    I'm going to be putting a PbP game together over the weekend so to those who didn't get into SnakeGandhi's game: fear not. I'll be doing the same kind of thing as his recruitment thread, but each new character post should detail how your character met up with all the ones who've already posted (which is sort of what ended up happening in Snake's anyway). Thread up by Sunday night, hopefully.

    I don't have any rules for the Barbarian or the Swordmage handy, but I might be picking up the FR books this weekend, so it's a possibility. It'll all be in the OP.

    I have a post with more details up in the older recruitment thread, but I'll put more details here later too. One of my players isn't playing anymore so I'm going to need a Defender. Since he said it was ok, what you can do you are interested is pick up his dude, or his slot (which I'll can explain in more detail in a few, but I wrote things in a manner which would allow for 'hot-swapping' of players should the unfortunate need arise. :U)

    - It's not first come first serve, not that I think there's a mob out there wanting to play my game ;P
    - Any experience level is welcome.
    - You'd start second level.

    Gameplay description, in awkward bullets!
    - Roles preferred?
    - It's not a bible, it's a guide.
    - Only one major house rule, with minimal effect on players.

    The only other thing I'd stress would be being able to post like once a day. 'cept the weekends. it's not an edict, it'd just help, a lot. Also looking for a reserve on a leader position, because I haven't seen my other guy in while. 4E is really like wow, lol... anyhoo. Moar details to come, I suppose.

    edit: forgot the most important detail! it's pbp. the threads are on front page for a change! :P

    Hey bogart if you are still looking for players for your game I would like get in on it.

    Im new to the system but it looks fairly similar to 3e which I used to run a bit..

    Never played a dnd character before but I've done some pbp with shadowrun.

    Im openminded about what class with maybe a slight wizard bent. but I'm not picky about it really.

    I can post on daily basis after say 11pm eastern.

    DM / PBP

    I'd like to fill a leader position. Below is a general description fo the game, and what I'm looking for. PM me if interested. I'd strongly prefer someone who would be able to post at least once a day, and with like, a posting history to indicate that you can. It would just keep things moving and save me from having a lot of passive aggressive angst. Anyway here's the information, in a format that will make you think I'm organized. Maybe others can use it... and maybe they are organized. I just copy and pasted it from my original pitch:

    Threads:
    OOC Thread
    IC Thread

    Table:
    Current title: "the zephyr campaign." (lowercase, with a period. dammit.)
    Time Zone: I live in the Eastern Standard Time Zone, so the play time will kind of be more favorable to that zone. (8pm-12am) or something similar to that, assuming RL doesn't kick my ass.
    Starting Level: 2 - See PHB for information on starting a second level character.)
    Creation rules: 24 Flat -OR- 22 + 3d3-5 Point Buy (20 - 26 points, you must roll this even if you don't use it. and you must notify me before you roll this.)
    Target start: Active currently.
    Medium: PBP only
    Maptool version: N/A
    Maptools Session Length: N/A
    The Table - Rules: Not too serious. The 4th wall may be broken. I'm not really serious at all. Seriously.
    The Table - Content: I'd imagine this is its a serious adventure that doesn't take itself seriously or something?
    Difficulty: Adaptive. Most changes will be made known to you when they happen. I'd love to finish telling the story [strike]for a change[/strike]. :U
    Experience Required: As it seems likely that you'll be able to participate in the game somewhat regularly you should be ok.
    Books Required: Any 4E content is allowed, at my discretion. Don't be a dick?

    Abstract:
    The world of Zephyr is split between the Highborne and Lowborne, a distinction made by ones place of birth. The Highborne are of the flying islands, the Lowborne are of the surface lands. At times united and at times at war, there was never any factor that tipped the balance in either side's favor. Until now… (Cue music and raspy baritone voice)

    The Merkaban Mercantile Union has gained access to artifacts of immense power, pushing the Highborne civilizations to the brink of destruction. With the return of an ancient acquaintance, the Merkaban advance has been halted. Now, it is up to a small group of volunteers to set out with the aid of a displaced ally to halt the Merkaban war machine before it is too late.

    Party Composition:
    There are 5 slots for this game. The party will have the option of picking up some allies, who at times can accompany them... nothing too special about that.

    Characters will fall into a few meta-'roles' to seed them better in the world. At least one character fills each role. If you're interested in playing, be sure to say what role you want to fullfill. At this point, I'm only looking for one more player, with a fairly specific role and concept.

    You can't be a Dragonborn or Tiefling. Not that they don't exist, it's just that it'd be complicated to introduce them to the group now. The general rule for character and player interactions that I go by is don't be a dick

    There are also 3 static NPCs too. It gives a little of the story away, it's pretty much a given within the first session or so.

    The Party:
    The Survivor(s): (1 Remains) You were part of the Highborne military forces that were routed... second Division, not front line forces. You've experienced the artifacts of owning Highborne, and are affected by that somehow.

    The Upperclass Highborne : (Closed) You patriotically wish to save your folk. Because it's the right thing to do or whatever, or maybe this will make people believe you're the hero you've talked yourself up to be?

    The Lowerclass Highborne : (Closed) Drafted/conscripted into service, but chosen for this particular task. Couldn't be deadlier than front line infantry, right?

    Lowborne Refugee : (Closed) "Hey, not all of us are bad..." The Merkabans hit your homeland hard prior to anyway.

    The slot you'd be taking would be of the Highborne variety, with a military background... a Survivor. Beyond that you can probably go nuts. You'd also be filling the Leader class role. Since I provide an NPC dedicated to healing related things, you don't have to focus on the healing side of it, not that there's much of that in 4E anyway.

    Static NPCS

    The Ranstead: For all intents, its a tank. The party gets around in this. It does not have weapons. It doesn't talk... out loud.

    The Driver (NPC, Support): Drives the Ranstead. Will probably never leave it.

    The Healer (NPC, Ally): Dedicated NPC to the task of healing and healing related feats, abilities and Alchemy.

    World Brief:
    Some details for now, in random thought order:
    The islands float because of a magical physics defying rock present inside of them called corestone. Corestone is used with limited effect to power things as well, giving the world a minimized tech level around 1800s, with some anachronistic variation.

    Transportation is possible by rigging corestone to contraption creating what are the functional equivalent of zepellins. There exist massive cannons, and flak guns for anti ground-to-air attacks. Ground transporation is woefully underdeveloped, given the abundance of easily available flight even horses are a rarity. Transit by sea is fairly good.

    Highborne and Lowborne generally get along, unless they're Merkaban. Racial dispersion pretty much within the normal 4E standard. Dwarves tend to be Lowborne and Eladrin favor Highborne origins. Dragonborn and Tiefling are practically nonexistent.

    Other House Related things

    See OOC thread. There's not much. But this post is long enough as it is.

    edit: I guess another important thing to note is you wouldn't be jumping in right away since they're like... busy fighting at this point.

    Hey, we're about 20 HP from the point of being able add/swap the character of one of the people who couldn't play anymore and I need another leader. And the guy that I had picked up isn't gonna be able to now unfortunately. In brief, looking for the following:

    - Class: Leader (Any)
    - Race: Any but Dragonborn and Tiefling are like, rare.
    - Militaristic character background preferred.
    - All sources allowed, within reason. (ask?)

    At this point you'd start out coming from the faceless pool of assorted soldiers, criminals, adventurers and so forth that would continue to occupy the place of refuge that replacement characters come from when party members die. Being able to post at least once a day would be a plus. The initial posting I made on this page has a little more info about it, but I'm very flexible about all of that. the ooc threads has more info too. pm for if interested/have questions/whatever.

    Hey guys, I need a substitute for a Warlock in this game. You can be whatever you like, and you'll be starting at the same exp level as the rest of the party (whatever they've reached when you join). You'll need to post at least once a day and not be an asshole. Apart from that, a willingness to RP as well as throw dice on Invisible Castle is a plus.

    Mythweavers sheet and a brief character concept should be dashed off and then sent to me via PM after you've expressed an interest here.
