A head's up, folks. When it comes time to pick alignment, I don't allow Evil or CN. It can be hard on a game when someone decides that screwing the rest of the party "is what the character would do". So: no crazies, no nasties.

OK, folks, 4 of you are done, one has dropped out over issues with the new Mechanic (Background Personality definitions, it actually IS a mechanic, with rewards, but most DMs forget, myself included) and the Original Poster of GMs wanted has gone missing, but I had a reserve player in the wings, and just let him/her know we have an opening after all. We may be starting with 5, rather than 6, but that should be fine.

I'm looking at a Monday start, as I have a busy weekend, suddenly. I may not be able to give good answers until evening Saturday or Sunday, but I'll have my phone and will check in for questions during the days.

If anyone has any questions now or any time, let me know. I'll be setting up personal threads to make it easier for private conversations such as rules questions or just Knowledge rolls.

also, I'll be using the bio line to give a capsule description of everyone to help us (and that includes me) keep strait who is who. It may not be the most flattering description, but it will give everyone an idea of what they have learned about each other during the journey. In only two or three words, so...

Oh, well that should be interesting to know. And I think it's fine with us just being five.

I don't have much questions now though. Maybe as we progress I might shoot some questions.

I've always done a session 0 to cover all the personality stuff. Anyways I'm fine with 5, can always add a player later too.

Folks, looks like I'm needed tomorrow, too, so the game itself won't start until Tuesday (Pacific US time zone, BTW) around noon. I will get the private lists set up tomorrow and have you all make a die roll for me after, however.

Also, we have 5 ready and one more in process, who should be finished tomorrow, so we'll start with 6 after all.

OK, folks, everyone should ahve a private thread to save going back and forth tom PMs with questions and private results and what not.

Please check to make sure you can see one such, and only one such, and that it has the right character name on it.

Then, just to make sure it works, please give me a d100 roll made on the die roller and pasted in.

Thanks.

Oh, and anyone that has a couple pounds of remaining pouch space and wants to fill it, this will be your last chance. Let me know about that, too.

And we've started. You're all sitting in the surf spread out along a beach somewhere.

Good question, and there are charts for that. Let me find them and I'll post a weather report IC.

Move is going to be a little late. My laptop has been in the prepping phase of an update for half an hour or so. As soon as it is done, I'll post.

I'm still waiting on three of you to send me your Con saves: Ingvar, Stig, and Y'strahl.

The others can start start discussing priotities for the day any time you want.

Well DM, judging by the con save results, and disadvantages on ability rolls, it may be better to have us wrestle a moose or a bear for some food.

I'm not sure how addressing starvation helps with thirst issues, but whatever works for you.
