You seem to be missing two feats, you get scribe scroll with your class, one for first level, and you get an extra skill bonus feat (any feat that gives you a +2 to two skills, Alertness, persuasive, ext.) that should play to your background to start the campaign.

I don't think I ever took this extra feat. I'll add it to Creed's list shortly. Also, are action points as described in the Eberron CS? Or, are you using other rules? Lastly, are there other house rules I need to be aware of? Good to be back. Thanks again to Utak for piloting Creed.

Yeah it looks like you need your bonus feat and I am using the action points from Eberron CS. Welcome back, you got back just in time for some interesting play.

I'm going to assume that Endurance does not fall under this category, correct?

EDIT: Nevermind. I took Athletic instead. More in line with the spirit of what you're trying to do with the bonus feat, I think. I don't own Eberron CS, but have a vague notion f how they work. How many Action Points do I have at first level?

Your Welcome. I hope I portrayed him correctly and did him justice.

Number of Action point dice/Character level

1 - 1st-7th
2 - 8th-14th
3 - 15th-20th

so at 1st level you can add the 1d6 and at 8th level its 2d6....

Number of Action points per level
1st / 5
increases by 1 every other level until 15 at the twentieth level.

Each action point is either a 1d6 roll that can be added to any 1d20 roll (attack, skill check, savings throw, ablity check) or some feats allow some other options.

And you do not carry action point over from level-to-level, correct? Whatever you don't use at first level before turning to second, you lose, right?

Correct, so use them soon.

I guess my Bluff attempt failed. My potential action would have been cool though.

I was rooting for you, Utak

Thanks.

By the way, your recent posts are awsome. LOL

As I said before, Dreamweaver is one lucky man!

[Kobold Catgirl]

*Sniff*
Jeez, I was all excited when I came up with that idea... way to spoil my plan... or did you?
(Dun dun DUN!!!)

[DM Dreamweaver]

What was suppose to be a simple pick pocket encounter to introduce you to the city crime and to introduce a down on his luck Soulblade turned into quite the encounter.

I hope everyone is enjoying the game so far.

I agree! And the game's great!

[Utak]

Real Good Time. We have an excellent band of players interacting with your fun world.

Do I sense a reoccurring villian? Or, at least, he'll be around for a few more rounds.

[French Wolf]

Great for me, but watch out if Nani ever runs a game for you.

Cheers

I agree. But things will be tough enough. I told you to sheathe your weapons and act lawful. I said, 'Now is probably the time to sheathe your weapons'. But did you listen? Noooooooooooo...

Don't be surprised if Skidd is rather unfriendly toward Galen and Scared from now on...

[Kobold Catgirl]

From now on, I use d20srd.com! No more Invisible Castle! Never!!!

[Christopher Utley]

I tried d20srd. 20 rolls, 6 nat 1's. I'll use that when I find myself wishing for character death. In the meantime, Wizards ('cause I have it saved already).

[Kobold Catgirl]

As I've said, Invisible Castle has been causing a lot of heart ache, even though I forget to link to it.

[DM Dreamweaver]

I am not going to post much until Wednesday so go ahead and role play for a while if you want.

Talk to everyone after Christmas, have a Happy Holiday.

[French Wolf]

Happy Xmas to one and all.

Raise a glass and Cheers!

[Kobold Catgirl]

Happy Yule to all!
(And I still want more presents.)

[DM Dreamweaver]

I am back. I will wait until the end of the week for everyone to check in with a post.

Galen are you out there haven't heard from you in a while?

[santinj@]

Present and accounted for ... and at work. Blah.

[French Wolf]

Ever present

[Utak]

Another killer week, but I am here.

[Utak]

French Wolf,

Could not pass up using Scardd's blank memory to throw the message bit at ya. :)

Nice re-post

Cheers

[santinj@]

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Good job French Wolf!

[Kobold Catgirl]

Sorry about the delay! But I'm back!

[French Wolf]

Thanks chaps. Very naughty question Utak and that Creed had me lost for words.

Happy New Year

[DM Dreamweaver]

Sorry about the absents but the Holidays are pretty hectic.

Christopher Utley you still playing?

[Fair Tuon Clawed]

Fair Tuon is updated.

DM Spoiler

Spoiler:

To simplify things for you.
+1 BAB, +1 Fort,
+3 skill points (autohypnosis, concentration, and know(psionics)),
+8 hits (+5(dice roll),+1con,+2(feat)),
bonus psionic feat - Narrow Mind
Additional Power points 2 (+1 base,+1wis)
Additional Power - Force screen "shield spell"

[\-*^/]

Scardd is updated.

DM

Spoiler:

Rolled a most awsome 1 for Hit Points bringing this silly Half-Orc to 9 HP

Will was increased to +3

Used 2 skill points to add 1 rank to Knowledge: Local (figured that Scardd would have questioned Galen on the trip to Keeper's Dale and learned some info.)

Gained Detect Magic as an at will ability

Took Hideous Blow as my next invocation

[Nani Wahine]

Bri is up to date!

[DM Dreamweaver]

Sorry about the delay, I got a nasty cold and staying home from work and that is were most of my posting time is at.

[Utak]

Sorry for your loss Nani.

Glad you are back though. Scardd was starting to miss Bri's sarcasm.

[Kobold Catgirl]

You have my sympathy as well. Glad to have you back.

[French Wolf]

Nani all the best to you and your family.

Regards
Andy

I'm off to work, but I just finished some early morning reading of the tavern scene so far. Nicely done everyone. This was alot of fun to skim over. Great RPing and great DMing. Awsome scene all around.

Kudos

[santinj@]

Right when Creed gets into the thick of it, I won't be able to post until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. Maybe tomorrow night.

Hey, I was in a staff meeting last night with the company big-wigs. Seems that I have been doing a pretty good job, and now they want to give me more responsibility by seeing the opening of a new clinic to increase our services. The real work should be starting in about a month. This means that I will be getting very busy, and my posting will most likely become very infrequent and sporadic. I really do not want to give up this game. We have a fun group, and I would be lying if I said I was not intrigued to find out what you have planned for Scardd. That said, I feel that it would not be fair to you , the players, or the game if my participation became almost non-existent at times. Right now, the game is in limbo before the next story arc begins which would be a opportune time for Scardd to disappear. Again, I really don’t want to drop out, but I feel that I need to be fair to you. I would appreciate your thoughts. I just don’t want to be in the middle of a Goblin battle or something, and I am holding up the game. Also, this will give you time to recruit another player if you feel the need. Let me know your thoughts, and thanks for your understanding.

[santinj@]

What is everyone using as a dice-roller? I'm using invisible castle, which I am less than pleased with. That website seems to confuse "random" with "consistently less than 9."

[French Wolf]

I am staring at a bag of dice on my table. They seem to roll well in other games but Fair Tuon Clawed isn't feeling the love yet.

In fact Bri fought much better than Tuon against the goblins. She would make a better bodyguard if anyone needed one.

Cheers

Not a problem if your busy at work. I would like you to stay even if you take some time off so we might have Scardd incapacitated by some affliction for a while. This will give you some time to do handle the new job. Something from Scardd's past could cause it, I'll have to think on it. Let me know what you think.

[French Wolf]

Dreamweaver - the idea of doubling the non lethal hit points is great. Colour me impressed and happy to steal such a simple but good idea.

Cheers

Thanks, after thinking about it the wrestling match wouldn't last very long if I didn't.

[Utak]

Dreamweaver, I too believe that you are running a fantastic tavern scene. Consider the wrestling idea and the knife game idea - stolen.

DM Dreamweaver:

Spoiler:

Dreamweaver, thank you. This project will start in about a month and probably take about six months to complete. I will still make every effort to post daily, but I may not be able to some days. I have made efforts to lighten my load, though. After the battle with the Mind Flayer, I will be retiring Beren. I mentioned this to Dragonmann a few days ago. I have had a lot of fun with him and the game, but I know I need to make choices and limit the amount of games I’m in. Thanks again for your understanding, and I will make every effort to keep to a daily schedule.

[Kobold Catgirl]

Yes, I am putting some ranks in Sleight of Hand so I can steal it more efficiently.

[DM Dreamweaver]

Utak

Spoiler:

Let me know when you want Scardd to come down with his affliction. Really if you want to jump in like you have been I will keep Roderick in the background so you could use him as a character when you have time. This should work well because if you have some time let me know and I will let you take Roderick for as long as you can and then I will take over again when you get busy. I have plans for Scardd and if he sits out the next arc that will actually work just fine. Let me know and I will probably let everyone else know the plan when we get it work out.

[Utak]

Nani, great pics. Thanks for sharing your world with us.

As for Creed’s question, my posting time is anywhere between 2:30 am to 10:30 pm EST, but I am mostly on between 2 & 4 pm EST. I am up at different hours, and sometimes I cant stop myself from having Paizo up on the net and hitting refresh several times an hour.

DM Dreamweaver:

Spoiler:

Honestly, I will leave any affliction in your capable hands. You are running an excellent game, and if you have plans for Scardd, then go for it. The main reason that Scardd has not been in the tavern scene is because the way I wrote him. Scardd does not socialize or have fun. He is very utilitarian. He is taking the potential mission seriously and feels that he needs his sleep. I am just posting silly things just to let you know that I am around. For the most part, I should be able to post little snippets on a daily basis, just not extravagant posts. But Scardd is not extravagant. If it would help the game for Scardd to become ill, then let’s go for it. If you would rather Scardd tag along, I should be able to post when needed on most days. Seriously though, either option if fine. And if Scardd is down and out, I could pick up Roderick when needed. Just let me know.
