All Group #2, I have a lot of balls in the air (check Pavel's shenanigans in the Baths at Crossroads).<br/><br/><strong>Hellos</strong><br/>@ihinka, don't sell yourself short. Your ability to think beyond the 5e mechanics works out well. BTW, I'm assuming that your character likes to constrict rather than be constricting.<br/>@All thanks for the Hello/s.<br/>@Crensler, the wonks say that 5e is easier than previous editions of DnD.  Regardless, please ask/inquire if you have any questions.<br/>@Ghost of Patches, I've playing DnD for five years now (started when I retired), and the only campaign that I have been in for the beginning that is continuing is an Open/Shared World game similar to what I'm establishing here. I could rave about all the benefits, but I'll suffice to say I intend that this Game will be able to outlive my tenure on Elliquiy.<br/><br/><strong>Some Resources</strong><br/>Below is a link to a table I built for a couple of folks at my other party. It lays out the elements of the 5e Action Economy (e.g., Action, Bonus Action, Movement). General action and then maps any special abilities into the Action Economy. It gives a person a cheat sheet of what the character can do.<br/>5e Action Economy. (https://docs.google.com/document/d/18WJkIET3G0JAo-bLlNqfDsJTko1gHqDG91DORDtDdvA/edit)<br/><br/><strong>About the Game</strong><br/>A few more details. The specific title of the Adventure will be Old McDonalds Farm. It is a find/retrieve something (an object, person, etc.) to help build Farms in/at/on Crossroads.<br/><br/>I went and took a look at people's feedback in party planning. Hexed, I saw you are not a big fan of social. There will be some social, but it's not a social adventure.<br/>This will give everyone a good mix > Exploration/Investigation > Combat=Social. Note some encounters have multiple solutions (e.g., Negotiate vs. fight Guards); find a guide (social) vs. exploring.<br/><br/><strong>Game Palette</strong><br/>There is not much information right now in the Game Palette (see below). I'm going to leave a lot of the smut up to individual character choice, but telling me Excited by, let's me know that I should try and set up some opportunities for things to happen.<br/>Excited By: Constriction (ihinka)<br/>Veils: non-con<br/>Lines: incest, watersports, spitting, extreme abuse.<br/><br/>
