Dungeons and Dragons, let's try something new.

[Emperor_Quimby]

As we all know, Mech's dnd got cancelled last time because of the missing presence of the characters' specific players, but that evening a lot of guys was on and I would like to think also available for stepping in.

I'm therefore going to try a new system to these dnd events by basically socialism it, but not in a Chinese Mao Zedong way more of a Sun Yet-sen way.

There is only 5 roles you can pick from, which have already been chosen stats, items and abilities for, these roles needs to be filled in before the story can proceed, but it can be by ANY person in that evening IF the original takers aren't there (If memory refreshments is needed, I will provided that.)

Now here comes the liberalism part of it; those who are first to claim it, can decide how the character of each role is going to look like and personalities, as long as it follows their stats, items and role.

As you probably all have guessed I'm going to try a pirate dnd quest, named Drake Drakus' legendary treasure, until Mech starts again this summer (maybe). I want to test this new way of playing and see how long we can go without player crumpling, hell it may not be we even get's started on this. All I can do to make this appealing is to promise illustrations and character drawings with the bunch, and the best pirate adventure you guys have ever been into, ranging from sea monsters to blood thirsty cannibals.

Im going to make a new thread every time we come through a chapter, which there are 7 of in total, and in those threads there will be character updates and situations so the rest of the community can follow.

Okay, how should he look like?

[Drakon]

I have a few character ideas to shoot your way, but hit me up on steam when you get the chance so we can discuss it.

Navigator seems neat
Also is it going to be April ninth; 4/9/16; 9/4/16. (trying to make it clear so there are no mistakes)

[Emperor_Quimby]

If he had a map yet, pusur

Here is how I imagine you Cheron, if I met you on the streets one day:



And by that, Navigator is claimed

[Charon]

Looks cool, also it is always interesting to see how others imagine me

[RevolverMech]

What time zone is this? Because if its after a certain time for me I can do it. As if I do do it, I'd like to claim captain


(If any of y'all wanna know why I'm playing vs. dming the answer is prep.)

I was thinking around 1 p.m. United state central standard as it was the meeting time for our last game March the 5th, because I believe it was around then where most people were on. But I'm not good with timezones, I just know it's evening for me around there.

Just put some description on the captain and I will make him.
