This is basically the same game as the one that has been running for quite a while, but it will be all official material, no house rules or non-rulebook sources of any kind, and I may enforce mandatory characters if things get too far out of hand (TRF has said that things were getting carried away in the other game). I also want chracter and OOC dialouge to be better managed, in other words don't fill this game up with a bunch of meaningless chatter (If all you want to do is talk about something, do it in the other game). New players are always welcome, and in fact encouraged, even if you don't own any of the books or know any of the rules. If any new players want to join, see the other game for rules, give me a race and class, and I will take care of the rest. As soon as at least 4 characters are made, this game will begin. The module I am using is a DCC, known as "The Black Pearl" (and I don't mean the ship from Pirates of the Caribbean)
O: "So, let us see what we have here..." He examines each character. O: "...a priestess with the lexicon of a sailor....... a vampire that is pure of heart....... a halfblood of strange origins....... the son of a faceless man and a heartless woman....... a child of the wind with gender insecurity issues....... and a monolithic Dwarf."
"Shut your mouth, or beak, or whatever the hell it is, Mr. Ocax," Cassio says, with genuine anger for once. "You described everyone else by who they are. Why did you define me by my parents?"
O: "For in every other aspect of your life, you are no different than every other human. You are individual in contrast to the crowd, yet find yourself like every other; you are violent, yet strive for peace; you exude greed in building your own wealth, but would give it all away for the life of a loved one; you are just another man, the only thing that sets you apart is your past. That is why I described you as such."
Cass is by far the most normal of all the characters.

Cassio is silent. For the record, that statement right there cut him very deeply.
