In reply to Isida KepTukari (msg # 2):
Certainly the player could throw out some guesses ... I'd likely stick to core classes (fighter, rogue, cleric, etc.) and core races (human, half-orc, half-elf) to simplify things ... but, yes, through role-playing and descriptions a player should be able to ascertain their class/race rather within several posts.
However, I wouldn't want someone to immediately post, "I wake up and look in a mirror."
This should be a discovery sort of thing. Like:
GM:
"You come to a door. Turning the handle you find it locked."
Player:
"Can i attempt to break down the door?" or "Can I unlock it somehow?"
GM:
"You rattle the door and figure it could easily be broken by applying ample force. Make a Strength check." (Fighter, Paladin, Barbarian)
OR
"You spot a hairpin, something tells you that with a little concentration and effort you could pick the lock. Roll Dex..." (obviously Rogue, or Bard)
Or even
"An attempt to force open the door proves frivolous, as does figuring out a way to unlock the door. Frustrated you wave your hand at the door, you mutter to yourself, and the door opens." (magic user)
I would only be looking for two players at first, to keep it simple, maybe four, if there's ample interest.
