Thank you.
Before I start plotting a Paladin, I should ask - which Pantheon are we using?
Rownig's player didn't want another player picking up his character (totally reasonable) so I'm building a level 3 rogue now.
She'll be a delightful little know-it-all who totally deserves a spot on the team. Yup, you need her. Definitely.
She'll be very good at disarming traps. Not so good at spotting them. Not too terribly useful otherwise. Lol.
Do we know if we're using automatic bonus progression or background skills yet?
Edit: Since we start with wealth by level, is a Mithral Shirt available? It's basically the same price as +1 studded leather but just a lot better.
This is Lazyclownfish's submission. I would love any kind of feedback at all on the character or background. I feel somewhat lost when it comes to the setting.
I have to finish equipment still.
I also may expand the background a bit. I just wanted to get something down with the time I had.
Kicking around an idea or two as long as recruiting is still open...
You are still doing the random starting level thing right?
Yes, definitely. I asked yesterday in a PM lol.
He said we'd catch up quickly.
I actually have no problem starting at level 2. It will be a serious challenge to not die.
Expect a ranger soon.
Beldain is sitting in the corner of the tavern, awaiting your review.
I'm sorry, I'd seen that. For some reason I simply didn't remember. Thank you for posting it again.
...not ideal. Ah well.
Ok, I went through and updated this character to use the automatic bonus progression rules and cleaned up some minor issues. I also finished gear. Statistically, she's ready.
I haven't gotten to expanding background yet, but I plan to work on that by Wednesday night.
Heh, I like the simple backstory for Dinura. Shady business dealings with nearby Goblin work camps could be very exciting for a clever but otherwise bored farm girl. There have also been recent upheavals between various religious factions and rising tensions among the goblin tribes. Most Dwarves in the larger cities seem content to just ignore or, in the case of Dwarven nobility, seem too busy with their own internal troubles to really be able or willing to deal with it.
Rumors circulate that the current Royal family of Goblins have disappeared which has only further agitated the factions. Although there are now rumors that the princesses of the royal family may have been sighted again traveling through the nearby area. In fact, you may have heard of them visiting recently!
In addition, there was a raid by some sort of horrible freezing undead that raided and broke down a shop in the town.

Awesome, thanks! I was hoping to expand in that direction. I'll definitely use the info you provided!
Updating Miagnik with Automatic bonus progression. Largely this minimally impacts my character but I do have 2 questions of interest.
It does slightly alter one of the magic items I received, The Ring of the Dragon King, which was a ring that had a +1 deflection bonus as one of its abilities.
The 5th level deflection bonus makes this a superfluous addition but does it retain that ability? Perhaps still granting it to a lower level character as we may have a few.
Also, do the automatic level progression bonuses exist alongside the inherent stat increases from every 4 hit dice, or do they replace them? My instinct is to say they coincide with each other, but I haven't found anything saying otherwise.
These four character submissions look great – consider yourself accepted into the game
I’m still looking forward to three more submissions, two clerics and a paladin, so get those in soon if you can
You mean the submissions are accepted, not that our characters have been selected, right?
I took it to mean your four characters are in (and Tick's Aegos) but that Terquem is looking for three more submissions that have been made, to be completed, for his perusal.

Description: Black eyes and tightly braided black hair riven with silver and white, Brolma focuses with intensity on everyone and everything with equal focus. She is slow to speak and tends to be elusive in her meaning, a self perceived prerequisite to knowledge: answers do not come easy.
Background:
When I came to the temple I sat by the hearth and stared in the forge, captivated in a way no other child might express. I heard a song of our people sang by our true mother in the cold dust and flickering light. I came to speak with the most quiet of the brothers and sisters, came to know the stories of the less obvious or celebrated. Always Ismaea whispered of the histories past and the flames long undone.
The ash is the heart of the diamond. The song the heart of our history. I sing it quietly for those who wish it and mark their skin with the spent flame so they remember where we come from. Whispers come to me of trouble. The heart of the earth, where the dark dust dwells and the light flickers and the song is most quiet. Will Ismaea call me there? The answer will surely come soon...
I took it to mean your four characters are in (and Tick's Aegos) but that Terquem is looking for three more submissions that have been made, to be completed, for his perusal.
I hope you are right. Beldain is looking for something new to do.
Thank you for waiting - this is Jon, by the way.
Sorry, it's not perfect - I guess I'm not feeling quite as creative as usual, so the Personality section especially is lacking. I'll wrinkle out the flaws at some point, hopefully - if it's good enough to get in, of course.
Basically, Baradesh here uses the Dwarf Longhammer to unpleasant effect, as he uses Pushing Attack to force enemies back and get Attacks of Opportunity.
His basic story is that as he becomes more powerful his body is turning to stone - which is not the most comfortable thing ever. As he grows more powerful the more pain he is as his very flesh turns to cold, dead rock. Eventually, he'll have to make a decision...but so far strength of will, faith and a desire to help is winning.
Excellent, I look forward to beginning.
Looking forward to it!
Can do, Terquem.
Sounds good. I'm travelling until the 24th and cell service will be patchy but I'll post when I can.
At least it's a crew of proper Dwarves comin' after me an not another bunch'a psychotic goblins.
So here's what yer gonna do- Get yer asses over t' the Gameplay thread, make a placeholder post, then delete it. That'll fix you to the game so it shows up in your Campaigns tab, but it won't make Terquem cranky by uglying up his brand new thread. He's very sensitive.
After that, report in to Discussion and get the party started.
...an' I swear t' the Helmsman hisself that if any o' ye turn out t' be some kind'a princess, I'm just gonna stay in this goddamn cell...
Alright, will get a post up
