well, i'm up for my fourth run around in my dearly loved universe we call "clocktower." i'm upgrading it to 4e and revising the cosmology (which is slowly changing in game).

so the issue is this: i'm not sure how to start these guys out. It'll be a level four starter, and i'm not sure how to get them all going. the last two games the backstories were lifesavers, but this time around i get generic crap. i've got nothing to play with. nada.

what's a DM with five level four characters to do? i need inspiration! help! :smallsigh:

...what type of adventure / campaign do you want? Knowing absolutely nothing about your setting makes it difficult to suggest any common theme.

Ideas are easy though. Read a few current headlines and twist the news to fit your world. Pick one or more of man's common goals (power, money, love, vengeance) for an antagonist or three. Bury a few interestingly oddball characters in your mixture. Add some detail and stir!
