D&D 5E Exodus (OOC)

[Phoenix8008]

Updated to add ability scores and a few other character details and changed the name slightly. "Airman Abington" was bugging me with the double A's.

The more I think about this campaign, the more excited I get. Maybe even eclipsing the regular D&D games I'm getting into currently. I love the idea of mixing science/real world with magic and fantasy elements. Reminds me of the Alternity game system. Also, I LOVED Stargate: Universe so this scenario of being stuck on a ship far away from home and discovering all these new things is just too cool.

I like Dr. Sanduine, MortalPlague!

I'm hoping for about four or five players. Once we have at least four, I'll put up a RG thread.

The Exodus idea has been in my head since the AD&D 2nd Edition days. I've run it a few times with varying levels of success.

 

[Shayuri]

Do we have the option of starting with the alternative racial package for humans?

+1 to two ability scores, bonus trained skill and bonus feat?

Or just the vanilla +1 to everything?

 

[KirayaTiDrekan]

Yes, you may choose the variant human racial traits. Run the feat by me to see if it requires any modification due to the modern/future setting.

 

[Shayuri]

Here she is then; Juno Reyes, who survived the initial invasion of Earth by the skin of her teeth and has the nightmares to prove it. I was thinking it'd be neat if she had a cybernetic arm or something as a souvenir. Nothing that would change her game stats...is that kind of tech available?

Oh, also, do our Constitution modifiers apply to the starting hit point totals?

Feat is good to go. As for prosthetics, 3D printed prosthetic limbs are pretty common by the 2050s, so I see no problems there. Gives me something to play with, storywise, too.

 

[Shayuri]

Supercool. I know -exactly- what I'm going to pick for a class with this character.

 

[KirayaTiDrekan]

What do you have in mind, if I may inquire?

 

[Shayuri]

A Hunter Ranger with Dragons as a favored enemy. One bit her arm off!

Also, to repeat, since I edited it in later: Oh, also, do our Constitution modifiers apply to the starting hit point totals?

 

[KirayaTiDrekan]

Yes. Ability score modifiers work in all the places they are supposed to.
