Now that it's unhaunted, I don't see Bjorn using that warhammer.
It can go in the pawn pile.
Haldin, did you get a chance to think about my request to lower the price of the amulet of mighty fists to put in line with the pricing for brass knuckles? I don't really like brass knuckles thematically for a brawler but with your ruling they're drastically better than the amulet.
DM Haldhin |
Yes, I'm fine with the pricing you suggest. I thought I had already answered that, sorry for the delay in my response.

The Dog of Sarenrae - so I thought Alexei's spontaneous prayer in the middle of Harrowstone was a great moment and I wanted to take advantage of it. I hope everyone is okay with this little interlude, but if you have some concerns, or if it's totally breaking the game/immersion for you, please let me know.
Alexei Dawnreach |
I'm absolutely okay with it, of course. He's already provided some information that is relevant, now is just the matter of figuring out how to get him to tell us more things we want to know, without actually telling us anything.
It's like dealing with a devil, except sorta in reverse. ;)
Bjorn Stonehand |
Well he sort of already helped us on our way.
The professor was clever and knew what he was doing. If he tasked us with taking those books back to the university, that seems like our next stop.
Lucius Cassius |
Well then how do I fit in to all of this? He didn't even mention me in his will like the rest of you.
Lucius Cassius |
I don't believe you. I wasn't even invited to the wake. And besides I had my acolyte duties to attend to.
Bjorn Stonehand |
Well considering that Korthul, Asha, Oliar, and the dwarf were all apparently in as well (it must have been really long), it's entirely possible you were in there too.
Korvus Slade |
Lucius didn't get the invite because the Whispering Way stole it from his mailbox! That was their whole purpose here in Ravengro - to steal Warden Hawkran's spirit and Lucius' mail!
Actually, stealing the Warden's spirit was just their cover... Their true purpose was to steal Lucius' mail!
DM Haldhin |
I assumed Lucius has a list of questions to ask once he returns to town.
In other news, everyone can go ahead and get ready to level up! You're not quite there, but close enough to start the process. Please let me know if you're planning anything unusual.
Bjorn, feel free to choose whichever path you want to take.
Lucius Cassius |
I do have a list and level 4 is actually a really boring level up. I get nothing cool from it.
Lucius Cassius |
Alexei gets a revelation and 2nd level spells, Harold gets his martial artist Exploit Weakness and you get either a fighter feat or that other thing. I guess Korvus is in the same boat though.
Alexei Dawnreach |
That, I do. I also get to start using my super awesome Human Oracle Favored Class Bonus, instead of boring HP.
Decided to size everybody more properly: Lucius is a tiny, tiny man.
Still waiting on better discriptions so I can try and finish this off. We're pretty cool fellows, we need a pretty cool picture of us.
Bjorn Stonehand |
Bjorn is in an armless breastplate with an armored kilt with matching heavy boots.
I take offense at Bjorn being smaller than Harold. =P I imagined him being quite a bit bigger (he's got both higher strength and constitution).
Lucius Cassius |
Lucius' eyes are blue btw.
This is kind of what Lucius' armor looks like.
Bjorn Stonehand |
I was thinking more the armored kilt you see on roman breastplates.
I'll see if I can find a good image.
Alexei Dawnreach |
Here's the rough draft of Bjorn + Lucius.
I attempted a single of the little patterns on your kikko armor, Lucius, and was like NOPE I AM AWFUL AT THIS GAME. I hope you don't hate my ineptitude.
Additionally, Bjorn, I went with a very simple kilt, because I don't think I could draw it very well. I can totally try and make changes, though, so don't be afraid to tell me if you'd like me to change it.
Bjorn Stonehand |
Looks good. Can you shrink Bjorn's shield? It's a little round buckler.
I like the fact that Lucius is the only one smiling.
Lucius Cassius |
It's okay, I forgive you.
And Lucius is the only one smiling because the rest of you have had your senses of humor removed.
Oh and Bjorn is wearing a dress!

Alexei, if you're looking for inspiration for Harold, I modeled him off a slightly better dressed Dredger from the 1st Sherlock Holmes film (the Robert Downey Jr. version). He was the big French thug that got thrown around by the primitive taser and almost took Sherlock out with a hammer and an entire ship.
