Brand is that seed that was in Arc's pocket. His goal was to find out what happened to his parents, why they died, and find their bodies to somehow bring them back so he could have parents.
He's young actually like 12ish im gonna say. He's a half dryad which explains away his fast maturity.
He has arcs skull in his backpack and the charter for the fairvale five. Which led him to find someone connected to the fairvale five, probably led him to fairvale im guessing and possibley to Amelia?
If she heard someone was looking for the fairvale five, might spark her interest? or maybe brunt? I dunno who to puthim with lol...hes very much a monk of nature and loves forests and trees and feels the unnatural blight should be stopped as its what his brave pappy would have done.
ideas?
Brand is actually what grew from the seed, a blend of young, brash human and immortal forest spirit.
Should be interesting to see him, 'grow'.
I foresee more plant jokes that will thankfully go over Brands head.
So everyone leaf him alone, he's branched out from his roots.
That's pretty much what you can look forward to, in a nutshell.
there got my stats up
When do people think we can start this going?
I am ready to subjugate the masses...er...i mean start anytime
Hey Kevin. Just checking the character sheets.
Based on the point buy, your stats must be STR: 14 DEX: 16 CON: 13 INT: 14 WIS: 15 CHA: 10 after you apply youe tengu racial modifiers. I assumed the 4th and 8th stat gains went to Dexterity so that works out to STR: 14 DEX: 18 CON: 13 INT: 14 WIS: 15 CHA: 10. Exactly what you posted. Good job.
Change your initiative to +4 for the 18 Dexterity, rather than +5 though.
Where does your AC come from? +4 Dex, what else?
I am ready to subjugate the masses...er...i mean start anytime
Just double checking your point buy.Assuming the human +2 and level 4 and 8 bumps go to Intelligence, your stats are STR: 8 DEX: 15 CON: 14 INT: 21 WIS: 12 CHA: 10 before boosting intems.
This seems out of whack with your Int of 24. +2 Circlet and what else? Can you double check your numbers?
+4 circlet. And Amelia's stats were rolled. Did you want me to rebuild her as point buy?

I think I just did, :). As per the character creation rules, 25 point buy. You actually got smarter.
STR: 8 DEX: 15 CON: 14 INT: 25 WIS: 12 CHA: 10
My cha was 12, and if you want point buy I would take the lvl 8bump out of my dex and put it in INT Don't worry about it. I will tweak her. I kind of wanted to change my equipment anyway

Ok, fair enough.
any ideas yet on party backstory?
Here's an oldie but a goodie. You all met up, thought joining forces was an excellent idea, and found yourself neck deep in adventure.
Do things really need to be more hashed out than that?
I'm more concerned with what is going to happen next than what has already happened. That's yesterday's news.
When do people think we can start this going?
my character is sorta done. But I have to rework a couple stats, but I can figure that out before the first fight. Ready to rp!
And we're off!
i get first blood!! mwahahah
Yup. Is there something that physically prevents you from capitalizing the first word of a sentence or the letter I?
Slow down. Preview your posts. Then submit them once they are perfect. You have the time.

Looks like we don't have the time though. lol

I didn't know you were going to chime in, lol. It was the me and Jesse show for a bit there.
Now I can pause and reflect.

Her name isn't Shiri and the village is Mudwater. lol.
Each of us should maybe try to use a 10 minute rule?

I'll see your ten and counter with 7. LOL.
And there was 14 minutes between his post and my reply.:)
Welcome to the party Brian. We just started.
If I recall, everything is pretty close together in terms of village and mounds....travel time of a day or so wasn't it?

Correct. A day by swamp boat. Three by foot.
Brian would Amelia have even mentioned Anton at all to us?
I ask because since Brand has the old fair vale charter, he would have put the pieces together that Anton was in the fair vale five with Arc. He would have probably asked you about Anton to see if you knew anything about his father.
it'd be a good tie line RP wise.
Amelia does not speak of Anton.
I see we already started... the gameplay never gave me an update of new messages, so I hadn't noticed. Anyway, they cancelled work today at 10, so finishing up now.
The Fairvale Five did not officially exist with a charter until we had the year-long break, when the survivors made it official and did the whole 'lets make five-pointed star badges' thing. Unless memory has faded...
Anton was still around when we ordered the badges. The 'event' happened after.
So he has some version of the document. We'll call it an early draft.

Join in on the gameplay when you are ready.
We made the charter before heading out the first time because we needed one to get quests.
Then our first quest we got teleported to the south and Arc died and Zalus died and Jotun died.
You picked up Reigar who came back with you to fairvale, then he sent the raw materials off to make the silver hand thingys.
Then we went out on an adventure and he died. Then Sephtis came in and Anton died. By the time we came back no one alive remembered the silver hands things lol
So Brand does have Arc's original copy of the Fairvale charter, given to each member. So unless brunt still has his, its the only surviving copy.
Ok. Consider this canon. Not important enough to spend any more time on.
Moving on...:)
well it'd be nice to RP Brand and the charter. See how Amelia reacts to Anton's name being mentioned alongside Arc's. Brand is actively looking for the fair vale five.
Protip: She won't react. Ice queen.
I'm still missing posts for some reason... appearing now though. Weird. Anyway, character is out.
Why is Amelia listed as an NPC under Characters... are there a bunch of settings the forum owner can see?
If you want to rp talking about the fairvale five, then talk about the fair ale five. Just do it when it makes sense in the game. If Amelia doesn't react she doesn't react, that's role playing too.
I'd like Kevin to chime in on Gamespeak saying yes or no as well, just to have unity.
Slick-san? Going oriental?
I thought this WAS an oriental area? The world description says we lived in Canton?
Har-har!
Slick-san? Going oriental?
Yes.
My idea was to originally live in a part of Arrule far far away. Being a monk, and drawing on ideas tied deeply into eastern philosophy, Asian flavouring makes the most sense.

Yup. That makes us Cantonese.
Since not everybody has deigned to share their character sheet with the rest of us, can we at least say we've been travelling with each other to know a few things?
-Sight: Please list if you have dark-vision, low-light vision, or what light source you normally use. Nyx makes heavy use of darkness, but I don't want to blind the party either.
-Any immunities or resistances you have... I don't want to waste my high-level spells trying to protect somebody that doesn't need it (Deathward for example).
-Any 'standard' kinds of combat actions our characters would know not to interfere with.
-Anything else you think is important that everybody know?
Amelia can and does cast the dark vision spell regularly. She also likes to be invisible. Haste happens fairly commonly and she can give flight to others.

-Darkvision out to 60 feet, blind beyond that point. Can create light sources if needed by others, generally doesn't use it otherwise.
-N/A
-Nyx operates in melee combat. Though not a front-line fighter by any stretch, she does not always need to have opponents kept away either.
-I have lots of my own healing, won't normally need other's.
My character will be shared as soon as I fix a couple things I did wrong. For now though; I do have blind fighting, which doesn't mean I love to be plunged into darkness . I do not have the traditional dark vision of most aasimar have. Replaced it with an alternate trait. Ironically I went the other way from you guys, I manifest a halo, which is like casting light at will, and can cast daylight once a day.
I have the racial resistance to acid cold and electricity, but it's only 5

Everyone did 25 point buy as per the character creation rules posted in campaign info, correct?
