We will be using the Paizo Pathfinder system, which has been nicknamed by many, Dungeons & Dragons version 3.75. When Hasbro moved on from supporting D&D 3.5 to create the horror that is 4th edition they left the OGL (open gaming licence) 3.5 material in the capable hands of Paizo publishing, who had been producing the Dragon and Kobold magazines on behalf of Wizards of the Coast (now a subsidiary of Hasbro). Pazio, released from it's Dragon and Kobold contract, went on to publish it's own core system, Pathfinder. Pathfinder is a slightly tweaked version of 3.5 with adjustments mainly to polymorph and combat manuever rules.
We will not be using Paizo's Pathfinder Campaign Setting. We will instead be playing in a homebrew setting called the Dragon's Dream. This setting has been carefully crafted and tested in weekly 8 player sessions since 2000. It is rich and deep in detail and should hold many intriguing mysteries and exciting adventures for new players, and veteran players alike.
We are using Proboards free forum. This means there maybe banner adds that come and go. No one but Proboards receives payment for these adds. We are administering this forum ourselves, and it should be noted that we know significantly more about story telling than forum administration. Please be patient.
We are running many players at once. This can and will lead to a few jams. Play by post games have a natural tendency to bog down a bit. We all hope that we can post as often as possible, but sometimes life interferes with our fantasy escapism. In the OCC (out of character) section a vacation notification thread will be present. Please, if possible, make a note there of long stretches of absence so that a moderator will know when to temporarily take over your character. Also be aware that on occasion your character may be given neutral actions by moderators in order to speed the plot. This will always be handled as carefully as possible with all efforts towards maintaining your character concept and continuity. Thank you for your understanding.
We hope you enjoy participating in our story, may it be long and entertaining!
