Eberron: The Plumbers OOC

Roll in Coyote Code and paste here is fine.

I think I'm going to make up the Aundairan wizard, unless that leads to problems for party balance. Any concerns?

Will you allow the Variant human trait rules from the PHB? (+1 to two char, 1 skill prof, 1 feat)

One good one at least:
Eberron abilities: 4D6.HIGH(3) = [5, 1, 4, 4] = 13
4D6.HIGH(3) = [2, 5, 6, 1] = 13
4D6.HIGH(3) = [3, 1, 5, 4] = 12
4D6.HIGH(3) = [5, 6, 1, 4] = 15
4D6.HIGH(3) = [6, 5, 3, 6] = 17
4D6.HIGH(3) = [4, 3, 1, 1] = 8

Where in Eberron are we starting?

_: 4D6.HIGH(3) = [3, 2, 6, 5] = 14
4D6.HIGH(3) = [6, 3, 1, 6] = 15
4D6.HIGH(3) = [2, 3, 5, 3] = 11
4D6.HIGH(3) = [6, 4, 3, 3] = 13
4D6.HIGH(3) = [3, 1, 4, 5] = 12
4D6.HIGH(3) = [1, 2, 1, 5] = 8


Hah, I ended up with basically the Standard Array anyway.

Just how concerned should we be with party balance?

I’d say party balance looks pretty good for now. With a Druid, fighter, wizard and ranger I think we got all bases covered.

Eberron char gen: 4D6.HIGH(3) = [4, 4, 1, 1] = 9
4D6.HIGH(3) = [2, 5, 3, 6] = 14
4D6.HIGH(3) = [6, 2, 5, 3] = 14
4D6.HIGH(3) = [4, 4, 3, 5] = 13
4D6.HIGH(3) = [1, 3, 1, 3] = 7
4D6.HIGH(3) = [5, 6, 5, 1] = 16


So that gives me 16, 14, 14, 13, 9, 7. A nice mix of high and low scores. Cool!

Personality I have very eccentric fashion tastes, which could easily be described as gaudy or garish. I know what I like, and if others don’t, too bad for them.
Ideals I enjoy helping those in need, but I’ll always ask for a reward, however small.
Bonds I will never admit it, but I care deeply about my family and clan.
Flaws I can be extremely stubborn, especially to anyone who thinks they can order me around.

EDIT Background Story:
One of the many nephews of archdruidess Maagrim Torrn, Liutbrand showed an aptitude for nature magic at a young age. His path in life was pretty much set: with his parents' consent (or so Liutbrand has been told), he was inducted in a Gatekeeper druidic circle at the age of 9. Nowadays, Liutbrand can hardly remember his parents.

Being a member of a dragonmarked house and an apprentice druid, young adult Liutbrand was spared the horrors of the Last War. However, his life at the circle wasn't the best. His druid mentor, Nargos Torrn, was an unfair man, with harsh training methods. He was also a big hypocrite in Liutbrand's eyes, asking for high standards of diligence and restraint from his students, while being a drunken slob himself.
A year ago, his druidic training not finished yet, after a massive argument with his mentor, Liutbrand escaped the circle, quickly disappearing into the Deepwood.
In the wilds, he survived on his own for several months, hunting and foraging, and quickly developed the skills of a self-taught ranger. Being completely alone in a bandit-infested wilderness, he almost ended up killed on a few occasions.

In the end, he returned at his house's HQ near Zarash’ak, ready to defiantly accept the consequences of his insubordination. Several house members called for punishment. House leader Maagrim Torrn, despite being rather disappointed with her nephew's behavior, decided to be lenient (possibly because she was aware of Nargos Torrn's personality and methods). Liutbrand was assigned the lowly job of house courier.

Liutbrand was actually very happy with his new job and life. He was finally allowed to travel the world, see new people, and the nature of his job gave him ample opportunity to put his self-taught skills to the test.
