Faeries have wings and, at least in this case, mostly faeries have wings.

[ +- ] What do I procure for you that you couldn't get from any other channel?

That has the procuring going the other direction, but I like it.

We pulled them off after the air elemental bit.

I can only see 2 notes, ember, and can't read eitherof them :D
I would only use them for goblin ear giggles so not a big deal.

OOC:
So, funny story but I typed this entire post out earlier, only to be hit with some site-based issues where GP wouldn't load at all and lost it. So... take two.
[ +- ] Vethalia
[ +- ] Daedale
[ +- ] Talin
[ +- ] Guesclinbert


And now, my own questions...


Vethalia : Why do you trust me so deeply?
Daedale : We knew each other long before this party came together. How?
Talin : What mundane task do you usually help me with off the battlefield?
Guesclinbert : What fear am I helping you overcome?

No idea. Names are usually the last thing I worry about.

Hey, quick question because I'm... unsure... do we really just pick whatever tier 1 armor we want?

Full plate, because I said so? 😳
Jul 17, 2025 5:53 am
Tier 1 full plate is a significant trade off. You'll get hit more frequently but take damage less often. It's also a -1 to all Agility rolls, which could be a big issue. It's not the tank suit it is in 5e.

Yeah, it's more just the money thing that throws me. Full plate is expensive, as it takes a lot of time and skill to craft and has to be tailored for the owner. Hard to wrap my head around a starting character just... having that.

The primary/secondary weapon thing is what's messing with me from a prohibitive standpoint. The SRD says you can pick a one handed primary and a secondary, OR a two handed primary.

But I guess not a two handed primary and a secondary?

The game prioritizes narrative over money management. If you don't feel like it's appropriate to have the plate, don't take it, but it's allowed. There are several abilities in the game that break inventory management too, so it's best not to think about that part too hard.

That's fair. I'll have to buy a shield at some point.

[Goliath]: The fear that I won't be able to avenge my community; after all if the whole community without me couldn't have stopped whatever it was, what chance do I have on my own, or even with the help of you guys? Would asking you to help just end up killing you lot as well? Are we prepared enough? The greater fear though, is that I'll never find out what caused the catastrophe.

@MaJunior I have approved your character, but there should be a +2 stat and a secondary weapon

Vethalia : Why do you trust me so deeply?
You are one of the few biggies who doesn't treat me like I'm a nuisance or worse still an opportunistic thief. Her people do not have the best reputation among the tall folk and you've never once not treated her as an equal.

The +2 stat (Agility) currently has a -1 from the armor, leaving it at 1.

Also, I can certainly take a secondary weapon if you'll allow it but I didn't because the SRD said for starting gear you take either a two handed primary weapon OR a one handed primary weapon and a secondary weapon. I took the two handed primary weapon.

If I take a secondary weapon, it will be a tower shield, reducing my Agility further, to 0.

Ha! Thank you, I totally missed all those details.
We stay with the core rules for now :D
