I know you will want to talk about your characters so here you y advicecan do that. My personal advice is not to reveal your actual rolls. If you roll low and someone rolls stupid high what is that going to do for you? Or if you complain about your useless guy and someone else rolls even lower how will that feel? My advice is to just use abstracts like  “highest is Dex and Wis”or “low Int” and leave it at that but you are free to do you!

I’m not sure. I feel like rolling a 3 in Int and a -2 Int race would be straight up brag worthy

OR we all got tagged with our choices. That works too!

I -adore- when you find the perfect character picture!



Now for a name...

I pretty much got the rolls I expected from the dice roller. We don't get along.

So I went with a Human Fighter and I'll probably be using a bow because dexterity is my only decent stat. My character may also be a terrible person. Horribly beat someone, did it out of jealousy, felt pretty "Meh" about it. And my drawback is Avarice...which means if my character doesn't get more than their fair share, they get jealous. And we all know what happens when my character gets jealous. >:)

Still putting all the pieces together but it all adds up to a pretty crappy past. Still trying to decide which sex to go with (I'll probably just roll for the kicks) and then come up with a name. Is there a way to roll a name? Maybe like a d12 for name length then roll a d26 that many times for each letter? All fear Mjllrtxw!

You could randomly roll the list and then randomly roll a d12 to determine which name.

There are more lists, but this is the human pathfinder list.

In reply to Talla (msg # 6):

Oooo useful thanks!

Went with Talla's suggestion. Guess I'm a dude named Garlad now. Garlad the Fighter who's kind of a jerk. :P

Garlad sounds like an asshole name. Well done! >:D

It rhymes with Chad. That's how you can tell.

I guess I'm the party healer, unless Player One makes a divine caster.  Hopefully things will be relatively slow paced enough that we can rest between encounters, because one bard trying to keep a party of 8 on it's feet is going to be rough if we're fighting every day.  At least until we can get our hands on a wand of CLW.

Ominous Thought!

How's everyone's builds coming together? I rolled a bit low on gold but had enough for all my main gear (thank heaven's I'm not a tank though!). Just grateful I didn't roll exceptionally low on HP as a melee rogue.

It's max HP first level, unless I missed something.

I think my build worked out alright.  Torg's a pretty standard support bard; with songs and spells and the occasional untrained net attack.  Maybe a javelin if I have nothing better to do.  Plus some decent diplomacy.

The minmaxer in me is filled with terrible regret at playing any race other than human or halfling, but it'll pipe down eventually.

10. Roll for Gold, Animal Companion HP etc. and all the other finishing touches.

Max hp would be nice but I rolled because of this

That's "Animal Companion HP," not "Animal companion, HP."  Animal companions get 2 HD, and they roll for both.

Oh! Whoops awesome ty

I was not one of the people that rolled a high Wisdom (or I suppose a high Charisma) to take a Cleric or Oracle to be the healer. I will have SOME healing possibly to help out but not divine caster.

Judging by the classes we ended up with, I have a feeling a lot of people ended up with rolls similar to mine. I almost went Elven Rogue, Alchemist, or Wizard since Dexterity, Intelligence, and Constitution were my only decent rolls. And hey, what do you know? We have an Elven Rogue, an Elven Alchemist, and an Elven Wizard. I wouldn't even be able to cast spells as a Cleric and could only barely do so as an Oracle, so I'm definitely no help in the healing department.

Dice roller does not believe in variety or balanced parties. Here's hoping our second set of characters roll better after our inevitable grisly demises. :P

I guess I could have gone Druid or something wisdom based. But i didn't actually decide my class. I made a list of 10 classes that fit my stats some what, rolled, and ended up with cavalier.

Nah, you're fine. I thought about doing the same thing. The dice roller is just handicapping us because it knows we're that good.

In reply to Garlad (msg # 19):

I actually rolled decently but wis and cha where my lowest stats. Then I rngd my race. High dex and Int from elf meant a trap oriented rogue would work well :)

Just pool money and buy a CLW wand and you will be fine...probably :P

I rolled pretty good. I look at my Con and think I'm going to die. But at least I'm not playing a upfront melee class...wait...hm.

In reply to Dungeon Master (msg # 23):

Stealth checks and sneak attacks are my friend

Yeah we'll see how this goes.

On the other hand, I'm looking forward to seeing how the 2nd round of randomly-rolled characters come out as well. =P

In reply to Rynwyrd Darkmoon (msg # 26):

Expecting people to die quickly?

In reply to Amara (msg # 27):

I do. :P

This is Praguepride we're talking about after all.

In reply to Verna Underbough (msg # 28):

To be fair yea all it takes is a bad con roll to make you extra splattery.

I, for one, intend to live forever.  Negative CON modifier and all.

Good luck on that trying to stand behind shorty. I'll be standing behind you ;)

Guess my sheet is done, now to get started on my narrative.

Well...maybe. It will hopefully not come too quick. But I must admit it was a little fun to try and come up with a viable character from random rolls.

Alright gang. If possible I'd like to get character sheets locked down mechanically tomorrow so we can start Sunday or Monday.

Who's ready for a fun hybrid/custom adventure leading into a brand new never before seen AP!?

I know I am!!!

Lol, should be interesting to say the least!

I'm ready whenever!

So just as food for thought:

Moggrim, Garlad and Talla are all dropping/have dropped which currently leaves us with this for a party composition:



Also I may be bringing on another player to bring you guys up to a full 6 people. I know we lost 3 but the plan was always to start a bit wide and winnow down to the people who will actually stick around and not drop 3 weeks in like...apparently 1/3 of the players do.

Torgan is going to remain a half-orc bard.  I was tempted to have him get body-swapped with Sorshen, but then he'd lose his sweet, sweet half orc traits.

I like how Amara came out of Rng, not just stat-wise but a surprising backstory that twisted and turned in odd ways and really made me like her character. I'm definitely sticking with her. Plus the Detect Magic at-will (TY Fey alternates) is so helpful for exploring.

Oh, I should mention that inspire courage increases Ryn's bomb damage.  I double checked, and it counts as a weapon.

okay so to confirm
Weaver is in a house? And the scythe wielding lady is outside?

No if you check the map, they are both inside.

It increases direct hits but not splash...

@DM: Right, that might be an important distinction.

I think we're all waiting on the bad guys' turn, right?

okay so the map is gone? I'm a little lost on room setup and whether or not i can reach the weaver.
