Love what you've done with the place. :)

We've also been promised a new character creation generator by the owner of exodus, Joshua is also a busy man though so it may take awhile for us to get it.

Errr ... that might be my fault .. I really should sit down and figure out how to tie the code in to the character database. Maybe when I'm not so busy.

[Lance]

Much thanks Spence. Though I never said I would have had much problem creating a character. It was more along the lines of the complexity of creating a character in the 3.5 ruleset (or in any ruleset for that matter.) I could have definitely finished a character and been ready to play in a little time, but roleplaying in a chat setting has never really been my thing. Not to say that I won't register and give it a go some day, but my thing is more along the lines of longer RP's and more freedom for the PC to come up with there own adventures. I might get with you sometime and discuss some of the stuff about Dathkandra, since I've never "actually" roleplayed in a fantasy setting before. '

I have more to say, but alas, I have to look over summer courses (everyone who hates/hated college raise their hands) before el girlfriendo has my heado.

I should say a bit more later tonight.

[Spence]

Ahh...we've had a bunch of complaints about how making PC's on Dath is too tough so people dont bother, i thought that's what you had meant.

[tanis]

     Yeah, I don't remember all the stats, and how they're figured out, so I would need some help with the character creator.

[Lance]

Yes, that's what I meant, but for that system it may be best to keep it like that. My idea is to make things slightly more simple, and base almost everything off of the person's writing ability. There will be stats, of course, but those stats will be more like guidelines as to what a person can accomplish in an RP. No dice rolling of any kind. After and PC completes a quest then it will be judged by a GM and awards and exp. will be handed out in that fashion, or at least that is how I'm hoping it will work.

P.S. Also if you ever wish to talk via MSN or something along those lines, I'm pretty much always on late at night. Which is from 9-10 Central time to whatever time I end up going to bed.

[tanis]

     Now THAT'S what I've been talking about. Like Mr. Roomes' rating system.

[Lance]

What exactly do you mean Tanis? I'm rather confused.

There will be a pretty basic stat system for this game. This is because the stats only tell the person's abilities and personality. There isn't dice rolling or anything along those lines. It's based primarily off of the roleplayers writing ability. The stats of a chracter will also change depending on the class they choose, but that will come later.

After choosing their race and class PC's will be given 25 points to distribute wherever they want to on their character.

Strength: 8
Dexterity: 8
Constitution: 8
Intelligence: 8
Wisdom: 8

the languages of the city should be easy, what i recommend is the local Human language (since that's the highest percentage), Elven and Dwarven, the three most common races so to speak.

Since they're using Rukemian currency and they're right there, languages i'd suggest:  Rukemian (primary), Common Dwarven and Eastern Elven.

Hope that helps with that part abit.

With the religion, that really depends on what flavor you're looking to add.

What exactly do you mean Tanis? I'm rather confused.

     Well, if you look at one of David's posts, you'll see that he has a XP system based solely on roleplaying for the session.

[Lance]

Nope... Havn't died, and I havn't given up on this either. Just reallly busy putting in the hours so I can pay for school coming up in Sept. Look for a little progress to be done eventually. The update you did on the Ormek will help out quite a bit. Thanks Dave. Anything about the history of Ormek and anything involving it is alwaysa appreciated.

[avisarr]

I'll take a look through my notes and see if there's anything for Ormek that should be uploaded. History or anything else...

[Lance]

Update everyone, check it out, I just modified my last update post. So scroll up and tell me what you think. More will come later as usual.

[Lance]

Well everyone, I actually have a real website for Perecho Heights up. Now I know it looks terrible right now, but I'm hoping once I get home and have a little editing software to mess with. I might be able to make it look a little better. This is also my very first try at something like this, so any help that is offered is appreciated. I will continue to make updates here though. Since a little more traffic comes through this site.

Aye, and I'll find a better place for the Khoras Banner later.

[tanis]

it looks like a good start to me man and good luck with it
