OK, Threshold of Ages is not going to be a running concern, on or off-line. Therefore, I propose to start a new campaign - I'm posting this outside the ToA filter so that new people who'd like to play can get in. It'll run every second Thursday, approximately, and assuming one or more residents of the house in Capel Street are playing, it'll be there, otherwise here in Ranelagh. It'll be D&D, somewhere between 3E and 3.5 - mostly on 3.5, for which I'll provide the PHB. Alternately, you can get your own copy for just short of 30 euro in Fourth Dimension, the gaming shop in the basement of Third Place, which is open at weekends. Plug plug.

The setting will be my own campaign world of Davon, now becoming familiar to some of the players, I hope. You can read some about it in [livejournal.com profile] davonian. It'll be either a current-era setting, in which case events in it will be subject to the epic lead campaign, Age of Legends, or in the era 4600 years previously - read about that in [livejournal.com profile] olddavonian. In the 4600BP era, the existing campaign, Kingfisher's Way, will probably not have much impact. The kind of campaign - urban, wilderness, plot-heavy, plot-lite, combat-focussed, angsty, political, or what-have-you - will be decided by the players. If the players decision on the kind of campaign doesn't fit either time period, we can possibly open a third one, although I'd prefer to avoid that.

I'm looking for players who will make it to most games, have at least a basic grasp of the rules - particularly if thier characters are to be spellcasters or psions - can concentrate well for the few hours on a Thursday evening, and can deal with some degree of out-of-game material, be it email or lj. I'll want background information for each PC, and before we start, we'll work out how the group came together. My games tend more toward plot than not, so that'll have to be taken into account too.

So, who's interested?

Yeah both of us are interested, you want new characters?

What level?

If we're playing in the era 4600 years before the present, yes. Time travel back is not possible, except in very very exceptional circumstances. If we're playing in the current era, then it's sort-of possible, except that the old characters are too powerful for a new campaign. They have histories attached, which may not fit a new campaign, and they have duties where they are. If you're willing to drop back a good few levels and suffer some form of amnesia, then we can talk. I'd recommend a new character, though - I have some material here from the new Unearthed Arcana book that I think you'll like a lot.

Such as?

Well I'd be interested - I'd like a chance to play something completely different.

What starting levels are you looking for and any particular directions from on high?

I'm thinking that starting at about 3rd level might not be a bad notion. Other directions from on high will wait until we see what kind of a game we end up playing, about which I shall post a poll shortly.
