Group concept looking for interested players
-
Ive been thinking about a group concept and thought id put the idea up here to see if anyone is interested in creating a new character to join.
The group name is currently 'The champions of the four signs' but that aint set in stone, just based on an idea of four omens that led my own character to decide to battle evil.
The idea is for a group of characters crusading against all forms of evil, ranging from undead to demons and lycanthropes to witches wherever they hide as well as locate and unearth holy artifacts to be used against said evil forces, the hierarchy would be very loose and rather than a leader major decisions would be made based on what the most prominent/respected members at the time decide (rather than an official leader).
The idea would best suit driven avenger type characters that were looking to eradicate such evil rather than study or research them. the idea could apply to pretty much any race/class/alignment combination though it would probably be best suited to non evil as there would be a pretty good chance the group would work with paladins at some point (though i wont rule out evil group members, only crazy necromancer researchers are likely not to fit in).
I will likely be recruiting in game too (so long as the whole idea doesnt fall flat on its ass) but I was hoping maybe one or two other players looking to start a new character might want to join in on the ground level.
As an example i'll post a little about my intended character for the group.
Dawnbringer Alexander Sotiris
As a young man new to adventuring and doing battle with evil, Alexander is a little naive about many things and most of his years were spent in a monestary with the only things for him to practice battle with being a training dummy.
He is wary of hierarchy and arbitrary rules as he sees these as taking up too much time and distracting one from the task at hand, though he is most wary of aligning the group with a faction that might have a political agenda as he views all politicians as rather suspect.
Rather than preaching in Lathanders name he believes that one should lead by example and that people will be drawn to follow the morning lord out of respect of the deeds of his priests rather than mere words.Anyway thats my pitch, send me a pm or post here if your interested or have any questions or ideas on the group.

Isn't this a cross between the EO and the KotMS?
-
Maybe their goals are a bit like the EO yeah. the main difference is that they come from all walks, operate without a lawful mandate and characters could be from a wider group rather than being an organised force trained by a single group. not sure about the KOTMS as I never played when they were a faction.

Just what we need. More fanatical do-gooder zealots…
-
I dont really have zealots in mind, or even necessarily do gooders. Im just thinking of an adventuring group that is interested in battling evil with the chance for pretty much any race/class/alignment combination as ive already said.
We have groups that are connected to factions and are interested in collecting bounties we have groups that are mercenary in nature, I just wanted to give a third option is all.

You should research some of the existing factions run by players IG too, there's one that's already rather like this idea in most ways. ;)
