Game: OSRIC2e

Group type: Online 

Experience: Veteran, I have been DMing since 2008.

Location/Timezone: The timezone is EST.

Schedule: The group plays every Saturday at 7:30pm EST. 

Roles sought: I am looking for 3-4 players 

Game style:  There will be a healthy mix of everything, combat, roleplay, exploration, politics, and many other things! A lot of roleplay, exploring and combat, many things will come from this campaign.

Additional info: 

So, to start off, the system I am using is called OSRIC2e, (Old School Reference and Index Compilation) this system is a system of its own, but it is a retro remake of AD&D; it uses and has a lot of the same old school feel to AD&D, but it is an amalgamation. It uses the THAC0 system from 2e, so, it combines two of the older systems from back in the day.

Of course if you are familiar with THAC0 and 1e, this will feel like home, but if you are new to older games, that is okay as well, I have read everything over and I have sheets and cheat sheets as well once things get confusing. If you have only played 5e, or have played AD&D or 2e in the past, I will still explain as much as I can to you to help you. This new system has a lot of freedom with it, yet it has a lot of rules, be warned!

If you are still reading and are interested, please feel free to check out OSRIC2e here. I will provide you a copy of OSRIC2e and I will go over it as I said before!

Now, onto the hook and the good stuff!

Hook:

With a yell of pain, the clash of steel and a battle rages on; the group of adventurers here have entered what has been labeled as level one. Yet, they were beset by tiny scaled looking creatures, they were brandishing tiny blades, and just slaughtering people. The first group to ever enter was murdered, how did kobolds end up this high to level one? No one knows, but many groups have made it past level one, the max they have been down was to level 5. This group was just one of the thousands of people that wish to test their luck in the dungeon that has been labeled Avernum. The call of pince (coin) is the main driving force, mapping the dungeon is also another thing that pays well.

With the disappearance of the Moccish king when the Crysais Jewel shattered and when this accursed dungeon came into existence on the Moccish capital, thought to be in the dungeon somewhere, even if he is dead, his people still search for him. With the ultimate goal of finding the king and the reward of just about anything the finder wishes, many flock every day to this dungeon in hopes of making it deeper into it.

Yet, all of that happened five years ago, it has been five years and the former kings people is still searching through the dungeon, looking for him and collecting the Crysais shards inside the dungeon. Level 5 is still the max, but many people are pushing the boundary, and even a base has been established in level 5, the level was said to have been empty rooms that looked like a castle interior. Many folk who make it to level 5 end up trying to head for level 6 to map it out, maps of level 6 are worth more than gold these days. There seems to be a lull in progress in the dungeon, until rumors of people finally coming back alive from level 6 reach the land.

A sense of adventure is spread like a plague throughout the land again, and you are one of those people who heed the call to explore the levels for untold riches. Be warned though, world relations are tense, so you may not have to be careful of what’s only in that dungeon.

Way We Play: I use Lets Role for the VTT; rolls will be handled here, and since we will be using a new system, the sheets will be held on pdfs that you will turn in to me. We use discord for Voice.

Levels: Starting at 1 and ending at 14.

Additional Info++: Before session zero takes place, I will interview all players. Be ready for a voice chat! I am very ‘Rule of cool’. I like to give my players complete freedom of choice in my story, what you do changes the world, and the world will move without you. What you do influences the world and you can play and be whoever you wish to be!
