Yeah, I'm going to need a magic item list, too, please.

So basically, I grab Read Magic and one other spell, then go down the list alphabetically, rolling to see if I can learn a spell - And then I choose my remaining spells from among them randomly?

* Is a bit confused. OSRIC is very brief.

More or less.  It doesn't have to be random so much, as everyone is fifth level, I will assume the spell casters have had adequate time to build a spell book of their own design.

I thought you were ready to start, or i wouldn't have pulled out over a short break.

Okey, dokey, can someone with the DMs guide to hand equip my dwarf please? Armour, weapons & shield are favourite.

Plate +2

I set timrichter9 up with 14 spells per level in his spell book.   I can whip up another list for you, if you like.

Quote from: timrichter9;255604Also, I vote 5th rather than 4th level, since it will give the spellcasters access to the 3rd level spells.

Ok, here is your spellbook:

1st Level
Burning Hands
Charm Person
Detect Magic
Enlarge
Firewater (Unearthed Arcana)
Grease (UA)
Hold Portal
Identify
Jump
Light
Magic Missile
Shield
Sleep
Spider Climb
2nd level
Continual Light
Darkness 15' Radius
Detect Evil
ESP

Boots of Elvenkind (5000 gp), Poison Type D (1,500 gp), Poison Type C (600 gp), Poison Type C (600 gp), Potion of Flying (750 gp), Scroll of Dispel Magic (600 gp), Scroll of Resist Fire (400 gp), Scroll of Cure Light Wounds (200 gp), Scroll of Cure Light Wounds (200 gp)

Dang, I just noticed this.  I wasn't having anyone buy magic items, that is what the 5000xp stipend is for.  The 10,000 was for rounding out your gear, perhaps hiring a henchman or two, or getting a horse.  Mundane stuff one collects in five levels of adventuring.

The poisons are fine, but we will have to work something out with the magic items.

Ok, we are locked in, tomorrow morning I will be posting the IC and OOC threads and posting the intro to IC.  No one has posted over the weekend, I will assume everyone is ready to go.  Here is the rundown:

QuoteOne Horse Town - Dwarven Fighter - Character and Magic Items
DeadUematsu - Halfling Druid - Character, Magic Items and Spells
timrichter9 - Half-Elven Magic-User - Character, Magic Items and Spells
Sinjin767 - Elven Thief (still to post)
Venosha - Human Monk - Character, Magic Items and Spells
Shellbee - Elven Ranger/Magic User (still to post)
Grey Pumpkin - Half-Orc Cleric/Assassin - Character, Magic Items and Spells
Oni Kadaki - Human Cleric - Character, Magic Items and Spells
Eric E. - Human Fighter (still to post)
Narf the Mouse - Human Magic User - Character, Magic Items, Still to Post Spells

Sinjin, Shellbee, and Eric E, there is going to be a bit of time during the intro to post characters.  Post them in here; while other things are going on and if anyone has last minute shopping to do there should be some time to finalize your characters.

Considering the recommended levels are exceeded by about half, I will be boosting encounters by a roughly equal amount to keep it challenging.

Other than that, I think everything is ready, I will post the intro tomorrow morning, and we will go from there.

If I have forgotten anything for anyone, or there are any questions that come up during play, I will leave this thread active.  I was considering another thread for rulings and questions, but that would seems to many to keep track of, so post any ongoing rules or rulings questions in here, and I will address them.

Thanks for all your time and effort in getting characters together, and for the enthusiasm!  See you tomorrow morning!

Groovy. I'll alter my character sheet.

Sorry; had some computer-related troubles logging in and some...Sleep-related troubles due to...Uh...Neverwinter Nights 2...It's addictive!

Quote from: StormBringer;258598Ok, here is your spellbook:

Naren Ezer. Hmm...LN, cold, logical. I don't do neutral often, nor the other two.

Brought up by a distant and cold Wizard his parents 'apprenticed' (Read: Sold) him to, he scrubbed floors, cleaned dishes and learnt magic. It wasn't a loving environment, so he doesn't really know that emotion, but it was stable and reliable. He suspects he was taught magic because the wizard (Arceth Zezzar) didn't know what else to do with him and was LN as well, so fair pay for fair work.

He finished his apprenticeship at a mutually-agreeable age (Check ages) and left to adventure and as aquantances.

(Bit of a departure from the standard 'Sold into slavery' story. Suspect he was done a favor, in the end)

So that's five spells at first level, two at second and one at third? I'll check for sure after I get some sleep; I'm running rather low.

Stormbringer has authorized a HP increase.

Did you want the same spell list as timrichter9?

Oh, sorry - I put a 'Yes' in front of every spell I picked on the list. Was rather tired; didn't really realize it would be hard to see.

1st: Burning Hands, Charm Person, Grease, Identify, Sleep.
2nd: ESP, Web.
3rd: Fireball.

No problem, but your spellbook will have more spells than just the ones you have memorized.  With a 15 Int, you will have a maximum of 11 spells per level inscribed in your spellbook, and those are the only ones you will be able to use from that level.

Ok, fixing. X's are memorized spells. I've chosen ten each and left one open.

1st: Burning Hands (X), Charm Person (X), Detect Magic, Grease (X), Hold Portal, Identify (X), Magic Missile, Shield, Sleep (X), Spider Climb.
2nd: Continual Light, Darkness 15' Radius, Detect Evil, ESP (X), Invisibility, Levitate, Melf's Acid Arrow, Mirror Image, Rope Trick, Wizard Lock.
3rd: Blink, Clairaudience, Clairavoyance, Dispel Magic, Fireball (X), Fly, Haste, Protection From Normal Missiles, Protection From Evil, Slow, Tongues.

Looks good.  You can edit those back into your previous post, if you like, or set your self a link to that post for quick reference.

Ok.. So this is my first Module (rather than a social WoD type thing).
Are we doing a real time IRC game, or a post as you can type thing?
Will there be a FAQ explaining how you plan to conduct the game?
Thanks
Tim
