Judges Guild slow-mo crunchy old school pbp -RECRUITING

Potentially adding a new pbp game here at goblinoid. Post frequency would only be 1-2x a week.
This would be just Labyrinth Lord, and the module would be the infamous old Judges Guild adventure 'Night of the Walking Wet' written by Paul Jaquays.
This module is dripping with macabre gonzo. The foes are sporadic and unevenly powered, thus you would actually roll for your starting level.
The treasures can be plentiful. Pulp dungeoneering.

Roll 4d6 keep best 3 die, and keep in order for stats.
Roll 1d6+1 for your starting level
Roll 3d6x10 for starting gold

Recruiting characters, especially those with an interest in writing

I'd very much like to get in on this. My schedule hasn't allowed me to play (just DM) in eons, so a slower game like this would be perfect. And I've never peeked inside that adventure even once, which would make it extra cool, not knowing what's inside! Just let me know what to do next! 8-)

Awesome, welcome to you both, and Jefferey feel free to also post a character in this thread when you have a moment.

I will send a PM to Dan P to get the game board set up, and look to post more background info etc soon.

Hopefully also a few more players will join in the meantime. I've never run this adventure before and it looks pretty sweet :ugeek:

This may not go over so well...

My first name is Jeffery, so every time you say that I'll be thinking it's me :D (I'm sure I'll work it out soon enough)

Hey, with those stats you can be just about anything you desire..(edit: but this is straight up LL - so Monks don't exist yet). Glad you can make it foolsjest and I think this game will even fit in with your schedule.

Maybe we can refer to Jeffery as 'JSC'? I'm sure he's been called worse :)
