Okay didn't see this before. I don't have the DMG so what exactly do I need to know?

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Crunch for the Half-Elven Cleric posted to RG, I'll follow up soon with description/personality/backstory/etc.

 

[Charwoman Gene]

D'oh. I guess I should have waited to see if I got a spot before I made a character.

I guess you are an alt... it wouldn't be THAT hard to beef up the second group to use 6 players... Oh boy... It's gotten to the point I can't tell what pbp game I'm playing in or GMing.

 

[Shayuri]

Hm! So okay...

A cleric, a paladin, a warlock and a ranger...and me.

I see room for a melee basher, and a controller.

Dang, I don't know which would be better, partywise. I love wizards in 4e, so that's easy...but I just got Martial Power too...and there's a lot of good stuff in there.

Hm!

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

If it helps, my cleric will be a primarily melee character (doin' the Battle Cleric route).

 

[Charwoman Gene]

I'm technically running 4 games right now. I'm swamped. I'm not feeling this character either. Can Oni have my spot? He said he could do Wizard, which you could use.

 

[Shayuri]

Meep...I was just about to take wizard. Hee hee.

But that's cool. If you don't want to do a ranger, I could totally do that. I'd love to try a Beastmaster ranger from Martial Power...

Oni can absolutely have your spot if you can't do it right now. Thanks for being straight-up about it and not just disappearing without notice.

Shayuri - I'm not in the habit of telling you no, but I'm going to have to remind you that that Player's Handbook is the only approved source this time. Sorry. If you still want to to do a wizard, go for it. Nothing says there can't be two.

Reveille - Honestly, nothing. As long as you follow the guidelines I posted, and keep track of how many powers you're supposed to have, you'll be golden. Those rules are mainly for characters starting out in much later levels, and tell you how many of which type of powers you're supposed to have and such. Quite handy, really... but not necessarily prudent in this case.

 

[Shayuri]

Meep! My bad! Sorry about that. Forgot about that restriction or I wouldn't have even floated the idea.

Well shucks...I've already got a rogue and an archery ranger in other games, so I dunno if I want to tread those paths again.

But I find that there really aren't enough spells, particularly at low levels, for two wizards not to step on each other's toes. Maybe I'm wrong on that though.

Oni, what do you think? You called it first, so I'm happy to cede wizard to ya...

 

[Oni]

Charwoman Gene, thankyou.

I'd be happy to play a dwarven infernal pact warlock, with a little multi dip in mage, that should be sufficiently unique from either a straight wizard or an eladrin starlock.

I just realized as I sat down to suggest this though that there can only be one warlock curse on any given target which is probably an issue. Am I reading it right that a lock can gain extra curse damage on a target even if someone else cursed it? If Reveille doesn't mind sharing pact boons a bit I'll go this route, though we should both stay away from the rod of corruption then probably.
