#1 Dragonlance: War Of The Lance

Post by Jason_Firewalker »

Alright I am going to start off a 3.5 DnD Dragonlance game based on the Dragonlance setting. Its about one year into the War of the Lance and the dark armies' powers are growing as the dragonarmies attempt to stomp out all that is goodly in the world of Ansalon.

Takers? Second level characters, clear odd things with me over AIM


EDIT: Addition: You have 80 points of stats, distribute as you see fit, but nothing less then an 8 and nothing higher then an 18 before racial mods

Wait, we playing as the good guys or the bad guys?

And how much effect are the cannon characters and events going to have on the game?

Good or evil is all a state of mind, I have seen players play evil characters that disliked the forces of evil and then fought for the good guys. But you can do either. The first character to be approved decides it. As for the cannon characters their adventures will take place but your adventures will be seperated from them

By the way, if things happen right, the cannon history of Ansalon/Dragonlance might forever change. For all you know you could be changing history there

Dont worry about me. As much as I would love to play, I really should enforce my 2 game limit... and I am already at three... 4 is more than I can maintain my ferret-like interest in methinks.

I am not doing a plot push here, I am doing something that is based on my readings of how a certain character would interact with you all. You are each outside a different gate to Solamnus and feeling a bit shaken up from a recent teleport other.

Just because I happen to know Dragonlance a bit and just happen to speak kenderspeak naturally in real life and just happen to like playing kenders means absolutely nothing!

Though it was funny making LadyTevar go crosseyed when I started using kenderspeak on AIM earlier :wink:

I hate kenders.........

No. Let me rephrase.

I hate Kender PLAYERS ... as most of them take it as an excuse to be annoying little children and jackasses besides.

Tev, hate to break this to you, but a lot of kender were like annoying children. Some of them, like Tas, were more mature. Others weren't. I play Kenders how they were written using established materials.
