So... the website is up, and ready to roll. This topic is any suggestions for the page: What to include, what to change, and so forth.
Alright... a few things to start off.
Here's what the site is going to include, and what it'll be used for. Basically, the rundown:
1) Everyone post a character thread for their own PC. You should include your physical description and maybe a brief summary of just who you are, but it shouldn't reveal anything about your backstory that people would instead have to find out in RP down the line. These character threads will be where your journals go, and anyone can basically post there to discuss events related to your character, be it his exploits or whatever. Bonus XP will be awarded for journals and similar things, and this will be detailed in the Rewards thread.
2) Feel free to make your own posts, and discuss whatever you want with your fellow players! I'd like to get this board rolling and active, but only you guys can do that ^_^
3) As soon as I figure out how to make one, I'll be setting up an Eberron calendar on the site, tracking the events of the game and all that.
4) Here's a big one that my past players liked: You can play between sessions! Basically, in instances of downtime (when you guys are in the city or whatever) between sessions, you can go by a play by post, to simply RP amongst each other, or pursue minor events like going to shops, crafting items, carousing at taverns, and so forth. Essentially, this allows these events to get more time and be played out in more detail than they would in a normal game, while still allowing us to focus on the main action in the actual sessions. It also gives you guys a chance to RP throughout the week, instead of just on Tuesdays.
Posting guidelines for the PbP will be up soon.
