Can my character have a small dragon companion? Not a big dragon. About 3ft high.

I'm not against characters from having companions, magical or otherwise, but you need you present a character before I would consider it.  So come up with your character first then we can discuss special items.  Of course I would want to know how and why you have your companion, no matter what it is.

Okay, I'll PM you my character ideas.

Ok so freeform, we can loosely base characters on DnD but don't have to, DnD equivalient of level 8-ish strenght? I may have an idea, an old character from my freeform days before I got into DnD. Not going into too much detail here but rogueish with some magic for extra stealth/trickery and possibly low tier summoning. Unless the rogue role has been picked (in which case I'll think of something else) by someone?

Oh and can I get a short synopsis of the story and world so I can think what ties my character to what we doing? Or are we just gonna meet in a tavern?

Question about spells
Because this is a freeform D&D RP, can we make up our own spells, or do they have to be actual D&D official (if that makes sense). As in, do we have to have actual D&D spells or can we homebrew our own?

Oh, and I agree with Jim. A synopsis of the plot would be helpful so we can write our characters' backgrounds to match up with the campaign plot.
You know, when you've done it. I might wait until you've thought of a plot before I submit my character ideas so I can write a full background. Still might PM some general ideas, though.

Tom - I shortened your name because I was getting my tongue twisted trying to type that.

You can use established D&D characters if it helps you, and it will help me too as it gives me an better idea of what your character can do.  Of course, there wont be any die rolling, and such.  As for the rules, they’ll be more like guidelines than actual rules.

The only character that has expressed a type was an Eldritch Knight, which I’m waiting to fine out what that is exactly.  So if you want to be a Rogue with some low level spell abilities, that will be fine.

Now for the world and situation, I’m not going to draw much attention to that and details.  As far as the characters are concerned, it is their world.  Much like people in the olden days, they only thought of it as the world, most people in our world back then thought the same way.   There are most of the normal Fantasy races, Elf, Dwarf, Human, etc., as well as some stranger ones which are myth to most, but possibly exist.

You all will not be meeting in a tavern, but I will keep that a secret till the game starts.  What I will need to know is if any of you know one another prior to this adventure.  That will be left up to all of you to discuss and figure out amongst yourselves.

 

Dragon soul - Regarding spells and the like, I would like to stick mostly to known spells, you can use those from D&D for the most part, Fireball, flame, invisibility, etc.   As for new spells, I would like to hear what anyone has in mind in that regard, but remember this is a mid-level adventure (equivalent Lv , so really powerful spells wont be available at the beginning.

 

You all can come up with whatever background you want, it’s your characters.  Places, names, etc., are of little importance to me.  In this Freeform game, your characters backgrounds are up to you to decide.  Do what you will, just don’t be ridiculous or crazy and your free to make up what you will.   

Tom's fine haha.

I'm not the one making that character but basically, going by DnD terms, an Eldritch Knight is a fighter subclass that gets some spells (usually either direct combat ones). Basically a knight but with firebolts and stuff.

And aight, dibs on rogue then.

I probably will not have the time to devote to playing this game if it ever gets off the ground / so I am withdrawing from the game

No problem. Only had a couple of people submit some character ideas, but still need a couple more.  I will revisit this a little later and hope I will learn more from the BlackTooth Ridge game to help me with my game.  If it get going.  

Really hope this game gets underway. I'm looking forward to using my dragonborn drakewarden!

I will get back to you with a more develped character shortly.  

Is this likely to happen?  I had voiced interest and sent some information but not really fleshed anything out.  If I should do more and this is ,ikely to happen let me know.  I think life has settled enough for me to be able to look at things now.

Not going to happen at the moment.  Maybe in the future.  I just don't have the time to run this right now.  

 

I'll update here if I am able to move forward with this game.

Hey just seen this post - Am very interested in playing if you will have me?

 

Will brain storm characters ideas.

 

It's a woman's perogative to change her mind at the drop of a pin, therefore, I've been working on my story and I think I'm ready to start soon.  

So, anyone still interested, lets talk characters.  Nomad, Alverstar, Tom?  Still interested?  

 

Let me know, I have two characters that are being fleshed out, looking for at least a couple more.
