I’m really enjoying the write ups and level of detail you’re putting into this and am looking forward to the game starting properly

Thanks! I'm excited to watch everyone's characters navigate through the ever dangerous and chaotic City of Curtains. I'm trying my best to bring the sights, sounds, pitfalls, and social complexities of Ust Natha to life. And not just for you guys, for me too!

I fall in love with characters, but I also fall in love with great settings. For me, Gotham is a big part of Batman's appeal. Same for Middle Earth and all its characters.

Updated the races of the Underdark section with three more entries.

 

[Noam]

YES, THE KUO-TOA, MY FAVORITE WEIRDO FISH PEOPLE.

 

[Orikanyo]

they look rather.....

FISHY....

Also.. got some friend drama, possibly may be able to squeeze out a CS tomorrow, but god damn this is gonna suck tomorrow..

 

[Bone2pick]

I'm plotting and mapping out the first two story arcs while waiting for our fourth character. So far I'm pleased with how they're both shaping up.

 

[Orikanyo]

perhaps I* should simply slink off, thank you for the opportunity.

 

[Bone2pick]

Orikanyo Do you need help creating your character, or is it something else?

 

[Bone2pick]

Dalamus Ulom Magnar Noam Question for you all: if we can't get a fourth member by Wednesday, would you be willing to start with you three? We could always insert a new player-character in the future.

I would be fine with that!

 

[Magnar]

I'm cool with that too.

 

[Bone2pick]

Okay, if Dalamus is also fine beginning with three we'll go ahead and start Wednesday. We got one more declared interest in the Interest check thread, but it's too early to tell what will come of that.

 

[Qazi]

Oh, worry not, I'm about halfway done with my character—all save for the backstory, I think. I will send you a PM later, DM, to discuss elements of the character that could possibly do with some change.

 

[Dalamus Ulom]

Yeah I'd be up to starting a little early.

 

[Bone2pick]

Quite a lot of activity happened while I was logged off! That's nice to discover. Because I'm now working with two players on their characters, I'm going to push our start date back a bit. I'll be sure to tag everyone as soon as all the characters are squared away.

mothspit Excellent character! Ka'rte, though presently shunned by Lolth, is the group's closest connection to the all important drow priesthood. For her skills you can add knowledge of Lolth rites & rituals, knowledge of Icharyd, and House politics, seeing as she was a noble. Noam you might want to give Ka'rte backstory a read (or reread). It's changed, and she's loosely tied with your character.

One more thing VenusMother: for Ka'rte's personality, drow (and Lolth) rarely value honor and trust. Their Spider Queen promotes dominance, advancement, deception, suspicion, and commitment to their own drow society. The Society and Culture section of the lore thread goes deeper into this.

That said, Ka'rte is approved! I'm excited to see how she'll fit in with the group.

 

[mothspit]

Will do, and thank you!

 

[Noam]

Yooooo, Icharyd buddies! I'm excited! mothspit , I'll message you about possible connections/mutual acquaintances that our characters could have.

Also, just so y'all know, I'll post late tomorrow for work reasons. Probably around 10 pm EST. But I will post.

Just so you know, I'm still working with one more player via PM on their character, so it's unlikely we'll start tomorrow. Soon though.

 

[Qazi]

Done!

 

[Bone2pick]

Done!

And with that, our group is full! We managed to squeeze in one non-drow into our Underdark roleplay, which is the perfect amount imo.

Remember folks, Ravel is human, but he's also a spellcaster—and those don't grow on trees. Which means while your racist drow characters won't consider him an equal, they'll likely consider him valuable, which is good enough. Btw, I worked with Qazi on his spell list.

Ravel is approved! Welcome to the Underdark!

I'm quite excited. This is basically my first RP, so I'm eager to see how it pans out.

 

[Qazi]

Also, yes, the spell list is amazing, though it was much less working with and more with the DM doing it all by himself. You have my gratitude, Bone2pick.

 

[Noam]

I'm sure we can keep the only person in our party who knows proper magic one sickly human wizard alive. How hard can it be?

Welcome, Qazi !
