Some Important Information:

We are probably going to play on WeekEnds 20:00 Brussel Time.
Your Base Health is 1 + the points you have in Constitution. This is the total amount of times you can be hit.
You have 56 points to hand out, players who play La Salle have 65
Please upload your story and your points + equipment to Pastebin.com and send me the link. Don't share it with the others.


Greetings friends,

This is a new topic just for the Tabletop Roleplay Game, as I expect to write some stuff here Razz

So currently we have 7 players:

Icurlybear
Maarten
bendem
Franckie18
Yannis
Critically
SwaqqCoryn

I'm currently writing a custom story but the base story is very simple:

The Story wrote:It is the year 1684. It has been over a year since La Salle and his ships arrived in the Mississippi Delta. During the first voyage there had been some problems, but now that the settlement was up and running, the future seemed bright. Since the war with Spain was still raging, the French King was eager to support the colony and sent money and supplies to the settlement. A regular exchange between the colony and the homeland brought several new colonists while others decided to leave.


The settlement is named after the starting point of the expedition: La Nouvelle Rochelle and in it live around 350 settlers from all over Europe, but a big part of them are from France.

La Salle's messengers returned from France with new orders from the King, expand the colony. La Salle, by now named Governor of the new Colony sends out a small group of people up the river to explore the land and find a good place to create a fort in honor of King Louis. One week passes without any information.

La Salle, worried with the missing company, sets up a new company to explore the river and hopefully find out what happened to the first one.  

The company consists of 5 people, who don't know each other. They have arrived on different days and with a bit of luck may have seen each other while travelling through the settlement. This is the first time they really meet.

This is the beginning of my story.

Now to the rules and the character creation.
The Rules:

Character Creation:

If you want to take part, tell me here, and if you have already done your character, send me a PM with your character and his/her story. I will try to find a day where we can all play Smile[/quote]

Franckie read the rules and found it fun. He needs 11 points to play, and first roll a 9 ... but he has 2 points in social skills. Franckie can thus play !

Will there be a forum-based version (instead of IRC) of this in the near future? ^_^

And how are you going to keep the dice-thing fair? Wouldn't it be more fair if you would roll the dice?
(Franckie did really roll a 9, though. With one die/dice*. True story. I've seen it myself.)

* that's a whole different story... http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/167104/singular-of-dice
As I'm a non-native speaker, I really need Maryam to help me out on that one... :'(

Well, usually this is done in Person or via Skype, but I think that IRC suits it as well for now as the interaction is faster. For the firum, I'll have to see how sucessfull the IRC one will be but it will be harder since the reaction isn't immediate.

bendem has offered his help in making a bot for dice rolls, a 20 sided dice. But don't worry, I will also roll some dices for you, especially during Actions where you shouldn't know how much you Need to get it right.

(Say, If you want to identify a woman, I'll have to roll the dice myself without you seeing it because then you would know how much you would Need to roll to know if it was right. If you would openly roll a 15 and I would tell you "You are quite sure that she is the richest Person in the entire world". However, since you saw that you rolled a 15 you know that isn't true and that destroys the world perception so instead I roll the dice in These situations.

All the People who have confirmed that they want to Play: Please send me your character and tell me when it would suit to Play the game. I'd say, the first session should take around 2 hours, maybe more, but 2 is the Minimum.

And don't worry, if there are People who can't Play at the time we set it up, or if you want to join later on, we can create a second Group that goes after La Salles Group in their search, and so on.

So do I spend 1 point to get one 1 point in Naval Skills, or do I get the point only in one of the sub areas such as sailing?

Based on the document MCKitkat linked to, I'd say the sub-areas.

Sub Areas. The classification only helps me to find which category that skill belongs in in case for an Action or a dice roll. Smile

I already helped both Franckie and Maarten with their character creation, if you Need help, ping me on IRC or PM me ingame and I will gladly help you out.

As a reminder: Don't share your Profile with anyone except me, we want to Keep it a mystery since you don't know the People you are travelling with.

My character:

Si je ne me trompe, 56 points.
voilà si y'a des gens curieux ou d'autre qui veulent garder le mystère, c'est en spoiler.

Normally players shouldn't get that information, only the GM

Also remember that besides the 56 points you get 4 for free on your character's native language, 1 in Reading&Writing and 1 in the Constitution characteristics.

As long as you did not click on it, everything is fine. He did include these points however.

I'm just lacking your character and Franckie's Skill distribution, then we are set and ready to go on adventures.

I have a free constitution point ? I didnt knwo that, going to edit.

Why can't we know about each other character ? I set it in spoiler if people want the surprise but for the "players" in general, it's quite important to have a group with some kind of synergy... if we make 5 thiefs, or 5 healers it will be quite boring :p

Having sailed together across the Atlantic, dodging the Spanish, harboring at some Caribbean ports and then travelling on to Texas, it would make sense to know something about each other by now...

... however, it's up to the Raconteur's discretion to share what you can and can't know. Wink (For example the background story, but not the exact split in points.)

To answer both of your remarks, here is the official Story:
It is the year 1684. It has been over a year since La Salle and his ships arrived in the Mississippi Delta. During the first voyage there had been some problems, but now that the settlement was up and running, the future seemed bright. Since the war with Spain was still raging, the French King was eager to support the colony and sent money and supplies to the settlement. A regular exchange between the colony and the homeland brought several new colonists while others decided to leave.


The settlement is named after the starting point of the expedition: La Nouvelle Rochelle and in it live around 350 settlers from all over Europe, but a big part of them are from France.

La Salle's messengers returned from France with new orders from the King, expand the colony. La Salle, by now named Governor of the new Colony sends out a small group of people up the river to explore the land and find a good place to create a fort in honor of King Louis. One week passes without any information.

La Salle, worried with the missing company, sets up a new company to explore the river and hopefully find out what happened to the first one while continuing the mission.

The company consists of 5 people, who don't know each other. They have arrived on different days and with a bit of luck may have seen each other while travelling through the settlement. This is the first time they really meet.

Can you pick up skills or characteristics during the journey or does it stay fixed for the whole adventure?

You will pick up skills during the journey. It depends what you did. If you constantly used your sword, then you improve it.

If you start fishing it may take a while until you catch sth but after some try and error you get the handle out of it and gain 1 points in fishing.

Just a quick question:

Is anyone here willing to be the Game Master of the same Game, in order to allow other players to play and maybe experience a different story with different characters ? The current game with me as Game Master will continue as normal but I'd would be interesting to have another round with another GM.

PS: The next session will be on the 21st of March, Saturday at 20:00, Brussels Time.

I'd be interested obviously Razz

As I have stated on IRC before I'm currently looking for a new game and I have found quite a few however, there is one system that I particularly like so far as it allows us to use the same system with different stories and settings. I'll keep you updated on it.

I work on an alternate game then.

It will be a medieval fantastique kind of genre. We'll be using either Dungeon'n dragon 3.5 edition rules or 5th edition, probly the 5th one if none of you have an argument against it.

I'll be using this website : https://app.roll20.net/home
Free to register, free to play, free to create your campain.

Why is this website good ?
You can add background music when the group join an area, an encounter, en event.
You can roll. Any roll. /roll 20 +3 for example.

there is also video and audio option if we want to. (I'll understand if you don't)
