Thorem's gear: Bought 5 flasks of oil, dagger, and fine clothes out of his original 25gp.
Would he actually have that Wooden Case with him that contains mostly his archaeology gear?
Is there any other gear too that he would not have with him?
_______________________________________________________________________
Fine Clothes: Waterskin over shoulders

Longsword in scabbard on belt
Longbow attached to backpack
Quiver: 20 Arrows on backpack
2 Handaxes in Holders on belt
Dagger in scabbard on belt

Backpack: Ruin Map, Sledgehammer (Bestie), Tinderbox, 10 Rations, Traveler’s Clothes, Leather Armor
Attached: Two-person Tent, Shield

Wooden Case: Bullseye Lantern, Miner’s Pick, Shovel, Crowbar, 10 Pitons, 10 Torches, 50' Hempen Rope, 5 Flasks of Oil

Pouch: 7gp, 5sp, Silver Skull The Size of a Coin, Old Key
______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sledgehammer (Bestie) is a favored item to him. It has always done him well. To drive pitons or just break things. He has gotten himself out of fixes with just using Bestie to take down a wall when he was trapped. He always explores with Bestie.
Silver Skull The Size of a Coin is something he took from a previous tomb. He favors it.
Old Key is something he happened on and has no idea of any lock it works. He just keeps it.
Fine Clothes is formal military dressing.

For fighting styles can we use the ones from Tashas (thinking superior technique) or just from the phb?
Sure use Tashas or any other official resource for class/subclass features.
The only reason I limit races to PHB: 1. There are few races involved in the story and I don't wand you to chose those races 2. I do not want to spoil list of the races in the storry
Ah yes makes sense. If it's a different continent and culture I doubt we've come across much if anything from there.

To clarify/modify when I say exhibition of skill matches I mean people juggling swords, training matches, showing the crowd how feints work, more of a show than actual combat. Before the actual gladiators come out.

I have my character for 95% set.

Mechanics are final and up for approval for Grey.
Backstory is in it's core done as well.
Tasrek and I had a little chat and decided to go on half sibling bards.
That is probably also how I know Gene's character.

Some details still needed to be worked out story wise and I will need to still finalize and render the art work.


Lasme is the second child of a rich, human, head of an alchemy trade guild from Baldur's Gate and his second, wood elf, wife.

It was good for Lasme that she had Ha'aroo as an older half-brother for she had no interest or talent in succeeding her father in alchemy business. He could succeed father, for all she cared.
Lasme was good with people, but she lacked pure smarts. Books and numbers bore her to death. She never did well at any studies.

She is the type of girl that needed to do instead of learn. She was all focussed on her intuition and gutfeeling.
One day a family friend, Syndra Silvane, gave her a violin. A talent for music was discovered. She played and played.

And while her father had hoped she would play quality music, worthy for Cormyrean nobles, Lasme rather played faced paced music, while dancing on the tables in harbor taverns.
Her violin case open, to gain donations and soaking up the atmosphere of the tavern. Her dream riches and fame. Maybe, if Lliira wills it, in Waterdeep if possible!

She indeed had a natural talent for performing, but not in the perfect, near noble, picture her rich merchant parents had imagined.

Hi All. Good progress with charsheets so far.
Note that I've decided to allow those who rolled terrible to chose either stay with rolled or use standard array instead
note: I will put some game mechanics ideas into OOC chat right now. I just realised it may influence your character decisions, so if anyone want to go back and change something I'm totally fine, just let me know
Mar 31, 2022 1:15 pm
Everyone but @Dramasailor characters approved and we could slowly move to chatper 1
I will be waiting for your opinion in OOC by tomorrow (24 hours from post) and for Dramasailor character by Monday - there will be little progress in chapter 1 till then

All characters approved, I am accepting any better token pictures for battle maps that we may have in a week or something, so no hurry
And please check if I got your PC names right and if it is ok to shorten those who have two words name

This is how it would look like at the moment

Here's a headshot for Pacan, and definitely ok with shortening to just "Pacan"

Just Corman would be fine for Jim Corman. I have no idea how you put a circle boarder around, but I like it.

I wouldn't be as much worried about circle as making the picture readable. I would allow myself to argue that I can distinguish anyone but Travers on the battle map below.
