3	''Adventuring Party'' is a Roleplay/{{Bay 12\|PlayByPostGames}} roleplay ran by Ross Vernal, creator of ''Roleplay/TheBlackSandBar''.
4
5	The game revolves around a group of [[PlayerParty journeymen Adventurers]] on their first real quest.

7	The [[AdventureGuild Adventurer's Guild]] is an international organization that [[HeroAcademy trains]] those who can pay the yearly entrance fee to go forth and perform the kind of work that normal folk just don't care to do. In a sense, you're a bounty hunter: sometimes, it's treasure hunting, other times, you're hunting down bandits, and occasionally taking part in whatever regional conflicts the local lords put you into.

9	While a Guild membership is not a license to slaughter and plunder ruthlessly without distinction, most governments have an arrangement by which a guild-appointed adventurer is immune to law if said crimes are justifiably committed in the process of honoring a sanctioned Guild contract. The organization does not have this legal privilege around the world, and in many areas is not recognized.

13	!!''Adventuring Party'' contains examples of:
14	* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Happened to Zoah, who impressed his God enough to be appointed to be a custodian of the War God's favorite weapons.
15	* CharacterCustomization: Profile format includes Name, Race, Height, Weight, Appearance, Strength/Stamina/Agility/Speed/Endurance/Willpower/Intelligence/Perception, HP/MP, Level, Virtues, Flaws, Hobbies, and Feats.
16	* CriticalHit: Natural 20's automatically deal maximum damage and have a chance to deal additional damage/special effects upon their victims. When a natural 20 attack is met with a natural 20 dodge, both are re-rolled. If it happens again, then it's just max damage without the special effects.
17	%%* DamageReduction: Referred to as "soak".
18	* DamageTyping: Slash, Pierce, Bludgeon, Ballistic, Fire, Cold, Electrical, Acid, Holy, Unholy, Death, Magical, Auric/Psychic, and Unblockable. Unsurprisingly, Unblockable damage cannot be soaked.
19	* ExperiencePoints: Everything grants you Experience Points. Experience Points are a hidden statistic. Most XP filed under "general experience" which is applicable to whatever level players choose to gain; there is "specific experience" that applies only to existing levels/feats/etc: if you swing a sword around long enough, you're eventually going to gain a level in Swordsman.
20	* TheFairFolk: Myrln was born a half-fae. [[spoiler:When he nearly gets killed, he chooses to become a full Sidhe of the Winter Court.]]
21	%%* LoadsAndLoadsOfRules: The Rules Masterpost is actually two posts.
22	%%* ManipulativeBastard:
23	%%** Myrln and pretty much any other Fae.
24	%%** Also, Morgred when it utilises it's favourite method of creating ghouls.
25	* {{Necromancer}}: Morgred is a Spellwight that specialises in controlling ghouls.
26	* OurLichesAreDifferent: The lich Morgred is composed of a soul inhabiting a different body.
27	%%* PrestigeClass: Multiple, ranked in ascending power: D, C, B, A, S, G
28	* SlidingScaleOfTurnRealism: Combat rounds are between 4 and 10 seconds. This leads to short, brutal fights.
29	%%* TwoLinesNoWaiting: More "two plots and one story", since there are Alpha and Beta parties. There's plenty of waiting.
