Hi there and thanks for hosting the game. I have no experience with C&S but I have obsessively read the players guide over the past day or so. Lots of very interesting ideas in there.
What kind of party composition are we looking at by the way? Especially without strictly defined classes it might be a good idea to think ahead a bit. Personally I strongly favor spellcasters in any game I play, but I don't mind playing something thief/rogue-ish either.

Thank you for the invite! I've been interested in Crown and Skull for a while now, and I'm excited to finally get to play. Like @Aline, I tend to favor spellcasters. I rolled up a jolly, well-fed dwarf named Jormund who found a mysterious red crystal and finds himself called towards...something!

I don't mind a few variations here and there. Do you have a hero you like to pattern your character after? Or a backstory you like to use? The entire party can be magic users, or any combination. Part of the magic of Crown and Skull is the flexibility to create interesting content and characters all at once.

Alright, giving this a shot. My idea for the character is a young witch who was sent out in to the wide world by her coven to prove herself by acquiring worthwhile spells and treasure.
Tinkering with custom spells really is fun. I think the custom spells are far better than anything the default spell list has to offer but that might be by design.

Summons a cloud of abysmally foul vapors. Thankfully it quickly dissipates in to nothing if the caster stops focusing on the spell. Anyone caught in the cloud will be strongly compelled to get out of it ASAP and not enter again unless the alternative is certain death. The vapors are so vile, just about any living being will avoid it. Creatures accustomed to very noxious environments or anything that does not breathe will tolerate the cloud without adverse effects.

Nullified by (Anything that does not breathe or care is unaffected) -3

Using a key carved from bone, the caster can make it open any non-magical lock. This process is quiet but takes a bit of time. The key will crumble to dust when done.

The caster drops to the floor and appears dead for all practical purposes. Only a proper examination by a physician or something that can detect magical enchantments will reveal the deception.

I like it!
I'm going to make individual character channels you can post your stuff in.
One of the factors that needs to be discussed and agreed upon is starting point. You can be from another hometown, only you have to start in the same place - whether that's Gardenburrow, Rivergate or Slimshire is up to you guys.

Gremlin you can use Character 2
Aline you can use Character 3

Any starting location would be fine for me. Are we starting out on a quest already or do we meet in a tavern?
Apr 3, 2026 3:52 am
I have to get everyone's character up first and we'll see where we start exactly...
Apr 4, 2026 6:16 pm
Aline, it looks like we fizzled. Unless you want to play solo with me as a DM, then we have to consider this a loss for now. I will post this again at a later date. Unless we can get characters made or run a solo for you, then it's a done deal.
Apr 4, 2026 9:50 pm
Yeah, I was starting to worry about that as well. Very quiet in here. Maybe everyone is AFK over Easter?
That being said. At least @Gremlin might still be around. Right?

Good morning! I would like to make an elf warrior. My huge limit is rape, and mauling of corpses.

I am against rape. Mauling, like wounding a corpse? what is that about? All my games are PG13!
Apr 5, 2026 5:07 am
Still here and still interested in playing, just busy with Easter and family stuff. Used the char gen to create a towering human equiped with a single, huge weapon (Warhammer).
I'll place it in the character channel as well. Is there a character sheet for C&S in GP?
