4e World's Largest Dungeon: Sponsored Chaos
WLD: Sponsored Chaos - Forum Dungeons & Dragons 4e Ad Closes: May 8 '11 Estimated Members Requested: 6 Mundane. It's a word often associated with the life we live. The day to day. Everything is boring, nothing is exciting. Most people don't live their lives, they work their lives. What if one day all that could change? What if you were approached in your mundane life and told that you could be great? That you could achieve fame, or fortune, or respect... perhaps something completely lacking from the life you normally lead. What if they told you that you could be whisked away to a magical place full of faeries and dragons? What if you were told of the riches and power that you could attain?
Would you take it? Would you accept? Mundane is not what is being offered here. Be prepared to accept an offer to explore the depths of a deep dark cavernous dungeon the likes of which have not been seen on Earth. Will you accept the proposal of the mysterious stranger that has approached you? Are you willing to risk your life for your chance to become something greater? This is a 4e conversion of the World's Largest Dungeon. For this game you will play a pizza delivery boy from San Diego, or perhaps a Naval Officer getting dishonorably discharged, or perhaps a runaway who lives off the street to survive. The application process will be slightly different for this game as Character Creation will take place as part of the game's introduction. These will be gone over once people are accepted into the game, though those of you who followed the thread in Game Planning will have some ideas of what is in store. You will have the opportunity to fully create your character, or play a random (or partially random) character in exchange for substantially greater starting wealth (not as compensation, but more as a reward for braving the unknown). I'm good with modeled characters. If you want to model your character after someone in real life, like say Charlie Sheen, I'm all for it. If you want to model your character like a TV character, like say Dwight Shroot, I'm all for it. As long as you feel like you can effectively roleplay the person/character in question, I am fine with it. Just keep in mind that that just because you start the game off as Johnny Cage, doesn't mean you'll still be a martial artist after character creation (unless of course you actually build yourself that way...) I am looking for approximately 6-7 characters for this game. Posting Rate is about 1 turn a week. I feel a rate of 1/day is unrealistic. Depending on time and responses I will get new turns out as fast as real life and your responses will let me. I have done several turns in a week (and a couple of times several turns in a day when time permits), it just all depends on how quickly we can all respond. To apply for this game, I would like the following filled out by you and posted here: I'm only running this ad for about a week, unless I don't find enough applicants. I will close it on the 7th and start picking players the day or evening of May 8th.Thanks for your interest, and if you have any questions please ask and I will try to answer them ASAP. Game Description:
Millennia ago, the celestials built a great dungeon. Within it, the celestials erected mammoth walls, locks, doors, and traps. It warded off those who would enter, but also walled in those who would escape; it was a dungeon larger than any ever known. Within it the celestials imprisoned hellish undead, demonic beasts, and fiendish monstrosities.

| One question about the class/race restrictions. What books will you be using for random generation? Will you give us monstrous races? Will you give use Eberron/Dark Sun/Forgotten Realms classes/races? Will you just use the three core rulebooks? |

I am interested, but I don't see how I can create a personality and background for my character when I don't know his/her class, gender, or race. They go together rather strongly. I like the random character creation concept, but this just doesn't go well with a backstory and personality. Even the build of the specific class is an important part of a character's personality. "I'm a tough, no-nonsense bandit who grew up on the streets looking for an opportunity to escape my life of crime and poverty". Okay, and you're playing a Warforged bard. |
| Sense it is random generation, will the difficulty be high enough to expect us to be able to optimize our characters to a point, or are we free to play around with our builds? |
