Let's see what I get for my second character. Nice Cha by the way, Fenris. Ouch on the Int and Str though.

I think that's an Elven Magic-User.

Is this who you were looking for?

Ok, let's continue a night a stellar rolls and get character C out of the way.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner. He looks promising. I just hope hes doesn't die and I have to play the dim-witted thief

That 9 wisdom would give him a 20% cleric spell failure chance. I'm thinking my scores make a half-elf magic-user, a human magic-user, or a half-elf cleric/magic-user.

Forgot about that little tidbit. Wonder what a cleric with a 9 WIS RP's like?

"I have the spells granted by my god but am only worthy to cast them 80% of the time."

And assassin min STR 12, DEX 12, INT 11 - So odd those give you no true mechanical benefit. 1e was all about the ROLE play and not the ROLL play for sure.

I really like the idea of rolling up a few characters then just going down the line as they get removed from play. I suspect our adventuring party might have a fairly high mortality rate, at least at first

Best to have a few ready - just like old times. I had a folder with a dozen or more all the time. Once I wanted to do every race/class combo. But I got over it.

Yeah it sure was, and really the stats don't matter very much, not like 3E on. And I have to admit to having difficulty reminding myself of that. But with the first character, there aren't many classes he would qualify for. Still need to dig our my PH though.

Third time's the charm. And that last one looks pretty good Fenris.

Let's call that one a halfling thief.

Right I could only find pictures of his toy. And did you know Warduke is Wikipedia!? :erm:

If only there was someone that would convert ToEE to pathfinder...I don't own any 1st Ed. books

, which I have never played to begin with, but I will follow the thread somewhat close since ToEE has always interested me. Good luck guys

[MENTION=6693285]Disposable Hero[/MENTION] I've got a 3.5 conversion of it that pretty much maps directly to Pathfinder. I ran half the first floor of it without doing any real conversion besides adding CMB/CMD to the enemies and it worked perfectly. You still need maps and key and whatnot from the original module to run it, but I'd be happy to send the 3.5 text file to you if you want.

Maybe one day when I'm up for running a PBP game. I've DMed for so long that I really like being just another player right now. I'm a huge fan of high risk high reward, which I think we'll get plenty of in the Slumbering Tsar game. Thank you for the offer.
