4e Stranded

[Jemal]

If it's any consolation, Daniel looks & acts human (As many half-elves do to fit in).

 

[Jemal]

Humans are awesome, but Half-elves make the best healers with their ability to take an at will power as an encounter power. Additional Healing powers is key.

Character Info:
Daniel Willow, Half-elf Cleric. age: 22

Daniel was an aggressive young boy, always flying off the handle and getting into fights... Until the day he punched his best friend when she tried to pull him out of yet another scrap. Though she forgave him, he never really forgave himself, and after that, vowed to never fight again. His vow came back to haunt him, though.. 5 years later, his village was attacked. He refused to take up arms against the kobold invaders, urging everyone to run and hide while the soldiers took care of it. His cowardice cost him the life of his best friend, for while he was trying to flee with her, she was struck down by an arrow. A fierce scream of denial burned through him and manifested itself in a ray of light which destroyed the kobold.

Over the next year, Daniel managed to come to terms with his grief and anger, guided by the hand of the Raven Queen, who took in the spirit of his beloved friend. He has since accepted that people die, but that guided by the queen, he can help to protect those whose time has not yet come, and when his time does come, he trusts that he will be reunited with his friend.

*Magic Item: I choose a holy symbol of life as his magic item, it is a momento of his fallen friend that he now uses to channel the power of the Raven Queen..*

How's it look?

Well, if you're a cleric anyways, getting another at-will power as an at-will power (human) instead of as an encounter-power (half-elf) does make a better healer in the sense of "I-have-more-healing-powers".

I also think lay-on-hands does not qualify (RAW) for half-elf dilettante, as it is a class feature and not an 'at-will-power'

 

[Jemal]

Except that clerics have ZERO at-will healing powers to choose from.

And the description of Lay on hands calls it an at-will power.

 

[Zweischneid]

never mind..

I agree that the half-elf dilettante is poorly worded. Let Rayex make the last call. It's his game.

However in my reading, lay-on hands is an (at-will) class feature, not a power, which are exploits, prayers, spells.

The official errata makes it a bit more clear in line with (I think) my interpretation.

I just realized that I had already answered the question I was asking above myself within the time frame where you can edit your post without it showing as edited...

The class features section under Paladins explain thats it has three abilities that function 'like' powers, making a distinction that class features aren't powers. Same thing for the respec section, stating you can swap out powers, feats, ect, but not class features.
