OK, if I understand what has been said so far, I would like to play a Dwarf (big surprise!) merchant. I'm not sure on the alignment side, something along the lines of he has a code of ethics and will follow them but you may not agree with the rules he plays by. Sort of like the Principled alignment in Paladium.

Subject: [dq-rules] My experience with Dragonquest
To: dq-rules@yahoogroups.com
Date: Wednesday, September 15, 2010, 9:51 PM

Greetings all,
    I check in on this discussion group every now and again, but I don't think I have ever contributed anything to the discussion. I have been playing Dragonquest on and off since 1981 since my early years in high school. My most consistent run was during high school & early college, then in grad school and then a variety of groups on and off since then.  I went through an unfortunate episode in college that culminated in the departure of most of my gaming material. I was able to reassemble most of it in one form or another in the early 1990s, although I was a bit disappointed in TSR's 3rd Edition.
    The game was shelved and I thought finished after ordination in 1993. (Yes, I am a priest.) A group a students that played Magic the Gathering was introduced to the game in 1996-97 and still plays to this day. We played for the better part of two years as time allowed with pastoral demands.  About a year into my next assignment I introduced another group of players to Dragonquest, but they didn't take to it like the last group.  They enjoyed it but no one wanted to learn to GM the game.  After becoming a pastor I have played the game on & off a couple of times with nephews and other adults who had an interest in the hobby. My latest venture into the hobby is with a friend of mine who has two sons and the daughters of some other friends of mine. They are all in junior high or high school, so I wanted another interested adult, preferably a relative, having a dad present has been really good. My hope is to get a couple of young GMs out of this group. While I hope to play with this group on a consistent basis, my track record is not one of endurance. Time will tell.
    Since the early days in the 1980s I have added material to the game. My major disappointment in the early days of playing was the lack of material to support Dragonquest.  I got in the habit of taking material from D & D and Dragon Magazine and converting it for Dragonquest. I think the one of the first things I did was add Avians (Birdmen) and gnomes to the playable races in the game. Gradually other things got added, like 3 professions that were mutually exclusive skills and D & D 3.0 added an avalanche of material. Anyway, in 2000 I opened up Dragonquest Frontiers as a place to hold material on-line. Since then, more and more material has been added and I don't see any end in sight. I think the main thing I think about is enjoyment of the game and some semblance of game balance. While I think I have succeeded in the first, I am forever struggling to discern the latter. More on this later I am sure. Thanks for the community and diverse conversations here.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Sometime back in 2003, Rodger Thorm approached me for a copy of my Word DQ rules, which were submitted to the files section of this list for all to use/abuse as they see fit.

At the time, I had just started my publishing company (RedBrick) and didn't have time to continue with edits/revisions to that set.

Well, 2011 is upon us. I have had some recent conversations with Eric Goldberg and indicated to him that I was keen to publish a "retro clone" (for want of a better term) of DQ, to get it back into print and available (and, more importantly, more openly supported). Eric doesn't hold any rights to DQ, but expressed an interest in how this might progress.

I am keen to assemble a Development Team in the New Year (we do all of our game development online) and was wondering who on this list would be interested?

Before you flood the list with cries of derision or acclaim, please be aware that we are looking for "serious" team members ONLY. Those who are prepared to give of their time in the name of getting DQ out into the market again. There won't be financial reward. There won't be groupies or vouchers for hot chocolate. Just hard (but fun!) work.

At RedBrick, we look for "team players" -- you need to be prepared to leave you ego at the door as sometimes decisions are made that you might not agree with to get products finished, but we do listen to and value all opinions. You need to fit into this mold.

If you are interested, here is the test: Please email me with a short write-up with your experience with DQ, your interest in this project (why and how much effort you think you can realistically commit), and what your expectations are. The cutoff date for expressions of interest is 8 Jan 2011, so get in quick! My email is (change the obvious bits): vestrivan at gmail dot com

I look forward to your responses (and some lively discussion on the list).

Kind regards,

James Sutton (nee James Flowers)
