Before You Apply

Interested in joining the campaign?  If so, feel free to apply!  Before you do, though, please read this post so you know what you're getting into.

First and foremost: If you haven't already, please check out the rules I'll be using.  If the system doesn't appeal to you, please stop here.

Second, be aware that this is an old-school campaign for an old-school system.  Although it lacks blatantly unfair deathtraps, the life of a player character is cheap, especially at low levels, and you will have the chance to stumble into encounters you simply can't handle.  Success will mean being able to recognize when you're in over your head and being willing to retreat when things go south.  You'll also need to be prepared for at least one player (and preferably more) to make at least rough maps.

Third, this isn't a pure combat module.  Arden Vul is a robust location, and role-playing and puzzle-solving will both be required if you want to make much progress.

Finally, if you're only applying to kill time during quarantine, please reconsider.  This will, if all goes well, be a long campaign, and I want players who are in this for the long haul.

If all that sounds good to you, feel free to click that Request to Join link.  In your application, tell me a few things: what it is about this game that interests you, your experience with old-school systems like 1E and OSRIC, and what sort of character you're looking to play.  (Actual party discussion and character creation will take place only once I have all my players, but some forethought should help give me an idea of what you want from the campaign.)
