Hello I am trying to get a group of players together for the game module "Desperate measrues" The time is flexible and is undecided atm Heres the info if your interested, its a bit of a read so stop now if your not!
You are about to step into a unique and deadly situation. Your PC has been imprisoned on Death Row. Several other death row inmates will be in the prison with you, so at least you won't be alone. How you handle this situation will be entirely up to you. This is a short player guide to help orient you to the scenario.
Location is Trailsend, Damara in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (FRCS). You are on death row in the Trailsend jail. You have only a couple of days before you are to be executed. Condensed from the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting: "Trailsend is a Large City of 14,116 run by Baron Donlevy. Trailsend is usually the first city that visitors to Damara see, several businessses cater solely to finding unusual employment for adventurers." Trailsend is a trading crossroads. Your character can be from anywhere, have done anything. If you don't know the FRCS, don't worry, what's above is all you need to know from the setting to create a character.
Players will all level 3. On entering the module, your PC will be set to third level, stripped of their gear, and given jail clothes and an emote wand. (To use the emote wand, drag it from your inventory to a quickslot, then click on the quickslot and follow the dialog choices.) Your PC arrives in an out-of-character (OOC) "Holding Pen" area. You may talk only about OOC things here; please do not share information on your PC's background with the other players. The DM should hold a short orientation session in the Holding Pen and allow for questions. Once the DM transfers you to death row, you will be in-character.
Desperate Measures is different each time and is customized based on the PCs' backgrounds. The DM will require you to submit your PC's story ahead of time. You need not write a book, but the more elements you can include in your PC's story, the richer your experience will be. I suggest you look at the following list of elements for ideas.
Possible background elements:
-- MOST IMPORTANT: What was your PC's crime for which he/she was imprisoned? Was he/she guilty? How did events unfold?
-- What were the circumstances of the PC's capture?
-- Who are your PC's enemies?
-- Friends?
-- Family?
-- Important acquaintances?
-- Were any of the above people involved in the circumstances surrounding your imprisonment?
-- Where is your PC from? How did they end up in Trailsend?
-- Deepest fear.
-- Biggest regret in life.
-- Best memory ever.
-- How scared they are of dying.
-- Ever killed anyone? How did it make your PC feel?
-- The worst thing they ever did.
-- How trusting or suspicious are they?
