This could come out a little garbled...

Campaign: Tandagor, The Stained City
Short Name: CITY]
GM: Andrew Toth
GM E-mail: Andrew_Toth@wlm.toronto.on.ca
Location: Tandagor, a city on Firyala (a continent of Cadina)
Rule System: AD&D 2nd Edition
Rulebooks: Any and every!
Rule Modifications: None (That's a *big* change for me...)
Min/Max Active Players: 2/6
Max Inactive Players(Waiting List): 5
Missed Moves Until Removed: 2

*Character Applications*:
 Characters are to be created using Method V (roll 4d6 six times, dropping
the lowest d6 roll each time. Assign stats as desired). Once stats have been
established, choose your race. Your character can be of *ANY* race you
desire, under a couple of conditions:
1) You must be able to provide for me a set of Attribute Ranges (frex, the
necessary stats for the standard 6 races listend in the PHB), and where they
come from. A Dragon magazine, a Rules Supplement, a website, I don't care.
2) You've got to tell me all the little quirks about the race. If I don't
hear about it, you don't get it.
3) Finally, I reserve the right to disallow your playing that race if I feel
the character will be too powerful.

 After that, choose your class. Same deal as with the race.
       You don't have to choose a Deity, but if you want to, then once again,
the same deal as above. This a fairly loose game with regards to stuff like
this.
 Finally, a list of the following characteristics of your character:
Equipment; Spells (if applicable); Uncommon innate abilities (Thieving
Skills, etc.); Gender; Name; Height; Weight; Proficiencies (both Weapon and
Non); Hitpoints; Skin, Eye, and Hair Colors; Hair Style; and any other little
quirks you'd like to instill into your character (Blind, Insane, Deformed,
Homosexual, a Drunk, Race-Specific Hatred, etc.).
 With regards to Level, characters will be between 7th and 10th (Roll
yourself a d4 to figure it out). Then bestow upon yourself all the
appropriate abilities that come with in.
       With respect to Magical Items, you receive a number of Magical Items
equal to your Level less two. This does not include Magical Armor and
Weaponry, only the funky stuff (I once again reserve the right to veto any
item I feel is too powerful, or just doesn't seem to belong). For weapons and
armor, you can have a number of such items equal to half your level, rounded
down, that are magical. The rest, you have to pay for. Starting gold is equal
to the standard starting gold in the PHB, multiplied by your level.

 And *lastly*, as a sample of your skill, please provide a short background,
as well as a reason for coming to Tandagor. Please keep in mind that Tandagor
*is* a port city, and so transport can be from the following means:
horse/pony; cart/coach; riverboat; coast-trader; or yer own two feets!

*Campaign Overview*:
       Tandagor, the city that rules and houses all (please see the end of
this message for further information), is the place of this campaign (for
now). Tandagorians have always been fairly strange, often aloof. Lately,
however, there have been rumors that something strange is happening in the
city. No-one can pinpoint anything, however.
 Upon arriving in Tandagor, the characters are arrested for variousy and
grossly absurd reasons. Some are taken right away, while others are not
imprisoned until a day or two into their stay.
 Ideally, escape from prison will occur in two, probably three Moves. Simply
because I want to see, even though this scenario is viewed as over-used, how
the players cope with it, and also to set out a few tendrils of
story-development.
 Also, there's going to be an initial move for each player detailing how they
were imprisoned. This is a necessary move, and I will tip you off right now
that it will contain something(s) that should be remembered for later.

*Non-Standard Setting*
 Firyala is, in comparison to the other Cadinan landmasses, quite normal.
Pretty much the only thing of any note in this category is the structure of
Firyali society. There are no countries. Each race (or other form of social
community) has established its own stomping ground. Outside their own set
laws and ways, there is one overlship: The Council in Tandagor.

Harold. Given our recent discussions, I'd like to ask you to play in this
game. Whether you do or you don't, I'd still like your input on what you
think of the game's progression. Sound goo
