Welcome, new adventurers! Perhaps you have recently taken it upon yourself to start adventuring, or perhaps you are an old-timer who is just extremely rusty. In any case, you have the potential to grow into something great! You seem to have happened across this merry little tavern/inn, which rests just off the path of the road you were traveling on, and decided to stay, for it seems there is no shortage of bounties or friendly faces to join. Here you could put together the beginnings of your empire, or perhaps the people that will become legendary heroes one day. But, for now, you are simply some person or thing that has practically zero experience adventuring. Anyways, kick back, form your alliances or enmity, go on quests, and enjoy what life you have left.
The Tavern of New Destinies is exactly as stated above: A tavern for level one adventurers. The rules will be clearly stated below, but here is a summary: Freeform DnD campaign.
Rule 1. You have to make a completely new character for this, and they must be level one.
Rule 2. You got 3 character slots. So make them wisely.... because the only way you can replace one with another is by one of yours dying in a quest. (Preferably not on purpose)
Rule 3. Not really a rule, but something to state to clear up confusion. Must use experience to level up, and anyone who DM's must distribute xp as if it was a normal dnd campaign. So don't worry, you will not be stuck as a level 1 forever.
Rule 4. Per the normal tavern stuff, [1gp] censor for cursing. Substitution words are allowed.
Rule 5. Please no murderhobos or excessive EDGINESSS. While some EDGE can be cool, overdoing it can make the character quite dry, so at least put some effort into the personality rather than "ORPHAN TAUGHT THEMSELVES HOW TO KILL BY THEMSELVES JUST TO SURVIVE, GREW OBSESSED WITH IT" and the like. While I ask for this, a couple evil characters sprinkled in are okay, as long as every other character isn't the literal devil in evilness.
Rule 6. No one and everyone is the main character. Please no Mary Sues or anyone who has a humongous plot revolving around them. Everyone should get a good chance at the spotlight.
Rule 7. Conflict between characters are encouraged. There are no divine protections, so expect consequences. Fights will be cheered on in the tavern, and characters can kill other characters, provided one has the ability to do so. If a final blow should not be fatal, the character simply gets knocked out. "Fatal" shall be the decision of the player whose character got knocked out.
Rule 8. OOC baggage left outside, this is a given. Take it to DM's or other threads.
Rule 9. Simple. Enjoy.
Rule 10. You may start with 1 uncommon magic item. Other than that, the only other things you should have is normal starting equipment.
Rule 11. Rules are liable to be added or changed to be more clear, so please keep an eye on this post, especially if it seems like people are acting different.
To ensure you have read the rules, please somehow include the word "Barnacle-Toed-Frog" in your post.
If you would like to apply for mod (which would allow you to make unlimited (up to a reasonable amount, and please pm if you want to add one) npc's to decorate the tavern, and it would make you a dm, so you must make at least one quest (xp and money are required rewards) for people to go on every so often), please PM me.
(It is assumed the bartender gets you what you order, and you pay for it)
I do want this to be able to survive without my supervision, so any problems must firstmost be taken to any mods, who are listed below.
The Tavern of Destinies. The sign is made of birch with intricately carved letters.
From the outside, the tavern looks a bit like a massive log that had toppled sideways. The windows were made of bright stained glass in the pictures of galaxies from some where beyond the stars. The front door is made of thick pine with thick iron handles in the shape of a perched bird. A bell small golden bell sits above the door, tolling when you enter.
The inside of the tavern is neat and tidy. Tables with four seats a piece, a fireplace with wood that burns brightly in its hearth, and a bar. There are two side rooms and a set of stairs near the left side room that go up.
A tabaxi sits behind the bar, feet kicked up on the bar table. They have marmalade and white spotted fur. Their body is lanky with long limbs. Their ears are almost like a rabbit's, big and wide, while their tail is nothing but a stump that flicks back and forth. They wear a vest made of beige leather, brown breeches, and a set of matching sky blue ankle warmers and a scarf. A piece of hay sits out of their mouth, twitching as they roll it between their lips.
They open a single sky blue eye as they stand up. They grin at you "well howdy there! My name is Harbor Bird, but you can call me Harbor. Welcome to my little tavern. We got rooms and food if ya want it. You came to the right place if yer looking for money though! all kinds of adventurers come here because we always have quests on the board." he says and gestures to a bulletin board with layers and layers of papers on it. "Take a look at it and im sure you'll find something that's right for ya!"
A short young woman with twin shortswords strapped to her left hip walks in. She is about 5' 4", with copper-green skin and long hair the color of a burning sunset. She wears leather armor with a faded symbol of a broken dragon scale embossed on the back.
She walks to the board and glances at it. Without diverting her attention, she speaks in a soft, melodious voice, "Thank you, Harbor Bird. My name is Gladys of the Fire Oaks."

"What did this 'Michael Kylon' do to warrant such a bounty?" She continues to hold both, looking at them in hopes of finding more details (such as: is the bounty Alive or Dead? Where's the house?)
