USGA_Elite Character Discussions

This thread is for discussing USGA_Elite's character please do not post anything here that is not related to USGA_Elite's character and yes collaborating with USGA_Elite is consider fair postings.

Please make your rolls in here and outline what your are doing so that I can give you feedback on the world. Do note though this game borrows heavily from the Forgotten Realms so you can use information from that setting to outline your background.

so i see that we already have one bard in the group. that was honestly my first pick so is there another role yall would want me to fill?

im thinking of a halfling monk or rogue

if you want to play a bard there is no reason we cannot have 2 bards -- I have a group that made a whole troupe

however we actually do not have a Bard --- Barb as in short for Barbarian-Paladin

Here are my rolls.Results : 12, 15, 11, 15, 13, 17

Well eventually yes --- but there is a Caveat -- you can only start the game with 10gp all the rest needs to be spent on resources of some sort, however if you need help with that just ask

I also just added an equipment spoiler please use that to show your gear as that speeds things up dramatically on my end

Okay I will revisit this and post something here in the next day or two -- but it should work just fine

BTW I thought you wanted to play a Bard ?? ;)

Well now that I know bard is available I would like some input from the group if y’all would rather a bard or a monk coming along. If I do monk I am interested in doing the "Way of the 4 Elements"

Ask that in general chat just in case they are not paying attention to your creation thread

We have a barbarian/paladin and a wizard. Do what you like to play. Remember that this will be a game with a wilderness theme. So be careful with the bard, as they can be very city-based

Well its wilderness and village so there are elements of many potential things here it all depends upon what you the players choose to pursue and Bards are fairly good all the way around if you ask me -- of course Monks can be pretty good themselves

I will go with my first choice and play a halfling bard then. I’ve got the bones of the character already. Working on flushing it out.

Okay sounds good

I’m a little confused on how to use the equipment spoiler.

And when entering your spells, the drop down menu on the right, is that the stat used I’m my casting of the spell or is it the stat the target uses to save from it?

Also on the skills. Is there a way to mark expert? Or is it just proficient or not proficient?

If you are talking the character sheet you can alter the skill name to add the verbiage "(expert)" to denote that but other than you can cover it in the Feats/Abilities column
The former if you put in your Attribute it calculates both your Attack Bonus and Spell Difficulty Class based on that
That is a template that you fill in -- aka what equipment you received for your class and your background -- what you sold because you chose not to keep it then what you spent all your extra coin on. Check out some of the other players creation threads

Ok I am getting closer to having everything done. One thing I didn’t see was a wagon repair kit. Could I get one of those and how much would it be?

Also if I wanted something made out of wood, like a little stage or something, would it be better to just buy the carpenters tools and wood and do it or just pay to have it done? Something like that isn’t on the list and I didn’t see anything about hurting a carpenters service anywhere.

Okay to make it simple use the stats for a Carriage and call it a Stage-Wagon and we will know that that means. Basically think a gypsy style wagon that one of the sides comes down to create a walk out on stage.

Hmm a Wagon Repair Kit okay I can create one of those along with some guidelines to go with it but you will need Smiths Tools to use that kit and this kit simply augments the Smiths Tools to allow you to fix wagons so some equipment and some parts.

Wagon Repair Kit (10gp)[10 lbs](6 Uses*)
This repair kit requires Smith's Tools to utilize. Roll 1d6 if it is equal to or less than the remaining uses the necessary parts are available to make the current fix. It costs 1gp to replace a use. Thus additional packs (6 uses) can be bought (6gp)[6 lbs] but they cannot be combined.

Ok so my wagon will be Stage-Wagon. got it. Same cost as a wagon or a carriage?

Not being proficient with a tool set doesn't stop you from using them right? you jest cant add your proficiency bonus correct?

Same as a Carriage but we call it a Stage-Wagon to differentiate the build.

Not proficient in tools means that you are not so good at it but yeah you can still use them most normal repairs are pretty simple

That being said what did you take as a Background?

So for background I choose Entertainer with the flavor of being a street hustler.

Ah okay I was thinking perhaps you could have swapped the Tool Proficiency using your background but the ones you have are probably going to be needed. Not all backgrounds are so well attuned as the Entertainer seems to be. So yeah simple repairs can be done by your character but your character is not going to be very good at it.
