[OOC] Ethend Game: The Hunt for Cantus [Recruiting]

I fixed the issues from before and I hope to have equipment done by the end of the day… (Writing big blocks of text is really hard on my eyes with this set up so personality, background, and appearance are still all pending but I am trying. )

Questions: In 3.5 does cold resistance of +2 make the Adventurer’s Outfit pointless? (I know in M&M it does but I’ve looked without much luck…)

Anyhow just trying to cut weight so don’t mind me.

Clothing doesn't count against your weight actualy, so the 8 lb adventurers outfit doesn't count towards encumburance.

Really? You got a page number on that…? (Not that I don’t believe you but 8 lbs of clothing is quite a bit to not count.)

Edit: Ferrix, could you tell me your ruling on the above? Does the Adventurer's outfit weight not count against what the character can carry?

I know someone mentioned it somewhere. I don't see it in the SRD. It's already hard enough to carry items though, and with wearing armor and such, so I know I don't make anyone count it.

I've assumed Ferrix will help me out with my load problem in some way, so I loaded myself up a bit. It could be as simple as a Efficient quiver to drop 7 pounds, or a haversack, since both are cheep.

Aye, and the armor would replace alot of the weight...

I'll check in on this in the morning... The 8 lbs will tell me what I can and cannot carry so it does matter.

I won't be around Sunday at all but hopefully I can get alot of stuff done for this character while away from the PC.

Updated (BTW, if you said DM only, I only looked for a name in the Sblock. I was good)

I agree with Bront - I remember reading that the outfit worn doesn't count toward the weight of the individual. The weights provided are for additional outfits carried, but I also can't find it at the moment.

I know, it has that “It sounds rather familiar and true” ring to it...

That should reasonable also but the typical noble women (str of 10) running around in 20 lbs (it might be 15 lbs LS just packed my books on me) of your typical noble outfit should have to account for it… Or so you would think.

Found it!!

Sweet! Just in time before I go "Dark" for the rest of the day. I'll put that weight to good use.
