[Closed!] 4e Game; B'n'B Against the Orcs

I'm good with the cleric...this site is killing me this afternoon. I'll try to work on something over the weekend.

Thanks, WD!

I stole the idea to put it all in a code block, and some of the formatting, from DEFCON 1. I like having things aligned by using whitespace, I guess I get that from programming... It's always annoyed me how ENWorld obliterates any 'extra' spaces you put in, so I beat the system.

I'd like to slot in as an alt. I'm happy to play whatever role may end up vacated.

Thanks for the invite I'm refining my character sheet now. Are we starting out with any magic items?

I'm not as familiar with some of the lingo what exactly constitutes a Beer n' Bretzel game?

Yes, standard starting wealth, see p. 134 in the DMG
(In this case, you start with each a level 6, 5, 4 item and gold the worth of a 4th level item. Mundane items as you like [but don't go over the top]).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_and_pretzels_game

In this case, I mean a lighthearted approach, with me calling the monsters by their MM name and you can discuss tactics during battle in the OOC thread.
And the NPCs are (sometimes) a bit stereotypical.

Here's my initial offering.

Hit: 2[W] + 5 damage. If you are bloodied, you regain hit points equal to 5 + your Wisdom modifier. Bloodied allies within 5 squares of you also regain hit points equal to 5 + your Wisdom modifier.

On Pain of Death

Close burst 3 Target: Each enemy in burst
Attack: +7 vs. Reflex
Hit: 2d6 + 5 damage.
Effect: The burst creates a zone of bright light that lasts until the end of the encounter. You and your allies gain a +1 power bonus to all defenses while within the zone.


Class / Racial Features and Utility Powers:

Divine Challenge
At-Will Divine, Radiant
Action Close burst 5
Target: One creature in burst
Effect: You mark the target. The target remains marked until you use this power against another target, or if you fail to engage the target (see below). A creature can be subject to only one mark at a time. A new mark supersedes a mark that was already in place.

While a target is marked, it takes a –2 penalty to attack rolls for any attack that doesn't include you as a target. Also, it takes radiant damage equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier the first time it makes an attack that doesn’t include you as a target before the start of your next turn.

On your turn, you must engage the target you challenged or challenge a different target. To engage the target, you must either attack it or end your turn adjacent to it. If none of these events occur by the end of your turn, the marked condition ends and you can’t use divine challenge on your next turn.

You can use divine challenge once per turn.
Special: Even though this ability is called a challenge, it doesn’t rely on the intelligence or language ability of the target. It’s a magical compulsion that affects the creature’s behavior, regardless of the creature’s nature. You can’t place a divine challenge on a creature that is already affected by your or another character’s divine challenge.

Lay on Hands
At-Will Divine, Healing
Action Melee touch
Special: You can use this power a number of times per day equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1), but only once per round.
Target: One creature
Effect: You spend a healing surge but regain no hit points. Instead, the target regains hit points as if it had spent a healing surge. You must have at least one healing surge remaining to use this power.

Channel Divinity: Divine Mettle
Encounter Divine
Minor Action Close burst 10
Target: One creature in burst
Effect: The target makes a saving throw with a bonus equal to your Charisma modifier.

Channel Divinity: Divine Strength
Encounter Divine
Minor Action
