Omgurd badger stop badgering me.  Use honey, I like honey. 

Cranberry honey specifically.  Besides a lot more work still needs to be put into this to get it up and running with some semblance of balance.

Of course.  But I have to admit that d20 site looks pretty cool. 
When  you figured out the what and how,  maybe you could take a peek at this site :D
But it is your idea,  and you decide how to do it

It could be forum based if the person running the campiegn did all the dice rolls that require a check.

Or we could just invite people to the roll20 and find a time that suits us.

Yeah I think that can be decided later. ( I like the d20 too!) *cough*  But there are a lot things that need to be clear , in order to start or even play a game

I'd be willing to lend a hand in the help of creating a system, and of course I'd play in it.  I have a lot of experience making tabletop game systems, I've made several and officially gamed for TSR in the past.

Awesome Jessica I could use the help.  I'm making a google doc so information can be shared and edited between multiple people.
I'm also a DM for wizards right now at a local shop, it's getting a little out of control as my 6 people game ballooned into 20 on 4 tables with additional night added with another 15 or so.  I've got plenty of storytelling experience, and I know I'm good at it, but the rule systems take more than one set of eyes to figure out the exploits.

Firearms is Definately making its way down to mental skills, while primitive projectiles like bows is being added.

Right now i need people to think up different traits that off the character unique powers, I could come up with a ton but I don't want it to be all my ideas.

You could have perks, such as: Gunslinger, Archer, Captain, Grease Monkey, Silver Tongue (CHA), Conditioned (DEX), Pack Mule (STR), Rifleman, etc.

And racial traits that come from the different factions: Yeshan (Increased Barter/Trade), Baron (Increased STR/DEX), Arashi (Engineering/Thieving), Guild (CHA), And I don't really know the other factions, and again I'm spit balling.

And alignment like Lawful Good or whatever.

traits hmmm... you mean something like

Swashbuckler: After having landed a melee attack you can take a Carousing check to convince your opponent to surrender (or perhaps some form of debuff)

Definately just like that johny.  I do like that trait lol, would be amusing if situational.

I like the idea of racial/faction bonus but want to save that till the end as is could mesh poorly with a profession template and create a mega min max character with ease.
