I could set my alarm to wake up so I can join this at 5am. Although I am not so sure that I am able to brave a 4am wake up. :)

That said, if people want to/can start earlier, do so. If it is possible for me to jump in when i come online, then everyone wins. :)

((actually sat mornings probably won't work well for me as I only have a 3 hour slot even with an hour earlier start; folks probably want something beefier/more wiggleroom))

(( perhaps unknown to average readers is that Samuel didn't get permission to post this or to bring "adventurers" to the Silver Spires. Folk who aren't welcome there normally [e.g. followers of evil deities, especially traditional enemies of Selûne like Shar, Malar, and Umberlee] won't become welcome there because a random dude put up a flyer and skipped town.

Also, Ith, it's Saturday evening for U.S. times. It's Sunday morning in Europe. ))

Out of Game:

Heegz is starting this for Saturday nights around 11PM EST. So it should be ongoing. :)

He has mentioned setting up a low level group for WHL; also a mid level group & high level group for BG.

If high levels are not an issue i'll try and be there as well.
If it gets crowded I can bow down.

Out of Game:

Definitely all levels are going to be handled, this first meeting is a general call to get people involved. From my conversations with Heegz this is going to be an ongoing thing taking up were he wanted to start a while ago. :)

We are looking to make three groups and have missions to do outside of the Saturday sessions as well.

As for differing faiths and such, I am chatting with Heegz about that. The Red Knights are of course LN and if people can work with that, we can work with them.

As to the time this is kicking off, I would email Heegz and ask if you can join later/earlier. I am quite sure the wonderful and fabulous Heegz would work with you.

This is of course all subject to our Lord of Strategy and Mayhem: HEEGZ!. I am the simple PC side of things trying to help coordinate some fun for all to have!

There's a wide variety of people who are inoffensive to a random follower of the Red Knight who are not welcome in a Selûnite temple-- and it is important to note that the presence of these flyers does not change that circumstance.

The rest can be worked out in character, but I don't want anyone to have the idea that there will be a protective bubble of metagaming because there's a forum post about it.

Was going to show up, but I was up all night preparing for PnP and then slept right through the alarm at 4am. :/

Who knew you needed more than 1.5 hours of sleep?

Also: A non-directed side note on all that schtuff Zelk is throwing around with deities, alignements or whatever and people rubbing up against polished moon-pillars.

I am sure that characters who are devout followers of deities who doesn't work well in social situations with Selûne don't want to be loitering in a pompus moon-palace anyways. I really don't think it's that important to make such a big deal out of pointing that out. Then again, Zelknolf might be correct in pointing it out because you can't be sure that people in this community know how to roleplay their characters correctly and needs to be instructed on how to do so.

Anyways, carry on!
