Here we go. I'll be looking over your characters later tonight.

Feel free to chat, discuss and ask questions.

Humans in the group, Darkmoon Vale's human residents all speak Taldoran. Their accents are clipped and sharp, but nt to the point of sounding angry.

Phrases from the vale.
Cutyard: A tree-felling camp that temporarily houses lumberjacks.
Mudpt: A type of hot spring consisting of bubbling mud.
The Store: Lumbering supplies provided by the Lumber Consortium.
Stoutfolk: What the dwaves of the Fove King Mountains call themselves.
Valer: A human born, raised, and living in Darkmoon Vale.
The Woods: Darkmoon Wood. Vales don't call any other group of trees "the woods".

To be continued...

Where would Clovis be likely to go to find alternative, non-flammable employment?

He's at least semi-ready to go. I'll take another look tomorrow when I'm a bit more together and check I've got him right. He seems to be a walking disaster area in the making at the moment.

For Lazaro

Bleach 208 is out.

The local tavern/inn is called the Sitting Duck.

Sidenote, have you seen Chrome Shelled Regios or Kurokami?

First time I've heard of these.

I should have some more info on the Falcon's Hallow in a moment that may help with character building.

Races in the Vale

Humans: Most come from Chelish Stock, although Ulfen blood is evident
Dwarves: Dwarves have strated a resettlement effort in the towering Five King Mountains (mountain range north of Darkmoon Vale).
While they don;t frequently live in human towns they trade a deal with the town of Olfden (for food and other supplies) and Piren's Bluff (for raw mined ore).
Elves:Before the elfs and eladrin left the world they maintained an embassy in the Darkmoon Woods. When they returned what they found depressed them (The clear cutting of the once sparling and gorgeous forest). Adventurous elves and eladrin came to the vale to work toward reunting the forest and supporting the plight of the fey. Thes goals make elves in the area unpopular with the humans, and even those who don't support or know of the "elf agenda" face prejudice and anger.
Gnome: As former memebers of the Forst World gnomes find the Darkmoon Wood comforting and welcoming. Many serve the Nymph Queen, Syntira as spies, soldiers, alchemist and diplomats. A fair number belong to the Greenfire Circle (a druid circle hoping to find a balance between the fey and the industrious humans) and act as ambassdors between the fey and humans.
Gnomes in the Vale do as they do in other civilized locations: they try desperately (but fail spectacularly) to fit in. They racial oddness and connection with fey makes gnomes a distrusted lot, and their attempts to fit in win them few friends and many enemies.
Half-Elves: Despite the tension between elves and humans, humans find elves breathtakingly beautiful and elves find humans forever intriguing. As a result, every few years, a half-elf is born in the Vale.
Half-Orcs: With an economy based on a laborintensive industry, the strength and toughness of half-orcs make them welcome lummberjacks and security guards.
Halfling: In general halflings are unpopular in Darkmoon Vale, both because they carry the stigma of possibly being ex-slaves of Cheliax and because valers cling to a longheld belief that halflings don't carry their weight. Halflings know they aren't welcome in Darkmoon Vale.

Still more to come... If there's anything in particular you'd like to know just ask.

For Rev and Lazaro

For Rev/Lazaro

Rad/Lazaro

Religion is the Vale(converting the 4e gods to Golarion counterparts)

Asmodeus = Asomdeus
Moradin = Droskar, god of toil (mostly an evil twisted version)
Melora = Gozreh, god of farming, hunting, trade and family
Pelor (but shares area of influence with Bahamut) common with = Iomedae, goddess of justice. Her clerics are unwelcome and untrusted in Falcon's Hallow
Avandra (but shares area of influence with Sehanine) = Sarenrae, goddess of art, love and music

The Green Faith: Focuses on communing with natural forces, particular the Five Elements of Green

Alright. Just need to finalize the background.

Looks good Radavel. Where is the damage for your powers at? Also passive perception and insight are missing.

Clovis looks good to go. Your characters by themselves scare me. I think the monsters will go down rather quickly

Damage inserted.

Passive Perception and Insight, considering my awesome Wisdom score are both: 9

Tatsu Everheart reporting for duty, sir!

Why do I sense that she and Clovis may not get along right away?

So, have you had a chance to look over lia yet? Feel free to take a good long look. ;p

Interesting build. I've never seen a warlock with such a low charisma score before. Be fun finding out how all these pcs play I think.

Okay, in the interest of full disclosure, I am running Hollow's Last Hope for my home group. I'm running it Pathfinder not 4e though. If this is going to be a problem, I will gladly bow out of the game.

I'm sure Lazaro has tweaked the module to meet his exacting standard.

Elf Invoker, Ser Desmoulins ready to go! I'm going to update my profile with more in depth stats later on tonight

Tatsu looks great. I find Wolf Pack Tatics very flavorful not only for the character but the role and feelings wolves and other lupine creatures have on people in this area.

Lia shaping up well all that I can tell is missing are your attacks and damage, and your skill modifiers are missing.

No reason to bow out. I trust you all enough to not use that nformation during the game.

I'll be posting some more info soon. Is there anything you all would like to know about Falcon's Hollow, Darkmoon Wood or Darkmoon Vale that would help with your characters and backstories?

Tierren shaping up as well. I'll look it over more once your done.

Falcon's Hallow
Population: 1,400. The people of Falcon's Hallow are mostly humans.
Government: Falcon's Hallow is controlled by Gavel Thuldrin Kreed: As a gavel (local leader) of the Lumber Consortium, the cold and cruel Kreed exerts almost absoulute control over Falcon's Hallow and it's assets.
Magistrate Vamros Harg, town judge and barrister: The attractive halfling dispenses merchant licenses, stamp mining and lumber claims, and judgement over criminal and civil cases. The fact that Harg is firmly in Gavel Thuldrin's pocket is weel known, but is rarely uttered in public.
Sheriff Deldrin Baleson: Deldrin was formerly a lumberjack under Thuldrin's oppressive thumb. One day he refuse to pay an "axe tax" on a lumberaxe he had already bought and paid for. Boss Teedum tried to Deldrin's axe, and the half-elf smashed Teedum's face with the flat of it. As one of the few local to stand up against Kreed and Taedum, he was elected sheriff the following week.
Deldrin is tall for a half-elf. towering over most humans.
Baleson's Deputies: Deldrin's posse included a Greenfire Circle druid, four burly lummberjacks uncowed by the Lumber Consortium, and two former adventures hoping to clean up Falcon's Hollow.
Boss Payden "Pay Day" Teedum: The pug-faced, mashed-nose human thug licking at Thuldrin Kreed's boot. "Pay Day" gets his name from the way he doles out "dues" to anyone who fails to follow "Mista Kreed's" commands fast enough.
Defense: Kreed can easily rally the lummerjacks, bringing 400 burly lummberjacks to it's defense. He could also send for help from the Lumber Consortium resulting in another 140 well-equipped mercenaries.
Inns: Jak'a'Napes; The Rouge Lady
Taverns: The Sitting Duck
Major Guilds: Lumber Consortium, Redrock Guild
Supplies: Goose'n'Gander (local generl store); High Market; Low Market; Roots and Remedies
Temples: Church of Iomedae

Why do I sense that she and Clovis may not get along right away?

"Cute?"

Expression of total disgust followed by random sample of some kind of doom based power from finger tips.

"Cool. Cool, tough and generally awesome. Watch your kneecaps."

He's got image problems being titchy, blonde and adorably chubby looking when he'd rather be tall, thin and saturnine. Although since you are the only healer, he'll probably see sense eventually.

I'm posting just to let you know I'm still here.

"Hey, you!" Pointing at Tatsu, "You mess with shorty here," pointing at Clovis, "...and you mess with me, too."

I'm posting just to let you know I'm still here.

"You boys need to calm down" Tatsu says calmly. "I know you're just intimidated by my strength and intelligence, but there is no need to be making threats." She looks at the group so far. "Not bad, we've got range and close combat specialists, some magic, and me. I've already got some ideas about formations....." She laughs to herself. "Excuse me, I am getting ahead of myself. We'll talk about that later."

I do wish we had someone trained in traps and locks, though.

Clovis can offer a +5 thievery check should the need arise. Maybe Lia would like to consider taking training in that area? It's one of the more bizarre class skills for warlocks.

Actually I was just sitting here thinking about changing Lia to a rogue. If our illustrious DM has no objection, I think that is what I am going to do.

I give you the new and improved Lia. Completely kitted out to cause massive havok on many levels.

Dave, you might want to get rid of the eldritch blast at the top of Lia's profile, otherwise, cool. With Clovis and the Invoker (sorry, can't remember the character's name) we should be good with magical blasters. Tatsu is all about movement and strategy, we should be able to grant you CA quite a bit.

EDIT:
Also you may want to rethink disheartening strike. it is a rattling type attack and you are not trained in intimidate, so you don't get the benefit. I prefer riposte, as it grants you the possibility of two attacks and it has an interrupt, but piercing strike is good, too. (melee vs. ref, which is usually lower than AC) or just switch one of your skills to intimidate.

EDIT AGAIN:
I am a moron. HALF-ELF, of course. good call with the eldritch blast. it should come in handy. the part about disheartening is still true. Also with your Cha, shouldn't you think about Artful Dodger? what's a +1 to SA really going to help? But hey, what do I know, I just trying to help. And being a complete jerk in the process. Sorry. I'll shut up now.

Actually I was just sitting here thinking about changing Lia to a rogue. If our illustrious DM has no objection, I think that is what I am going to do.

Sorry I haven't posted much, trying to get the last parts converted over. That and life is just bringing me down. But enough about that I should be ready this weekend or whenever ya'll are ready to roll.

Is there anything ya'll need to know before we start?

Hey Lazaro, hang in there !

Hey Lazaro, hang in there !

Everybody looks good, I noticed a few of ya'll are missing you backgrounds/personal description. Other than that I think we're pretty much set to go.

*Kidlat - I noticed the description of Aegis of Assult is missing. Heh, I would pay to see Kidlat and Brujo go mano a mano. I think it would interesting (sure Brujo is a level 3, but that could easy be fixed)

Brujo and the gang are very close indeed to level 4.

JZ, Thumpy looks awesome. The damage from Comeback Strike is missing though.

Thanks for the suggestions Cale. I implamented them and they are now in Lia's profile. I thought eldritch blast would be a nice suprise, since most people would not expect it from a rogue, and it fits with my idea of Lia as being a special agent in Her Majesty's Secret Service.

On the matter of the Duel, Brujo may want to make a cameo....

Well... I... am... done! I hopefullly worked the last kinks out of this thing. While converting a 3.5 module to 4e wasn't that bad, trying to thing what certain items and monster abilities/stats would be in 4e was the worst (I'm looking at you darkmantles).
