4d6 drop lowest. Reroll 1s.

No Evil Alignments.

Must have 2 personality traits, 1 bond, 1 ideal, 1 flaw.

Must fulfill 1 of the following roles in the game, first come, first serve -

The Do-Gooder - The typical hero. He will always do the right thing, no matter what. Typically LG but doesn't have to be.

The Lost Soul - The lovable scoundrel. May have a checkered past but has a good heart. Typically CG but doesn't have to be.

The Charmer - The cool guy. The slick speaker. Ladies love him, guy want to be him. He wants to avoid hard-work if possible. But behind that slick facade, is a truly vulnerable person. Alignment doesn't matter.

Comic Relief - The funny guy. The oddball. The weird-o. They make jokes, they make mistakes, but they just want to do good. Usually Chaotic but not required.

The Professor - The know-it-all. The one who values facts over feelings. Probably LN but can be just about anything.

The Loner - Cold, distant. Wants to be seen as an outcast but generally craves companionship. Probably a N but unimportant.

Thanks for running this game (and letting me join), Bigdogg1990!

I'll take the Lost Soul background.

Questions: Are stats rolled in order, or can we re-arrange? And are 1s re-rolled just once, or until they are no longer 1s? (I also rerolled 1s before dropping the lowest score).

1s are rerolled once and you can place your stats however you'd like.
Feb 22, 2018 3:49 pm
Thanks for that. I've submitted a half-elf warlock. Please just let me know if there's anything that needs changing, or you think I've missed the tone you're after for this game.
Feb 22, 2018 4:21 pm
I'll take the Do-Gooder. Combining humor and noir for the setting is a great idea.
Feb 22, 2018 4:41 pm
Looks like you didn't include your flaw in your character, Robago.

I will take the comic relief, planning on being a Halfling Bard, probably glamour (that's allowed with our rules correct?). Can I import my character sheet?

Thanks, I've updated the sheet.

I am close to finished with my half-elf paladin with the sailor background. I am going to roll for which trinket I have.

Rolls

Random trinket from Chapter 5 in PHB - (1d100)

Question: Is there a god or goddess of the stars or night sky?
Feb 23, 2018 3:15 pm
We're using the Forgotten Realms Pantheon. So Selune would be the best bet.
Feb 24, 2018 10:14 am
Hey all.

So I'm thinking of a human cleric inquisitor. Basically a demon hunter.

Drafting up his character sheet but will take the loner trope.

Edit: Adding rolls

I am thinking of rolling with a type of character similar to Keanu Reeve's character in Constantine.

So a couple of things I need DM approval on before I progress further my character:

Can I take the Variant Human Class?

Can I choose the Grave Domain for my cleric (Unearthed Arcana)?

Can I take the inquisitor background for my cleric (see background thread)?

Can I take the dual wield feat and then dual wield [s]two warhammers? This would require giving up my starting shield and instead getting another warhammer (already would have one starting warhammer)

EDIT: Actually I don't think I would be proficient with martial weapons. In that case can I take two maces (one already as a starting mace)?[/s]

DOUBLE EDIT: On reflection I don't think I will take dual wielder. Instead I think I want to take the Weapon Master Feat.

I totally missed this post somehow.

Yes to all.

Thanks character sheet updated and linked to game. See backgrounds thread for further discussion.
Mar 5, 2018 2:24 pm
I went ahead and approved your character, but you need to add 1 more personality trait. The story will begin later today guys, so be looking out. Looking to have a great time with this.
Apr 17, 2018 4:52 pm

We also have the Lost Soul role taken.

And we have a warlock, paladin, and bard.

Oh wonderful, i was looking at that i don' think i could have played that one! ~phew~
Apr 18, 2018 2:48 pm
SO, i'm thinking of the professor. I'm having a slight difficulty choosing a suitable class, Cleric: Knowledge or Bard Lore, Wizard of some sort, ideas? suggestions?
Apr 18, 2018 3:11 pm
Personally, the Cleric would round the group out the best, but it really doesn't matter much. Plus the cleric would be easiest to incorporate.
Apr 18, 2018 3:41 pm
Consider the cleric to be made.
Apr 18, 2018 7:35 pm
Character submitted. Please review.
Apr 18, 2018 8:51 pm
Would you be opposed to be a cleric of Ilmater? If you would not oppose, I can introduce you now, as a cleric sent by Madame Craigthorpe to help.
Apr 19, 2018 3:27 am
thats fine, i didnt pick a diety yet so thats cool
Apr 19, 2018 2:48 pm
now looking at illmater, i'd prefer not to but i could find a way to work with it if you need me to.
Apr 19, 2018 3:21 pm
What deity would you like?
Apr 19, 2018 3:25 pm
idk i looked up ilmater was was like the god of suffering and perserverence and what not, like i said, i can make it work if you already got written in. i have a few ideas to make it work. but he doesn't server the knowledge domain was my concern.
Apr 19, 2018 3:28 pm
I can work with anything. While technically Ilmater isn't in that domain, I assume that all gods need researchers and people who have that knowledge. Again, I can make anything work.
Apr 19, 2018 3:42 pm
Meh, Its easiest for you, i know the stupid that can go into working characters in. so Illmater will be...
Apr 19, 2018 3:47 pm
Honestly, I was going to introduce you the same, regardless. Lol
Apr 19, 2018 3:49 pm
well on that note i would prefer Diety: Deneir
Apr 19, 2018 3:54 pm
Works for me.
