OOC - Third party

I have been thinking of adding a third party for some time now.  So far we have been lucky, after the original few drop-outs no one has left the game yet.  It happens.  Lives change, situations change – sometimes people can let us know it is happening -  other times something massive happens and they can’t let us know.  Players leaving isn’t a ‘maybe’ it is a fact of life.  Rook has been in that position for a while (and let us know), the same sort of thing might happen to more of us.  As you know, I like reasonable sized groups that can absorb minor absences without it being a show stopper, therefore I would like to have a few players and Characters who I can ‘promote’ when the need arises.

I don’t want loads of new players, because I intend for most of the third group to stay a few levels below the main party and fill in the gaps you guys leave.  Kingmaker is a massive AP, even before I started adding in bits from other modules, and my TT players never manager to explore everything available at each level.  On RPoL we go that much slower, there will be loads of little bits and bobs left over for people to dig around in. So, I will take in two or three new players at most and fill the rest of the party with secondary characters for you guys.  But read it all before you get too excited :]

New Players – I don’t intend to advertise on the Public Players Wanted boards if I can help it.  However, I would like you to ask around among the other people you play with -  to see if they are interested in / need another game.  I know there are at least two of you   who have said they might know someone.  If you don’t know anyone suitable -  no problem :}  I am more than happy to spend time with a new player, helping them build a character that will fit into the game and prosper.

New Players Characters will start at L1 and will be built according to same rules as yours were, according to the  defintion in the first post in the Character Creation thread.

Secondary Characters – If you want to run a second character  it will be either a L2 NPC Class Character or a L1 PC Class character, on a ten point build.  New players get priority (but as I said I am not looking for many)  and then priority will go to characters who have been requested or foreshadowed (there are two of those) then it is probably first come first served – unless someone comes up with a suggestion I can’t refuse ….

Welcome Mariam - who will be joining us OOC until we work out character details.

*grin*  now you can see exactly what they have got themselves in to.   :)

Please feel free to join in any OOC conversations that are around.  I'll get you some sort of RP thread as we know what to add.

DM, you are welcome to search the game you play in that I run for players.  If you don't have access to all the threads let me know and I can add you.  Or if you prefer I can give you some names and you can decide from there.

Thank you Zorah.  You graciously allowed me to advertise back when I started this game.  However, I think I will leave any further advertising for a while, certainly until the holidays are over and everyone is back at work/school/slavery/etc.

And now Jicca has joined us.   Hi Jicca.

It is like a main line railway station around here at the moment  :)  So I am going to close the recruiting, we should have enough people to make a go of it :)
