I'm in, but you knew that already

Edit: Gonna be 1/2 orc fighter, wiling to be related to skofflox if he's taking 1/2 orc fighter Might be interesting... anyway, 1/2 orc fighter, will roll stats Sunday since it's late Sat atm and I've been driving all day and I'm tired. Inv Castle, got it. Will have the start of a char by Sun evening hopefully. Having a mini-Munchkin tournament at our house tomorrow though Very much looking forward to this Benny.

Which makes me think: totally good idea to have connections between characters and all. We could save some time by just deciding that the PCs know each other before hand.

Whether we start the game by having the party arriving in town, or just right there by the dungeon with a short intro and go from there, I haven't decided yet. I'm feeling the latter might be best. Like this, we get right into the meaty part, and then get to know more about the city as things unfold and PCs get back to the surface.

Also, on the surface, if you feel like it, don't hesitate to become part of the community. That is. If you want to open a store, or become a member of the guard, join a gang, preach in the street the greatness of your god to create a local temple, create a guild together, et cetera... I'm totally receptive to these kinds of ideas. I respond to whatever you guys decide to do, or not. It's a sandbox, in other words.

There's a neat "100 Random Reasons 2 characters know each other" table here:

Give me a reason...or a hundred!

Nice having a bunch of GM's trying to make this ultra smooth.  Ben deserves it, though...

Hey, thanks, mate!

That 100 Reasons sheet is pretty cool, Cole!

Quote from: Cranewings;414817Yup, sounds awesome.

I'm playing a wizard so I can show all the cry baby 3.75 Eberon kids you can make it work with one sleep spell and a crossbow.

You misspelled "one sleep spell and a dozen chianti bottles full of fuel-oil"

Ben do you want us to post our characters up in public, stat-wise, or PM them to you.

I'm actually thinking of going with a "plain" human fighter, despite what I'd said earlier.

Cool. Send it to me via PM.
We might create a specific thread later with all the info so that we're not searching everywhere for it.

Alright, sent you my Character. His only equipment is his spell book, material components, dagger, bed roll, water, and blanket. He is eating other people's food, using other people's tents, and so on and so forth.

He is willing to come, but the tiny little guy isn't much of an athlete and can't be burdened with a heavy pack or he would never keep up. That's the price you pay if you want someone to cast Sleep on the bad guys for you

If we're going to roll on B/X Blackrazor's random relationship chart, I also want to roll on his random crazy headgear chart.

Nah. We're not going to roll on the chart. As inspiration for possible relationships between your characters, it's awesome, though.

Quote from: winkingbishop;415204I also want to roll on his random crazy headgear chart.

That however, if you want (your choice individually) to roll on it for free, I have no problem with!

(it's because I want the PCs relationships to remain a choice between you guys, rather than getting pigeonholed into something you don't really want to play. The head pieces however, that could lead to some ideas/inspiration about your character, in-game jokes or reknown: "Oh you know that warrior that runs around half naked with a feathered helmet? Yeah. That guy" )

Half-orc Fighter:

Name: Tudd

Invisible Castle Grid Stats Gen roll...

Final stat arrangement...

Stats with racial adjustments applied...

Str - 16
Dex - 12
Con - 19
Int - 7
Wis - 14
Cha - 14

HP - 13

Kinda different than I was hoping, but much like a character I played in my youth, so I'm gonna roll with it and perhaps channel a younger Sigmund

Anyway, will post the full character sheet in another post, but perhaps more notes in this one.

According to the random headgear generator he's wearing a pot helm, which fits, so there we go

Benny, I notice that his str is one too high for half orc racial max, should I redo him, or make him human, or drop it by one and add the point to con, or just drop it by one?

After switching str and con as Benoist suggested and adjusting for race I have arrived at the current stats.

Recalculated HPs using the same roll and new Con.

Cool. With you Sigmund, Cranewings and Dungeon Delver also generated their characters. Just for the record.

So we've got so far:

Nimten, Shoal Elf Magic User (Cranewings)
Tudd, Half-Orc Fighter (Sigmund)
Ylarum the Doomed, Human Fighter (TheDungeonDelver)

No need to post your character here yet (I'll make a specific thread for this type of information later on, for ease of reference on the board).

Just send it to me via PM.

Hat --> *throw* --> Ring
