New Campaign Tout

[Dungeon Master]

Being the dynamic go getting guy I am... lol

Ill be starting a new D&D campaign in the Autumn, based in the Calimshan Desert. This will have the Earth analogue of something akin to the Arabian Nights, so Ill be looking for semi-Arabic character types with a smattering of other races as well.

At the moment Ill be looking for interest in Realms III and maybe a character idea or two. If enough people want to play Ill take it further, again it will be based in the Forgotten Realms in 1373DR and will use 3rd edition rules. So if your interested PM me or reply on the thread and Ill start my evil DM planning. Ive put out the same announcement on Harv's board, so please reply to one, Im a simple man.......

Cheers
Paul

As I said on the other board, you kept that quiet Yeah go on then.

You can count me definitely in ;D

Well as I said young Tom was something of an inspiration, though Id prefer having the Shinning South sourcebook.

Reading Races of Faerun gives some great insight into Calimshan, itd be interesting to see wizards and priests that have focus on fire spells. nIt could also be interesting to see a human party. Though some genasi (blood of genie's or efreeti) may be allowed.

Anyway, its currently an idea. If I get enough ayes, then Ill look to creating the campaign and move on from there. Theres enough evil genie, mummies, etc to fill a campaign .

Calimshan Knights? anyone?

[Zeric]

I'll have a look and see if I have the Shining South on PDF... When I get home and if so, I'll share it with you over Live Messenger.

[Dungeon Master]

Cheers that would help. Im sure I had a copy somewhere?!?!?!

Yeah, you can count me in

[Dungeon Master]

OK thats the usual suspects.

Phil
Harv

Now I will be looking at Calimshan desert and the Jungles of Chult so you get arabian and pulp adventures. Chult has dinosaurs etc, so roaming ruins could be good.

Stick Roland down, we can work on him

I know everyone reads both boards, but this is what I wrote on Harv's board to add some more colour in, give an idea what Im after.

Ill be starting a new game in September, the reason for announcing it now is that Ill have time to plan and write. My other two campaigns are basically written till the end of the year. Tweaks and rewrites aside, so Im looking for another RPG challenge.

The campaign Im envisioning is an Arabian Nights style, set in the south of the continent of the Realms. You know Alladin, Ali Baba and the forty thieves, that sort of thing. Evil genie's. Mummies. Etc.

Places like Egypt, Arabia, Morroco. I may even go for the odd westerner as well, maybe a character from Waterdeep or something. Id like to also keep non humans at a minimum, just to try something a little different. Though I may throw in the odd Genie cross-breed as for a bit of variety.

Also, as the usual suspect are playing it would be nice to see a little step outside the box and play a different class than you normally do

Hey Paul,

I checked my hard drive, and I've got The Shining South on PDF. I'll add it to a sharing folder and leave WLM online (connected) and you can download it from there.

Anyone else know what he's talking about? No, I thought not...

[Dungeon Master]

Tom I have a copy of Shining South now, but it doesn't detail Calimshan.

Harv, I have sandstorm too!

Im on a 4 week countdown till my holidays. So if I can have peoples ideas and thoughts on the thread in the Calimshan Nights board that will be great.

Thanking you all greatly
