I see we don't have a lp for Darkest Dungeon yet and we should since it's become a great rpg.
I'm pretty terrible at keeping lp's but that's on me, not the game. I'm also not an expert at this game.
Anyway before we get started let's do some legwork.
First, which difficulty: Darkest or Bloodmoon?
Darkest is the normal difficulty: even if we keep dying, we'll eventually make progress since there's no "game over." The positives are we can play less conservatively and try more stupid shit.
Bloomoon is the insane difficulty: it's game over once the 10th adventurer is killed. On the one hand it means our game is pretty much doomed to fail, and we'll have to play more conservatively. On the other hand it means the LP can finish up pretty quickly.
Two excitiing levels of entertainment, it's a win-win.
Second, let's start signing up a Codex roster.
You can simply post your character name and class. Or if you have a backer adventurer, post that.
If you want you can be more detailed: you can list your preferred skills, trinkets, backer trinkets, etc...
For those unfamiliar with Darkest Dungeon, here's a summary of the character classes (they're mostly self explanatory):
Abomination: a lunatic that transforms into a werewolf. Male.
Antiquarian: a treasure hunter/ merchant that is terrible in combat. Female.
Arbalest: a slow crossbow sniper. Female.
Bounty Hunter: a versatile combat specialist that can fight well from any range. Male.
Crusader: your basic paladin/ knight. Male, but who can tell.
Flagellant: a warrior that likes to hurt himself. Very Codexian. Male.
Graverobber: a swashbuckling rogue with some potion and poison tricks. Female.
Hellion: a butchy barbarian berserker with a halberd. Minsc with boobs. Suitable for SJWs. Female.
Highwayman: an anti-heroic rogue that fights up close with a rapier and far away with a pistol. Or shoots you in the face with said pistol. Male.
Houndmaster: has a dog and a big club. Comes with doggie treats. Male.
Jester: like a medieval Deadpool. He's sort of a bard vigilante. A bard that likes to hurt people. Yeah. Very Codexian. Male, but who can tell.
Leper: if you've seen Kingdom of Heaven- Leper. A warrior with a greatsword and a death mask. A tank that hits hard but has zero mobility and terrible accuracy. Male, but who can tell.
Men-at-Arms: a tactician tank. Male.
Occultist: a Lovecraftian sorcerer. Kind of like the sorcerer/ summoner class in this game, except he is also the 2nd best healer in the game. When RNGthulhu answers his prayers. Male and Arabic, with a turban.
Plague Doctor: the other wizard class, but more like an alchemist/ mad scientist in flavor. Female, but who can tell.
Vestal: your basic cleric. Surprisingly effective offensive spellcaster too. Female.
