[D&D 3.5] Dungeoncrawling Misfits / Rules and stuff
« on: June 05, 2012, 11:01:54 PM »
I`ll try and keep an up to date collection of houserules and stuff here. If anything is missing or unclear, ask.


Char creation rules:

Starting level 1. 150gp starting gold,  32point buy, 2 flaws, 1 trait, max HP first level, average after that (So for d8, you get 4.5hp, rounded down).  If anyone has their eyes on a template, ask in the OOC thread or via PM. Most likely it will be OK, and we`ll work it into your racial progression on ECL 2. Inherited templates must be on your sheet before we start the game, acquired templates you can gain in-game if the opportunity arises.  Buyoff rules apply.

[D&D 3.5] Dungeoncrawling Misfits / Char Sheets

We`ll use myth-weavers for sheets, I`m assuming everyone knows the drill on this one. And keep this thread nice and tidy, one post per person please.  :cool

[D&D 3.5] Dungeoncrawling Misfits / OOC Discussion

Board is up!

For now, we`ll use this as a planning thread. Figure out your party roles, feedback on the char creation rules, etc.  Also, if everyone could figure out what they actually want to play (some of you threw out 2-3 different monsters, and others havent hinted at what they want to play yet), and post here for feedback, excellent.

We`ll be off in no time!

We could Summon Dead Celestial Monkey... or, y'know, get a few Bags of Tricks with our WBL.

Bags of Tricks should be mandatory for any self-respecting skill-monkey.

Does the free LA still apply if we use monster classes? I was going to go Tsochar 3 and grab a template on top of that, if it still applies

New rules, Osle`s stuff removes the need for funky houseruling. I`ll get them up later today. For now, you can safely ignore the first post in the old thread. No free LA, but if you have something you desperately want, I`m sure we can work out some way for you to get it on 2nd ECL. We could always play it out like you already were a templated version of your base species, and develop those abilities in the same way as you do your racial stuff. UA buyoff rules would still apply, but dont bring out any stupid stuff, there wont be any "feral, mineral warrior iron golems" in this game.  ;)

    I`d rather not have any Tier 1 classes involved... Pretty hard to challenge on higher levels. Sorc is fine, but I`m not that familiar with Psionics. So Sorc, or something else with casting. Beguiler, Dread Necro, Bard, Warmage etc. Beguiler would supplement the innate deceitfulness of your race quite well, I think.  :smirk

At that low level the Tiers are somewhat reversed, (Tier 1 are pretty weak at that level), and at the speed of a forum game I think that we won't play at high levels on Tier 1 can break the game.

I`m really not all that experienced DM`ing, I`m usually the min\maxer
giving the DM high blood pressure (Might we why I`m such a sceptic)... For now, I`ll have to say no, but by the time Wrex gets his casting, I might have reconsidered, if there`s not already too many bumps in the road.  So I guess that`s a maybe, but dont plan on it.

If I missed a question in the old thread, repost here please.

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.  :D

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.  :smirk

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.

Introduce Yourself / I`m baaaack!

So, after a few years break (I was around when BG was still a young community), I`ve finally gotten around to making a new account. Hope to see some old faces/names here...  :D
