Welcome Tata, I'm not sure that your name be tolerated by the moderators, you should maybe change it.

As you know, I do not write/speak English very well, so if you do not understand what I mean, let me know.

Edit* : For those who are following this game out of interest, do not linger too much on the grammar as all the players mother tongue is french. Please excuse our typing

Hey guys,

What are you planning on playing for this game?

Timlaff, any general idea of the setting would be nice.

I think I'll try my hand at the warden. I'll create my character sometime this week.

until then, ciao.

1 - You need to create your characters.

2 - Make a basic background. You can look at the world map to help you do so.

3 - After I received this information, I will create an history of your alliance, reason of your separation, and tell you individually what you did during the last five years.

4- And we will begin upon your return to the Westfalls inn.

After looking at all my emails, I noticed that Tata would like to give the Warden a shot.

I will then change my aim for something more pirate like! <Like that never happens, >

I was thinking along the line of this :

Liam sits on the bow of his boat, thinking. You can see him frown and scratch at a patch of unshaved beard on his right cheek.

Then, with a resolute shake of the head, he stand and states : "It is decided. I have been surrounded by blue all my life and I am not yet tired of it, it has to be my favorite color"

Then, Liam walks away, proud to be part of the colorful speaker club.

Here's one of mine as an example. Personalize it at your convenience.

You can play/write in the IC Thread.

Made a brief description of your characters in your first IC post. Personality, equipment, physical characteristics...

It's your turn! Have fun!

I add a brief description of Tornado Valley in the first post of the IC Thread, and the first post of the OCC Thread as well. I also added the Tornado Valley map in the first post in the IC Thread

How to ROLL..
Quote:
[roll]#d#[/roll]Diplays cumulative results. 1d6 gives the results of 1 six-sided die, for example.
(1d6)[1]gives you (1d6)[4]

[rollv]#d#[/rollv]Displays individual dice results, then cumulative.
(3d6)[4][3][1](8)gives you (3d6)[5][3][5](13)

[roll]#d#+X[/roll]Displays the cumulative results, with the added modifier (X) totalled into it.
(3d6+5)[16] gives you (3d6+5)[20]

[roll]#d#-X[/roll]Displays the cumulative results, with the added modifier (X) subtracted from it.
(3d6-5)[5] gives you (3d6-5)[8]

[roll]#d#b#[/roll]Diplays the cumulative results of the best of the dice (4d6b3, for example, would give cumulative results of the best 3 dice of 4 6-sided dice).
(4d6b3)[9] gives you (4d6b3)[16]

[rollv]#d#b#[/rollv]DOES NOT WORK! It only gives the cumulative result of all the dice, not the best # of dice. You have to do the math yourself if you want to see the best-of results, or remove the v from the roller.

[roll]#d#b#+X[/roll]DOES NOT WORK! It gets ignored.

Negatives results are possible if you give a modifier on the end that can cause a negative. The dice themselves cannot give you negative numbers, even if you were to type in d-40 or something. [roll]1d-40[/roll] will do nothing.

d0 always give you 1. 6d0 gives you 6, and so on.

Spaces are NOT your friend in the code. They will result in the whole lot being ignored.
[roll]3 d 6 + 4[/roll]

No I'm ready to go. I'll try to finish my character tonight, I'm still missing my equipment, and need to find again the message that says what is our starting gear.

Please note that I'll be on holiday until the 14th, so I Might not post as quickly as you. But starting the 14th, watch out I'll be there!!!!

Starting gear is :

> Level 6
> ----------------------------------------
> 1x imagic item Level 5
> 1x "" "" Level 4
> 1x "" "" Level 3
> 1x "" "" Level 2
> And the cash value of a magical item Level 5 to purchase basic equipment
> ----------------------------------------

And you can also do like Tata and take 2x items Level 4 instead of 1x item Level 5 and 1x item Level 4 (Example).
