Hows about another new campaign?
So, I've been told in the past I should think about running a game. So I am. It's still in preplanning stages, I haven't even read the DM guide yet, but I'm putting this up to see if there's enough interest to actually do it.
It would be a Pony Tales system, Play by Post- it's my first time DMing and it seems like PbP is a good starting point (also all that stuff about schedules and timezones and whatever).
If I get enough interest I'll put up another post that goes into the setting, as well as other details about how the game will play out. For now, with what I have, it will be fairly straightforward, essentially Show-Canon, Sandbox.

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
As will come as a major surprise for Bronymous, I am in.
The character I am thinking of using is Holy Smokes, the anti-hero of priests, a fire and smoke focused unicorn who often is smoking something be it cigarette, cigar, or even a pipe.

Be advised, if interested you DO NOT have to post characters yet. Ramsus just wanted to make sure he claimed the position of Obligatory Fire Mage Unicorn.

Will he be carrying around a metal cross that's "full of mercy"?

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
No Cardbo, just no. While that might have been the only interesting character, just....no. I don't like having to think about that.....thing.

First character to offer for this game with a finished character sheet: Chain Link the Minotaur
I am aware he's build isn't great if he fights by himself...

It took me a second or two to realize who you were refering to with that comment. xDCardbo wrote:Ramsus wrote:No Cardbo, just no. While that might have been the only interesting character, just....no. I don't like having to think about that.....thing.

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
I made two character sheets 'cause I'm crazy.
First is Starsprinkle since we seem to be going down a magic-based path.
Second is Dodger in case there's too much overlap between Starsprinkle and other PCs.

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
Ok here's Holy Smokes alpha build
Edit: 7/9, if you're asking for opinions, I think we could use a thief more than another mage. Though if you do stick with the mage, you may want to swap out pyrotechnics for something else as I already have blinding people out of combat so covered it's not even funny (5/Day).
Edit 2: @Cardbo: No, I don't. I have a lot of discussions and arguments about why. Basically it boils down to how people view good and evil.

Guess he wants you to figure out what your character would be doing when they heard the news.

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
Well after reading a second time... I was able to pull something out for my starting post.
Re: Hows about another new campaign?
Yeah I probably should have posted expo AFTER the info thread was up. The game isn't starting yet.

Would you mind terribly if I based a character very loosely on Vash?
Thats assuming you're still allowing new characters Bronymous.

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
Could I maybe join? I'm actually rather new to this whole thing, but this sounds like a good start.

Re: Hows about another new campaign?
My game's already full and underway, sorry. I'm actually surprised no one else has chimed in with a game offer yet. It seems you missed 3 or 4 new games starting up by about a week.
If you're absolutely desperate, though, I'd hate to see someone give up on it right away. If you wait a few days (using that time to read through the handbook, build a character, converse with the other players to get a good sense of how the game works, and read up on what's happened so far), I could try to fit you in. Keeping up with multiple characters on play by post hasn't been as strenuous as I thought it might be.
