Basic Fantasy RPG Forums

A few things about me and how I GM.

I like games loose and fun. I try to stick mainly to the rules but will sometimes tweak things for the sake of the story. I try not to railroad (often). I do like to generally keep it in the realm of realistic fantasy (e.g. physics work like the real world, you cannot carry around 500lbs of gear, etc).

I am not a big stickler on encumbrance but stay within reason and if you plan on carrying 2,000cp around make sure you think about how you are doing it. I may suddenly ask for details on how you plan on doing that.

Notes on food, torches, etc. We will track these during the game to some degree but this can easily be offset by actually doing a little planning. I am not into resource gaming so I am not going to track minutes and seconds your torch lasts but I will tell you when a torch flutters out or you are thirty. So plan ahead.

Also, we will be beginning play in the city of Bethmoora, likely you have all come here to seek your fortune in Ghorl Nigral, the massive pit. As treasure, and dangers, are plenty down the hole, adventurers come this way often. You are likely just another in a long line of persons seeking adventure that will go into the pit and never return.

Sparka is happy to be in the middle middle or middle back. She's squishy.

Bragi is also squishy and would prefer not to be at the ends.

How about single file, something like:
Holden
Armik'olger
Bragi
Squishy
Rent-a-cleric

?

Bragi is fine with this order if the Big Folk don't mind risking getting shot by Bragi's crossbow.

"Rent-a-cleric"

Thanks for the laugh this morning.

Sorry, going to have to take a break for about a month due to exams. Mattjackson, could you please take over my character until then?

We have been moving very slowly and I am toying with ending this game. I am discovering that I am simply too busy at the moment to focus as much as I wanted/needed to.

That's a shame because I've been enjoying it so far. But a GM's gotta do what a GM's gotta do.
