I am against rape. Mauling, like wounding a corpse? what is that about? All my games are PG13!
Thank you

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?
I'm still here! Many apologies for the silence. It won't happen again.

I'll have my character posted to the relevant forum today.

Thank you everyone, we will start Monday after noon, unless I get fidgety and post the intro.

You may post in "Trial by Fire" anytime, but I don't expect anything till tomorrow afternoon. Very excited to begin this journey with you guys!

Nice to see this getting started.

Just to clarify. We assume our characters all know each other already?

*edit*
Also, could you approve the submitted characters so we can start posting IC?

I approved Gretel and Jormund. Those were the characters that were pending. :)

Ok, welcome to CROWN and SKULL! Thanks for joining the mayhem! This game uses a D20 for skills, there are no character stats or hit points, which is kinda crazy, and no attack rolls! Before you flip the table, and before we get into all that, your characters know each other. You either grew up in Rivergate or have met and become friends of a sort.

So, the stone-walled port of Rivergate is your home. You’re all part of a mining guild, and times are tough. It’s early winter at the base of the Stormkeepers.

Let’s get an idea for who these characters are by describing your characters in the roleplay thread. Your character is about to emerge from the fog of concept...and become a little more 3 dimensional.

I'm debating whether to make a knight, or a elf warrior, or a mounted archer of some sorts.

It sounds like we're going to be doing stuff for the mining guild, so I'm not sure how much use you'll get out of a mount. @umbraldragon ?

Also, we've started! Get yer butts in here and roleplay! 😂

Hey guys I invited another player, they said they can post on and off, so I agreed to it. We can have a more casual game, I will continue the roleplay and whoever can post, just jump in when you can. This works until we have a combat so at those times it can be a little more frequent posting as everyone will want to participate and the timing is tighter. As to quote Gremlin "Get yer butts in here and roleplay!" :)

Hi all! Happy to be here 😁
As Umbraldragon mentioned my posting can be a bit erratic but I should be able to keep a decent pace. Some days I can do multiple posts, other days none but I'll try my best to keep up and not make you all wait for me.

For the sake of progress, I never mind being skipped or the GM moving my character as they see fit.

Now all I need is a character idea...

My general character concept is a rat catcher. Not a great fighter, but a crafty and cunning person with some hunting skills
Apr 9, 2026 9:48 pm
Welcome aboard!

Welcome!

I'll submit my character in GP tomorrow morning and post in the Trial by Fire thread, dont have access to my laptop atm.

Is anyone against me using 'bad' English in IC posts?
Example says:
"Must mean sum'n bad 's about to 'appen."
I'm not yet sure if I'll stick with writing like that, but I imagine Filbur's way of speaking is not proper English and he swallows a lot of letters.

If anyone has trouble reading it that way, just let me know and I'll stop. I can understand it might be hard or annoying to read.

I don't have a problem with dialect. If I could read the moles from Redwall, I can read a little cockney.

Not a problem here, in fact, A for extra effort.
