Okay, so, apparently TRF wants to lose the old thread until such time as Dibs sees fit to return. So, as per his request, I have made a new thread. I, of course, don't see exactly why this is necessary, but I suppose it won't hurt anything to accommodate Turf. So, I guess this will just be a continuation of the prior thread with the old characters and we'll pick up where Dibs left off. I suggested that Noob DM this one, but being that he doesn't have any of the source material beyond what's on the internet, he declined. That being the case, if there are no objections, I guess I will be DMing this one. I won't have access to my books myself for another week or two, so if it's okay, I guess I'll be using a homemade campaign. And as far as the campaign goes, expect to see a lot of stuff that's not exactly D&D canon, because, as I said, I don't have my sourcebooks right now. Unless, of course, someone else wants to DM, in which case, I'd be more than happy to step aside. Unfortunately, I do not think that this game will be accepting any more players. This thread is here for the sole purpose of reducing clutter in the other. It will actually be a lot easier - it was getting to be a pain, navigating that other one with all the pages it had(we were almost at 4,000!). To start off, I'm going to request that we all post our sheets(I'll track mine down later) and if there is anyone who would like to DM or has any requests to that effect or which concern the next campaign, speak now or forever hold your peace. Cheers.
"I'm just around here to offer my services. We've heard rumors of monsters around taking children?
His brow furrows in concentration. "No children have gone missing of late. A few people have disappeared for a few days, but they returned. I'm afraid that whoever told you that was sadly mistaken. You should tell the same to your allies, that is, if you have any with you. I would not want you to waste your time because of a rumor blown out of proportion."
"A-Allee. Why did the woman run away from me?"
"Ah, yes. I apologize for my wife's behavior, it was impolite I suppose. But these are strange times, you understand."
"Need any assistance?"
"Are you implying I can't do my job!?!" the blacksmith roars furiously.

"I see, well i'm sorry for the disturbance, care to join me for tea?"
"Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. Is there anything I can help out with? I'm looking for a bit of information."
"Look," the smith says, breathing heavily, "I am not here to gossip like a !@#$ing housewife! If you're not here to buy anything, then get the hell out! If you are here to buy something, then snap to it already!"
"I heard a rumor on children disappearing here, and about poisoned water. Can you tell me anything about that?"
"Poisoned water?" He looks concerned. "I've never heard anything about that at all. Why do you think the water is poisoned?"
