Secrets of the Greenwold PC creation/advancement

OK, so I think what we have from advancing to level 3 is the following:

Ishi becomes a Totem Barbarian (bear), gaining 10 HP to (35/35).
Elowin advances as a Twilight Cleric, taking average HP for (24/24).
Adran is a Battle Smith Artificer, taking average HP for (26/26).
Eozindra isn't listed as L3 yet, but advanced as a College of Eloquence Bard and gained 5 HP (15/15).
Elysia is a Thief Rogue, taking the average HP for (24/24)
Morik is a Circle of the Moon Druid, but hasn't increased HP yet.

Is that correct?

Morik's HP should be updated to level 3 now, taking the average (5 Avg + 4 Con +1 Dwarven Toughness). I've also added a new spell prepared. I'm pretty sure that's all that druids get at level 3.

yes - and thank you for the chapter summery

yes, and thanks also

@MaJunior, I'm assuming that Adran is cobbling together his new mechanical companion - the "Steel Defender" - from various bits and bobs that he and the rest of the party supplies. If you like, each player could suggest an item that their PC is contributing for him to incorporate into it (just for flavor).

In addition to that, what is its completed appearance? How many legs does it have? What will you call it?

So, I figured it would start as a construct made more of salvage (based on what was happening in the story). Adran has a long rest, so I was thinking he could wander around and see what he could find. Maybe "salvage" some armor and shields from fallen foes for the body and so on. Harkening back to all the time he spent taking apart the construct from his backstory.

I'm thinking it will have 4 legs, more of a canine-esque build. As for what to call it... I don't know yet. Lol

I don't mind giving Adran the clockwork contraptions I... uhh... stole rehomed *cough cough* from Tykus' apartment.

Whoops, my bad! Fixed that now. Accurate summary for the bard. Bring on the discussions!

Looking through what I have to proffer for the defender build. I think we were supposed to start the game with some kind of trinket? I never added one so … can I add one now and offer it up for the sake of robobuddy?

Sure, that's fine. Some people like to play up their trinket into their PC background - witness Bramlin and his silver bird - but I think your character has plenty of backstory already, so if you're willing, go for it!
I think incorporating a shield makes a lot of sense, particularly with the "Deflect Attack" reaction ability. We can say that, in addition to his own gear, Adran managed to cadge two shields, a spear, and a brace of daggers from the fallen guards when his group returned to the Inn. There's also the clockwork frog, and the various gears and springs that Kilikina already mentioned. In addition, @Kilkina and @Redamancy could provide some details about the abandoned basement that they've found: what is in the building above? What might have been stored and forgotten in this basement?

Oh... oh yay! *flexes fingers* I've gotchu, let me equip my fanfic writer's hat and I'll make you a post for this!

@spaceseeker19 I'm starting to feel that Elowin has become a bit flat in her character. I would like to get some more depth to her. Ideally it could be plot-relevant but I'm open for suggestions, before I make up something myself.

There is a pretty major character development coming for each of the characters at the end of this module, but I appreciate that that is probably still weeks away in real-world time.
In the meantime, do you want a change in motivation, backstory, or personality, or do you want more opportunities to express character in conversations?
Conversation - a primary way that character is expressed - depends a great deal on player-to-player interaction, but I could provide more talkative NPCs, possibly including making Lunea a bit more chatty. The goddess is very real to Elowin, so I could make her more of a interactive character.

chatting with Luna? That is a good idea. She has already started to combat the claustrophobia

Trinket: An invitation to a party where a murder happened.
As a girl, she was thief in Grayhaven. Running under the name Shade She knew Eozindra Arilyra (@Redamancy) and Elysia Nightthorn (@Kilikina)
She tried to steal from a church and was caught by a kind and stern priest. She had the choice of prison or community service in the church. She resented it at first, but found peace and meaning in the teaching of Ellendaed, Goddess of Valor or Bealdor the High, God of the Sun.
She took the name Faith and began training as a paladin in the church.
She attended a party in an official church capacity, and this was where dark smoke began rolling out around her (as her sorcerer powers manifested in fog cloud). Everyone saw it came from her - wearing church clothes, but a tiefling. Someone was murdered and she fled the scene. While innocent people still thought that she was responsible for the murder or at least an accomplice, even if the evidence says otherwise.
Horrified she fled to the undercity.

- She is still a suspect in the murder
- She has manifested demon power of fire and smoke - something she needs to come to terms with.
- She can't take her paladin oath without the churches blessing

I got an AI to make me an image of Faith and found two new art forms that I like. Pencil Sketch and Ink and Wash

@spaceseeker19 can you tell me a bit about Bealdor the High, God of the Sun?
I think Faith is part of that church

I've added an entry for Bealdor the High in the "Deities and Powers" thread in the World Book forum.

That is perfect for Faith! Thank you. Blessed are the light! And what is not said, but she thinks: cursed is the darkness causing her to have conflicted feelings towards her newfound magic
