In all honesty, the original designer made it cost a feat, but I personally find that its a fair trade without a feat--there's a tiny catch (the RNL thing), and you switch out your casting stat from one that is arguably more powerful and synergises with many Druid skills to one that is weaker.

Very true about the stat thing. But I think I am settling in to a concept, now. Sorry to be trouble! I like the fey angle - and I can keep the WIS good for the synergies anyway. Plus, I think it works out better for what I had hoped to do with her down the road.

Please post here--you can SBLOCK if it's long.

What, do I have a reputation already?

That could work--would you be going for Arcane Trickster? Also, if by Young you mean Age Category Young, then that generally has stat penalties associated with it, but if you meant really young in the Young Adult category, that's cool too

I hadn't thought about Arcane Trickster. I see him more as someone who does what he has to in order to survive in a violent environment, then gradually discovers that he has real worth - and has a ball exploring the parameters of that. Just imagine the excitement of ... learning another spell!

As to age, I would imagine him being only just into the "young adult" category. For a human that's 16, I guess.

Are you happy for me to set up an Invisible Castle account under the name "Kelloran"?

Well here are my rolls nothing spectacular but servicable (15, 14, 13, 12, 12, 12 -- 10 dropped). At least there are no bad stats which somewhat makes up for the mediocre.

31 point build (I think)? Not too shabby. No negatives. That much is nice.

Oh, and thanks for editing your list to make Rhaka human. The little things go noticed.

Now ... to find some way to get Keryth bonus XP ...

I like the fey angle too--sounds like it could be interesting. I also kept Wisdom high for Selene (17). Glad I helped you find something that helped synch with what you wanted to do in the long run

Nope, just guessing

Ah, that's cool, discovery of magic is always an interesting theme--Yup, 16 is the cusp of Young Adult, and that'll work. I was only unsure if you meant like a 9-year-old because Young was italics.

No negatives, but it does wreck a few feat choices I was looking at for the swashbuckler though as he won't be able to access them at anywhere near the relevant time. Ah well, guess I'll just have to settle for what I can take. :heh:

That's actually become my job when Rystil runs a game...making a list of character choices.

It's definitely workable, particularly for certain concepts--I probably wouldn't make a Wizard with those though

I'm just too scatterbrained :lol:

It doesn't really work for my swashbuckler idea either, but I'll make do.
