I’m not gonna let the possibility of a DnD group die easily :P
Do either of you have some folks who are also up for a campaign?
@GlytchMeister @Heucuva8 @Mrs_Bones
If it’s kid friendly, I have a 12 yo that just wants a DM!
I can do that. It looks like I'll be running things, so if nobody objects to kid-friendly... that's cool.
During the week, Tuesday works best for us, along with weekends.

Re: 12 y.o.
…
How kid friendly?
Movie rank G, PG, PG-13, R?
Because G basically can’t have combat, and PG would ban almost everything that can be used in combat… and I know TTRPG’s aren’t only combat, but I like having at least /some/ combat
@GlytchMeister he is a barbarism necromancer…so Pg-13? Lol
Haha! Barbarism Necromancer...
I'm not laughing at you BTW,I know you meant Barbarian, but it's just so funny sounding that way. 🤣
I MAY make a character and join you guys. Assuming we get to play, any particular Races/Classes/Homebrew content you all want to use?
@Heucuva8 @Thumprhare @Mrs_Bones @glassramen
If we’re playing Fate… I have no idea how combat works, so not really.
If DnD5e, depends on party comp, but the characters I have pre-made are bugbear, warforged, and tabaxi
I just wanted to use the FATE game creation worksheet for session 0, to figure out what kind of world/game we play. 5e is fine by me.
You all know me, I'd like to have an Undead race to explore their unique position between Life and Death.
@Mrs_Bones probably wants an Owl person. 🤔
@Heucuva8 @Mrs_Bones @GlytchMeister @Thumprhare I'm afraid I will have to bow out on this one. I really do have too much going on. Hopefully the next one I'll be able to join up. There's a chance I may be able to drop in at some point later if the game is still going if that's alright with everyone, at least for a sporadic few sessions here and there if life is permitting.
@glassramen @Heucuva8 @Mrs_Bones @Thumprhare
Guest character! :P
@GlytchMeister @Heucuva8 @Mrs_Bones @Thumprhare I can definitely do guest appearances!
(I may or may not be some flavor of undead)
Use the Detective background and make Connor from Detroit: Become Human? 🤔
Maybe I could make Dorian Gray? 😆😂
@Heucuva8 @glassramen @Mrs_Bones
I’ve never played that game, so 🤷♂️
The reason I say the warforged would be less freaked out is because they already have a different pov on what counts as a “being”
So they’d be more open minded toward sapient undead, though they’d have similar strong opinions as your average living person toward necromancers using the dead as puppets and pawns, because that violates autonomy and whatnot.
@/Thumprhare
Just a thought...what if we used the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats from Fallout, instead of the Str Dex Con Int Wis Cha ones? I've always thought that system was much easier to use and more intuitive.
🤔🤔🤔
Paging @otter272 for TTRPG discussion. They're looking for something NOT D&D, but maybe they can find something fun when introduced to people from #CoSoRPG and #CoSoTTRPG?
@Heucuva8 @glassramen @Mrs_Bones
I mean if you can build the system for dice and it makes sense, sure
@Heucuva8 @glassramen @Mrs_Bones
I’d be concerned about playing a game system that is basically in beta and is actively being rebalanced as we play, because I don’t have much experience
I don't mean we rebuild the whole game, just rename the stats and maybe shift which stat handles what bonuses for skills, attacks, etc. But it's just a wild thought.
Ex: Perception does in place of Wisdom, and would determine range attacks.
Endurance is Con, Agility is Dex (minus ranged attacks)
and Luck would be it's own thing. (What's the odds you HAPPEN to guess the password?)
All else ,same.
As for dice, they're normally rank 1-10 so use a d10?
🤷🏻♂️
@Heucuva8 @glassramen @Mrs_Bones
Changing to 1-10 would change dc’s, skill progression, the effect of proficiency bonuses… that would need a bunch of rebalancing.
Shuffling and renaming skills is really just fluff, now that I think about it, so that’s probably fine
@glassramen @Heucuva8 @Mrs_Bones @Thumprhare
Hmm, one and a half undead characters and an Owlin so far. I might go with the warforged Artificer. I suspect my other characters would be a bit freaked out :P
