The Reaping Stone (Cassomir) Table 2

Game Master Karmic Knight

Players for table 2 please dot

Thanks GM Aumakua, looking forward to getting stuck in! I'll pop stats into the class box so they are easily available shortly :)

Glad to have you along for the story.

Yo!

Ho lads and lassies! Let's git on with tha show!

*Edit* - so a couple of questions I wanted to ask:

Can we pool our resources before the adventure starts? We should get a wand of infernal healing (assuming nobody objects to such spells). I still have a bunch of gold I haven't spent.

How do you want to handle the HP of Kirzon's snake companion? Right now, it actually has 3 HD. I think there are quite a few ways to handle it. Here are the most natural ones that come to mind.
- Actually roll each hit die
- Average roll per dice
- Max for the first 2 HD, roll the 3rd and subsequent HD
- Max for all 3 HD, roll subsequent HD
Anyway, I'm okay with whatever approach; just need to figure out the number to write down on the sheet.

I spent most of my gp...

I would prefer the Celestial Healing spell too?

=)

Celestial Healing seems pretty awful for a wand, 1 hit point as opposed to Infernal Healing 10, or cure lights d8+1. I spend the majority of my GP to so we can probably just figure it out in game.

Ok, I didn't realize they changed the duration between the two. I assumed they were just two sides of the same spell.

Kirzon:

1. Pooling of resources no. You will have a chance in game but at the start no.

Btw I am new to this infernal and celestial healing but from what I have read in their descriptions I have no problems with them being purchased.

2. For Boros hp roll for each hd.

Greetings all looking forward to the game. I also spent pretty much all of my gold some additional healing is always nice but assuming you keep me alive I should be able to do the same for you ;).

Just don't expect me to fight like.....anything.

Alright, let's do this:

Boros HP: 3d8 ⇒ (4, 2, 1) = 7 Ouch! Well, he'll focus on harassing squishier enemies as opposed to tanking.

ouch Boros might be better described as a large gardener snake.

Hey! Snakes have other uses than combat! There is always snake dancing..and uh...petting zoos, and...dancing...

I'm not helping much here, right?

Tanks are overrated. Just get a cardboard box for him to hide in and he can scout and assassinate for us.

Hey Merelda after reading your bio it seems we are both devotes of Calistria looking a man (this is not the start of a dating Ad i swear) whose connection is to Basila, would we want to write in that we have some acquaintanceship and are perhaps joined forces to seek out this one man for both of our mutually beneficial purposes. Your seeking vengeance on behalf of the church, i want his map that kinda deal.

EDIT: also i brought manacles did you remember to bring the whip?

Dotted!

Dotting

Whoever heard of a snake tank anyway.

Excellent all 6 accounted for. Over the weekend I'll be reading over your backgrounds again and trying to determine what interactions you may have had up until with one another. So I will probably have some questions for each of you.

These are open discussions so the rest of the players will have a better idea how to interact with your character. My plan here is to make this introduction more than 'you all meet in the tavern one dark night.'

Merelda/Innis: As Innis has indicated your backgrounds are similar and this is not coincidental that I put you in the same group.

• As clergy of Calistra do you both know each other?
  
• If YES are you on good relations with one another? If not what happened?
  
• If NO have you heard of one another through a superior or a colleague
• Are you both after the same person. YES or NO?
  
• If YES do you both know that you are seeking the same man?

EDIT: also i brought manacles did you remember to bring the whip?

What Domina...I mean Inquisitor of Calistria leaves home without her whip?

Lol @ Merelda

BTW and this goes for everyone don't go into too much depth with my questions you can answer in point form no need to get overly detailed.

subject to Mere's approval

She brought the whip so we might have a budding friendship now ;)

The local church and individual investigation directed us towards each other as other leads were scarce.

both after the same person we both know we are know we are seeking the same person. confirmed after we pooled our Intel.

subject to Mere's approval

Did not know each other prior, Mere (being an inquisitor) might have heard of me considering my prior standing with the church and Lady Phoenix and thus our alliance had a shaky start.

Approved!

Call her "Merry" for short...

Innis:

• What is your standing with the church currently?

Kirzon:

• How long have you lived outside the city?
  
• How often do you find yourself in the city?
  
• Do you have any other contacts other than Vasaro?
  
• If so who? (name/profession, anything special about the person)

Lililinda:

• How long have been in the city?
  
• Do you have a room at the Pike and Tankard?
  
• Are you freeloading off of Vasaro?
• If NO how are you supporting yourself in Cassomir?
• If YES has Vasaro and/or Basila shown any resentment ?
  
• Have you made any other contacts through business or otherwise?
  
• If so who? (name/profession, anything special about the person)

Nicias:

• How close are you to your uncle and cousin?
  
• Do you work at the inn to pay for room and board?
  
• How long since you have been in Cassomir following the disbandment of your regiment?
  
• What is your reaction to your uncle having this stranger (Him'Wazir nar Maekra) around the inn all the time? Do you treat him like a Qadiran (although he is a Kelishite)?
• Have you interacted with Him'Wazir at all?

Him'Wazir:

• What was Vasaro's reaction to you when he first saw him after all these years?
• How long have you been in the city?
• What do you think of Nicias, Vasaro's nephew?
• Have you had any run ins with the constables or others who probably mistake you for Qadiran?
• If so did Vasaro have to save you somehow?

• Him had a standing offer to visit, but given the time distance, and most importantly the fact that Vasaro thought he had died some six years ago he was pretty surprised to be taken up on it. The two spent several days getting uproariously drunk, talking about killing gnolls, women, and in the small hours when their mood turned sour about their respective ordeals in captivity.


• About two and a half weeks, he is just beginning to feel he has outstayed his welcome, though Vasaro has assured him he is not.


• He has spent a fair bit of time drinking with the lad, who seems a good enough sort. Vasaro and Him have both enjoyed regaling him with an onslaught of increasingly fanciful, and horrific, war stories; The old timers have a private based on Nicias and Basila's reactions to their tales, points for eye rolling, sighs, leaving, and ten points if they can make a youngster vomit!
  
• Well it would not be a mistake - he is a Keleshite from Keleshite Satrap of Quadira, but would call himself Quadiran first - he has had run in with the guard; but being non threateningly gaunt, fairly charming, coupled with a few coin tricks, a few selectively chosen truths, and a number of very dirty jokes about Quadiran's relationships with their camels - most of which he learned from Vasaro - he was able to part on friendly terms. His voice, is also a broken rasp so he doesn't really sound Quadiran, just extremely raspy - he gets a lot of healers recommended to him.

Kirzon:

• How long have you lived outside the city?
  
• How often do you find yourself in the city?
  
• Do you have any other contacts other than Vasaro?
  
• If so who? (name/profession, anything special about the person)

Kirzon has lived outside the city for roughly the past five years (assuming that Vasaro and Basila have been around much longer).

He probably comes into the city 2-3 times a month, because he misses ale! Used to be more, but Kirzon has grown more comfortable with the outdoors over time. He'll spend the night at the Pike and Tankard, if he's had one too many to drink. He also takes the opportunity to purchase and barter goods.

Kirzon has the following additional contacts in Cassomir:
- Silvio, operator of a specialty store for "adventurers." Kirzon occasionally buys survival gear for getting along in the wilderness, much as he did in his days as a lumberjack. As a wizard himself, Silvio is often curious about druidic magic, which he claims does not fit in well with what he was taught about arcane and divine magic.
- Leoni, a local tanner. Kirzon's go-to for selling snake hides and other curiosities of the swamp, which is enough income to let him get by when he has business in town.
- Lucia, a cartographer. Specializes in navigational maps for sailors, but sells all sorts of other maps. Kirzon likes to chat about faraway lands with Lucia. He's also helped Lucia with mapping parts of the Verduran Forest and Blackwood Swamp. What he doesn't tell her is that he has intentionally provided incorrect information at times, to shield certain natural and druidic sites.

Nicias:

• How close are you to your uncle and cousin?
  
• Do you work at the inn to pay for room and board?
  
• How long since you have been in Cassomir following the disbandment of your regiment?
  
• What is your reaction to your uncle having this stranger (Him'Wazir nar Maekra) around the inn all the time? Do you treat him like a Qadiran (although he is a Kelishite)?
• Have you interacted with Him'Wazir at all?

Just to point out that Quadira is part of the Empire of Kelesh, and the vast majority of Quadiran's are Keleshites. I guess its like being Caucasian, but French and European, etc. Him is ethnically Keleshite, but nationally Quadiran, and a subject of the Padishah Empire of Kelesh via the Satrap of Quadira.

Innis:

• What is your standing with the church currently?

Currently in good standing however to be admitted to the "inner secrets" a worthy token must be presented to the church hence the map and "treasure" hidden with in the vault. Alternatively infamy/fame or an obvious sign of the goddess' blessing would also be acceptable if slower paths to this goal.

That being said should the chance arise to wreak some personal vengeance upon Lady Phoenix she would likely take it, all vengeances serve the goddess one way or another.

Lililinda:

• How long have been in the city?
  
• Do you have a room at the Pike and Tankard?
  
• Are you freeloading off of Vasaro?
• If NO how are you supporting yourself in Cassomir?
• If YES has Vasaro and/or Basila shown any resentment ?
  
• Have you made any other contacts through business or otherwise?
  
• If so who? (name/profession, anything special about the person)

• Barely a day.
  
• Yes
  
• No, I had enough for a room
  
• Not sure yet. Looking into how I can advertise my tailoring skills.
  
• No contacts yet, other than Vasaro
  

@Nicias:

How about Lililinda's alchemist father being an instructor for your politically ill-fated regiment? I don't know how it would ever come into play, I just saw a potential for a connection.

@Him'Wazir"

I challenge you to an arm wrestle! ;)

@Him'Wazir"

I challenge you to an arm wrestle! ;)

Imma place my bets on the little one

also i think the highest Str score in this team is 13 we are somewhat lacking in brawn, hopefully our other qualities make up for this.

Fashion designer, dominatrix, Model, Reverse Captain America, Ex-lumberjack and disgraced sapper. Not forgetting anyone am i ?

"Hah! I would, but these are not my arms, they were a gift and as such I must take especial care for them - it is only right. But perhaps you would care to play cards, pok-air is it? I have never played before, but my understanding is that you northern folk play such games for coin?" The scrawny Keleshite replies, flashing a draconic smile.

FYI folks I've altered my gear slightly adding a Buckler - so I can swash properly - and a couple of decks of cards :)

"My game is dice if I must, but truly there are more exciting ways to pass the time" wink

"Ah, well I am in need of strength training, but pride myself on being both acrobatic and limber. Alas when they, how is it said? regin regenerv... grew back, my extremities they asked me to say when to stop, and in my greed I am now too much for any woman!" Him'Wazir replies glibly, sighing theatrically as he glances sadly down at his lap.

( Haughty laugh ) "Well it is a good thing i am not any woman, numerous accounts might remark me as quite...singular. Perhaps another time eh? For now i suppose cards will do unless lonely strength training is what you now seek."

either way discussion thread =/= rp thread let's save some for when the game starts ^^

"I am told repetition is the key," Him replies, somewhat ambiguously as he raises his tankard again taking a long pull of his drink and smacking his lips in satisfaction.

"Cards then? We can play for questions, for I am a curious man in more way than one! Simple high card draw perhaps? The more the merrier, I confess I am new to Cassomir, please save your astonishment, and I have rarely known making new contacts to be detri... dotra... unhelpful."

With a flourish of his spindly fingers he produces a pack of cards and creates a waves of dancing cards between his outstretched hands before neatly fanning them out across the table with a single fingertip.

"I'll draw first, let me see... Ahhh, the Queen of Clubs, how very, appropirate, no, ah, fitting."

Sleight of Hand: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

I guess roll a d51, high being good, so you would need 40-42 to match with a queen, or 42 and above to win :)

also i think the highest Str score in this team is 13 we are somewhat lacking in brawn, hopefully our other qualities make up for this.

That just means we must be quicker and tougher to make up for it!

Not to mention others will underestimate us! They will only see a group of women and weaklings! We will dominate!
=)

This is kinda funny. I have one PbP group I play with where everybody has a speed of 20, except for my character who is monk with speed 30, and at least 2 characters have 17 str or better!

We are going to have to out-think our enemies a lot, rather than bully through them all the time.

"I am told repetition is the key,"

Cold reptilian stare. Not if you do it right the first time.

"Cards then? We can play for questions, for I am a curious man in more way than one!

Slow blink. Curiosity is for children, cats, and bats. I only play for clothing. Sometimes, I even let my opponents earn back what they lost...

"I'll draw first, let me see... Ahhh, the Queen of Clubs, how very, appropriate, no, ah, fitting."

Licks her red-lips invitingly. I prefer the queen of hearts myself. Blood-red and oh so...delicious." Her eyes glaze at some distant memory, but only for a second.

Innis kisses the back of her hand and draws from the deck.

Looks at the card for a moment in mild amusement. "7 of spades nets me no win but a favorable card none the less, ask your question." inclines herself in a minor seated bow towards Him'Wazir.

We may be weak, but we're rocking some pretty impressive diplomacy :)

"Ah, I wonder which am I? But getting things wrong can be so much fun! If we are playing for questions I could always promise to ask you to take off some clothes, I am nothing if not accomodi... acrom.. helpful, but not quite that."

Flashing a smile at Innis, "Alas my Queen beats your six, so... What brings you to Cassomir's scenic, is that right? Scenish? Docks."

~To determine the nature of Him's unusual speech~ Sense motive: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

"I am The Wind I travel where I may. Perhaps I seek something new, something old something that is one in the same."

He's just trying to be more eloquent in a second language than he is capable of.

"Bah, tch, very well "The Wind", I am not the only one cheating it seems! As well I listen to the wind - and I am getting older so I too often do," Him scoffs genially, "I do not suppose you wish to describe what you seek without riddles? Who knows perhaps one of us here has spied whatever it is, stranger things have happened."

"Cheating!?" she asks shocked and appalled but clearly mocking for the sake of amusement. "I dare say I have done nothing of the sort the victor is blessed with the opportunity to ask a question. We never specified on the nature of the answers. I see in you another folly of Man, seeking to unravel a mystery before it's time and in your haste it seems you have been caught in an admission of guilt laid-bare for all to behold. Your win is void, as such I should pose a question of my own. I would ask the scoundrel before me, if he has the need to revenge himself upon those that caused the loss of his limbs?"

@Nicias:

How about Lililinda's alchemist father being an instructor for your politically ill-fated regiment? I don't know how it would ever come into play, I just saw a potential for a connection.

Sounds good to me. I can either casually mention that I had a gnome instructor in the army, and you can put two and two together, or you could mention your clan name and I would recall a gnome instructor with that name...depends on how things play out.

Just noticed I had not given Him Gnoll as a language, which he really ought to have, so replaced Varisian with it.

"Ahhh, ehh? I find revenge to be very tiring, plus I can barely tell one dog faced bastard from another so I have the less wearisome goal of slaughtering every last one of the mongrel sons of b+@*~es and setting up a business to sell their skulls as chamber pots. When I have regained my former strength I will return to articu... artistu... articulate? Articulate, yes, my displeasure." Him'Wazir's eyes glaze over as he speaks, and bony fingers curl tightly about the hilt of his scimitar.

We may not have much combat strength, but we sure have a lot of charmers! Why do the fighting yourself when you can get someone else to do it for you?

The old bearded dwarf watched from his usual spot at the bar, bemused at the conversation in the nearby table. It wasn't everyday that a Keleshite man entered a bar in Taldor. Yet he seemed to be trying to charm not one but three beautiful ladies. I guess it pays to be an exotic foreigner? He takes another long sip of his ale.

Hello all I have been running this game since May. We had the misfortune of losing one of our players. The group size I am running is 6 players.

He was the group's front line melee. So we are in search of filling this role. This is an equal mix of combat and roleplay and the encounters are meant to push the group to their limits. (i.e. you can easily burn through your daily abilities and spells and be forced to continue)

Right now there is a lull as the group miraculously made it out of a rather long encounter so it seems like the perfect time to find a new player.

Character creation rules are not your typical set up:

Str6d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 1, 6, 5, 1) = 15
Dex4d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 4, 6) = 19
Con5d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 5, 6, 5) = 23
Int4d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 5, 3) = 16
Wis4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 1, 4) = 12
Cha4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 4, 1) = 16

12/16/16/14/11/15

So that's not happening, apparently. Good luck finding a frontliner.

Hello, I'm one of the players here, just checking in.

@Burnscar - If you're interested, you could definitely make a dex-based frontliner. Our prior frontliner was a swashbuckler with strength 6. I believe he had Slashing Grace to get +Dex to damage. And you have a good Con score to boot. Obviously not what you were aiming for in your dice loadout, but 35 point buy is pretty good.

Str6d6

Dex4d6
Con5d6
Int4d6
Wis4d6
Cha4d6

12/16/16/14/11/15

So that's not happening, apparently. Good luck finding a frontliner.

Could work for a Barbarian or Paladin. The barbarian would have massive HP and lots of rage rounds. A Paladin would be more tanky than offensive, but big HP plus self-healing ability would still make for a good frontliner. Tha CHA's nice for a Paladin as well.

Another player here. You could easily do a Bloodrager as well with those stats.

To give some perspective on the help we need, here are the party members we currently have:

Merelda "The Widow" Widdomeria, Elf Inquisitor of Calistria
Innis, Changeling Cleric(Ecclesitheurge)/Sorcereress of Calistria and buffer extraordinaire
Nicias, Human Alchemist (grenadier)
Lililinda, Gnome fashion designer and Fey Sorceress
And yours truly, Kirzon, old dwarf and his trusty snake Boros.

tentitive dot for interest will revisit things in the morning

Dotting for tentative interest.

It looks like you mostly need melee then? Getting ready for work and trying to get various game replies in so I won't have much tie to look into things till I get home this afternoon.

Edit: Got the time to at least roll stats and get myself thinking.

Str: 5d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 5, 3, 3) = 16
Dex: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 1, 4, 3) = 17
Con: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 3, 5) = 19
Int: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 5, 5) = 19
Wis: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 2, 6) = 15
Cha: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 1, 4, 6) = 16

Str: 15
Dex: 16
Con: 16
Int: 15
Wis: 13
Cha: 15

Hmm, not perfect but I think I can work with that well enough.

Forgot to ask but how many are you accepting?
N/M just saw the answer to that part.

How would you all feel about a polearm build for your frontliner?

Dotting with dice.

str: 6d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 2, 1, 5) = 21 17
dex: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 1, 5) = 15 14
con: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 2, 6, 6) = 21 18
int: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3, 1) = 9 8
wis: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 2, 4) = 12 11
cha: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 4, 5) = 16 13

I can live with those. When my internet comes back online (in a few hours hopefully) I'll get everything else worked up.

I'll dot too.

Str: 6d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 1, 5, 3, 5) = 18 13
Dex: 6d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 6, 1, 2, 3) = 21 15
Con: 6d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 1, 3, 4, 1) = 16 11
Int: 3d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 4) = 10 10
Wis: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 5) = 15 15
Cha: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 3) = 13 13

Ack! Nevermind.

Dot! I'll read more later to understand the dice thing. ;)

Drogeney polearm melee is fine.

str: 5d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 1, 3, 5) = 20 16
dex: 5d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 1, 6, 6) = 21 18
con: 5d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 3, 4, 2) = 19 14
int: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 3, 6) = 17 15
wis: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 5, 5) = 15 13
chr: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 6, 4) = 13 12

very doable, will have something worked out soon.

So I would like to submit a character idea to the group. How would a Human Huntmaster Cavalier fit in? I think it could provide a solid front line and set up some nasty crowd control for the group. Really performing the tank role well.

STR: 4d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 6, 1, 4) + 2 = 18

DEX: 5d6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 6, 2, 5, 6) + 2 = 24

CON: 5d6 + 2 ⇒ (6, 3, 4, 2, 1) + 2 = 18

INT: 4d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 5, 6, 3) + 2 = 18

WIS: 4d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 1, 4, 5) + 2 = 14

CHA: 5d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 3, 1, 4, 1) + 2 = 15

Str:15
Dex:17
Con:13
Int:14
Wis:10
Cha:11

Not quite the stats I was hoping for but I could still work with this. Basically I would have two hounds following me around while I whip and net things into submission and my dogs tripping and mauling them.

Let's try that... Thinking a monk, maybe, or something DEX-based.

4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 2, 5) = 19 ~ 17
5d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 1, 3, 6) = 21 ~ 17
5d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 3, 1, 6) = 20 ~ 16
4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 6, 5) = 17 ~ 15
5d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 6, 2, 5) = 22 ~ 17
4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 2, 6) = 15 ~ 13

Hmmm great stats! Let me think and I'll bring something soon.

Beginning work on my character submission. Is this a home brew story or based off a module?

Let's roll the dice and see:

Str: 6d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 6, 4, 4, 5) = 26 16
Dex: 5d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 6, 4, 5) = 24 16
Con: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 4, 6) = 16 14
Int: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 5, 4) = 21 17
Wis: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 6, 2) = 17 15
Cha: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 6, 5) = 21 16

Wow, those were some rolls. Now, I have no idea what to do with them...

How about a Bladebound Kensai? Not your traditional tank perhaps, but with these stats it should be possible.

The character will be focused on seriously debuffing the enemies, which should be an effective way of stopping them from attacking his companions.

The story is as follows:

In the city of Cassomir, located in Taldor, a series of attacks were launched on various establishments in the Cassomir Locker (the docks district) by a group of fanatical priests. If the rumours hold true these priests were also being aided by pale blue humanoids with bulging white eyes and wild hair.

Several of these fanatics died and none were captured. As for the blue humanoids they disappeared - some think into the sewers - but noone can confirm. All of this occurred just last eve and rumours have begun to spread throughout the Cassomir Locker district.

All submissions should include the reason why your character is in Cassomir. The campaign is based off of a module and I've just retooled it so that it happens in Cassomir. I'm open to any melee type dex-based str based, whatever. The party will have a say in who gets selected.

Alright, here's my submission. I'll make an alias if accepted provided that's alright. I believe that I've gotten everything down correctly and I may purchase a few other items before starting if I get the spot, but otherwise she is done.

Looks good Drogeney.

I'll have to change the last part of your background slightly.Since the attack happened just last night in game terms none other than the party knows of the reaping sickness.

I'd likely have you accompany these priests back to Cassomir based on an augury that one of them had cast which spoke of incoming death to Cassomir.

I should have mentioned this in the initial post but I'll announce whoever is selected on Friday, October 14.

Thanks all.

Hi Aumakua, Chess here! Here's Andulian Vogh, my character submission for the game - already with background, sheet, and whatnot. Please feel free to send me any questions or concerns, and thanks in advance for the consideration.

Wow. These are... well, awesome. Awesone for any kind of frontliner except possibly a Magus.

I will think if I want to be a fighter, a paladin or a barbarian... but I am seriously considering TWF just because I can do it with this awesome dex.

Edit!: Forgot to ask... are variant heritage tieflings available? I am fancying a Tiefling paladin, but that -2 to cha may be a bit too much.

Thinking Bloodrager

Here's Bimpnottin Daergel's submission.

Rough idea (can do a more detailed background if selected):
Devil-spawn Tiefling Brawler
While not the toughest up-front fighter, Zarah is a scrapper. Abandoned by her parents because of her obvious devil-spawn appearance, she was taken in by a priest of Abadar as an infant. Raised in the temple, she could never keep her temperament under enough control to catch the attention of the clergy. However, she had a knack for bare-knuckled fighting that she honed to protect herself from those that would bully her. Additionally, growing up in the temple of Abadar, she found a love of moneycraft and trade. Not book-smart enough to be a bookkeeper for the faith, she instead opted to pursue a more militant role acting as hired muscle for trade ships. She has recently ended her last stint on a merchant vessel (no negative feelings, just end of contract and time to find a new crew to join) when they made port at Cassomir. She's been in town now for several weeks and is getting antsy to either join up with a crew or get to work some other way.

I'll have to change the last part of your background slightly.Since the attack happened just last night in game terms none other than the party knows of the reaping sickness.

I'd likely have you accompany these priests back to Cassomir based on an augury that one of them had cast which spoke of incoming death to Cassomir.

I can manage those changed to the story easily enough.

zomblisham: Sounds like the Houndmaster out of Darkest Dungeon for some reason. I'm fine with that though.

Oyzar: Sorry missed your question bladebound kensai is fine

EmissaryOfTheNorth: Tiefling varients are fine.

Chess and Bimpnottin thank you for the submissions. They look fine to me on first glance.

Ah sweet Fresh Blood. Just a fyi if you want my vote I accept bribes ;)

I have a gnome fighter in the works, a Marvelous fellow bound to cause the utmost of enjoyment and protection of his new found friends...

str: 4d6 ⇒ 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 4, 2) = 11 = 9
dex: 5d6 ⇒ 5d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 3, 2) = 11 = 9
con: 4d6 ⇒ 4d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4, 2) = 16 = 14
int: 5d6 ⇒ 5d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 6, 4, 4) = 21 = 14
wis: 5d6 ⇒ 5d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 1, 6, 4) = 16 = 13
cha: 4d6 ⇒ 4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 2, 1) = 6 = 5

That truly sucks as a roll, so as a Tiefling it would be

str: 9
dex: 11
con: 14
int: 16
wis: 13
cha: 3

That may be fun to play. But no,

Dotting and trying my luck on the rolls!

Str: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 2, 4, 4) = 19 -> 14
Dex: 5d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 6, 5, 5) = 21 -> 16
Con: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3, 6) = 17 -> 14
Int: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 4, 1) = 8 -> 7
Wis: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 3, 1) = 14 -> 13
Cha: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 1, 1, 1) = 6 -> 5

Hmm that sorta stifles my idea... But maybe it could work somehow?

dotting for interest. doing my rolls to see what I'm working with.

Str: 6d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 4, 6, 6, 5) = 27 17
Dex: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 6, 3) = 16 14
Con: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 4, 3, 3) = 15 10
Int: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 3, 1) = 10 9
Wis: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 4, 4) = 14 13
Cha: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 3, 1) = 14 13

Well, the Strength is good but the lack of a Con hurts. We'll see what we can throw together.

Str: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 6, 5, 1) = 18 14
Dex: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 5, 3) = 15 13+2 = 15
Con: 6d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 5, 2, 1, 6) = 16 13-2 = 11
Int: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 6, 6) = 17 16
Wis: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 6, 5) = 19 17
Cha: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 3, 4) = 14 13+2 = 15

Not bad.

Would you consider Dhampir? Not as powerful as Tiefling or Aasimar

Risbeth: I'd be hesitant and it would depend on how the dhampir was built. With some of the abilities the dhampir naturally gets it might be unbalancing with the module's content.

Racial Abilities
Dayborn, Vampiric Empathy, Resist Level Drain, Undead Resistance (+2 vs Disease & Mind Affecting), Negative Energy Affinity

Basically, no dazzled in sunlight, can talk to rats/bats/wolves, and the rest of the normal dhampir stuff.

Risbeth would be a steel-breaker brawler (you had said you wanted a front liner).

Risbeth I can work with that go ahead.

Me again as I want to make a decision for Friday, October 14 submissions will need to be in for tomorrow evening 7 pm EDT this will give enough time for the other players to review your character and send me their thoughts.

Thank you all.

Will have Risbeth done tonight then. Easy enough, just have to scale her back to 2nd level. :)
