D and D, elder scolls edition

kirk_lewis_ESO

You feel a light surrounding you. You're suddenly sucked into a space that seems to go on for miles. Clear open sky and an endless crystal sea under you. You hear a voice "Gather your party, steel your heart. The world needs heroes". A mirror appears in front of you. "Define yourself (Pick a race, pick a classic class, allocate skill points. You start with 20)".

It's a Dungeons and Dragons strategy threat.

Smol elf.

I don't want to get hurt so I'd max out my defense, 20 points into Vitality.

I'd go with the big shield + one handed class that attacks by smooshing things under their shield.

Go for the eyes!

Not for nothing, but TES started out as an AD&D homebrew. I'm not sure if the actual rules were ever published, though.

kirk_lewis_ESO

I was hoping people would just go along with the game, but oh well. I asked for too much from humans. I have baldurs gate 3 to look forward to, so theres that.

Well, OP isn't that different than that interrogation you used to get in TES games with some annoying dude asking you abiut your race and skills and such. Back to the good old days it seems.

Ysbriel

Well Two Human Paladins in the front and Two Elven Mages in the back, no need for clerics since paladins got heals, we might come across a stray thief to join us for lock picking

Edit: My A D&D : Eye of the Beholder bis formation.

Tryxus

Always wanted to learn how to D&D, but no idea how to start... I did get Baldur's Gate EE for Xmas, so I'm gonna give that a try soon.

Anyways: Half-Elf, Druid, most points in Wisdom?

D&D, PvP edition:

All of the sudden time freezes. Everything is delayed. You see a crowd of people running towards you with insane speed. They seem to be jumping through time. As they approach, you try to move out of the way, but can't.
All of the sudden you feel a sudden increase of temperature, as 200 Fire Balls flies towards you.

* Game master now starts rolling 8d6 * 200 times to calculate damage *

If you intend people to play along then you may want to tell them it's a game for a beginning. Not to mention what exactly the rules are and what they can choose. Not everyone here will be familiar with D&D or its way of doing things.

Also mate, if it is elder scrolls, u gotta start as a prisoner. It doesnt work in any other way.

Fireball

A bright streak flashes from your pointing finger to a point you choose within range then blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame.
Each creature in a 20-foot radius Sphere centered on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw.
A target takes 8d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The fire spreads around corners.
It ignites flammable Objects in the area that aren't being worn or carried.

Once you start rolling for the guys in the second line and further back, they start hitting their own people blocking line of sight to the lone player. The zerg lights up in a massive hurricane of fire. More and more fireballs materialize from already melting hands. The screams of agony are deafening, the smell stomach-churning. In a moment, the searing heat burns flesh off bone, turns bone to ash on the ground, melts ground into glass. The player watches in silent horror, the sight of 200 deaths burned into their eyes. To this day they roam the land, a furtive, disheveled figure shouting ominous warnings that few understand: "Don't stack! For the love of Akatosh, spread out!"

(wouldn't friendly fire be FUN in ESO?)

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B2KESbIjtwHsOFgxdXhoNDRJN2c Elder scrolls DnD already exists! Its called the UESRPG and I play it every week with my guild on tabletop simulator with custom maps and I love it. Only downside is that unlike normal dnd there is a much steeper learning curb.
