I am an aberrant mind sorcerer so heavy into enchantment with a few twists. I added an elemental flair due to my warlock of the genie. Still working on it but here are the basics
Mage Hand, Chill Touch,Spare the Dying, Meld Earth, Gust, Shape Water, Control Fire, Mind Sliver, Minor Illusion, Mending, Eldritch Blast, Toll of the Dead
1st Arms of Hadar, Dissonant Whispers, Cure Wounds, Charm Person, Chromatic Orb, Magic Missile
2nd Tasha's Mind Whip, Detect Thoughts, Invisibility, Mirror Image, Detect Thoughts, Enlarge/Reduce
3rd Hunger of Hadar, Sending, Gaseous Form, Revivify
4th Phantasmal Killer, Summon Aberration, Polymorph, Storm Sphere
5th Synaptic Static, Telekinesis, Creation,
6th Disintegrate

Remember we might git split into two groups so dont lock things down to tight.
From the intro I am not to sure we are working as a group until the beginning of this game so a little overlap should be expected

Lol I got Gauntlets and Headband as well, but needed the Rare item for my familiar to Concentrate on Haste for me.

DM: I've got the character mostly done on paper, just need to transfer it to a sheet. Will try to do that tonight and tomorrow.

I'm going for these for cantrips: Green-Flame Blade, Gust, Prestidigitation, Shocking Grasp, Toll the Dead

With 7 STR & 6 CON... I needed Gauntlets of ogre power & Amulet Of Health to compensate.

Interesting selection for sure. I got Congo's cantrips done. Spells do take longer. Have to keep in mind his familiar, rogue'ish, and being an enchanter.

Yesterday and today have been unexpected busy.
I expect my character tomorrow

Hey y'all! Thanks for having me. I've read through this thread and so far I'm at a loss as to what character to make. My initial thought was tabaxi inquisitive Rogue, but I see that subclass has been taken. I'm not keen on multiclassing. I'm happy to play healer of that's what we need. I'll go looking through some character options to see what speaks to me.
Oct 13, 2023 2:46 pm
Iif we split into 2 groups another rogue is not bad. As they say, play what you like. Working with/around a teams gaps can be interesting. No rogue, the barbarian just walks down the trapped hall, No tank, everyone stand behind the cleric :)

Oh right! Two groups. Well then I'll get to working on my tabaxi.

Edit: Those are some interesting rolls. Hard to pass up a 17 even with a 4. Still, could be an interesting RP opportunity.

5,000 gp plus 1d10 (6) × 250 gp = 5000 + 1500 = 6500gp

Sarge ???
grifter Hexblade
Gene Rogue Wizard
soises Ranger

Cloe Fighter

Guardian Rogue
Psybermagi sorcerer warlock

Maybe something like that? Hex + Ranger = decent tank and healing = Druid + Fighter. We'll see . . . .

Shoulders the Ranger hard and knocks the Ranger into the Fighter. :)

Still a working on my character.

@GreyWord would re-skinnng The Skyblinder from a staff to a dagger or rod/club be OK? It would just make it easier to keep available if I shape shift.

I've got 8 players so far. Going to split you in two groups of 3-5 players. Each group have their own independent game. I thin we will have normal pbp game and a fast one.
To compensate post frequency the first will be more railroaded and DM will be fast forwarding story to the events that require player actions, while in second I will allow PCs to interrupt and take story off the rails.

Based on what I know @smilery, @Psybermagi, @grifter730 would be prefer frequent story interactions, while (for different reasons) - I would suggest @GeneCortess. @soises. @GuardianRory to be in the railroaded group. But let me know if you think my investigation failed there :)

I'm clueless on @Chloe and @Sarge1967 - which of game peace modes do you think you would prefer?

P.S. This will be complicated for me, but not impossible to later move a player from one group to another if the player desire so

re-skinnng anything is welcome as long as rules defined mechanics stay. While it would be really weird for a dagger to do a Bludgeoning damage and Versatile, it is a magical weapon and magic turns anything weird into explainable, doesn't it?
Oct 13, 2023 4:26 pm
OK, without changing to dagger (finesse, piercing) It makes more sense to make it a rod like club. Thanks :)
