I was thinking of reusing a third level halfling monk that I had created for another game (Kicsi Leszúr) assuming that I can get her to fit into Talos properly that is.

Shouldn't be a problem, I did change alignment to Lawful Neutral. I didn't really specify, all characters for this, should be neutral something.

What method of character generation? Roll, point buy or array?

I'm leaning toward an Eldritch Knight, probably a Stout Halfling, maybe with the Entertainer Gladiator background.

Hrm! My first D&D 5E character. Will our party need a more dedicated healer (e.g. the arcane healer) or are a druid's healing skills sufficient? If the latter, then I'm nosing around Ranger, an arcane magic-user of some sort, or maybe something roguish. Attributes are below:

Hrm. Re-roll aces didn't do what I thought it did. So trying again (to me an 'ace' is a one.. and re-roll means roll over, so obviously I got something wrong there!).

I got 6 1s, so re-rolling those.
Edit: and re-rolling 1d6 for the [6,2] above in case you'd prefer I used the first set of rolls.
Edit2: Ok. That yields the following:
"re-roll aces" roll:
(6,5,2,2) -> 13
(4,5,2,5) -> 14
(5,4,3,5) -> 14
(2,5,5,4) -> 14
(3,4,2,4) -> 11
(4,5,1,5) -> 14 (do you re-roll a 1 when you re-roll a 1?)
Following roll
(3,6,6,6) -> 18
(3,6,6,2) -> 15
(3,6,4,3) -> 13
(4,5,5,5) -> 15
(3,4,4,1) -> 11 (do you re-roll a 1 when you re-roll a 1?)
(4,5,2,6) -> 15
I think I should take the first set, since it represents the truer case of "what I rolled" and doesn't have an 18 in it. But will defer to the GM on which is the most pure of the two and take that one. Sorry for the mess up with the re-roll aces.

Are there any race restrictions or class restrictions from the PHB other than no clerics and no paladins?

So where are we so far? An eldritch knight, monk, and where did you land falryx?
I'll go arcane something if you'd rather do Ranger or rogue.

I think I'll go with the arcane cleric, I've wanted to try out a warlock, and this adds an interesting spin on things.
Oct 12, 2015 2:15 pm
Sounds good. I may monkey around with a ranger or a sorcerer -- if the warlock and sorcerer are too similar I'll eschew that route.

Okay, submitted. I'll iron out the details of my backstory tomorrow morning. I'm pretty excited to be a scholarly cleric type advancing the Crimson Crusade.
Oct 14, 2015 4:20 pm
Ok. I'm thinking about an elven draconic bloodline sorcerer who uses a bow and supplements the bow with his magic. Sort of an arcane ranger versus a more druidic one. Need to poke around at the spells to understand how the choice of weapons inhibits the spellcasting options...
Oct 17, 2015 1:00 am
Okay, a few things, I don't monitor weight... within reason. You can't carry 10 siege weapons on your back, lol. I have tweaked a few things on character sheets and added bags of holding. I love those things. Again, I don't monitor weight, so if it fits in the 2' opening, it can go in. It's an inter-dimensional item, and in my opinion, never fills up, unless you open it under a lake... magic fail-safe is in place. Also, I don't require regents or ingredients for spells, unless it's a certain item like a special staff, mace, etc.

Aramil Liadon was the son of an Elven father and a human mother. His mother died giving birth to him, and so he was raised by his father, a former captain in the army. He ultimately joined the army at 23, where he would meet Aelar Siannodel, a wood elf and a ranger. The two ultimately courted and married, and left the military. However, hearing about the rampant chaos going on in Talos, Aramil decided to try and find the Crimson Crusade to join their ranks. On his journey, however, he discovered his druidic abilities and is still somewhat confused s to how he received these powers. He has grey hair that is slowly becoming whiter and has brown eyes with hints of green and gray in them.

Hey guys! Looks like I'm going to be joining the campaign at some point. I'm thinking, if it is allowed, of doing a Fighter/Rogue multiclass, Fighter/2 or 5, with Rogue/x, leaning toward Fighter 2. He's a Half-Elf who is purely a professional, no-nonesense, strictly business kind of individual to whom it makes no difference whether business is done with a gilded tongue or with cold, hard steel.
