I`m looking to get back into D&D, and seeing as I`m currently stuck in a smalltown in Australia that barely has a name (And very poor internet), PbP seems the way to go.
I`m considering running a one-off dungeoncrawl from the Dungeon Crawl Classics series, with monsters as the PC`s, just for some variety. Why a bunch of sprites, goblinoids, and other misfits would choose to band up together and go dungeoneering, is a worry for another day... Consider this a chance to try out that Nixie Dread Necro you always had floating around in the back of your head, or an antromorphic bahleen-whale barbarian.
This will just be a one-shot for now, but if it turns out to be good fun, I`m not opposed to keeping the adventure going.
Char creation rules: Tier 3 classes, any races\templates\what have you (As long as its not something stupidly broken), and if its something that isnt supposed to be a PC class, but looks like serious fun, ask. Cohort races, LA -, awakened animals... I realize this likely wont turn out very balanced, but as long as all the players are off a roughly equal power level, happy days.
Starting ECL will be 3, but everyone gets 1LA for free, and if we keep going, LA buyoff rules apply. Also, HD can be switched for LA, but this will cost you all BAB, saves, feats etc gained from the removed HD (But you keep all your racial abilities). Example: An Antro Baleen whale normally has 3HD, but under my houserules it can turn 1HD into 1LA (Which is a freebee), and start out with 2HD Monstrous Humanoid, and 1lvl Barbarian. The reason for the free LA, is to encourage people to choose more interesting races without worrying about missing class levels, and if we decide to keep going, it makes it alot easier to buy off your remaining LA.
If this sounds like your cup of tea, please post interest, plus a rough outline of what you`d like to play. No lengthy backgrounds or tedious builds for now, just a race, class, and imagined party role. Dont worry overly much about alignment. Devils, angels, or something between, if you can squeeze it into ECL3 (Or it has a racial progression), you`re good to go.
