This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Would it?  

Would it not be better in the actual game thread labeled as OOC, or in a spoiler tag so we are sure the DM notices it?

Alright, alt-ID created, first post in the blog made.


Stupid attachment system that doesn't like .rar files.

Here's a temporary character sheet, stolen from Willpax (:p), I still have a lot of stuff to buy (the equivalent of 869 gp) and a few other changes may be needed -- as I don't know how we calculate hp, I just maxed out both HD, for example. :D

For OOC stuff - simple stuff (like clarifications) can go in the IC thread in marked OOC sblocks. More complex things we can take care of via PM or email is private, or in the new OOC thread (check the Games tab!) if public.

tlei - go ahead and post a stat block to get yourself going, and give yourself a few days to get the sheet going. I do, however, need sheets from everyone ASAP.

I don't have a problem with scribing scrolls at the half-cost rate. Please keep track of the XP burned in this way, though. It probably won't come into play with the amounts we'll be seeing, but there's the chance.

This also goes for other spellcasters - scrolls (if you've got the feats) can be bought at half price (as long as the spells on them come from your spell list). Also, I have no issue with the forms of the scrolls being different either - if your scrolls are pieces of wood inscribed with hexagrams that need saliva smeared on specific parts of the image in order to function, more power to you.

To ask me any questions you think you need to. I'll be fitting you in relatively quickly - but it might take a few days to get to that point.

Background would be good - we can either fit you in as another PC with Farisian ties (or at least da Silva ties), like what looked to be happening with Elidia's PC, or we can go another direction. Either way will work.

Let me know.

Mega - I don't think you need both Ambidexerity and Two-Weapon. Having both in order to get the full two-weapon benefit was a 3E thang, and one that they did away with in 3.5 (where you only need two-weapon fighting). So with that you could have an extra feat to play with.

It just occured to me that I never discussed hp gain!

Let's go max for the first two levels, and then roll from then on out, with a minimum of at least 1/2 the max on the die (so the worst a fighter is going to do is 5 per level).

Ah... didn't figure that from the SRD , but if you say so....
I'll let my inner munchkin abuse the notion to its fullest.....
Btw- Could you give me a quick run-down on the penalties , regarding two-weapon-fighting , 3.5-wise?

Edit : If Amb. makes no difference to TWF , I'd go for Quickdraw ; Speed and swiftness are my character's "middle-name" so to say.(Not to mention : stealth and silence....)

Edit #2 ; Not to be buggering , but IRL it does help to be more-or-less ambidextrous ; I learned fencing the Rapier&Main-Gauche. My innate talent for Amb. (a family-trait) helped me a lot with that...
I think I'll take that to the mechanics-talk-part of these boards....
