I'll try this one. It presents me with a challenge and that I like.
Good work Lu! Can't wait to see how this plays out.

I'm in for sure! Sounds great, Lu!
Just a comment, you last bullet says "Be warned: Here we Dragons". Should that not be "Here Be dragons"?
On that topic, check out the next book by my all time favourite author... The Great Zoo of China

I have sooo many plans for you guys! Start thinking of your characters! It can be anything from a princess to a troll or goblin! Or even a pirate :)
A siren sounds cool!
I will ask you guys for pics of your characters as well, to help visualize it :) So google away :P

The Siren character Lilith has a phasewalk ability, in which she enters another dimension for a short time, which effectively makes her invisible and allows her to move very quickly through the normal dimension. She also has a phaseblast, a small explosion that occurs whenever she enters or exits phasewalk. The phaseblast may have elemental effects to cause extra damage - fire, electricity, acid.
Maya, who appears in the second game, has a phaselock, which allows her to lock enemies in a bubble where they can't move (giving you a chance to shoot them more easily). Her phaselock can also have elemental effects - fire, electricity, acid, slag - to cause additional damage.

Have I missed the character sheet you were going to draw up Lu? Or are you still working on it? no hurry!
It is that time of the year again where we say goodbye to our themed challenge (Game of Thrones, previously Harry Potter, Parasol Protectorate & Terry Pratchett)
D&D departs from traditional wargaming and assigns each player a specific character to play instead of a military formation. These characters embark upon imaginary adventures within a fantasy setting. A Dungeon Master serves as the game's referee and storyteller, while also maintaining the setting in which the adventures occur and playing the role of the inhabitants. The characters solve dilemmas, engage in battles and gather treasure and knowledge. In the process the characters earn experience points to become increasingly powerful over a series of sessions.
How this will work:
* There will be a Dungeon Master (aka me) that will plan each characters adventure, tell the story, give the rules etc.
* Your character will be made by you, and the way you make your character will determine your adventure. - I will design an adventure for each person individually.
* There will be dice rolls, randomizer, trolls, puzzles and lots of books!
* Each task will lead you to read a book, and each book read will advance you onto the next task, which means you won't be able to plan for this challenge.
* However, because of this there will only be 15 books that need to be read!
* Your adventure may or may not crisscross with another adventurers quest.
* This is a choose as you go challenge, thus your choices will dictate how hard your next required read will be.
* I will keep the tasks as easy as possible and make sure there are lots of options of books that you can read per task. However, there will be a few hard ones depending on your adventure.
* Be warned: Here be Dragons!
Interested?
Then sign up before the 15th of November. Just post your name here and say you are in (However, please understand as I will be making individual adventures, it will take me a lot of time, and I don't want anyone signing up that won't atleast try to make an effort to participate and/or has not been an active member of this group!.
On the 16th of November I will give those who signed up the tools to make their own characters.
This challenge will then only start on the 10th of December.
