Labyrinthe Forum _ General Campaign Information _ Dave's new campaign that needs a better name...

Posted by: DavidMartin Nov 2 2009, 10:29 PM

In a moment of madness, I agreed to ref a mini campaign starting on December 20th. Luckily, I Shanghaied Justin Carroll to co-write and co-ref it.

For all of you hoping to try out your uber characters, you are plain out of luck, sorry... It will be a starting-from-1st-level extravaganza. We are currently toying with the option of keeping it separate from the regular Laby game world until the end of the campaign. But we are open to suggestions from interested folks.

There will be no restrictions on what people want to play.

It will also have a better name than the one that Jo has given it, but we need to have a think about that one... names are important. Rest assured, we do have a plot and stuff.

Dave M (and Justin by proxy)

I -think- that this needs editing, as I believe that Dave and I are reffing a little campaign starting in December, as it goes.

Good times people. Good times.

Any ideas on theme?

Might help with picking out one of the many concepts we all have

Posted by: Martinj Nov 3 2009, 05:52 PM

Also any vague ideas of follow up dates and how many adventures the campaign will last for?

I'm very keen too.

Few concepts kicking about I'd like to try, and a low could be fun. :-)

Would have loved to play this, but its the same day as the Lilley/Maggs extravaganza...

Posted by: DavidMartin Nov 3 2009, 06:09 PM

Generally, I think JC and I would both agree that we're looking at High Dark Fantasy... read into that what you will. We don't want to force anyone's roleplay, and will happily accept people playing what they want to play. No limits.

We also don't want to give away too much about the theme, because that would spoil its intended fun.

It is not necessarily linked to any current ongoing plot or theme, such as Imperial/Myron invasion/Baronial etc. Nobody will be overly advantaged or disadvantaged by their class/race choice.

In terms of dates - I think something like one every 6 weeks or so. Currently unsure as to the number of adventures, but we'll get back to you all on that one.

Dave and J

It is now looking like we will be changing the start date of this, as it clashes with stuff - will keep you all posted as to the new dates.

Dave

Posted by: TheOG Nov 4 2009, 09:23 PM

I'll be interested. I am up for another from 1st campaign. Quite enjoying the one I am in currently. Dates and stuff for me can be an issue due to shift work, but with planety of notice I should be ok.

Cheers

Unless they choose to play a spirit warrior, of course.

I mentioned it to him again the other day

Need to finish Brighthaven
The plot was good, the dungeons fun and different.

Posted by: JustinC Nov 5 2009, 04:29 PM

Just a wee note - The date of the first of these has moved to January 10th, for lots of reasons.

Jo should be putting it into the event diary now. Mark, this should be long enough to book time off? We'll be looking at the next one in mid-late February, date to be determined and put up shortly.

If people have specific questions about 'can I/should I/would it be bad if...' then feel free to PM me or Dave. We'll discuss and get back to you with answers asap.

Thanks all, sorry for the confusion.

Dave and Justin

I have booked on to play, are you going to do it Mark? This will fit me wanting 2 new char's smile.gif

'O how Evil/Good are the party going to be. Seeing as Good is weak, Evil is better

Posted by: draco Nov 9 2009, 05:10 PM

I would quite like to play a scrout that i have been thinking about but i don't want to be a of a million of them. Also i think a good mix of good and evil with me in the middle is always fun but a mix is generally the best.
Looking forward to this as it will be my first campaign.

I think Scrout is a mispelling. Did you mean Scrote? or Scout?

I've booked on for January.

Now gotta think of something to play?!

When you say it's not connected to the main Laby game does that mean we can't refer to existing cities? Cos one of my character ideas was a beggar but that relies on city benefits.

Will it also affect guild memberships?

Also.... do you intend on running specfically on sundays? Cos I can't do Saturdays :-(

It will not be connected to any current ongoing Laby plot, but it will still be an adventure set in the Labyrinthe game world. So the cities will be there giving you beggar benefits if that's what you choose to play.

Guilds will also be available for you to join.

We hadn't really discussed the Saturday/Sunday options, but we're happy to negotiate dates for later adventures so that everyone who starts the campaign can play the later ones.

Im also in Kirstys 'can only play Sunday's' gang for what it's worth :-)


Posted by: DanM Nov 11 2009, 08:14 AM

Well I'm booked on, and to keep the missus happy, lets say saturdays are better

I mean Sundays, obviously

Posted by: MattJ Nov 11 2009, 09:49 AM

I'm booked on and am pretty much happy with Saturdays or Sundays

Cool... now, what to play...

I'm tempted by something in the warrior bracket. Maybe a Kensai. An Axe wielding kensai...

True Story.


Posted by: MattJ Nov 11 2009, 11:11 AM

If my points app goes through OK I'll also be playing a warrior subclass.

Matt

Posted by: JustinC Nov 11 2009, 11:22 AM

We've asked Jo to create a new thread thingy in the campaign section. More information will be posted there in the next week or two.

Cheers,

Justin and Dave

Yep, this is plenty of warning, I think the Unity is on the 9th so it's good for me to book the whole weekend off. Will go to the office later to try and book the dates.

Cheers
