ZERO LEVEL PLAYER RULES: A Guide to Creating Zero Level Players for OSRIC and other OSR retro-clone games.
I created these Zero Level Player Rules as a helpful way of introducing new players to role playing games and as a useful way to form a new adventuring party¸ forged from a close knit group¸ e.g. all from one community and not just random strangers. I provide a detailed¸ step by step character creation technique¸ with new features such as player origins¸ created with the intention of helping players invest in their avatar and of tying the characters together. I also include an adventure to help the newly created PCs bond as a group.
In "The Lair of the Toad"¸ the players are a group of friends who have grown up together and on the fateful night in question they meet a traveler¸ in the person of would-be eleven sage Alura Morrowgan¸ who seeks their assistance in recovering her heirloom signet ring¸ which was lost in the market square.
The players realize it's time to put down the blacksmith's hammer¸ step out from behind the bar¸ and stop alphabetizing those scrolls for their master. It's time for the players to strike out on their own path¸ to start writing their own story with their friends by their side¸ to earn a name for themselves and their adventuring company¸ it's time for…adventure!
This 20 page rules supplement and adventure module contains all the information you need to create and play fledgling zero level player characters. You will find within information on creating player characters that will assist new players in learning to role play and how to connect to their character¸ and to help veteran players become more connected to their characters¸ and to help you and your players create a more immersive experience by creating player characters that have a past together for a more cohesive group! It is our hope this product will add an entirely new aspect to your dungeon delving adventures!
