You gotcha... is anyone interested in playing a game in Aelwyd? Would be one of three different types of campaign...

1 : Fey. All players would be faeries/Güerin-Aelwyd. Would basically be 'fight off the Aequii' campaign, but with a twist. Probably around 5th level start because faeries have LA.

2 : Güerin-Aelwyd. First level start, probably druid/tribesman mix with some fanatics. Again, 'fight off the Aequii', but once more with a twist... in a campaign set among the magical woods of western Aelwyd, who knows what could happen?

3 : Aequii. Again, first level start. This would probably require me to write up a whole lot more background for the Aequii, but as I'm planning to do that anyway, and there's all the roman era stuff to draw upon, we should be okay. This has a big twist on the Güerin-Aelwyd 'fight off the defilers' thing, and you'll get magic items, magical transport, and formal magic (principle mage, see Goromor.)

If you have any more ideas, or want to join, just say. As a lot of the class/race stuff isn't finished yet, I'm not going to ask for character sheets straight off (as you'd only have four choices for class and three for race) but this is to gauge interest.

I've never tried play by post before, but it could be interesting.  I'd be willing to give it a try.

My vote would be for Güerin-Aelwyd.

I've never tried it either... but I'd give it a shot. I vote for #2 as well :D

Wensleydale

Whoo! That means all I have to do is get the druid finished... :D and the bard song list, and the other stuff. The Güerin-Aelwyd is probably my favourite, and not just because it's less work for me. Although I do appreciate the fact I don't have to remap and rewrite most of europe and africa :P

'K, I started the druid, wrote up the basics of weaves. You two fancy any of the classes particularly?

I have never done PbP but I would be interested in #2 as well ;) I  fancy the ranger, rogue or wizard. Also, what are the races? Imperial? ELf? .... half-vampire? :D

Golem mentions a few of the races/classes in his thread.

I'd definately be up for playing, although I can't guarantee absolute regularity in my posts. Sometimes I can spend days doing nothing but cruise the web, while other times I can barely spend a full hour on the computer all week (damn that social life of mine! damn it to Hell!)

If you're alright with my possible irregularity, I would vote for either of the non-Aequii game types.
all hail the reapers of hope

i'll ditto that

@Pheonix: ill check it out

EDIT: SOunds awesome. I would like to play a "roman" legionary (using your new class!) if that fits right ;)

I'd like using a Druid... I'll wait for you to complete it, but in general I'm very fond of the idea of a celtic druid (Also, I hate using barbarians :P)

Wensleydale

Well, if we're doing option 2...

Wow, everyone wants to be a druid? No bards? Or Tribesmen? *sobs*

Of course not, Kindling. :P you can be the tribesman. :D No, seriously, what would you like to play?

So-Keher, that would be nice, but unless you can come up with a decent backstory about why a legionary would be working with Guerin-Aelwyd... :P

Wensleydale

Oh-kay, everyone. The druid's pretty much finished, the bard... well, you can guess the other song layouts yourself from the examples. All I need to do now is the augmentations...

So-Keher

Hmmm, um...yeah. Would an arcane spellcaster fit?

lol, I didn't know PK was going to be one as well... I chose druid cause I like the idea of the celtic one and because bards and tribesmen (barbarians really) = big NoNo for me lol
