Regarding the teamwork feat, I'm completely fine going with Outflank. It might benefit the group still best.
And the templates surely are not equal in power. Looks like we managed to pick pretty much the least powerful ones. Ophelia's half-dragon might be the only "upper-tier" template. But for me also, I got the character idea immediately after reading the Trompe l'oeil description, so had to go with it :)
What do we want Timeon to be? A meatshield, a lackey, corrupt him into some truly wicked murderer? We can build the class from there. And as Araton noted, I doubt he'll be very meaningful asset in combat.

combine Haunted One with this template here.
The ghosts of your ancestors are unholy and have corrupted and continue to change you according to their will. You are a Haunted Unholy One.

I think he's best suited as a lackey, I just want him to be useful if he's going to travel with us. That's why I brought up putting a bow in his hands and making him our archer.
We could also build on his previous knightly training to make him more of a frontline defender. He'll never be a Knight of the Alerion now, but that doesn't mean he can't be a knight. Maybe some kind of sword-and-board frontliner who can provide some passive support bonuses?

Full disclosure: Araton hand-held me through the character creation process with Ophelia because I am kind of a novice at this level of gameplay, so my idea with the half-dragon template was like, "Oooh, half-dragon sounds neat" -- so hopefully, I can live up to the expectation. :) Feel free (all of you!) to call me out if I'm forgetting one of my many abilities.
Outflank looks awesome, especially since I planned to be setting up many flanking situations to benefit from that good, good sneak attack bonus.
How much gold is Felthun putting in to the painting? That will determine how long it takes to paint a portrait. Unless it's just a roleplay thing that doesn't have a price then you can take however much time you want to.
I've only got 103 GP left, but I don't mind putting it towards a RP thing :)
RAW, it only takes me 2 weeks to complete a "memorable work," while taking 10. Ideally, I'd like to spend that extra time touching it up. I'll take 100 gold off my sheet now though.
I'm getting sick and couldn't get caught up with every game tonight. I will post tomorrow - my students are all finishing projects and need very little handholding right now.
Cross-posting my untouched games.
Posting again - I was getting sick yesterday, and today I have a cough so bad I feel like I have a pulled muscle in my chest, lol. I will try to get something up soon. Apologies ❤️
I know this is a slow moving game, but is everyone good? Haven't seen anyone post for a while. :)
Apologies! Life has been happening. I will get a post up soonish <3
Getting a post up soon, catching up from an extended absence at work is kind of a nightmare...
I will have a post up tonight; schoolwork and a hectic week have limited my time by a great deal. I am excited to start making our way to the north!
I am sorry about my limited posting the last little while; I've been traveling and between getting to see some old friends, and the massive amount of jetlag, I completely lost track of time. The evil thing to do would be to never mention it again, but alas, I only play an evil character online. Sorry about that folks, now that I'm back home, I should be more consistent!
Unrelated, did we settle on outflank?
Welcome back!
I believe we did settle on Outflank. I need to add it to my alias...
I think we did, yes. I need to get it added, too.

Been a crazy week. Will have an update tonight sometime.
I picked up a friend from the airport this weekend and have been spending time with them - pardon my silence!
I'll have a post up tonight <3
I do apologize for the timing of this, friends, but RL has my immediate concern and I need to address it. With that said, I will be stepping away from all of my games for the foreseeable future. It was a pleasure gaming with you all and I wish you all the best.
That's unfortunate. Be well.
Oh, dear. I hope everything goes well with you, Araton. Best of luck!
All right. Unfortunate, but I understand that RL comes first. Best of luck!
Is there a large enough pile of crates that I could move myself and the captain behind so his men can't see us?
As nothing's really happened in the game for a while, I'm going to drop out--I need to concentrate on the games I'm in that are moving along. Have a good time if things pick up again, guys!
I was hoping for an answer on the crates. I'm just going to assume there are some.
Hey again guys, sorry about the lengthy delay. I was very sick for the last 2 weeks. Thankfully i'm doing much better now. Let us continue.
How are the captain and his men standing, and how many are there total?
The captain and 4 men with swords on the Frosthamar are all next to each other. 8 men with bows are on their boat.
The frosthamar being full of cargo is basically difficult terrain all round but the crates aren't so high as to give cover or hide anyone unless you weren't standing. The captain doesn't seem willing to move far from his men and there isn't a ton of space either.
No worries. I hope you're feeling better.
