Ever wanted to be a part of the making of a "3rd party" sourcebook for 3.5e that may one day show up for sale on the net? Like necromancy, especially of the arcane varity? If so, then you may want to consider helping me out. I am planing on creating a seires of pdfs to publish using the OGL which will serve more or less as a moneymaking hobby rather then an actual business venture, but I still take this work seriously and I thus I want to see the content in action. Simply put, I am looking for a small group of players willing to be playtesters for the content that will appear in the first pdf, which will be a collection of feats and spells which aim to put necromancy specialist wizards on par with necromancer clerics as far as being an undead leader goes.
The playtest ideally will have a necromancy specialist wizard taking feats and spells from the content which will be included, but the other players can basically be whatever they want. A sorcerer may be interesting to see as well, since a sorcerer would also be able to use the new spells which means the wizard would not have to take as many of the new spells to get an idea of how they work.
The playtest will not be one, long campaign, but rather a series of short campaigns meant to test the material. One campaign will be a typical level 1 campaign, one will be a level 10 campaign, and one will be a level 20 campaign which will eventually reach epic, since there is a (VERY) small amount of epic content among the homebrew to be included in this book. The playtest group should include 2-3 players and ideally 1 DM.(who will get some new monsters to toy with.) While I can DM myself in a pinch, I am rather tied up at the moment with an internship and collage and such, so if somebody else was willing to DM in my place that would be a great boon to me. The date is yet to be set, but if you are interested you will be immediately alerted once the playtest dates are decided.
Anybody interested in helping me out with this?
Also, a quick word of warning, some of the new spells will be rather, well, disturbing, so if stuff like the necrotic cyst spells and such got you grossed out you may find yourself somewhat disturbed by a few of the new spells.
