    Merrick walks over to the embarrassed halfling and sits down next to him. "Tell me, little one, more about your ancestor? I couldn't help over hearing your conversation. My name is Merrick and it would honor me to know the whole story and all that were involved. It angers me when others try to...

    I decide to just walk to the place I've setup to sleep in and rest up before the adventure starts. I want to make sure that I'm in the right frame of mind before things get bad.

    I step forward and say very calmly. "My name is Merrick and I kill things..." I turn from the group and go sit in one of the empty chairs sitting under the tent.

    I scratch my head thinking over the problem. The nagging feeling of being overwhelmed keeps gnawing at the back of my mind. I decide that my curiosity is too strong to not ask the question. "Duke, thank you for letting us participate in this adventure. I have a quick question for you... How...

    D&D 5E The Fall of Blackmoor (OOC)

    Mother was elven...the character has no clue about the father. So anything goes on that front. The mother never talked about his father except to say that he was a vile evil man. The mother raised him in the elven ways of nature and that's why he ran towards the woods when she died.

    D&D 5E The Fall of Blackmoor (OOC)

    Looking at doing a Half Elf Druid character. Going along the lines of his mother was killed when he was child (10 yo) and he ran to the swamp to hide. Encountered an Animal Spirit and was entrusted to care over the sacred part of the swamp. When he was older (57 yo) an explosion from a...

    D&D 5E The Fall of Blackmoor (OOC)

    Once the Origins game gets going and I'd like to roll a character for this game as well. I actually own this book and don't have to use an alternate version like the RC. This kind of setting is right up my alley!!

    [BECMI] Paths of Legend: Origins

    Ohh oops. Guess I read that all wrong. Sorry! Math is like a foreign language to me. The hit points I had just added the con to my roll. Didn't know that there was a certain formula to it. I thought I had done the stats right though. I took the INT and WIS points down 4 points each and...
