Rocking the life
You'd have to have lost all sanity to even consider running a D&D adventure for more than one edition at once.
I have apparently lost all sanity.
I asked and received permission from the staff to run this thread, where I gather people to join my madness as I run the published adventure Murder in Baldur's Gate for you. Actual gameplay will take place in a Discord server, but character builds and discussion can be done here.
Behind the scenes, I will be running monsters' health in percentages, with hits taking off a portion of health depending on the edition and the damage the attack would have dealt. The published adventure has files with monster statistics in all three editions, which is part of what inspired this madness. Characters using cross-edition spells on each other will be evaluated on a per-spell basis.
You may submit characters of 1st level from D&D 3.5, 4, or 5. Six characters in total will be accepted, though others will be held in reserve. You must name the sourcebooks you are drawing abilities from. I reserve the right to reject any character or any ability from a sourcebook that is not core, though I am unlikely to actually do this unless I deem it too likely to cause disruption to the playing experience or I don't have the book (and I have most of the sourcebooks on my Kindle, so you don't need to worry there).
Players should preferably have not previously played Murder in Baldur's Gate. Knowledge of the general Forgotten Realms setting or other Baldur's Gate works is unnecessary, though it might help you get some of the references. Players should have a basic idea of how to play Dungeons and Dragons, although this adventure takes place in a city and not a dungeon.
Finally, if someone with the ability to make tags wouldn't mind making a tag "d&d 4e" and tagging this thread with it, I would be grateful.
