Spawning characters

Tamerlane · Post by **Tamerlane** » Sat Aug 18, 2001 3:45 am

With the majority of people being for argyle and its persistant world. Wouldn't one assume the world to be quite large and therefore how would the spawning work.

Would someone simply log on and have to walk miles to get to their chosen guild house, or can the player choose where to spawn?

The following is copied from the new Argyle site. For anyone interested in joing the BotB, since we seem to be heading for Argyle, I strongly recommend thourough examination of that site. It's pretty damn cool.

For persistent gaming players will likely start in one of the major cities detailed on our map - Arberdan, Soberdan, Argon, Hozzle, Hemdale, Shroudgard, Port Hope or the Harbor. For module or campaign gaming players will start where the adventure starts, which could be a city or the middle of nowhere. For the truly adventurous players we’re hoping we can have some sort of random starting point, so the player will never know where exactly they’ve begun.

Ack! NO! You may not shorten my name to Moe! You may drop the 'der,' if you like, but no more - under threat of pain!

Pardon me for answering der Moench but it means The Monk or at least in the context that he wants...

Cool - stopped learning German in 9th grade - got the grade "9" (13th scale) (hmm - about a B-ish (B- or B)for thoese operating with letters) - don't know how

The only reason I know it is because I read a post in which he told us what it was.

Hmmm

LOL

Are we the only people spamming, I mean posting

Xandax · Post by **Xandax** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 9:29 am

Properly - I'm working on the website now

Gott about 20 mails with characters in my inbox

Right-o, Nippy. Monk it is; but not the kind of monk put forth as Monks in D&D - a REAL monk - a man of the cloth - therefore, a cleric - as Xandax will see when he gets around to posting MY character.

Nippy · Post by **Nippy** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 9:56 am

Ohhh, a serious Monk. I believe that you would be a dual Cleric/Monk to get real spells? Or perhaps a Cleric that does not use blades...

Xandax · Post by **Xandax** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 10:02 am

Noooo - just let him be a pure cleric - we need thoese

der Moench · Post by **der Moench** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 10:13 am

I think Average Joe was talking about being a pure cleric as well ... BTW: if there is a real scarcity of us healers, I have thought I make some money off all you paladin & fighter types: "You wanna little curing? OK, that'll be 25 gold, please."

Woo-hoo! 50 posts! I'm an "Exalted Member," now!

Nippy · Post by **Nippy** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 10:19 am

Congrats der Moench! My target is 1000 before November...

der Moench · Post by **der Moench** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 10:23 am

How do people ever get numbers like 3000?

Xandax · Post by **Xandax** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 10:23 am

@Moench - I don't seem to have your character - have you PM'ed me or submitted via website?

der Moench · Post by **der Moench** » Sun Aug 19, 2001 10:27 am

I PM'ed you - a total of three times now. The first was just asking if you were the guy to talk to; the second had all my info (and you responded to this one, so you should have it); the third, sent just a moment ago, had corrected stats. Take a look through your inbox, but I can send the stuff again.
