<span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: impact;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">INTRO &amp; INDEX</span></span><br/>Greetings and welcome to the starting portal for the<em><strong>Emaeril Campaign Setting</strong></em>.  Before I go further, I should say from the very outset that the campaign idea isn't mine (at least not in whole), but rather one that I co-GMed and helped with from time to time with a dear friend of mine.  Unfortunately, as is the case with most mortals, his time came to its fruition almost a month past, so this is my tribute to continuing a project which I could say is a life's dedication to D&D and roleplaying in general - Emaeril having started way back since 2nd Edition Dungeons & Dragons (if anyone was wondering how the world history got up so quickly, the playing of chapter 1 started way back in 2nd Ed. period).  ;D<br/><br/>So here's hoping he attains his dream of becoming a (Rogue 1/Fighter 4/Ranger 3/Psionic Warrior 12) in the next!  ^-^<br/><br/>The Index for all the threads will be posted below (as they come up):<br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Where your journey began (Interest Thread) (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=123850.0)</li><li>Step into the World of Emaeril (IC Thread) (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=123989.0)</li><li>Scribe within the Party <span class="bbc_u">Journal</span>. Kind of like the party's IC OOC. (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=124624.0)</li></ul>Right, now to get to it.  As has been said in the recruitment thread, this is a scenario where you have been quite literally, and brutally, plucked from your home here in this world and unceremoniously tossed into another.  Waking up you find yourself in a completely new body (just a catchall way to build your ideal avatar, even if it is meant to be a complete surprise to you  :P ).  More than anything else, this is a game about your place in the world and your survival.<br/><br/><strong>Let's begin by a brief description of who you were (paragraph at most), and then a physical description of what other players will see upon recovering from the harrowing ordeal.  The conditions are:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Desert wasteland</li><li>Very chilly</li><li>Dusk lighting</li><li>No clothes (let's avoid sexuality at this point  :P )</li></ul>It would be helpful to me to know how much experience you have with the Pathfinder system and RPing in general, as well as your expectations and what you're hoping to get out of this game (if you would like it not to be public, feel free to PM me).  As your GM it helps me to better provide for what you want (I'm no mind-reader after all, but oh, how I wish!)<br/><br/>As should be obvious, character's don't land in the world with all their skills ready for adventuring, and to begin with they're clueless.  After an introductory pre-chapter, characters then have access to the skills and powers available to their callings.<br/><br/>But by all means, let us know what kind of character/class you'd like to play as (or edit it into your current post if you're already posted).<br/><br/>Also, how many players are familiar with the D&D supplements<em><strong>Heroes of Horror</strong></em>,<em><strong>Tome of Magic</strong></em>, and<em><strong>Weapons of Legacy</strong></em>?  Try and keep all your information in a single post (kinda like your profile, edited/modified as necessary) unless a different post is warranted.
