Such op stats. I dislike rolling stats so will not be doing so. But i can roll with those caestus stats. May i ask to compromise for the damage, two handing them gives me.a.shiled. for +2 ac. Kinda like turning on a fighters reflexes.[ +- ] It's already resolved with Luchador's Defense.
My point in that post was that +2 AC might be too much given/based on the existence of Dual Wielder* (a feat) and Bracers of Defense (a Rare magic item that requires Attunement). I also suggested a mechanic from games of old called stances**. It was just my two cents regarding the matter. A smaller Shield spell effect is not a bad deal though.
* Although it is unanimous that only a niche build such as a Sentinel Polearm Master Kensai Monk would see value in that feat, mechanically speaking. I made the "mistake" of picking it up before because I wanted tonfas.
** I think. I'm not so sure. All I remember is that they do trade-offs like -4 AC for a +2 to hit, -4 AC for a +2 to AC, a charisma thing that gives non-hostiles a bonus to to-hit, and something akin to the Protection Fighting Style except you take the hit instead of giving Disadvantage. I encountered it again in a Beyond The Wall game I joined. I'm not too keen if it's the same exact stuff.

Minor clarification on the Luchador's Defense option: it only would increase your reaction against melee attacks, rather than against all attacks.

For race, I'm probably going to go variant or, with your approval, the tiefling variant from SCAG.
Mar 14, 2018 3:23 am
Hi guys, im a newly added player. I'm Thinking about a tabaxi monk or rogue. I haven't decided just yet. Which way would help out better?
Mar 14, 2018 3:32 am
@HypCo tiefling variant is totally fine. Next you'll be telling me the name will have Ry in the name somewhere.
Rogues and bards would both play really nicely. Marie Louise and Vlur are both a touch on the shadier side. :)

Haha, wouldn't that be weird!
So the party layout is Cleric, Warlock, and (N)PC Druid?

Not a bad stack at all. :)
The dice roller can be a bit interesting, specifically when dealing with multiple dice of different sizes.
Currently, you cannot do 1d20+1d4, for example. You need to do 1d20, 1d4 and then we do the addition on the fly. I know Keleth is working on an update to the roller that I thought corrected this, but it isn't live yet.

Marie-Louise isn't shady.... Je bent zelf schaduwig!
ML is a very sweet girl with a slightly twisted view of the world... And as long as you can handle her speaking directly into your head you'll be juuuust fine, probably, maybe....

I like the bits where she is just messing with people by being a little voice in their heads.

I'll write up a back story for Stitch right away just drawing blanks right now, that's what my mid numbing work does, and Marie-Louise is quite the unique character, lol. I picture Wednesday from the adams family
Mar 14, 2018 5:18 pm
Wednesday was indeed part of the inspiration, combined with the semi creepy parts of my own brain... And I'm looking forward to finding out what you guys are bringing to "the table"^^

Roll 'em up.
DM, would I be able to tie these in with the SCAG variant?
Final:
17, 16, 14, 14, 13, 13
