Section Alpha-9: Employee-Applicant Licensing Agreement (Rules for Character Creation)

Breaking the tone of the website because I can't figure out a way to say this in a corporate-friendly tone, but the following house rules are in place for this game:

Do not select Traits or Drawbacks for your character.

Alternate Racial Traits must have DM approval, and I will generally approve one per player.

Yes, I am giving out experience point rewards for fun backstories/character concepts.

Classes not on the Approved Class List are not permitted in this game, because either they don't fit the Forgotten Realms setting or due to other considerations. If you have a strong desire to play one, you may feel free to offer a justification for DM Approval.

Equally so, races not on the Approved Race List are also not permitted in the game for similar reasons. I'm open to discussion on this, but I will want an answer beyond "it makes my stats perfect to play this race".

While you're all starting out way too low level for it anyway, and this game's designed to get to level 6 max in scope, the Leadership Feat is banned. Permabanned. I don't care if you get me drunk and I say you can totally take it. It's banned and any character with it on their character sheet is not only dead, but the stats the player rolls for their next character all suffer a penalty. If you want loyal minions with class levels you have to earn it the same way anyone does: By forging social bonds with them, Persona-style.

With that all in mind, come and see me if you have any questions.
