Sorry, a Fiddler to me needs to have some sort of explosive munition (see Moranth) expertise...

Yunru, you are correct in your idea's to optimize. They just don't fit my particular vision. With him having a sage background, I wanted him to have a modicum of intelligence. Hex + eldritch blast + quicken is a pretty mean combo. I definitely will be using a focus in the shape of a bow to...

I don't want to go EK due to character reasons, but it would raise my total to 10 Cantrips: Name: Verrin Baase Class: Fighter 3 / Warlock 7 Background: Sage (discredited scholar) Race: Human Sex: Male Age: 47 Alignment: CN Languages: Common via Human Elven via Human Dwarven via Sage Celestial...

After reading everyone's posts, I realized that I was trying to be too many things at once. I wanted to be an arcane archer with front line capabilities. I really wouldn't be helpful in the form of a tank as my strength wouldn't allow me to wear plate and soak up a lot of hits so I am thinking...

Our group is fairly combat-oriented and that makes what you say even more impactful as I would want to have hex up quite often and therefore more concentration spells wouldn't make too much sense. I will look at all of the spells again, thank you for your thoughts. Thanks to all for your...

As young boy Verrin Baase was often picked on by the larger boys in Loudwater, teased and tormented when he wanted to join in on the games they were playing. He didn't have the strength and stamina to keep up in athletic endeavors, so he spent his time practicing with weapons, reading about the...

Couldn't agree more with the sentiment. I think 10 sp hidden in a sock deep in the dresser would be more appropriate :)

Thank you for sharing your world with us. Great work with this module and continued success!

I am going to combine these two posts. I love the idea of sabotaged portal and have the perfect culprits. I will allow the group to make a perception check to notice the unknown threat (2 sorcs/wizards) along with other nearby riffraff and if they care to do nothing then once they pass...

This Sunday I am going to be running a party with 3 extra players who are going to be starting out at Lvl 1. The remaining 3-4 members are levels 6-7. The three level ones are new to 5e but played a while back in other editions. The challenges in front of the 6-7's are more than deadly to the...

I think my table attempts to perfect the "Party Split™" as it happens so often and they make it out unscathed most of the time.

I guess the age of the character would have determined the stink he made showing up...

Thanks to everyone for their input. I had not really taken the Deck's power into account, and I really hadn't taken the epic natural of this opportunity for the PC. I did have the fiendish tone in mind and because it was card was thrown at the PC with absolute hatred (and negative energy) as...

I use line of sight and depending on target size the amount of cover granted...crit fumble into melee = dmg to ally.

Damn convenient those falling rocks...
