The City Without Shadows

I am hoping to start a campaign that has it's settings in Menzobarranzan. For those who don't play D&D or havn't read any of R.A. Salvator's books, Menzobarranzan is the city of the dark elves (drow) in the setting of the Forgotten Realms.

Some questions and answers:

What is this going to be about?

The story is you get to choose whether you are a male of female drow (male being the second son and female being 3rd daughter). You House starts out ranked as #17, and you have to help raise that rank to the top 8, at which point your Matron Mother is on the High Council (confusing? I'll give much more information after I get ever spot filled up.) Basicly, you try to survive while trying to better your house.



What possisions need to be filled?

The following possisions need to be filled:
Modeler**
Skiner**
Triggerer (Spells too)*:

*I will also be doing some triggering
**Willl be needed later in the proccess (after terrain is done (this is going to be a large project))





What will your(me) work consist of?

I will mostly be directing and envisioning, but I will also probably do some terraining and a little bit in triggering. I will also be doing the story and plot, but will share that part with the rest of the team.



What is expected of me?

You are expected to give your oppinions, get work done in a timely order, and to have a good time interacting with the rest of the team. I look forward to the good times we will experience in the future.



Is there anything else?

Nope.



This is a list of the current team members and their jobs.


ShadowFang: Leader, Terrainer
Meh_man: Co-Leader, Concept Artist, maybe skinner
CommonsNat: A little of everything except moddeling.


I hope to have all positions filled by 9/25, because I am eager to start. A reminder: All details will be given out about the campaign when I get my team selected.

Thank you for your time,

Aww come on! No one is up to the test? Well fine, if no one signs up by the 25th, I guess I will have to go on by my self and claim all the glory when I put it out for the public! But seriously, I wouldn't mind some help with this. Its going to be a very large project.

You shouldn't expect anyone to say something right away. Give it some days first.

All in all, the story and ideas sounds fine, nothing too special, but it sure grabs my attention ;) But like usual, I won't join up any project.
Good luck though.

Alright then. Its gonna be almost 100% RPG. Many different possibilities to get the same solutioion. Everything that you do has an effect in the world. I could do it on my own with help from forum questions and model requests, but not only is solo a daunting task, you don't have anyone to crit. your ideas!

Okay, I guess I can help, but I still have to make time for my own campaign :\ . So if you want me to help, I will. Sounds interesting though. Oh, by the way, I can do anything but moddelling, and I'll even be getting that soon too.

How r people not signing up for this!!!!! o_O
I'm in, I can do concept art for now, and m learning to skin, and might try modelling but I can't make any promises... Even though I'm still a newb(not drawing, skinning) and at this point in time my warcraft won't launch I want to help get this off the ground, cause this is like the BEST idea ever...

PS: I can help with authentication of facts cause I've read every 1 of SAlvatores books... except Sojourn... haven't found that one yet... anyhoo... thanks for unleashing the geek in me now I look like a dork., but I still want in...

Alright then, that means that CommonsNat and Meh_man are definatly in. Thanks for signing up guys, it makes me feel like alot of thought didn't go to waste !

P.S. I'm glad to have another huge fan of Salvatore on the team Meh. I hope you can help explaining things to those who have not yet experienced the glorious literature that Salvatore is able to write.

Well, so far we have a concept artist/begining skinner, and a part-time everthing-but-moddeling guy. That still leave the other positions open, which are:

Terrainer
Moddeler
Skiner
Triggerer

5 more day until we start up the project.

Even though the project leader and members always appreciate such a post, there are dozens of people who are annoyed by a post such as that. I'm just someone who sticks around and have nothing to say (oh, wait, I'm a moderator) but still...
I admit that the idea is good, but to call it "the best" or anything similar... no, not my style.

Anyway ShadowF... eh... Fang was it. Do you got any project experience?

I'm surprised Fladi ^_^ , usually your so positive. It's just his oppinion**(speeling).

Oh, and do you have any work for me to get started for? Cuz I can't advance my campaign until I can meet up with my friend (or until I get 3DS Max). :god_help_us:

Lol meh, we don't have anyone to do anything! The terrain must be finished before anything else is even thought up! I could use a moddeler to make drow buildings, but alas, our everything-except-moddeling guy doesn't model:\.
