Brogg:
Marivhon! Excellent, a very good name. Marivhon the Monk, nice alliteration, or Marivhon Half-elven, very nice as well.
Well, Marivhon, since the Elder(s) Grettin and Shettin have asked that I take you under my wing so to speak, let me give you the 411 on the world of Descent in to Depths!
First off, I see that you have created a character sheet, very nice. If I were you, I would just bump that Wisdom up to the minimum and be done with it. Also, I see that you have 4 Hit Points. Not one of us rolled our 1st level HP, so if I were you, I would take some liberties there as well. That is 2d4, I believe.
Now, on the front page, you will find a link to DiD Player's Reference Page. There you will find a lot of valuable information regarding abilities and whatnot, and soon there will be all you need to know about Monks as well. However, for starters, I can tell you that you have an AC of 10. Monks have this great ability of not getting Dexterity bonuses to their Armor Class. But worry not, your AC will slowly improve, at a rate frustratingly slower than that of the rest of the party. I don't poke fun, we all have our shortcomings. I myself am limited to 4th level Cleric while Cinder has to make due as a 1st Edition thief.
As for postings, we pretty much try to keep things in game. A note or two from the players is cool, however, if you want to discuss meaningless "real world" stuff at length, keep it to email. Rob also reserves the right to title his posts. Us players just title our posts with our character's names. It keeps confusion to a minimum.
Let me know if you have been able to read the DiD from the Beginning PDF. That is a great primer for jumping in. If you have trouble opening it, I can email it to you as an attachment.
Anyhow, enough with that garbage. It is a pleasure to have another half-brother in the party! Grisbane has blessed us indeed! And speaking of the Half-Breed on High, he has challenged us with a valiant quest: to round up Andicorn and his renegade Unicorns that plague the Mines of Durth! Come Marivhon, let us test your salt on the field of battle!
Oh, and BTW, if you were wondering about Mike the Zombie, know this: he is a Zombie Master.
