Rivergate Campaign Begins…

January 13, 2011 in Campaign, Immortals' Wake, Rivergate by Fitz | 1 comment

Last night we started our once a week online campaign for Immortals’ Wake: Rivergate and once again, WR&M proves worthy of admiration. Concept to character in less than 5 minutes.

Unfortunately that’s as far as we went, but let me introduce the two characters… My friends Kevin and Mike are the only two players in the campaign at this point, but hopefully we’ll attract others over time.

Kevin created what he calls a “Marine” – basically a tough sailor used to doing battle at sea. Not your average sailor.

Name: Looyis (pronounced like “Lewis”), or Loo for short
Description: 5’3″, close cropped blond hair, full beard, scar from above left ear to just under left eye (sword cut)
Stats: Warrior: 5, Mage: 3, Rogue 2
Skills: Athletics (Warrior), Swords (Warrior), Awareness (Mage)
Talent: Sailor
HP: 11
Fate: 2
Mana: 6
Defense: 8
Equipment: Sword, Dagger (x2), Adventurer’s Kit, Iron Rations (2 weeks), Backpack, Torch (x5), Leather Armor
Money: 184 sp left over

And Mike created a sailing buddy who has some woodworking skills…

Name: Neb
Description: TBD
Stats: Warrior: 3, Rogue: 5, Mage: 2
Skills: Bows (Rogue), Daggers (Rogue), Acrobatics (Rogue)
Talent: Craftsman (Wood)
HP: 9
Fate: 5
Mana: 4
Defense: 8
Equipment: Adventurer’s Kit, Backpack, Woodworking Tools, 2 sets of clothing (1 normal, 1 travel), Bow, 20 Arrows, 4 Daggers, and Leather Armor
Money: 166 sp left over

These two sailors have just disembarked on the docks of Rivergate’s Docktown and are going to figure out what they’re doing next… when we meet again next week.

So there you have it. We’ve started! Let’s see if we can continue the trend and figure out what kind of trouble Loo and Neb may get into in future sessions.

Immortals’ Wake: Top Ten Things to Know About Rivergate

January 12, 2011 in Campaign, Immortals' Wake, Playtesting by Fitz | No comments

With a new online campaign about to start, I thought I’d provide a few tips and hints to get things started for my players.

Top Ten Things to Know About Rivergate

  1. Rivergate is divided into two major sections by a 20 ft high seawall simply known as “The Wall.” West of the Wall lies Docktown, sometimes called the Darkside because some areas are in perpetual shadow. East of the Wall lies Uptown, which comes to life with the sunrise.
  2. The Open Market is open sunrise to sunset every day above the Wall but not every merchant may be available every day in the maze of stalls.
  3. Somehow, the Reeves, the Goons of Docktown, or the sisters at the Temple of the Mother probably know what’s going on or who to ask.
  4. The Magus will offer you knowledge and/or magic items at a price, but may choose not to help you.
  5. In case of emergency, the warning bells throughout Rivergate will ring. Bell ringers are stationed throughout the town and will relay the alarm until it is heard Uptown and Docktown.
  6. The Drunken Demon is Uptown’s least reputable establishment.
  7. “The Pearly Gale” recently docked and several sailors and passengers disembarked with wild tales of Secundus, the new colony far to the northwest. Some appear haunted by their experiences.
  8. Uptown, the Rebus Crew has laid claim to a rash of recent burglaries. Reeve Lelas seeks any information that will lead to their eventual arrest.
  9. Dockmaster Dyn seeks independent help with a small matter of disappearances along the docks.
  10. Talk of Demons recently has gained the attention of a small contingent of the Order of St. Greggor rumored to be on their way from the Grand Basilica of the Mother in Belan’si far to the southeast.

Beyond that, make sure you grab the main rule book for Warrior, Rogue & Mage from the Stargazer Games site.
