Is that a real world version of Yoda?!


Male Pale Master

haha! no, its from the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

Wow, I knew it existed, but that was kind of a shock...I guess the kids are level 1, right? Face the avatar of Tiamat and an epic sorcerer on a black pegasus, while you have like 5hp? What a shitty DM!

What's the foot ratio per square? I'm thinking Bree might swim across.


Male Orc Expert 5

Rolling HP
4d8 ⇒ (6, 4, 5, 1) = 16

Think people will like what I'm doing. She'll certainly be interesting the angle I'm taking her.

@ Shifty:

How often are people bit by taipans(Oxyuranus scutellatus)?

Snake bite, from these and a range of other nasties, is actually relatively common. We have had a few overseas troops over on exercise die from being bitten - and its stupid stuff like not rolling your sleeping bag when you get out for piquets in the night.

Simply put, when they get back in the bag they find they have a friend in there with them, and then it all goes badly.

Similar thing happened in my bag one night, but it had two arms and legs and decided to get in my sleeping kit, but thats a different story.

So for clairity the HOR game on Zs profile says fourth level. Do I start at 3rd or 4th? I'll start with a 3rd and if I need to add a level I will. Let me know how you want wealth done.

Roll Up:

Set 1
4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 4, 6) = 22= 18
4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 3, 1) = 10= 9
4d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 1, 5) = 14= 13
4d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 6) = 11= 10
4d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 5, 6) = 17= 16
4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 5, 6) = 22= 17

Set2
4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 6, 3) = 13
4d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 2, 4) = 14
4d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 4, 1) = 14
4d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3, 1) = 7
4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 1, 2) = 9
4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 4, 6) = 22

Set 1 it is.


VC - Sydney, Australia

Hmm well in Runes/Runelords we are all still 3rd, 4th coming soon no doubt.

Second Darkness/Riddles we are 2nd and 3rd (would assume all be 3rd shortly)

HoLight and HoDarkness are both 5


Male Orc Expert 5

So, nerdy shy half orc girl raised by gnomes trying to find her very strange niche. Quite happy how she's turning out. Tough finding that niche in that group but I think it'll perform quite well.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Not all of us in HoR are half-orc, we also have a half-angel and and a half-hag -- then there is that boring human which causes us to have to use light sources (or I would assume that is the case since I don't know anyone in the mysterious Saviours)

If you say it can't be done then you are just trolling. I know for sure that when I was using one in CounterStrike I could totally pwn with it, and CS is a 100% accurate MilSim that was designed for top secret black level covert ops. I know this because a guy on MoH told me in Teamspeak and he showed proof on the internet that he was a Tier 1 operator.

Not only was he the second guy on the balcony with the SAS on that fateful day, but he was actually one of the dudes who trained and went in with seal team 6.

I totally rocked the last round of Airsofting with one at our LARP War, and as the airsoft guns are 100% totally accurate replicas that provides PROOF.

Anything said otherwise is just plain FIAT and badwrongfun poor GM'ing.

Did that sound about right?

Indeed it did.

Dunno what the go is with start wealth.

We have a Ranger/Pally/Rogue(Thug)/Cleric/Bard.
Overall the party is 'mostly positive and good', as nice as it can be with a pair of half orcs... we had three half orcs, but one left and now we are sad.

So what would you guys most like to see join. I am most familiar with the martial classes, but if one of those is not needed then I will make what you need.

Honestly couldn't say myself. We are extremely caster light I can say for certain. We have one arcane caster whose a bard and not even in the group officially yet. The party's door is revolving to the point where Karlan might not be bothered to learn last names. :P

I can say in terms of front liners we are pretty happy to charge in and rip and tear. Very few thigns survive a round in melee range of the tank formation.


VC - Sydney, Australia

I agree with the above in that at the moment we can hit stuff REALLY hard and tends to result in shorter fights. With that out of the way, we have little in the way of Arcane, and a Wizzy/Magus/Witch/Sorc could all fit the bill. That said, I am happy to make do with whatever, as long as it can kill stuff!


You guys like a buffer type caster that can further increase the choppy bits and such or would you rather a nuke dropper? I'll start reading up on how casters work and come up with somethin' for ya's.

A debuffer/controller would probably serve us better since I'm sure between celestra and Ailrenthaseomthingoranother the buffs are good and covered and a nuker would just be struggling to shoot around us. Ourissue is not getting chopped up a bit as well. I should say it's inaccurate to call us a tank formation.

It's more like we're this group of hefty missiles that collide into things and explode on them. Even Karlan with his relatively high AC seems to get beat up a lot. Hopefully I can get that breastplate and change that at least.

I'm thinking give harry the shortbow since I don't think he has a ranged weapon and Kanyk the longbow since he'll be making better use of it and split the arrows between them. Then we can sell off the bastard sword I can pass my armor to kanyk if he feels he needs it, and work out the rest to an even split. I already predict a very small portion of gold to Karlan.

Harry has next to no gear as all he started with was a tree branch and his underpants.

Leather armour and an Axe and thats about all she wrote :p

That said, there was M/Work studded that he'd want if Kanyk didn't.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

Bree:

Check: Make a Swim check once per round while you are in the water. Success means you may swim at up to half your speed (as a full-round action) or at a quarter of your speed (as a move action). If you fail by 4 or less, you make no progress. If you fail by 5 or more, you go underwater.

Yeah Karlan's already way above everyone else since he's currently the only one wielding a magic weapon currently. Add the armor to that and it's pretty high. :P

Still I imagine after selling some crap off that'll even out. Karlan jsut needs a little gold so he can take that craft skill he's been cultivating and turn it into masterwork shield spikes if he can. Add that he's aware of the wealth discrepancy and he's not really into wealth and its trappings to begin with and he'll happily take a tiny bit of gold in comparison to everyone else.

I don't mind the frontline getting a bigger slice of pie up front, especially at low levels a bit of a boost makes a massive difference, so best that Kanyk and Karlan ARE getting that bit extra early.

Oddly enough Karlan probably could take that money and give Kanyk and harry both masterwork weapons. Just depends on how much downtime we'll have. It's unfortunate he can't make them magic weapons without some steep investment in either spellcraft or feats.


Do I need to look crafting magic items for the crew? Seeing that I am just rolling into this game I'm pretty open on suggestions on a way to best fill my slot.

Male Halforc Ranger 5

I think Kanyk would be more than happy to pass on the studded leather, especially as it looks from the picture of the bugbear to be a series of straps, a codpiece thing and some nipple piercings.

I think he is currently aiming for something a little more protective than his hide armour and Karlan's old armour slightly reshaped would be perfect, aiming for his own breastplate at some point but it can wait. Other than that I think a masterwork earthbreaker would be nice, so that eventually the magical shizzle can occur.


It's lookin' like I'll be writing up a gnome caster, either wizard or sorcerer.

DMZZ:
I think a fun way to slip into this game will be to have me found in a sack. Gnomes and goblins be on the terms they are and all that, probably lookin' to eat me or something. Also, if I go the wizard route, how many spells do I have per level to add to my spellbook and what is starting wealth? I saw that a wizard can pay per spell to be added to his book. Is this how you work?


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

Bilbo:

Use WBL : 2

And yes, you may buy spells for your money, but you don't start with any more spells than you got through level progression (actually the party has only found one scroll by now!)


Male Orc Expert 5

I guess I should ask what wealth level I should start at for berry since they seem to have some discrepency between actual level and the table.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

If you are considering a sorcerer, look at the Orc-Bloodline, kinds fun. It gives +1 per die on damage spells, so even if you do not focus on attack spells, those that you have are more effective -- and you get +2, +2, +2 on strength at higher levels which will make you stronger than the other orcs. I have a Orc Bloodline sorcerer which I am trying to get into a campaign right now, was a lot of fun to create. Wandering ranger who was unable to have children with his wife came across a scene of carnage with a dead orc witch doctor lying atop a dead annis hag with a small baby coated in orc blood alive and between them. Thought that made for an interesting way to get the Orc Bloodline without being an orc.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

Starting wealth is WBL : 2


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

May be a dumb question, but what is WBL?


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Zyren:
Well, yes, but I was wanting to know about how many feet the distance was so I could see how many rounds I could expect to be in the water! If it were too far to my arbitrary opinion, I would have chosen a different action. Oh well, for the sake of keeping the game going as smoothly as possible she's swimming now.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

The wealth by level table.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

Sorry Bree, my bad, you reach the other side in one round.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Lol - I just gave myself stuff that seemed reasonable for my starting station and level 3, figured it seemed about right.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

lol^^ If it fits the table more or less that's cool...don't turn up with a can opener +5!

Okie dokie at least that's easily taken care of. When Kanyk finishes putting the haterade all over this goblin we'll gethe the loot splitted officially after I run down the lsit of crap that's been picked up.


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

Zyren, bah, no problem. I know that my insanity often makes it hard for people to understand my train of thought :P


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

She started with a mithral masterwork longsword - not quite to +5 can opener. Initially I was going to give her a Flute of DM Control, but then I would have to do your work so I axed that idea.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

you're so generous.

I recommend this book


Dungeon Master

Hmm? That looks very interesting! What kind of stuff is in it?


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

You know the series?


Dungeon Master

No, I am not familiar with it. Is it a spoof or does it actually have useful stuff in it?


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

The series is mega useful, maybe the best sourcebook series at all.
But three guies:

Gamesmasters
female gamers
Rules Lawyers

are rather humourous. I men who needs feats to slay female gamers?!

Still funny though.

All the other guides I can heartily recommend.


Female

Still need to finish buying equipment. Sadly having such little gold for a gear heavy class is painful. Still have to buy potions and poisons.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

What kind of campaign was she made for and why did it implode?
