Help Me to Help You....

Greetings everyone,

Since I have become a DM I think the best adventures I have run have been based on requests by the players themselves, with them providing background details of their character and what they hope to achieve. So, I would like to extend this invitation to anyone who is interested in having an adventure ran for their character to send me a PM. There are a couple of guidelines to abide by:

1. Your goals have to be realistic. There will be no emperor of Thay or becoming a god campaign. Even lesser goals will be denied, like Autharch titles or becoming a Red Wizard without going through the trials.

2. Make your goal interesting, proved details and background information but leave enough wiggle room in the story where the DM can surprise you with the outcome.

3. Be prepared to handle not getting exactly what you want. If I think of a more interesting outcome than what you had in mind, I will go with it. I'm not out to screw you out of a good time, (far from it!) just trying to make your time more interesting.

4. Be prepared to handle the consequences of achieving your goal. It could have far reaching effects on your character. In other words, don't be surprised if your one shot adventure turns out to be an ongoing campaign of sorts.

5. Be patient. Depending on finding free time and coming up with ideas, it might take a couple of weeks between the request and running the adventure.

If this sounds interesting to you, pass the DM a note. ;)

Greetings everyone.

Bumping this thread as this is the direction I would like to take the weekly campaign for awhile. I know many of you have some goals and backstories that you would like to see developed with your characters, so this is your chance to shine! I have heard from some of you but if you have not already done so please get your ideas to me by sending a PM. I would love to hear them.

The general rules that I originally had in place will stand, so please review them above.

Adding to this, even if you do not have an idea I will be lurking around as a DM every Monday and/or Tuesday night at 8:00PM CST to run an adventure and add some flavor to unsuspecting PCs. So, do not be surprised if your usual dungeon crawl springs to life and leads to even greater adventure!

Thank you everyone and have fun gaming. :)
Pluto is still a planet.
