This is basically the same game as the one that has been running for quite a while, but it will be all official material, no house rules or non-rulebook sources of any kind, and I may enforce mandatory characters if things get too far out of hand (TRF has said that things were getting carried away in the other game). I also want chracter and OOC dialouge to be better managed, in other words don't fill this game up with a bunch of meaningless chatter (If all you want to do is talk about something, do it in the other game). New players are always welcome, and in fact encouraged, even if you don't own any of the books or know any of the rules. If any new players want to join, see the other game for rules, give me a race and class, and I will take care of the rest. As soon as at least 4 characters are made, this game will begin. The module I am using is a DCC, known as "The Black Pearl" (and I don't mean the ship from Pirates of the Caribbean)
Nothing about being a Dwarf is really that useful, just Intuit Depth. Either that, or get the child of Zeus's (disguised as a bovine) and the queen of the island of Minos's progeny to help you.
lol, somebody's been reading some Greek mythology. Ok, well at least I have an interesting and unique character...
"Sheamus: Have you heard the good news of Moradin today? Some guy: Uhhh, aren't you a human? Sheamus: Yes, but I was raised by Dwarves, and I feel it is my duty to spread the word of Moradin to all humans, He accpets comers of all races. Some Guy: Yeah... I already have a church I go to. Sheamus: Now I must insist you hear what I have to say. Some Guy: No, thank you, I really must be going now. Sheamus: Now listen, you WILL hear what I have to say now, if I have to follow you around for the rest of your life trying. Some Guy: Get away from me you zealot, I'M NOT INTERESTED! Sheamus: Alright, YOU ASKED FOR IT! *tackles the guy and pins him to the gorund* Some Guy: HEY, get off of me, you crazy Dwarf-huggin freak! Sheamus: HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY PEOPLE! *beats the crap out of him* Some Guy: Ok ok, I'll listen to what you have to say, just stop hitting me! Sheamus: I knew you'd see things my way."
Yes, to say the least. No, that has been embedded in my memory as well as the fact that Zeus is Hercules's ancestor at least 5 times. I know random *** **** about everything.
ditto. btw, it's Herakles (as in his mother Hera) in Greek, Hercules is the American name given to him. You know anything about Eygptian or Norse mythology?
Well, I watched a lot of shows that use the "Roman" name, so I assumed it was the modern pronounciation or something. Never really read much of the Roman mythos, since it's just a rip-off of the Greeks (Jupiter is Zeus, Mars is Ares, and so on.) And then of course, there's the miconception that the Roman gods were named after the planets (my high school was full of morons of the 3rd degree, or returdead!).
You know about the names of the gods abnd what their roles are, right? Like Hathor, the goddess of "fertility" or Thor(TRF...), god of Thunder and a very good Comic book hero I might add.(one of my favorites too, but never got why he said those middle english words, like thou, thy, art, etc.)
