Good, having the weight of the ammo halved goes a long way. I have to admit thios is the very fiorst time in my life I play a small character (human fan since AD&D times).
What about the 'dropping the backpack' thing? Is it viable? I know some of my friends told me they used that trick when they played RQ. They cut the straps and after the combat they sewn them together again.
The other is to remember that you don't need to wear the pack in a fight; every campaign I've played thus far to a point where encumbrance mattered also allowed packs to be shrugged off as a free action, maybe a swift at most.
If it wasn't for this preanswer question my inclination probably would have been to set it as part of a move action to start with.
The difference between that and a swift is mostly semantics, so we will begin with swift and rebalance during if needed.
No need to dismember the packs. Pretty easy to shrug off a backpack. Probably easier than slicing the straps.
Sounds good to me :)
Also, I've picked Craft (Weaponsmith) to be able to make bullets and fix the sling if needed, but you might rule that there's a specific craft for that.

Oops, sorry if I'm stepping on your patch, BC! Just offering personal campaign experience as an example.

No prob. Same team. ;)

ElbowtotheFace: Grattfaulk - Human Invulnerable Rager (Barbarian)
Looks mostly good to me. Only thing is I don't see a drawback. Did you already select one?
GM BC4Realz, I was thinking of setting up a Fetchling Inquisitor as either arcane or maybe even skilled.
I'm planning to use both the Questioner (Magic Tactics Toolbox, Primary) and Skeptic (Haunted Heroes Handbook, Secondary) archetypes together.
One bit of question on your take on stacking them together:
The Questioner has their entire investigator talents (in general) altered in that they can never the alchemist discovery talent but can take any other ones as normal (since they trade out alchemy for Bardic spellcasting) and the Skeptic replaces the investigator talent gained at 7th level with something else.
Would it be okay to combine the two archetypes or should I just stick with just one of them (Questioner, most likely)?
Anybody gotta free character sheet generator I could plug my alchemist Moonshiner into to get the rest of her stats? I'm using a phone to postPathbuilder. Awesome, accurate, free app. No ads.
Holy crap thnx this thing is cool beans!!
Any further thoughts or comments on the submitted characters? And on that subject, I think everyone who's going to submit has by now.
Agreed.
Indeedily.
. Might as well see what my character gets to work with this amount of gold.

Any of them, no choice has been made yet.
Imma play her like that mean ol Australian lady from that crocodile Dundee movie with all the dogs with the motives of a Cajun deepwoods Moonshiner with a disdain for authority, nobility,and dumb-dumbs.
I'm thinking that this recruitment is dead. The GM not appearing over a week is hardly a good sign for the stability of the campaign to come either.
He did say "hope to close recruitment on February 3rd and select party members by the end of the weekend" and its barely been a week since the GM's last post. I'm not giving up yet.
Yup. We'll see, let's give it time.
Feb 6 and no show.
Shame, looked good
I will still hold out hope, this end of the month has been really messy for a lot of people.

Perhaps, but not taking a couple of minutes as a courtesy to post something like "life's busy, recruitment is extended/delayed/canceled, apologies" doesn't say a whole of good about the prospective GM.
And I do get that this is a game and all, but that doesn't excuse just blowing it off with not so much as a peep to people whose own time matters just as much to them.
Heh, it is tempting to make some adjustments to equipment layout or even to make some spell changes. ;)
I am dropping out from this game.
The no response to pm/recruitment thread is just not what I am looking for in a GM.
Yeah, no word to mid-week...I'm recycling this alias. Love to have joined, but a sudden halt after a previous 9 month haitus is not a good sign. Sorry.
