Using ADventurers League rules to create your character, so point buy or standard array. If you are unfamiliar with the rules or don’t know where to find them just make a comment and I’ll find and post links.

I would make good use of a link if it's on offer. Thanks.

Thanks for the invite, was planning on playing a light cleric, but also very interested in sorcerer if thats available.

I usually play either rogue (my favourite) or a caster. I might branch out and try something different. Leaning toward fighter (with an eye toward giving samurai a try).

Edited original post

Super i cheated a bit and thoight ide give the barb /fighter -pam a try

I'm flexible to go with whatever is needed to round out the party. I'm am leaning towards a dwarf ranger or elf rogue, but I would be happy with a dwarf cleric or elf wizard.

between the modules you can change everything up untill you start playing as a lvl 5 charcater.

Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and lock in my choice as a sorcerer. Will update this post later tonight with all the details.

Edit: Gonna do Lightfoot-Halfling Draconic Sorcerer, Point buy for stats and my +1 book will be Xanathers for the extra spells.

If Cave wants to go fighter then I'd be happy to take Paladin. Never played one before. Every single character I make is dex based, so I want to at least try a strength build once.

Lock me in for half-elf Paladin. My +1 book is Xanathar's for the Conquest Oath.

And what Cave said is true. Other than your character name. Any aspect of your character can be adjusted prior to level 5

so i suggest right before we turn 5th lvl we all have a big party of 1 class XD

That’s cool!

Any idea what level we’re planning on achieving in this campaign?

My race will definitely be Mountain Dwarf. Still deciding on the class.

Adventure league is a series of modules that follow along near the Hard cover modules. one of the problems with AL is you may not get enough lvls before the "book" advances to the next tier.

AL Advances thru tiers 1-4, 5-10, etc... a tier 1 character cannot play in other tiers. so hopefully we can advance quick enough other wise we might have to branch out into other stories/modules play. Does that make sense Tsavo.

So in theory you can play till as high as you wish, if you recreate/die they start at lvl 1 and then you may or may not have to find others to play within the same tier.

I think I have a lot to learn before I completely understand AL. But I'm loving the vibe of it so far. If I do anything wrong, please be patient. I'll get there.

Character submitted. He doesn't have a name or a background yet, but I'm working on it. Please let me know if I did anything wrong and I'll fix it. I'll make the sheet public.

ok, no worries Tsavo, Im still rather new, but i've been helping run it at our Local Store.

Thank you, Sclasclemski and CaveJohnson. I am also unfamiliar with the Adventurer's League and the information is appreciated.

If we don’t hear from brandcolt by tomorrow I will most likely swap him out with someone else. Just giving everyone a heads up

Thumbs up

Thanks for the invite. I'm juggling ideas of what to play (It's too early right now) but I was also thinking of doing a Samurai or an Arcane Archer. However, since we've already got a fighter, that might change.

Play whoever you want.

According to ADL rules, may I pick any deity from Forgotten Realms for a cleric, not just the ones listed in the back of the Player's Handbook?

Sounds about right. Thought check the PG, if your in a town and that diety's shrine is there you'll get added beneifits (less cost on casting and what not)

What he said.

Thanks. I'll have my character done by this weekend. Cleric is something new for me.

Seeing as cleric is covered I think I will go with druid, focusing on control. I’ll work something up in the next day or two! Thanks for letting me join!

Your welcome...and if you want to run cleric its fine...run 6 clerics...thats the beauty of Adventurers league...this module you will have one group...next module you may be playing with a completely different set of people and the player levels will start to modulate as well...as long as they are within the same tier of play.

It can get real intense real quick XD But then the benefit of doing with some higher APL(average party lvl) is you'd get a bit more exp. but now they changed it so everyone gets everything at an equal pace.

Decided I'm gonna make a Samurai. Should be up by tomorrow or the weekend at latest.

That does sound interesting... I must admit I’m not very familiar with AL. I’ve played one AL game at a convention. I’ll have to read up on the details.

But in that case... I was thinking of starting Cleric then going right into Sorcerer - Divine Soul. Multiclassing is allowed in AL, right?

yup...it certainly is.

Pardon my ignorance, but is play by post compatible with live play? Can I take this character to my local game shop after this game and keep the experience etc? Can I bring in my life cleric who already has (a measley) 100xp to this game?

It would need to be converted to season 8 but as long as it’s an al character then absolutely

You can log you character here and it will convert your content to ACP. Which is most likely 1 or 2.

Yup as long as that stuff is logged. you can move it from table to table. :)

So, due to some confusion and flip-flopping regarding my equipment, I deleted the post containing my gold roll, sorry. I rolled 140, but I'll reroll if you want it noted.

You don’t roll for gold for AL. You just get the starting equipment for your background and class.

Oh, can you not choose to sell starting equipment though? Or do you have to take the base equipment?

I think you can sell at half cost.

Ah right. I'll just take default gear then, thanks. I was hoping to go medium armor but fighter can't have it by default.

Character submitted, stat-wise. Will work on backgrounds stuff soon.

with your gear, you can choose which options you want. plus your starting gold. you can sell your gear for half and buy for full. so if theres nothing you want on your starting gear, choose the most expensive option and sell it. maybe that could help you get your build?

Pretty sure I'd have to sell half my inventory just to get a set of scale mail. I'll buy one later.

Take that back, if I sell my Chain mail and Light crossbow, I get 50GP. Guess that means I'll also sell my Bolts for 5SP. Thanks for the help.

yea as we go thru the adventures you'll get TCP= and you can exchange 1 TCP for 50g or other magical items from the "Evergreen" unlocked magic list
Plus when you lvl you get 75g. all other monetary things mentioned through out the modules are null now. so TCP/Leveling/and selling your gear is about the only to get gold with the new rules, :,(

Ah, I see, so it's kinda of more video-game like in that sense. Cool.

yea kinda so it makes getting "money" a bit harder but a bit easier to get magic items. Before in the "older" rules when you came across a "permanent" magic item it would divvied up between the party and only 1 person would. Now it just 'unlocks' for everyone that played it and you can buy it with the TCP. The cost of which is desgignated by where it appears on the Treasure table in the DMG varying from 8-20 TCP an item.

@Sclasclemski -- My character has been submitted. A few questions:
1. May I take Undercommon as a language choice? I picture my character as living in under the mountains most of his life so far.
2. Am I interpreting the following correctly -- I picked Chainmail for armor, and even my Strength is below 13, I don't have a movement penalty because I am a dwarf.
3. Should I add "[AL]" to my character's reference name?

1) sure thing

2) checks out

3) your choice

Everyone is approved. I’ll probably get things started wed or Thursday. Still in Mexico until Tuesday.

I know I’m late to the party, but I will be playing Elaris a high elf wizard with a love of adventure and a love of the pursuit of knowledge!

Sounds good Oxbox. Once the current section is completed you will join the party back in Parnast.
