily posts to update the game and move it forward, but PbP games are like the tortoise and hare race: players start out of the gate fast and furious due to excitement and newness of the game and characters, but then there is the great dying and drying up of players after the initial excitement wanes.  

So, I'm looking for tortoise players for this game; especially due to the nature of the module set up.  The players are marooned on an isolated and forgotten island so replacing characters isn't going to be such an easy solution if players drop out of the game like flies.

OK, so it looks like we have three confirmed spots taken. :)
