[B]Hi Reeka!

Well...I played over messenger once with a friend...
but don't really know whats involved.

Will custom portraits show up?
yes (you have to send your character file to the host, if necessary your portrait can be e-mailed to each party member so that you will "show up" during play.

How long do you play for? It's up to the group, my multi plays for a couple of hours once a week.

Do you start from the beginning always? or can a new player join in at a point in your saved game? Of course you have to start a game at the beginning, but you can add new players at any time during the course of one game.

Can I use a pre-existing character? YES I'd have to import it right? Export? Export it to the host, unless you are hosting

Sorry for all the questions but i'm new to the multi concepts...i'm interested
though and would like to know all about the set up first.
Ummm...

The leader is the host computer? [I] No, you can host and have a different leader, I host but someone else is the party leader [i/]

If i'm lawful evil and your chaotic good and i decided to take over the Alpha spot would the other players support me? Well, yes, in that there is no AI and everyone is my games have worked cooperatively

Not that I would try...mostly my characters
are true neutral...

Are you looking for a particular class? No, you can be anything, class doesn't matter.

If you are interested, Djinn, e-mail me.
