Default The Metropole's Dark Rising

In a city called Metropole, is where our adventure starts. This city is the biggest and richest of all the reign. This city is ruled by a Mayor called Robert "Bob" Meulder.

This city is famous by the huge money transaction. There are all kinds of stuff in this city, including big casinos, banks, market and other things involving money (black market and mercenaries guild). The money moves this city, nothing is free.

There is a high killing tax in this city, which 90% is murders. Each of the players has survived to one murder attempt, and it's known that there is a group of people that hates each player (not necesarily the same group for every player).

GAME RULES:

Level 3, Non poverty, only 1 flaw and 32 points.
Further informations, talk to me.

I guess I'll go for a rogue, monk or ninja. Or maybe a multiclass of two of them.

Genji is a halfling ninja that used to work for some politician as a hidden blade in his opposers throat. After gtting questioned for the unusual deaths, the politican decided that the best way to be found innocent was to clear all proofs, including Genji. After a surviving an assassination attempt, Genji fled and hid in a poor region of Metropole and is waiting to pay back his former master with the same coin. He's a master in shuriken throwing and is specialist in poison use, which he carries with him almost all the times.
Instead of having a rival enemy, he have an enemy mastermind full of resources trying to kill him.

Maybe I wasn't clear, but the story is not modern. There are no cars, pistols or anything like that.

Since I invited so may people to play, I open some options:


1) Divide the group in 2, making 2 campaigns distincts.
2) Divide the group in 2, but both group play the same campaign.
3) Divide the group in 2 and make a war.
4) Mantain the group as big as it is and see what happens.


There are about 8 players interested. I'll talk to 3 of them in real life, the rest I'd like to see their posts here.

I go for option 4: like the movie, Gangues de Nova Iorque. We got our gang and go to take over the city control. The character i'll make will be likely to enjoy mass battles, like the ones in the Heroes of Battle book.

Very important:

I made a new rule to the game, no ressurections spells of any time are allowed.

Any player who gets -10 or more, must be healed within one round or dies and loses the character forever.

So be careful!!

Another thing, the enemies will be as strong as you are (32 points, one flaw and etc) so we may bargain new rules and points distribution.

Like 18, 16, 14, 12, 10 and 8. Or by rolling dice [4d6 best of 3, roll 7 times], or if anyone has any suggestion, post it!

But remember, your enemies will be as strong as you!!!

Note: Players may get special prizes due to their background, so be creative and we may bargain it too.

I have banned this class for my campaign!

But since I'm giving prizes due to good backgrounds, make a good background and I'll allow you, and only you, to make this prestige class. Furthermore, you may take flaw and level adjustment just as any other player.

One more thing˛

My friend's girlfriend wanna play too, and I think that a big group like ours should have at least one woman.

If anyone know more interested players, the battles will be like gang mobs and wars, I'm starting to think that the more player, the more fun!

But don't forget, since it is too much players, we should post as often as we can, to make it the most faster possible.

And it is decided, the group will be as huge as 9 players [or more, if someone else want to join]
