So much goodness....I'm going to have fun with these boys!

Hello everyone! The Bard Ysgard is here and likely going Lore.

I see Murli is going that route as well. Nice. =D

I too had originally planned on Forge Cleric, LOL!

So I went hard against type and am making a Wizard! =)

another arcane caster (though being a warlock i'm not exactly a arcanist per say)

Friendly family cleric here eager to act as the hearthmother to the expedition.

Bugrem Stonesinger is the a knight-errant, a mastiff-mounted Underdark Ranger of the city that fell to dragonfire; his is one of the few survivors, ferried to safety as a child with his clan's retainers and his father's signet ring. He was raised, in part, under the protection of Clan Stoneaxe and his lore and his customs are a mix of theirs and Clan Stonesinger.

He travels with: Brok, his mastiff; Jathoun, his aging protector; together with Drogo and Vigo, two halfling servants who mutter quite a bit

His clan's sigil is a mason's hammer and chisel, crossed with the hammer upright

Will post some more information in the relevant party threads

One man shieldwall fighter ready to grind his enemies into submission. Give no ground!

Infantry Officer back in the good ol days when Dammerhall had an actual army!

Kroland was away in battle when the disaster struck Dammerhall and he has sworn to walk its halls once more or die trying

Planning to go battlemaster and would likely be very well known to anyone involved in martial affairs, likely knows a most of you by name but wouldn't likely know much else unless you fight on the front lines or took part in the previosu expeditions.

Pleasure to be playing with you all

Kroland, with the whole Rocksinger/Stonesinger thing our characters either need to be long-lost relatives, sworn enemies, or in a band?

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 41):

I agree haha, it was accidental I promise haha

I like the idea that our families were the same but had a split for forgotten reasons. Both probably claiming their name was the original but no one actually remembering for certain. Don't think we have to be sworn enemies but can definitely be some family grudge or general distrust haha

What are your thoughts?

Backstory works for me, a gentle grudge over the "original" clan and actual footsolider vs orphan playing knight, but back to back in a fight if someone challenges either?

Hey guys! Looking forward to the fun. I'm playing your basic fighter with a big hammer.

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 41):

I think it sounds like a part of the family broke off and started a new clan.

In reply to Murli Frostjaw (msg # 45):

Absolutely! Of course, Bugrem believes it was the Rocksingers who broke off and Kroland believes it was the Stonesingers that broke off, which is clearly misguided

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 39):

Rumours follow Bugrem - whose ranging takes him to the fringes of the wilderness, badlands and the underdark - both that he hunts greenskins with a fury, and that he consorts with them. Certainly he is a dwarf who carries the weight of his lost clan hard, though I'm not intending to play him as an aloof loner type, more someone who has been pushed to his limits

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 39):

Reizzok and Burgrem probably know each other if he was raised in part with Clan Stoneaxe, I'll post in that other thread though.

Made my decision for Reizzok's build. Since others have shifted away from Forge cleric I'm going to stay with that in my plan, but drop the artificer for Fighter levels instead. Going for Rune Knight (fire rune at least to boost theme and boost tools).

Starting Fighter, then multi to Cleric through Cleric 4 or 5 and see from there is my thought.

Reizzok will be proficient with a boat load of tools though he'll only get to start with one set from background so probably smith's tools so he can craft or repair people's stuff while we're traveling if necessary.

EDIT - @GM we are allowed to use the Tasha's options for race/class? Want to double check before I get too far.

yeah thats basically what im imagining haha


We have something common haha

In reply to Bugrem Stonesinger (msg # 46):

Those poor misguided stonesinger's, brings tear to me eye that they could have been led astray for so long... Everyone knows the rocksinger's were the orignal family!

i have smithing tools atm plus you get it automatically when you pick rune knight so probs worth picking up different tools at first level :D

Are we starting at 1st level?  Or higher?

In reply to Joskar Dunbeard (msg # 49):

I'm pretty sure just 1st level, but you're right I don't see it 100% specified in the char gen thread.

Same

Well I am building for 1st level anyway. Now slowly carrying it to the sheet here,will take a bit with my bad eyesight.

We are 1st level.

Nice find. I was beginning to doubt myself :D

I'm just waiting on confirmation if we can use the Tasha's options for race/classes or not before I finalize my sheet
