Hello and welcome,

-> Do you remember the good old days ?
-> Are you just curious about how they played the game thirty years ago ?
-> Are you sick and tired of "deep immersion storytelling" or "highly realistic simulation of....whatever" ?
-> Do you just want to have a big load of fun with rules so simple, that a 8-year-old can easily play the game ?
-> Do you enjoy to hack and slash through hordes of monsters ?
-> Starting and ending a good crawl in an oldschool-style-tavern ?
-> Solving riddles and puzzles with wits and cunning, instead of rolling skill-checks ?
-> Just have fun interacting with NPCs, and not trying to be an amateur-actor ?

If you would answer one or more of the questions above with YES then this is the game for you !

Please, before you read on, check the description of my game, for a short introduction to the scenario.

Now, that you've read it, and be still interested, let me summarize the important things about my game:

Estimated Size of Group ? 6 (six)
Campaign World ? Generic Karameikos (Infos will be supplied)
Level ? Starting on 1

Rules: All rules you need, will be supplied. If you want the whole ruleset, you can download it right here. However, if you haven't played OD&D yet, my advice would be: Just relax, and go with the stuff I provide. It may ruin a lot of mystery and excitement if you read the PDF (especially the monsters), but hell - it's up to you.

Procedures: The game would "kick-off" with the good, classic module "Keep on the Borderlands". It's a very nice piece of work, and can be played in real-time within one session. Which means for play-by-post, just a few weeks/month.

After I have accepted "my" 6 players (and please not before), you will roll up your characters in the appropriate thread, which I will be creating.

Posting will be required three to four times per week for normal players, and a bit more often for the current "group caller", if you want to play with one. If you don't want to, then you should be able to post a minimum of four times per week.

Requirements: The reason I want to kick it off with a short module, and not be starting straight open-world-sandbox, is that I want to ensure the reliability of my players, and that they don't fade away. I know how things go in Play-by-Post, and I know why.
Instead of trying to impress me with overly complex character-concepts and such.
Just apply, and write in your application why you want to play here. That's all.
Your character doesn't need a big background, just write a few sentences about his appearance, personality, and maybe what made him curious of adventure. And please - this is important - get a nice picture.
Knowledge of rules or world is absolutely not required.
You should be at least 18 years old, since there may be mature themes involved.
