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)

Hyper, what is the geological descriptor of the place in which Cassio was raised?

Cassio was raised in Waterdeep, as you know. Specifically, the North Ward of Waterdeep. So basically, he was raised in a giant metropolitan area.
Does that answer your question?

Well, I knew that, but what is the surrounding area like?

There's an ocean to the west and a river to the south, other than that the landscape to the east is pretty nondescript, and there are lots of major trade roads.
Better?

By nondescript, you mean grassy plains, gentle rolling hills and intermittent woodlands?

Think more literally. By nondescript I meant that I couldn't find any descriptions of it. That means there's probably nothing noteworthy.

And what I described would be what I would consider being unnoteworthy.

How many desert traders come through and how many does Cass have interactions with?

Define 'desert traders'. Are you talking people from Calimshan, Amn, Zakhara, what?

Good night, Denchot.

Hyper, any trader that would frequently or occasionally travel through any desert.

I'd ask for you to define desert more specifically, but...
TONS. I'm talking in the thousands. And Cassio has interactions with some of them, but certainly not all(Caladus, like I said, generally goes between Amn, Calimshan, Tethyr, Baldur's Gate, and Waterdeep, the three former of which are desert countries, and he sends many people to Zakhara to trade although he generally doesn't go there himself). Other than that, pretty much just the salesmen on the street who he doesn't know very well, plus his neighbors(a lot of whom are merchants in one thing or another).

Alright. Just needed to know to determine if Cass recognizes the next encounter.
