The Inn Campaign Roster

[alexandraerin]

At this point I have heard from the two people I was waiting on, and so the party composition for the Inn Campaign is now pretty well set. If somebody applies with a really interesting and non-Divine sourced Defender sometime Sunday I might add them, but I feel good about where the group is now.

I'm going to post the whole list at the bottom of this post, with links to the character sheets. Please note that your characters do not know each other, but I'd rather that players have a chance to get some familiarity with the other characters for two reasons:

1. Your characters can see each other the very moment they first meet. With a large group it can be hard to do introductions in a way that'll stick fifteen minutes later ("Wait, you're a Warforged? And he's a Gnome? Who was the Shifter, then?"), so, you know, we're starting the introductions early.

2. Combat and similar perilous situations will go smoothly if you have some ideas of what you have to work with on the teamwork front. This won't matter to everyone, but if your abilities play off of what other people can do you might want to do some research.

kynn's Human Great Weapon(s) Fighter Optima Brand
stormcaller3801's Goliath Warlord/Bard Carrog The [Superlative]

amethyst83's Razorclas Shifter Night Stalker Assassin Lady Scarlet Moonbane
xaddom's Human Predator Druid Janus
imaginedechoes's Warforged Vestige Warlock "Specter" Archimedes Lens

gamingdragon's Deva Tinker Artificer Gallifreya Kasterborous
moofable's Gnome, Ahem, Bravura Warlord Harlan Vulpini
josol's Wilden Seeker Dunbar
luke_licens's Eladrin Storm Sorcerer Toben Brausen

There's a really good spread of skills, I think. No Divine characters, which is an interesting bit of happenstance that will surely prove to have no further significance.

And in terms of combat, we've got two melee-only characters, three "skirmishers" who have both melee and ranged, and four people who will probably stay towards the rear. The skirmishers all have ranged attacks that can out to far range (10 squares, in map terms), so it's kind of flexible in terms of artillery. There is very little "burst" ability in the party, but since I'm planning on focusing on more intimate combats with smaller amounts of (potentially tougher or more interesting) opponents that need not be a problem. Fewer foes to corral will also make the solo Defender's job a little easier without me having to go easy on the party.

So basically I think I'm going to have fun with this group.

If you're in the game, please comment with your Google account or IPlay4E Handle (you can set up a handle if you don't want your Google account info to be public) so I can add you to the campaign file. If something has come up and you won't be able to participate Thursdays at 9:00 PM Central Standard time, please post here to let me know.

Set my handle to imaginedechoes for simplicity. Thanks for setting Spectre up in iPlay4e!

No problem. Such a distinctive character with such a distinctive background is really going to be ideal for my purposes.

[luke-licens.livejournal.com]

I followed Imaginedechoes' example, and set my handle to Luke_Licens since it seemed a good idea.

I'm a little surprised you didn't swap out my Storm-cerer for the Acro-venturer, though. From a meta perspective, he's a much tighter build, so I spent the day getting as stoked to play him as the other.

Either way I'm sure I'll have a ball. The only real question was whether it was going to be a handstand on a balance ball, or ball lightning. ^_^

Well, we picked up an Assassin and you had expressed a preference for playing the Sorcerer.

I'm roseflame. (After we get added to the thingy, do you want us to add our character?)

[alexandraerin.livejournal.com]

Yes, please. :) I probably should have said so.

My Google account is, amazingly enough, stormcaller3801 with the usual gmail addendum. Much as with every other account.
