Team Chalice Character Generation

Aug 27, 2016 11:57 pm

You may discuss your character plans here. It may prove less distracting to discuss amongst yourselves rather than filter out the other team's choices.

I will honor any rolls made in the global Player Character thread.

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Just to be sure if we haven't rolled we do it in this thread now, right?

To Kuroi, since you submitted it first, i'd figure i'd ask before just going through with it. I made a bard when I applied to the game, so i'll leave it up to you if I use him or not. Don't feel bad about saying no either, I wont hold any hard feeling against you.

To CancerMan, is there any backstory with the characters? Do they all already know each other or will the story begin with us meeting?

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Yes, go ahead and roll here.

You are all part of the team so you would have met each other previously. Feel free to come up with a backstory for why you joined the Pale in the fight against Caer Tan, as well as any connection or bonds with other players.

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Well if I roll or not depends on Kurois answer. I'm probably going to roll if I can be a bard but will choose the two feat option if not.
If I roll now will I be forced into using those stats, depending on the answer? Also, are custom backgrounds allowed (PHB. 126/7)?

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

You either roll 2d4+10 for each stat, or you take the standard array with free feat. There's obvious advantages to either, so pick one and stick with it.

You can customize your background using the material in the PHB.

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Some of the classes I'm considering are UA. Mystic only goes up to 10th level. Spirit Ranger only goes to 5th. Would that be a problem?

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

HypCo, you can also be a bard :) There are different colledges and who said that there couldn't be characters with the same clase?

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Awesome man, for backstory purpose we could of been band mates or something. Any idea what college/spells you're choosing? I'm most likely going lore. Haven't really set in my 1st level spells yet, cantrips most likely are going to be minor illusion and vicious mockery.

Please be kind. - (2d4+10, 2d4+10, 2d4+10, 2d4+10, 2d4+10, 2d4+10)

2d4+10 : (44) + 10 = 18

2d4+10 : (33) + 10 = 16

2d4+10 : (34) + 10 = 17

2d4+10 : (41) + 10 = 15

2d4+10 : (14) + 10 = 15

Hm. The issue with these classes is that it feels like they were meant to cap at their respective levels. The Spirit Ranger, for example, seems really powerful in the initial stages, and if we homebrewed something beyond 5th-level it appears like it would get way out of hand (ie 40d6 HD by level 20). Same goes for the Mystic.

And if we considered a multi-class option once you reach the cap, it feels similar to allowing someone to gain levels after 20.

I could also consider that once you reach the cap, that's it. But that's no fun.

I think the simplest solution would be to disallow these specific classes or any others that have no level progression up to 20.

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Any player want to switch from Team Chalice to Team Rose? Leviathan75 and Cmbrian know each other and it might be nice for them to be on the same team.

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

Do you know any of the classes over there?
Also would it be possible to combine my flute and dagger, to have some sort of flute with a sharp point at the end? It adds a little to the backstory so it isn't just a regular flute, up to you though.

No one has mentioned any particular classes.

Ask them if they want a bard, i'll switch if they'll take me.

Re: Team Chalice Character Generation

I'll just switch you anyway. Each team has 6 characters, so there's enough room for duplicate classes.

As for the pointy flute, that's fine. It will have the same stats as a dagger.

Thanks for the invite and accommodation CMan! I'm thinking of a DEX fighter or a rogue based on party needs.

Ok, no problem. I just want to do something I've never tried before. I'm sure I haven't exhausted the PHB yet! :-D

Hey guys! I'm happy to play a filler role... Meat shield, healer, damage or utility.
