Erm, hey crazy folk :

[High Druid Of Paranor]

Just had a look at the rules and think maybe we could use something like the Passive perception and Insight rule from 4th Ed.

So we could have Passive Spot, Passive Listen and Passive Search.

So it would add your modifier for the skill +10 and then you could negate the need to wait for everyone to roll for a simple spot or listen check.

This could be something we could use? Just for handiness, but It's up to Colruth.

I have read the rules, very nice.

[Colruth]

I don't want to streamline rolls. Keeping randomness while not rolling for it, creates a feeling of insecurity, which I seek. Think of it, when you pass near a secret door and you fail to find it, or when you fail to remember a detail about a knowledge, do you know about the failure? And when you find the info, are you always 100% sure about its validity?

The goal is not because i dont trust you guys not to metagame. Its more about the mood, that nothing is certain.

Thanks for the idea, but I think for that specific thing, I'll keep it to me making the rolls.

[High Druid Of Paranor]

No problem, Just thought I would suggest it.

[Colruth]

2/6 Characters completed so far. Waiting...

[High Druid Of Paranor]

Ahmm...I thought mine was done as well? No? Was it just the issue with the background that we had? Because I thought I told you the small change needed.

[ClayQ]

As far as I knew I was done...

[Colruth]

Right, your clear Clay, just forgot to write up the character file.

so 3/6.

[Colruth]

Ok, I got all the characters good to go. Only exception is Toxic, but it shouldnt take long before we are clear to go.

Am going to open the game tomorrow. Please reply to the rules before posting ICly

Also, if you ever want your character to speak to someone privately, and you dont want to do it publicly on the forum, you are encouraged to PM me ICly, and we'll play there. If your char wants to talk privately to another char, PM them and cc me the PM so I can follow as DM. All this, of course, if it is logically possible to communicate privately in the current scene in the forum.

This is the way I'll do things when communicating to your characters privately. So keep in mind when playing, that not everything is black and white

Hope you guys will enjoy the mood of this setting.

[Colruth]

I received a few messages from you guys concerning the character files in the character database.

If you read the post in the database that explains how it works for this game, you can see that the character files are In-Character stuff, and thus the info contained there may be incomplete or even false. It all depends on whom writes it (NPC), and his intentions.

These character files are accessible to anyone who is employed by the Bright Shadows, hence why you all can see them.

[Colruth]

Hey guys, girls

I'd like you to PM me with the sourcebook from where your items/spells/feats come from, if its not from the DMG or PHB, thanks. =) Just easier if you tell me than me searching for each 6 characters.
