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.

Sterling, you're a Hunter/Fisher (guess you should choose one, and if you poach on the hogs of Pig Isle, we'll have an enmity - extra roleplaying options!

As a halfling you get -1 STR, +1 DEX. Also, thanks to your CON you get +4 on saves vs. rods, staves, wands, spells and poisons. Besides Common, you speak dwarven, elven, gnome, goblin, halfling, and orcish. If you're mixed Stoutish blood (that's a subrace), you have 30' infravision, if you're pure Stout, it's 60'; and you also get  a 75% chance to determine if a passage is up or down grade, 50% to determining direction. When alone (at least 90' away from the party), you have a 2 in 3 chance to surprise the enemy, or 1 in 3 if you have to open a door to do so.
Obvious troll is obvious. RIP, Bill.

Registered three times for an invisible castle account before it would send a verification link, then said the link had expired - five minutes after it was sent.

Starting work now so don't have time to fuck around with emailing the admin, so gonna have to drop out.  Sorry guys.

I can't help being a f*cking pedant in an OOC thread, so I must ask, Cargoman: what's a "Stout Half Elf"? 50% human, 50% elf, 50% Stout hobbit? That's, like, 50% more character lineage than the humanoid body can maintain! :P
And why does he get +1 CON -1 WIS? I'm not aware of any race that does that.

I'm sure it's typo and he meant half-elf. :)

All of your characters have the -1 WIS and +1 CON modifier due to your starting age; please see post #1 in this thread. :)

OK, in reviewing the characters, we still need some information for a few.  Below is the what I have so far for your characters.  Please fill the blank spots on your sheet for me. :)

Also, note that I have adjusted some of your Ability scores due to age (see post #1 in this thread).

Cargoman, I went with the first time-stamped stat rolls you made on Invisible Castle (which was the best of the three) and adjusted since your mistakenly make the wrong dice roll.  You rolled 2d6+2 for all of your ability scores instead of 2d6+6! :)

Unfortunately, for Cargoman and Premier the CON bonus due to age is lost due to racial maximums.

This characters are listed in no particular order...
