[Counsel of Wyrms, which will be CoW from here out cuz it makes me laugh] Continuing game planning and chatter here
raspberrydrink
So I'm tentively thinking every other Saturday in the early est afternoon, just like Maze was. BUT since I work mornings now weekdays are an option. only days that are NOT are Friday and Sunday due to games
raspberrydrink
also wanna stick with 5-6 players tops
raspberrydrink
When do I want to start? When I made the first plurk it was a vague "idk some time this year?" but now my brain is full NOOOOOW
raspberrydrink
but lol with that's not happening- so tentative late spring early summer?
raspberrydrink
May or June probs
raspberrydrink
also it will be on r20 and discord voice chat!
raspberrydrink
"Jess, how long will it go/what's your level goal?" well I learned my lesson from Maze to never try and predict timeframe but my goal is similar to Maze which lasted a yearish
raspberrydrink
and my MINUMUM level goal is 10, with hopes for... well 20 of course but more realisticly 15
raspberrydrink
those that played in Maze know I heavily lean milestone leveling, but CoW will have a slightly different leveling set up focusing on characters horde and downtime!
raspberrydrink
characters will still level as a party tho cuz I hate players outpacing each other cuz of kills or stupid shit like that
raspberrydrink
I have a question for potential players concerning Size Stuff
raspberrydrink
there are three options here so let me know your prefs!
raspberrydrink
1) game as written. You are dragons all the time unless you get the vassal form feat
raspberrydrink
2) Everyone makes two characters, one dragon one humanoid, and swap as needed with the humanoid being the dragon's servant
raspberrydrink
3) Everyone gets the Vassel Form feat for free at some point so everyone can shapeshift
Awe
sittin here

I vote 3 personall
𝚌𝚘𝚘𝚕 𝚍𝚘𝚠𝚗
I honestly would not enjoy being DERG all the time
raspberrydrink
I'm leaning 3 myself
Awe
I think 3 is also great
Phas|DippedOut
3 sounds good
raspberrydrink
plus I know our shippy hearts will find humanoid forms easier to make smooch
raspberrydrink
also if y'all have any questions plz ask! I'll have a lot more setting info closer to actual game time of course but... gets the brain flowing
𝚌𝚘𝚘𝚕 𝚍𝚘𝚠𝚗
is it gonna be in Faerun or nah?
Rama
The publishers are cowards for not calling this Diet of Wyrms
raspberrydrink
𝚌𝚘𝚘𝚕 𝚍𝚘𝚠𝚗
: it's not as far as I can tell! from the setting lore dragons almost ONLY live on the Blood Isles so it's def alt history from faerun
raspberrydrink
but like, when it comes to setting rules and such it's pretty similar
𝚌𝚘𝚘𝚕 𝚍𝚘𝚠𝚗
ooooh okay
raspberrydrink
Rama
: you are right and should say it
sailor bii
I agree with Nerdo

I'm reading through the PDF right now, uncertain about my schedule and wanting to step aside if there's already 5-6 players chomping at the bit to play this...
WRITE KAY WRITE
...But a small part of me is going "what if I played a polymorphed/half dragon offspring from a dragon slayer-dragon couple who fell deeply in love, and is just now figuring out How To Dragon."

/LONG BUT RESPECTFUL SIDE GLANCE AT FIRE EMBLEM/BREATH OF FIRE/LEGEND OF DRAGOON.
Phas|DippedOut
Saturday afternoon/evenings are pretty good for me
Phas|DippedOut
... looking more at the actual lore I had another character idea that might actually fit more easily than I'd thought
Phas|DippedOut
she's basically paladin software running on bard hardware
sailor bii
a lot of my time is already booked, so I probably won't end up a player, but it's neat to see what other people are thinking of doing
WRITE KAY WRITE
I'm tilting towards Paladin because that'd combo alright off of "dad or mom was a dragon slayer but decided on a different career path, I'm following in their footsteps."
raspberrydrink
playing a half dragon is an option yes! but sadly there haven't been dragon slayers on the islands in hundreds of years
raspberrydrink
(not to say they might come back)
raspberrydrink
but one couldn't logically be one of their parents 8(
WereAwoo
I like option 3 for the size thing too
WereAwoo
I have no particular idea as to an actual character yet, beyond the fluffy silver with red dragonblood sorcerer shitpost from yesterday
raspberrydrink
no rush!
WereAwoo
hm...but what if paladin silver, with a "hoard" of a human village as it grows?
