This section will place details on how to make a character for my game and what few items you were given to defend yourself against this harsh climate. -Rolls- The roll up system is four d6 reroll ones, in two stat lines of seven. Basically looking like this: Beginning Level: 1! 12 14 11 10 18 17 8- Drop 10 15 15 13 17 12 9 - Drop The reason i'm choosing to make the characters strong for this, is because most likely YOU WILL DIE if you didn't have this system. You were chosen out of the best specimens your race could offer. So suck it up without having negatives (Unless you really suck, and roll alot of negatives, in which case you just fail; and in that case, I guess your inspector was half blind.) As for the backstory, think one up BEFORE the game begins, that way I can soak it up, and think of how to make use of every one of your abilities. This is the formula for the backstories: Name: Class: Backstory: This section of the frostfell saga, is now open. Please go nuts. And try not to go too out there... The DM doesn't want his mind to be broken.

Character races: All core from the players hand book, Any variety of the races from the players handbook that doesn't allow a level adjustement. And due to the path that earth took (Going magical instead of industrial), Warforged (Limit 1) and Changeling are allowed. Some of the races too weak to guard themselves, created warforges to guard them. So i'm allowing one warforged in the party should anyone wanna play it.

Beginning equipment: In addition to your starting gold, your employers have given you the following: - 1 Cold Weather Outfit - 1 Portable Hut (50 Pounds, Improvised shelter stats, more stats given at the start of the game) - 1 sled (Per 2 people playing in game) - Armor Insulant (For those wearing armor, or...) - Frostbite Salve (For those not wearing armor.)
That is All.
As for classes, any and all except for psionics. Psionics are not allowed. We don't have psychics in this game, we have mages. Enough said.

Hey Frostfreak!
I am probably not going to be able to play this game at the table... However, I love cold environments and wonder if you would be willing to run a message board version of a sidethe game, a side Adventure/Adventurer?
I have two character concepts: 1 Warforged Wizard with a Puffin Familiar. 2 Snow Elf Barbarian/Druid, with a Dire Penguin Pet.
How it would work is you present the surroundings and options as per normal for a DM, written as a short story like post. Then I submit to you my characters limited actions for the day or current encounter. Then you post the result. So it will look like a story you are writing, post by post. Does that sound appealing to you?

Hold yer horses vince. I'll talk to you about this matter later, my game might be cooking off on a sunday, sorry guys, due to the fact that I still need to shoot senobio my ideas. He might turn it down and I have to rethink this. Which is why it's set so ahead in time. So I can change the schedual. As for your Ideas... i'd go with the Snow-Elf barbarian/druid with a dire penguin pet named lucky. Because you'll need the luck?
We'll do this through Backwashed Whisper RP until it actually happens if you want to get started right away. Because of the sercumstances I can go ahead and get ready and do this right way. Just post yer back-story, on here, and we'll get started. <3 Any more questions from this point that 'would' go on here, are to be sent to me in whispers.
-Closes this section for OOC Questions, but opens it for OOC character details.- Go ahead mates.

Instead of lucky call it Tyler Durden. Cus Tyler Durden the Dire Penguin would be sick. Insane too, but Vince can handle it.

Tyler was nothing more than a single-serving friend.

Which is exactly why a pet dire penguin representation would be so entertaining

Seriously though guys, enough of the BS. All character backstories will be posted here. It is reccomended that you at least 'introduce' your character to my world to allow me to get a better grasp of who your character is, and why would he be chosen. As of now, this is strictly for backgrounds only.

No! You can't make me! ::falls limp on the floor of the forum:: CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE CAT WILL NOT BE MOVED!! j/k. I quite clearly suck at this game so it takes me awhile to make a character story. That plus I am feeling a little... I have a skeleton idea in my head and I think I am gonna try a sorcerer just to be different. maybe something arrogant and flamboyant. But I won't have a real story or description to post till later in the week.

I am Diah Rheea...of the Mouth. Tis a trading town down South. It's an export only, but it's never lonely. And now it comes...this worlds' end...but not for me, I've time to spend. My family's good, but they've grown old....and I shall remember them, on the globe of cold. I am sure that life will be hard...but I'll be ok, for I am a Bard.

Enemies ran wild around the Mouth...this much Diah knew. He would sing them to sleep...and steal their shoes. He'd sing loud and strong, he was never humble...and if their women got lost, he'd give them a tumble.
He's found now lost, in a land of freeze...but now, as always, the ladies he'll please. Although he's wild, his heart is good...and if a lady is cold, he'll give her some wood.
Not exactly carefree, he does know pain...get in his way, and he'll make you a stain. Diah's a proud man, not without Pride...and for each of the fallen, he often has cried.
