I have wanted, for a while to start a game of a certain theme. It takes place in the High Forest in the Forgotten Realms. I doubt you will need to or ever want to leave the areas by very much. The original story is, you are a group of young Hybsils and other assorted people of the forest off to prove your "men" by hunting down some Zhents that are here to collect antlers from the hybsils.

Allowed Races
Any Fey
-Dryads wont be hindered by their trees in this game nearly as much as in the MM
-Fairy Dragons are allowed... wrymlings or hatchlings though.
Wild Elves
Gnomes
Humans
Halflings
Etc
Make sure the character is either a forest creature or a ranger/druid/ or cleric of a nature deity so that the hybsils accept you. I want to start at level 1. This means that I will need to make some of the fey weaker and allow you to gain powers as you level up. You would essentially need as many levels in your race as it has ECL to get the full powers. Hybsils would simply start out without a class.

Prohibited Classes
Monks
Paladins
Wizards... That’s questionable. if you present me with a wizard character that has the rigt flavor I would allow it.
I encourage the use "Masters of the Wild" and other non-core rulebooks.

So if your interested post here include your email address as well as your desired class and race

Outstanding. That's quite an idea. Depending on what level we start at I'd like to work in a male nymph (aka Adonis/Adonai) sorcerer, druid, or cleric. He could certainly be toned down and have various parts spread out across some levels.

Looking for any Nymphs.... they're just too damn fun to play.

Hmm, a pair of Nymphs, that's just asking for trouble.

::Ponders:: Two Nymphs that could be deadly:-) But I see no reason not to just need to find SOME Hybsil PCs... that +4 wilderness lore makes them awesome Rangers.

FYI I use Monte Cook's Alternate Ranger.

Nymph Druid...

Are we starting at Apprentice Level?

Not sure of level yet. Wanted to see what everyone wanted to play before I set a level. If I had gotten several intrested in pixies or other high ECL fey I woudl start higher. But having figured out a nice toned down Nymph, and since hopefully the other two will choose Hybsils I think level 1 will be it. Maybe 1 and an apprentice level. The first one being yoru race level.

I was thinking we might be able to use your Race Class leveling system (either level in Race or Class) whatever... I'm sure you'll figure something out :-)
