About OH RPG

OOC Details

OH RPG is best described, in our opinion, as a DnD based online role play group that focuses on character development through quests (adventures, missions, personal stories) or as we have come to call them, PVE (player versus environment) content. Character interaction also plays a large part, however, PVP (player versus player) conflict isn't the focus. Don't despair though! OH does have tournaments, spars and other matches that players can enjoy, PVP just isn't the focus.


We utilize proboards.com and AOL Chatrooms for OH character interaction and adventures. AOL Chatrooms are used for their support of dice rolls and the history of the Rhydin community from so many years ago.


IC Details

Obsidian Heart Adventuring Company, or OH for short, is the in character name of group everything is focused around. It's headquarters is located in the city of Navahla, Capital of the Sarkotos Kingdom. Sarkotos is one of a dozen or so nations and societies in the world of Arith.


Though other SL and NPC groups do exist in the game, OH is the premiere adventuring guild in Arith. OH adventures and missions are the focus of our game, however, characters can have other affilitions and perform adventures and missions for themselves or the SL/NPC groups mentioned above.


Good Times

OH hosts weekly quests (adventures or missions), an activity night and various events throughout the year. In addition to the regular quests game wide Story Arcs are also played out that effect the overall setting of the game. Even more so, specialized storylines are created that allow for creative use of the rules to provide a unique setting that members can join with specialized characters in order to get the most enjoyment out of the play.


Fun

While there may be debates or disagreements over the rules at times (this is of course a DnD based game) drama doesn't have a place in this group. The evolution of the story, character development and fun are our main goals.



What Our Members Say

"The mechanics are great and solid, lots of room for customization and building. A lot of care went into developing the world and what's in it, from the cities, religions, npcs and the like. The community is awesome, like one big D&D group. And the adventures are epic." - Player of Ellis


"If I had to narrow it down....it would be the way the Quests are run and the Creative Freedom you allow to us." - Player of Vilkas


"The best part about OH is the friendly players. In other places, there seem to be cliques, that ruin all the fun. Here, you can discuss ideas, even argue over things, and then continue on good terms, when the next subject pops up." - Player of Gar


"The best part about OH is the dedication that exists within its membership." - Player of Rhyldrin

"...everyone has the opportunity to be involved in exploring new lands and submit new ideas and build on existing ones - and that the members actually do." - Player of Badger
