Zodal will be acceptable, how ever, the only cleric domains in 5th edition are knowledge, life, light, nature, tempest, trickery, and war; reduces Zodal's traditional domain selection (Life, good, and protection) to include only life.

I'll go ahead and keep Requiem of Dispair as the campaign name. uh... Description... A 5th edition game set in a victorianesque world in the midst of a magitechnological revolution.

I'm okay with that, I was planning on going with the Life domain anyway.

Okay, it's up. If I screwed up in some way, let me know. But the three of us should be able to post in it now. (I also redecorated things a bit, while I was in there.)

Seems to be working fine, I was able to post in it. I didn't notice any of the redecorating you mentioned. Did I miss something?

Okay I've got most of the world brewed up in my mind, now to put it on (digital) paper.
Gonna go ahead and start getting some of that typed out, in the meantime, do you have any tips for DM tools? Stuff to make maps? (both dungeon and overworld)

I mostly steal maps from the internet. I do have a jpeg of two blank maps (one square, one hex) that I'll use to make my own when I need to.

Jaded is talking about me. :p

I'll try to get the character done as soon as I can. Much like Jaded, I'm learning a new edition, so give me a little time. Though, I plan on playing a mage.

Pretty much done except for fleshing out his history.

Ht/wt rolls
Height 66"+[2d8] = 9, wt = ht roll*[2d6] = 5*9 +175 lbs

Start gold roll
Start gold [5d4x10] = 14x10=140

I just tested out your permissions, and I was able to.

I'm not sure why you can't, but you should be able to.

The starting gold exists as an alternative to the starting equipment gained from your class and background. Also, you aren't required to roll for vital statistics unless you want to.

I have a gut feeling it was you. Welcome to the party.

Yeah, I preferred a chain shirt to the scale in the starter eq because it doesn't put his stealth at disadvantage... and weighs half as much...
