A tall proud strong draconian by the name of Bemin as her first mate. Maria the elf navigator, Zyllis the security, Robert the cook and Sai the watching eye, Oh an a very large owl named Remington perched on the back of the ship. The rest simple crew members dressed in vests and perhaps a few new faces that have joined you on your journey// | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The Basics \\ | + | |
- | You need all your basics, your class, race, background and a story as to why you are about to set sail across the sea. \\ Your character as with all other player characters know nothing of the Land of exilis so do not write any backstory involving this world. you can use Kyle's or Alex's setting as a background if you wish. this backstory is extreamly important and i encourage some deep thought into it. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Homebrew: \\ | + | |
- | If you find some fancy homebrew on the great inter webs that you wish to use i am all about it. message Me (Sam) about what you want to run and i will go through it with you if any changes are needed. the only thig i ask is that it keeps to the theme. no space age robots or anime super sayins please. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Lumens: \\ | + | |
- | your character will start with lumens equal to your silver you gain frm creating your character plus 100. if you start with gold or coper convert them to silver. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Alignment, choose wisely: \\ | + | |
- | you will need your fellow players to survive this land, there are forces in Exilis that are watching and have no quells in removing you from the memories of existence, when creating a character do not make them a lone wolf, give them the room to interact with other characters please. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Darkvision \\ | + | |
- | if you have read the above information you know that Exilis is in a constant night time, this darkness is not normal. if your race has dark vision it will be reduced by 20ft or to a minimum of 30ft. if your race dose not have dark vision you have a choice to roleplay not having it and eventually earning an item or spell that can give it to you or get a flat 20ft of dark vision just cause. up to you, let me know. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Weapons \\ | + | |
- | currently i am working on a weapon crafting system, this mechanic will give you the ability to upgrade and forge a starting weapon as you gain materials and levels so you can customise a weapon to fit your play style. there are 4 beginning starting frames. \\ One Handed \\ Shield \\ two Handed \\ Bow \\ Feel free to ask me questions about it. this weapon will replace some of your starting equipment if you decide to take it. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Light Magic \\ | + | |
- | Due to the nature of Exillis if you know any spell that produces light you will forget it, if you know any spell that produces fire it will be colourless fire that gives off no light but still deals damage as normal. | + | |
- | RSVP \\ | ||
- | Please let me know as soon as you can if you want to be apart of this story so i can begin preparations. i am aiming from between 3-6 players. | ||
