Here's where you can post your finished characters - the 'Sailors on the Seas of Fate'! IC Thread OOC Thread Party Background Artemis and Anemone have served together on various ships and have made a career for themselves as mercenary help, and along with the Belcadiz blademaster Esteban...

It's after 4.36am. The time was in the first post; so I shouldn't worry about waking someone up - we need information!

Alistia goes to the old woman, and misses Ryon sounding off about something or other. He was going to be insufferable she realised.

Here's The Sailors' Gallery - post your PC there when I've checked him/her out and given the thumbs-up. They're all great backgrounds and very interesting builds - we even have violin player! Bonus feat - Mercantile background -Benefit +2 to all Appraise checks and +2 bonus in a Craft or...

Alistia looks at her new companions with mild disapproval as they bicker and try to get one up on each other. "You know... instead of listening to the sound of your own voices, perhaps you ought to listen to what people have to say. You all act like you know so much, but at the end of the day...

Bonus feats: Stormheart - The sea is in your blood. You are no stranger to sea chases and blood on the decks. Benefit: Gain +2 bonus on Balance and Profession (sailor) checks. You ignore any hampered movement penalties for fighting on pitching or slippery decks, and gain a +1 dodge bonus to AC...

No worries :D Not as many variant rules as the Death in Freeport game though ;)

Alistia gapes open-mouthed at Erin's rudeness.

I'm still deciding what to give some people... and we need the rest of the PCs before we can begin in earnest.

As I mentioned in the previous thread... there are no thinblades and lightblades. No elves around to make them. ANd no, I'm not going to just rename them. :D

Surprised by Ryon's question, Alistia considers it. That does seem funny that the one place the spirits would choose would be somewhere that had a big stone building here already. Maybe the spirits built it a long time ago?

Class defense bonus is based on armour profiency, spellcasting has no bearing on it, so they would use Column D. Wik - I don't have Spell Compendium so you'd have to write out the whole spell for me, but I have Complete Adventurer, and PHB II, Manual of the Planes (can't remember what spells...

The same as anyone else - character class has no bearing on the AC and DR of armour. Full plate would be +4 AC and DR 4/- http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/adventuring/armorAsDamageReduction.htm

I would say that the duskblde is comparable to the druid in power, and would be unfairly nerfed by putting it in Column B. Armour prof doesn't come into it really. It's spell progression that matters, and that would be drastically reduced if Column B were used. Column A it is. A duskblade...

wysiwyg - I'm going to give you each a special background feat. Oh and as Mr Nice Guy DM (for the moment anyway) you should buy a ranged weapon of some kind. You'll thank me later. :] Sorry to contradict you, but as I said in the initial thread we're going to be ruling that armour bonus...

Well, it was very tough to decide, but decide I have! The chosen characters are: Nac Mac Feegle - Esteban the duskblade/swashbuckler (Belcadiz) Shayuri - Anemone the cleric (Nimean) Wik - Zariv the abjurer (Imarr) Redclaw - Theon Marinatos the rogue/sorcerer? (Minroan) Wysiwyg - Artemis the...

EDit: see last post for recruitment blurb. Well, here it is - the OOC thread! The characters: Nac Mac Feegle - Esteban the duskblade/swashbuckler (Belcadiz) Shayuri - Anemone the cleric (Nimean) Wik - Zariv the abjurer (Imarr) Redclaw - Theon Marinatos the rogue/sorcerer (Minroan) - checked...

Just a heads-up; if you haven't already done so, please provide a name and a little snippet of background if you wish to be considered. Thanks! It will be very tough to decide...

I doubt very much the systems were designed to emulate reality, more likely they were a compilation of different rules and ideas from years of play that were never cohesive. It wasn't designed to be confusing... it was just confusing.

I'm reading the other thread - it's very entertaining. Personally I think we seem to be pursuing our investigation in the way that a group of smart, knowledgable characters in a D&D world would.
