Chapter IV: For whom the bell gnolls
Semi-Ironman? Sounds like popamole
What it means is, that reloading is only allowed after the whole party gets killed. However, unlike the previous prestigious gentlemen LPing this, stats are rolled. Only once obviously, so the casualty list should be high. The reason for this is simple, I want to possibly finish this. We may still end up with a situation where it will be totally impossible to avoid getting the entire party killed and I will need to admit defeat at the hands of the temple of decline. However until that moment, we should see lots of codexers dying and/or performing feats of major
Oh and that way we won't be seeing the fucking moathouse all the fucking time.
Fucking Co8 how does it work?
Dear codexer and/or shitposter, Circle of Eight adds new content (read: more shit that can kill our 2 CON wizards by sneezing at them). Furthermore it allows us to
this LP by having additional 3 SPESHUL party members and a level 20 cap (which will never be reached, however if somebody does survive past level 10 he fucking deserves the extra levels).I WANT TO BE A MEATSHIELD!
Sure thing, just post the following:
Class(es): If you want to multiclass, outline at what levels you want to level which class. NO PALADINS (see alignment)
Race: Untermensch or ubermensch, the choice is yours
Stat priority: From highest to lowest, the roll values will be applied to the stats in the order you want them to be applied.
Sex: Prestigious gentleman or tranny.
Alignment: Must fit a TRUE NEUTRAL party. So it must be neutral good, neutral evil, true neutral, neutral lawful or neutral chaotic.
If needed add a worshiped deity, otherwise I'll pick one for you myself.
Your username will always be used as the characters name, it may be shortened if needed.
Example:
Class: Barbarian/Fighter W(lvl1),B(lvl2-7),W(lvl8-10), B(lvl 11-20)
Race: Human
Stat priority: STR>CON>DEX>WIS>INT>CHA
Sex: Gentleman
In before min-maxers start bitching about an example.
SPESHUL party members?
But of course! One cannot refuse to include shitposters and/or distinguished codexians in a LP.
The Party will be 5 Codexers. The first five people to post class/race/stat priority/sex get in, new ones will be added when either of those 5 dies. There will also be 3 SPESHUL party members (thanks to the magic of being able to swap NPC slots for more PC slots in Co8).
Vote for TWO SPESHUL people you want in out of the list below:
Andhaira, the desert ranger - chaotic neutral human ranger dual-wielding scimitars, will specialize in fighting whatever beasts are closest to djinn. STATS: DEX>CON>STR>CHA>WIS>INT
Liberal, master of thievan in the night - neutral evil Russia-hating bow-wielding halfling rogue. STATS: DEX>INT>CON>WIS>STR>CHA
BLOBERT, BRORIOR - true neutral dwarven fighter with a two-handed hammer of BRO. STATS: CON>STR>WIS>INT>CHA>DEX
Volourn, pretty princess - chaotic neutral cleric of R00fles! STATS: WIS>CHA>CON>STR>DEX>INT
Skyway, the raging barbarian of Urkanistan - Lawful Neutral half-orc. STATS: STR>CON>WIS>DEX>CHA>INT
Hiver, the white knight - neutral good protector of maidens, wannabe paladin (cleric with some fighter levels since the party is true neutral). STATS: STR>WIS>CON>INT>DEX>CHA
Chefe, master illusionist - chaotic neutral wizard specializing in illusions/summoning/whatever, high bluff and acting skills. STATS: INT>CHA>WIS>CON>DEX>STR
Scottish Martial Arts, the everchanging. Tranny half-elf druid focusing on shapeshifting (true neutral of course) STATS: WIS>CON>INT>STR>CHA>DEX
Prosper, the mad gnome. Chaotic neutral bard (see a pattern here?) STATS: CHA>INT>STR>CON>DEX>WIS
Kingcomrade, the kaiserin monk. True neutral. STATS: DEX>CON>INT>STR>CHA>WIS
Black Cat, the self-exiled human sorceress. She will be casting stuffies and charming. STATS:CHA>INT>WIS>CON>DEX>STR
Cleve, prophet of ITZ, Lawful neutral dwarven druid. STATS: CON (titanium bones!)>WIS>INT>CHA>DEX>STR
nomask alt, elven templar of the north. Evil neutral tank fighter. STATS: DEX>CON>STR>CHA>INT>WIS

Lyric Suite, the manliest of elves. Evil neutral marskman ranger. DEX>CHA>INT>CON>WIS>STR
It is possible to suggest other speshul characters based on codexians. However, I may find the suggestion to be shit if it lacks LARP-based parody (or for other reasons) which will make me ignore it. Oh and you will need at least two people supporting your idea for it to be considered.
If somehow I roll stats too low to fulfill a class requirement (CHA for sorcerers etc.) using the stat priority you picked, I will roll them again up to 3 times. If the 3rd attempt still produces a too low stat value, that character is out and the next person's character gets in. The same applies to the SPESHUL characters. Only in their case the next character is picked based on the amounts of votes obviously.
tl;dr - 5 codexers, if one dies he gets replaced by the next person to post a character after the last one. 3 speshul characters, if one dies you vote on the next one to be added.
