Good plan; don’t bite off an excess of stuff. It’s enough, sometimes, to make a minimal prototype.

Anyway, awesomesauce; I look forward to seeing it sometime.

Heya, Chris! Challenge is a good word for it. At this point, I’ve realized I’m going to have to scale back dramatically. Even the pared-down version of the D&D Essentials ruleset I’d been working from is proving too cumbersome now that I’m at the point of defining functions to govern interactions. It would probably be doable if I had a team to work with, but c’est la vie.
I am indeed aiming for in-browser JavaScript. It’s a learning exercise for right now – I’m still figuring out object-oriented programming, never mind JavaScript – so I haven’t given much thought to persistence beyond sticking it on a server. I’ll be happy if I can get one room working; anything more is icing. :p

How are you planning to implement it? In-browser javascript? What sort of backend for persistence are you thinking of?
