Hi :bye:
Having realised I'd been spamming the "new abandonia rpg" thread too much, I made a separate topic for the D&D idea.
Anyone interested in playing, make yourselves heard!

Here's how I suggest the game will work (please offer any ideas you may have):

Each player creates a character according to the D&D 3.5 Edition rule set. For those who don't know exactly how that works, but have access to one of the following games, just make your character in them: Temple of Elemental Evil (the best game you can use), Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate I&II, etc.
Unless the game used is ToEE, we'll have to make a few additions and changes to your characters afterwards.

Post your character sheet in this thread. Use the character sheets in this post as templates. If you don't know how to complete a certain part of it, we'll take care of it together

Include a short description of your character (personality, a little back-story, eating habits, etc.) If you're really really terrible at writing such things and are afraid of being laughed at, you don't really have to, I guess, but it would help with the adventure a lot


EDIT:
The first scenario will be rather short and will act as an introduction. One of the reasons I chose it is to create the circumstances under which the PCs meet each other. Also, it will get everyone used to playing on forums. Experience points will be distributed proportionately among all characters still alive at the end of each battle (being unconscious, paralyzed, even stoned* counts), according to how much they achieved, and will not follow the core D&D values. Because of how long it takes to play, every 3-4 battles should advance at least some characters in level.
At the end of the first scenario, I expect everyone to be close to level 2


*for those who don't know, "stoned" means turned to stone. No relation to illegal drugs

ANOTHER EDIT:
The following people are involved so far:
