Question for anyone who has answers

[God-IX]

My friend has thought up a game...it is interesting..he has been working on it for a long time...he wanted me to post it here to see what you guys thought..

It takes alot of explaining..but...

Actually...to make it short..I will just get to the point..kinda..
It is like a normal multiplayer game, except on paper...you roll die, move, fight, and roll die to see what you get from the monster..equipment..etc..Much more than that..but to shorten it...

there are some problems with the way he is doing it, but he says that the major thing he wants from you guys are the characters..

he doesn't know what characters to put into it..

he wants a variety of people...I gave him some examples..like you can have a race..and then "sub-classes" such as tactics..but not exactly them..

I told him, humans, elf, dwarf....thats basic..if anyone thinks of another major race, let me know..

Also....now the sub classes...

Such as Baulders Gate: shadows of Amn...those of you that have played it..

they have sub classes...like the "Necromancer" can be a variety of things...
That is what he wants..but he has no clue WHICH classes he thinks would be a "fair" variety and what skills they would have...such as the skills have to all be different in a way..just to put a creative spin on it..and also like the game..after a certain level you can choose to switch character classes

If everyone followed what he needed...just post what you think would help...

Post as many character classes that you think, and major races..and which area they would be under in the major races..like..

Necromancer : human only..and what brnches off of that like...summoning...disease...etc....

PUT SOME THOUGHT INTO IT

If I got anything wrong..DarkAssassin...correct me...

Humans, elf, dwarf, Half-Elf, Hafling, Orc, Half-Orc, Gnome

Indeed, not a bad idea, here. Some major races (some of which have been mentioned): Human, Orc, Elf, Half-Elf, Half-Orc, Gnome, Dwarf yes, but if you want creatures as well there are many options, from Dragon to Ogre.

When it boils down to professions: Warrior, Barbarian, Necromancer, Wizard/Witch, Defender, Ranger, etc.

A game like this can leave the player with numerous options. Another suggestion could be to let the player decide on his/her own, from doing some research or whatnot, as to what kind of race/profession he/she wants to be and then have the person in charge decide if it is suitable for the specific game/storyline thats about to be played.

Sorry for the double post, but iff we have people pick thier own rofession, we will not have the spells ready and type of euipment, and the damage, and what weapon he can use..etc..see what I mean?

This game sounds alot like dungeons and dragons...lol

I'll think about it and I'll make a list of what I think and I'll post it as soon as it's done....might not be for a day or so.
