When you fall in love...

*sigh* and now I question my sources.

Didymus: Anne, I’ve been wondering, and don’t take this wrong but: What’s your problem with me?

Anne: nothing! why do you ask? i don’t have a problem with you!

Well.

My band’s of the week have run out. I’ve gotta get some new stuff queued up for you guys. In other news, I’ve been reeading Farenheit 451. Great book. Everybody needs to read it because it’s more applicable now than ever. Eli’s already heard me go on about it. I’ll do a mini-review when I’m done.

Speaking of books: anybody else reading Great Gatsby? I find it incredibly boring though I haven’t got past the first five pages so -pshaw-.

I’ve been playing KOTOR lately too. I just got my lightsaber- I’m a consular! That game is extremely exciting and my character-kali poore-is turning out to be a lot like me, striving to do good but takes the easy way out once in a while and does something really evil.

And hey. I’m serious about the campaign. I’ve only got one last bit of information to plug into it before I’m ready to start the adventure.

In all. I’m just bored in this class, expect another rant later, or maybe a random article from wikipedia.

—Stay Beautiful

Campaign

So as most of you know, and the rest could have guessed: I’m working on writing a D&D campaign. I’ve already started and figured out the first village- Astoria, and the storyline/key NPC’s that live there. Currently I’m figuring out how to set up the bad guys and come up with a way to make the fight with them at all interesting. I know that for sure I’m ready for a first session though so if anybody wants to take part in it I’ll be happy to let you participate, as of yet I don’t have a meeting date or know when we can but hopefully this summer I will have information for you all.

—So you guys know, I will now list for you some of my quirks I’d have as DM, if you don’t like them I would kindly suggest you just don’t join rather than come and complain when things happen like I’m saying they will:

• All skill checks with be based on the context of the check. If you bluff and have high ranks, you still will fail the check if you don’t tell a lie good enough to actually convince someone- it’s not about your DC beating the AC, it’s about you using your imagination to solve problems. When everything is based on rolls the game becomes less adventurous and more processy which is just boring. At times, I may even ask you to take your d20 off the table so you wont be tempted to check for random innane things. If it makes SENSE that what you’re doing will work, then you will LIKELY succeed. Not to say that skill checks wont be made, they are nesicary for some things so obviously there will still be checks.
• Gold will be more sparce than usual, you will be needing to purchase small, seemingly useless but good for specific purpose items. While if you save up you may get magical and wonderous items, for the most part you will need to rely on the creative use of common items. This is another imagination builder meant to help you get creative in battles and dungeons. Carrying capacity and weight will matter, with these set-backs the party will learn to cooperate and plan ahead of time with their strategy. My campaign will be one of thinking and logic.
• Actions have consequences. If you kill a leading NPC you will have to work around the information he was supposed to give you, you will have to find someone else who knows what he knows and can do what he could have. If you rob a village and they find out, a mob will form. You will be less trusted, wheras when you do good you will be justly rewarded and heralded. You will do good to remember that crime doesn’t pay and no good deed goes unpunished. You have an impact on the world whether you realize it or not, and I will make sure you eventually do realize it.
• Everyone has a little magic in them. As Lane’s philosophy works from his campaign, everyone will be granted a very minor magical item of my choosing based on the characters you as the party create. This isn’t that big of a deal but I wanted to include it, I’m not going to be a total tightwad on using your head. Sometimes you just gotta use something awesome.
• You’ll all start third level. You’ll get your starting equipment and the promised minor magical item. Additionally you will be given 5000gp (After weapons and armor purchases) to spend. I would advise you to by things your character will think nesicary and not what you as a player think you need for the quest. No second guessing here, you have to be in character. The begining of the session will be dedicated to just that- getting in character and previous session review. It is important that people make decisions that their characters make because that makes the game more real and thereby more fun.
• Douche-baggery will not be tollerated. As DM I will be the Executive branch of game government, the Jew and I will be legislative, making house rules for the session and the interpretation of game rules. The party will be Judicial, meaning if someone in the group is making a jerk of themselves we as a group will decide what to do about it. Small squabbles will be settled with a quick “hey both of you shut up” large and on-going issues will be taken care of with a mock battle. The winner get’s one day’s bragging rights while the loser has to drop the subject. If the argument can be settled by myself or the Jew there will be no such battle, there will just be a “hey both of you shut up and here’s why” The last thing we want is to make anybody have to leave the game so please try to work together to resolve all issues.

—These are just a few of the things I’d do as a DM, that said, don’t judge me to harshly. I won’t be completely evil or extremely strict, I’ll just run things differently. I really hope you guys would be up for the game I’m setting up. It’s going to be fun. I promise.

Now that I think about it, I’ve got enough to go on for two sessions- w00t. If anybody wants to be part of the campaign whenever it gets started please let me know. Reblog this even, just let me know somehow that you’re interested.
