Think I just hadn't submitted the last of the changes on my sheet.  It's all updated and set now.

Will get to crunching numbers by end of day tomorrow. In the middle of tech joy as I just replaced both my computer and monitor. Good news, new monitor is huge! Bad news, have to learn how to make web pages fill the screen the right way.

No worries, congrats on the new setup.

Thanks, super nerd excited. Working all from home right now so hopefully big screen means less eye strain for me!

I’m nearly there. Just trying to decide if variant human (skill + feat) is worth it.

It depends!  I went variant human but Mobile was just too good to pass up.  Especially since I can actually let Sef move around in combat rather than having to hold the line (or so I hope).

I think a lot of the time the standard human array can be worth it.  Especially if you are able to point-buy rather than use the standard array.  It let's you keep your secondary stats fairly high while also letting you use your early ASIs for your main stat then later ASIs for feats.

Yeah. The skill helps fulfill my concept better, but overall not that valuable. The feat is nice to have but nothing specific jumps out for me. Thinking the raw stats end up making more sense.

Ok. I think the sheet is done. Description is up as well, though I may make some changes.

Suggestions on languages? I have two to pick.

I would say if you have a reasonable explication as to why you would know it, Draconic might be useful.

Hello everyone, this is Nashford posting to prove my existence. As was stated my intention is to play a halfling bard. My high concept for my character is for him to live his life as a compulsive gambler who uses adventuring to fund his escapades. He tends to travel a lot looking for odd jobs, so it should be easy to roll him into backstory shenanigans if anyone wants.
  I'm cool with feats as well so I guess I'm with the herd on that. For character text I think I'll go with Gray.

Alright, I am going to shoot for a start time of Wednesday which I believe is the sixth, which will give, I believe, plenty of time to finish up character creation. Does that sound good to everyone?

Kinda figured. But don’t have a plausible reason why I might know it.

A Dragonborn friend?

I should be ready to roll by Wednesday even though I feel like I'm behind the group. But I'm getting things worked on and should be all sown up and ready to play by the end of today if the time gods are kind to me.

And the part I always seem to suck at is Starting Gear. What did you all do for starting gear? Take the gold roll and buy it? Just trying to do what the group does on this.

What is starting gear?  Don't we all barely have any possessions and use our fists to deal with our problems rather than crossbows and swords and other expensive metal accouterments?  No?  Just Sef?

...Well I'll be going now.

Per the Character Creation thread:



So rolling for gold and buying equipment IS the option.

Sorry, I was just making a terrible joke.  I collected my pittance from rolling wealth!

Ok, I think I am done with my character sheet.

Cool and thanks for the help everyone, appreciate it!

I have posted the little pre-adventure I said I would post for everyone to read and decide how a few things were handled, no crunch needed for this, but it will be a good jumping on point for character development between you all if you want before the game proper begins.

Do you want us to post in that thread and discuss, or just post what our character would do, and more OOC or IC sort of thing?

Post in that thread please, as for OOC and IC, do as much or as little IC stuff as you all want, but ultimately it is simply a OOC thread for discussing how the party reacts to the situations. But rp is not discouraged on my part.

The game has officially begun and the first post is up.

Brock you can give me an Intelligence Skill check with advantage if and when you would like to recall any knowledge you might have about any persons or locations associated with the town.

Also as an added reward for the last mission, you will all start with a point of inspiration.

I find it customary to always find some reason to role a check for a random, unimportant event before the game really starts.  That way I know how the dice roller is going to treat me for the game.

16:50, Yesterday: Secret Roll: Sefira Irongut rolled 6 using 1d20+4.  Dexterity Check (for a random action).

Apparently Sef will be comic relief this game!

EDIT:  Oh, also.  Sef is a human not a gnome, Brock.
