This wiki will be for posting about a campaign I am dungeon mastering for some friends. I do not plan to give blow by blow reports of the game or a fictionalized version of our planned weekly sessions. I will focus more on what adventure options I placed before the group.

I very much look at role playing as a group creation effort. To this end I offered up three principle options for the DnD game. The options came about due to the roles classes are assigned with the new edition, leader, striker, defender, and controller. The first option for player character creation I presented was a simply straight forward game. Players could choose from any of the classes and races in the game. The second option, all divine. The players would only choose from the divine classes, Avenger, Cleric, Invoker, and Paladin. The last choice, all primal, with an emphasis of races geared for the primal class. No real surprise given the name of this wiki, the players went with the all divine choice.

The next choice was what kind of game did they want to play in, episode dungeon of the week style, or an over arching plot. They went with the overarching plot. Next, what theme did they want for the game, horror, good old hack and slash, over the top action, war or a suggestion of theirs. Here they thought about the theme for a bit, but went with war. One more thing I stipulated about the divine class choice, they would all be following the same deity, they picked Pelor. The one thing which surprised me about character creation, three out of the four took human as their race.
