So hey! I want to run something tonight, and since i just spent some $160 on 5e books, it's gonna be 5e. But what it actually is, hasn't been decided. So if i can get four people before 7:00pm CDT (GMT -5), to cast a vote and express interest, we'll do the thing that wins. Option A : Is the absolute D&D classic, Keep on the Borderlands. In which there's a base of operations, and there are areas where adventure could happen. It's that simple. Option B : Is the Lost Mine of Phandelver, from the 5E Starter Set. In which there's an actual narrative that takes place, but we'll really just see how far we can get. With option a, the only real constraints on character creation would be that your deity (if you have one) should be from the Greek Pantheon on page 298 of the PHB. With option b, you'll have to go here and pick one of the backgrounds and personal goal s to use for your character. You don't have to use the rest of details on the premade characters unless you just want to. But the details that tie your character to the world have to be there, (i.e. if you take the rogue's background then you have an aunt in phandalin, who you're trying to hide your business from, etc.)
