Hey Everyone,

I was thinking of running a 4th Edition Dungeons and Dragons game (most likely arround the just released freebie adventure Kyber's Harvest) And I thought I would check here for interest in such a thing.

System=> 4th Edition Dnd
Setting=> Eberron, but not terribly strict about it
Place=> Here, Play by post
Frequency=> Shooting for a Post a weekday
Players/Characters=> If I could get 5 players using either one of the pregens provided or another appropriate level 2 character (Phb 1,2 and Eberron Players guide only please) that would be ideal
Style=> Tyranny of Fun

If your interested leave a post, I would only be signing up for the first adventure but if people are decent and willing to continue as I see no reason atm not to.

Sure, I'd give it a shot.  I would like to try out the 4e Eberron stuff.  I have the Character Builder, so I would like build my own character.  Are you using the Standard Array?  What would be the starting money for 2nd level?

that would be 16,14,13,12,11,10 for the stats.

and if you use the builder please make sure to turn off stray sources (just phb1,2 and Eberron Players Guide)

otherwise, a level 1, 2, and 3 item as well as gold equal the price of a level 1 item.

Lets just hope we get some more takers...

Sure, sign me up. I've read the books (mostly) and played 3 RPGA modules, I guess that qualifies me as an expert by now.

Warforged Racial Traits
Living Construct:  You are a living construct.  You do not need to eat, drink, breathe, or sleep.  You never make Endurance checks to resist the effect of starvation, thirst, or suffocation.  All other conditions and effects affect you normally.
Unsleeping Watcher:  You do not sleep and instead enter a state of inactivity for 4 hours to gain the benefits of an extended rest.  While in this state, you are fully aware of your surroundings and notice approaching enemies and other events as normal.
Warforged Resilience:  You have a +2 racial bonus to saving throws against ongoing damage.  Also, when you make a death saving throw, you can take the better result of your die roll or 10.
Warforged Mind:  You have a +1 racial bonus to your Will.
Warforged Resolve:  You have the warforged resolve power.

Warforged Resolve (Warforged Racial Power)
Encounter * Healing
Minor Action * Personal
Effect: You gain a number of temporary hit points equal to 3 + one-half your level.  You may make an immediate saving throw against one effect that inflicts ongoing damage and can be ended with a save.  In addition, if you are bloodied you regain hit points equal to 3 + one half your level.

*sigh*

Darn it, I was looking forward to trying out a warforged character and the warden class.

You're missing people or something? I could join if you guys want.

Quote from: Benoist;315092You're missing people or something? I could join if you guys want.

Yeah!

That puts us at 3 players, and if people are willing to play with that many I'm willing to run with that many.

Now the question is =>

Last time I had 3 players, I got everyone to run 2 character but this was in RL, so

Do you guys want to run 1 or 2 characters each (if 1 each I can adjust the encounters as appropiate dont worry).

Either way, lets see what everyone wants to roll and maybe we can actually start gaming before august.

I'm cool with just three PCs, and I'd rather not play two PCs.  I'm cool with either adjusting the encounters or adding NPCs.

One PC each please. Let's not make this any more like a wargame than it already will be.

I'm going with my pals. One PC each will be just fine!

Drohem: I don't know what a Warden does, exactly. Am I right in assuming this is some sort of dwarven defender/tank of some type?

What do you want to play, Koala?

Group synergy's going to be paramount, if I understand the coop aspect of 4e correctly. I'm flexible on my character choice, so that's why I ask what you guys are playing.

Yeah, a Warden is a Defender and is like a tank that's in touch with Nature who can take on beastial or treelike aspects.

I myself hate NPC hangers  so that probably wont be happening. its easy enough to adjust the encounters downward.

That said I would probably encourage a striker and leader, control is nice but decidedly underwhelming in places. That said the synergy I find really has to come from the players and not what they are playing. You can have all the synergy in the world but if you don't use it, its not going to help you.

That said, if someone else is interested, by all means hop on the wagon we got some space. Otherwise I look forward to finding out about your characters. If you have any questions about character creation besure to post them.

Werekoala and Benoist, what race/class characters are you thinking about?
