Think Great Wyrm Red Dragon only meaner. Now they have less HP and AC then that but they have Better DR, SR and Abilities. The one I would use is called a Corpse Tearer the worst of them, I drains levels when it hits can paralyze or poison you with its breath weapon and casts spells as a 17th level cleric. Not to mention pick you up and fling you against a wall for 11d6 damage.

Looking forward to seeing Eolaer talking more on the forum RP then ... yeah the Drow game currently has 7 PC's not sure Madelaine would want to add an 8th, up to her in any case ... ok didn't know it would be a once a month thing on nydhog's part... Hmmm... do people think 3 campaigns would be too much ? Dragonlance every other week, nydhog's campaign one week, rin's campaign the next week? So to give an example once Madelaine is forced to leave us ... First Tuesday - Dragonlance game Second Tuesday - darkalloy game Third Tuesday - Dragonlance game Fourth Tuesday - nydhog game and repeat the cycle over and over.. thoughts ?

That would be fine now to kill FG... resurrect it, kill it again, then bring it back as my undead slave, which I re-dead and repeat until it works.

A month between sessions does seem like a really long time, but everyone else feels it's alright then I'm certainly willing to give it a try.

I'll just have to make sure mines extra gritty... Also I think I will boost the Xp rewards a tad bit or maybe just the gold... Either way.

Guess you could also always say most of it happens on the forum, and the FG session once a month is mostly to get any combats out of the way. It's an idea in any case.

Yep that's true forum RP posting would be an issue with 3 games going at once .... good point... how do we feel about a less RP heavy game on nydhog's part ? .... that is nydhog putting most of his work into the FG game sessions and not being as active on the forum as a DM as opposed to what Madelaine and I do ? .. I think that would be easier on nydhog to begin with ... leaving us with just 2 campaigns to do the forum RP thing on as a player ... UPDATE AND EDIT .. We currently have 8 players total between the drow and dragonlance campaigns .. no offense to Aldhurin but he's only made one FG game session I think .. though I can understand why, poor guy can only game once every two weeks in the drow campaign since I don't have room for him in dragonlance .. in other words when he's forced to miss a game session it really hurts him and he just joined... and he mentioned he only wants to be in one campaign for right now... ..... so not counting him as a full fledged player and more of a casual gamer "trainee" interested in learning the FG ropes , up to darkalloy and nydhog if they want an occasional-player-trainee in their campaigns but I'm sure they won't say no .. but we'll be down 1 player when/if Madelaine is forced to leave us ... that brings it to 7 players total.. another way of looking at it is 6 potential players and one DM which I think nydhog or darkalloy could handle in terms of the number of players (if not let us know guys ! ) ..

I would like to join but timezone MAY become an issue one day and I would strongly recommend another day in the week. I would not like to run my drow game only once per month. Once per 2 weeks is the minimum for me. Same with playing the DL game.
My $0.02

Sorry ! to clarify further.. this would take place AFTER and IF your Drow campaign comes to an end is my understanding Madelaine ! .. basically these are "what campaigns will fill the gap if Madelaine is forced to leave us" and not so much " campaigns we're going to run at the same time as dragonlance and drow" ... Now if people feel differently about this and would like to be in a darkalloy/nydhog game right away then yes we'd need to look at another day in the week we could run the games aside from Tuesday.. I'm really not available any day but Tuesdays due to my wife's eratic retail work schedule (she works for walgreens), Tues nights are the only nights she's routinely off work every week and thus able to watch my munchkins while I game ... so I'm pretty much the Tues night dragonlance DM / player in a Tues game (either Madelaine's own or , hopefully, another campaign should madelaine have to leave us ) .. but obviously if players want to start gaming right away in a nydhog/darkalloy campaign feel free ! It would just have to be on a day other than Tuesdays .. From what I understand now that I think about it though.. Madelaline you were thinking that you would NOT have to leave the group and that you might have enough flexibility in your work schedule to continue running the Drow game anyways? If not that's totally understandable mind you, there's a big time zone difference between you and us ! (so don't think I'm trying to be demanding or anything )

I do not have a job yet and I have no idea how reliable the other offer is so far. The new year just began. I will keep you updated but I am really looking for a new job now that I am all healed up and unless I am moving to Toronto there will be a huge timezone issue for me.

Ok got it... so Madelaine is, for now, able to run the Drow campaign but it's uncertain how long she'll be able to run it for us and there's a possibility she'll be forced to leave the group when she finds that new job ... waahh ! (but of course we all obviously understand, we all know that everyone kind of needs a job ! ) So I'd propose the following - continue as is with dragonlance one week, drow next week et cetera - nydhog should start work on his campaign , dark alloy will continue work on his campaign - madelaine will let us know if she can stay in the group or if she'll be forced to leave .. at which point we can discuss what will take the place of Madelaline's campaign. With nydhog working on his campaign too that keeps our options open. Sound good everyone? Anyone who's interested in nydhog's campaign (and even if you're not you should STILL let us know so we're not wondering if you're an "unspoken but interested" or " just not interested " ) should post here and let us know... darkalloy, casdegere, solardawn and madelaline (say if she's no longer able to DM a drow game but is still able to join us as a player in one hypothetical example) have all expressed an interest in nydhog's game.. I'm interested in being a player in it too but we still need to hear from flak and valaun ...

I don't know a lot about the system Nydhog will use for his campaign, but then again I don't know a lot about the one Solardawn will use either beside from his pdfs.
I'd learn with time, and I'm game for what you all decide to figure out.

Ok nydhog that's basically at least 5 interested players.. myself, flak, solardawn, darkalloy, casdegere ... and possibly madelaine for a 6th player if she's still able to stay with us when she gets that new employment given the time zone differences.. aldhurin would be a 7th possible player if you're ok with an additional player as a casual " not always there for each FG game session and just learning the ropes" kind of guy ... I'd say go ahead and start the campaign if you like However the campaign would still be an "up in the air" thing due to circumstances beyond Madelaine's control (waiting to see how the job thing turns out ) ... in other words not sure exactly WHEN we'd be implementing the campaign... Also to clarify further I, darkalloy, solardawn and flak are ok with a once a month nydhog campaign and a once a month darkalloy game .. casdegere has reservations about being able to do the forum RP thing in all three campaigns.. nydhog were you thinking of your campaign being forum RP light since you said you'd only have time to run it once a month? (in other words pretty much all of the campaign takes place in FG game sessions and not on the forum? Gives you less to keep track of as a DM given your busy schedule ) Post away nydhog and let us know !
