Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys.
I have something special. I have in my hands a copy of Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle, the D&D Next preview. I am now accepting applications for party members. I am willing to DM. Prepare your bodies.
We will be using the pre-generated characters included in the book for ease of use.
The following are the pre-generated characters available.
Human Cleric
Human Mage
Human Fighter
Dwarf Fighter
Elf Mage
Halfling Rogue
Character sheets can be found here:
http://www.wizards.com/dnd/dndnext.aspxAlong with all the other shit you'll need to familiarize yourself with the current level of playtest rules for D&D Next. However be warned, Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle is a few iterations back (the book was released at GenCon) and since I don't feel like digging too hard into the playtesting material the book's word is law... barring the DM getting a chuckle out of your idea. Or his own. If you /really/ want to roll your own character (Yes we know you just /need/ to be your Elvish Cross Class Ranger/Mage... oh wait... that's me) shoot me a PM and we'll work it out. (By work it out I mean, gimme the paperwork and we'll see).
The campaign is designed for 4-6 players, but if we have more then that I will make it work somehow.
No sneaking about and reading the campaign book either! While I will be using the campaign... I will probably be throwing you some curve balls or running you off on a side quest or two.
While Skype or Vent is a (high bandwidth) possibility, I am considering using Roll 20, an online program a friend of mine used for a GURPS campaign I participated in.
