The Campaign Builder's Guild

For the Glory of Gilbany

In Gilbany,  amongst rumors of civil war in Agantha and the death of the Anglyrian King, the lords are summoned to Stormthanolt by the King of Gilbany. There in the ancient fortress gardens all of the dukes, counts and barons as well as the Knights of Gilbany and representatives of all allied orders will convene for council. It is expected that King Malverei of Iledya (who in the event of the death of the King of Agantha is second in line to the throne) will aid his older sister, the Queen of Kangdemar, in protecting a weakened Agantha from the eastern onslaught of the Wogir tribes of Angorad and Halavia. The coming autumn harvest and following winter leave little time for action, and it is expected that the King will ask the lords to secure the kingdom and the path to Anglyrion to ensure the safety of
the crown and the Rosewyn line.

Quiz for available times: http://www.doodle.com/ihye5kyatvuece5v

Can't be bothered to enter so many dates.

If a date is set many days in advance, I can usually make any days from 8 PM Eastern (Maybe even 7, but that's REALLY rough and it"d mean I do AFKS from time to time for cooking etc) to at least 10 PM Eastern.

I'm not saying I'm in the game necessarily, but I'd like to be part of it. I like the other Haveneast and if I can secure a place in this group as well I'd sure as hell like to.

I've been thinking playing a Sorcerer. The illusionist/mysterious type maybe even with a level in rogue for some backstab. Just thoughts. Depends on what the others play. A Witch always sounds ultra cool, too. I play a melee in the other game so I figured I could play a caster in this one if I was given the chance.

Either of those characters sounds good. I guess what I should be asking in terms of scheduling is: are any of you unable to make a game this Friday night, 8 eastern?

I thought one of the main reasons we were making new characters is so much of the other group couldn't make it.  :huh:
If we're going to have almost the whole group... why are we doing this again?  :grin:

I am pretty sure I can make Friday.  :)

I had set this game up under the assumption that neither Nomadic or Magnus could make most time slots. It turns out I had misunderstood how much Pym was available. If you guys would prefer, we can hold off until Nomadic is also available and just play the Aath campaign. If not, we could even just have Nomadic join this game when he's available again - I'm open to suggestions/preferences from the entire group. Depends on how long you guys are willing to wait for the game. :)

I might receive my new computer Friday, I wanted to set it up. I could, perhaps, do the bare minimum and have it ready for the game?

I still would have to have my character ready, though.

I'm free most Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesday and Thursdays from 7pm EST onwards.

Hmm. Possibly Pym. Can you make Friday Hippo? Can anyone make Thursday?

Thursday like tomorrow? Should be fine for me. I'm busy this whole upcoming Friday, Saturday, Sunday at our local gaming convention, but Thursday at 7/8pm EST works for me.

I can make it!

It would be prudent to say that I can't make it tomorrow. Mostly because I don't have enough time to make the sorcerer before tomorrow 8.

I can't be there tomorrow (Thursday), but Friday is potentially available.  My usual disclaimer about not knowing until the last minute applies.

Personally, I'd just as well wait for Nomadic to be available and continue with Aath, rather than end up having two unfinished campaigns later.

We shall do that. Hippo, I will find a place for you to use your character.
