X if you go full fighter with Thorn, I'm pretty sure you will have max stats in everything hahah.

Or every feat known to man.
Ha ha, this has happened to me before in a game. Then certain things happened story-wise and I ended up taking levels in Warlock, and while it is tons of fun RP-wise, I regret the departure from pure fighter.

Still not sure what will end up winning out here. Will I be able to stave off the impulse to let Thorn become Sorcha Rhone's disciple in the mystic arts of chalk drawing and stone-and-tripod mosaics? Stay tuned....

Chalk is pretty useful. How else do you "... up your kills"? Well, with chalk of course!

Anyways, Ive been brooding about Maeriks' actions in this funky period. Post is started, inbound late tonight.

I remember when my wife did that to me too. It was the worst.

I hear you on future paths, X. I've got a few in mind, but I think it's going to turn out to be a natural evolution of sorts, rather than a min-maxing thing. I think the feel of the character will end up being more important in the long run... although I have a natural affinity for min-maxing.

We'll see. Lots of options in the DT world where hybridizing classes is it's own way of creating a 'class'.

X, I'm adding this to your growing list of best quips.

I'm enjoying seeing everyone's choices on characters. Admit that I sometimes wish PBP was faster so that we could see the development on these guys over time in their world. But overall this is a system that works - a new spin on an old medium.

So true what Ez says: I think it is close to impossible to NOT give in to temptation to min-max during character creation and progression. Building bonuses, specialties, and raw laser-focus performance fucking ROCKS!! At the same time, I like when a character becomes unpredictable even to his owner and ends up driving off the tracks in a completely different direction than originally planned.

Hopefully there's room for both, and more. Min-maxers are welcome. Storyteller builds are welcome. Erratic and evolving characters are welcome. Tropes are welcome. Radical departures from tropes are welcome. Hopefully we can gradually start seeing this world and build it together in a way where success and progress and cool shit can all come through a lot of different channels. And see some fucking cool scenes and hear badass stories all over the place in ways we can't predict.

So you don't HAVE to be a min-maxer just to survive, but you also don't HAVE to get overly bogged down in picking oddball counter-culture story booster pathways just to be a rebel either. I'm kind of a fan of all of the above, so bring it on in any direction.

I think I'll multiclass to bard.
Oct 4, 2017 8:49 pm
That would be bard-ass!

Who knows - Bard may make a late-campaign appearance in Class options!

CB and I had a pretty decent nerd debate during DT: WM development about Bard as the DT replacement for Wizard . . .

I mean if something like this is your character vision, then let's talk about it and see where it goes...

Then Kray's hands curled into fists as his arms began to shake, visibly trembling and pushing against some unseen force, as if he was trying to break free. And then it stops. Kray, eyes open and locked with the witch on the throne, is suddenly at ease. Calm. Gazing directly into Rutcranna's eyes.
Okay, now I'm with you Ox.

Oh yeah... good times all around in the throne room. At least the damn door is grinding open.

Tick tock.
Oct 5, 2017 2:42 pm
Sorry to get your hopes up X
Oct 5, 2017 2:57 pm
Haha. I was just thinking about how long I waited for everyone else's timeline to catch up back when Thorn was going solo against Fingol, and how somehow it didn't seem as along a wait as this... :D

Not that you're taking your sweet time, J; I'm just on the edge of my seat!

Tick tock indeed, Ez.

What will happen next!?

Good shit, J. Sincerely.
