    D&D 5E (2014) Darksun times of change[Oc]closed]

    Before this finishes getting derailed into a thread about darkvision... ;) I posted links in the RG to my character sheet and background on Google Drive. I expanded my background, building on the great stuff Fradak did. Specifically I expanded on my character's relationship to the idea that...

    Well, Fradak's bard is already my slave. It might be a bit much to have the three of us share a background story. But if that sounds good to others I'm not against it. Take a look at our backgrounds posted in the thread and see if you think there's a good way to fit your half giant into that...

    Azurewraith you said something about getting going Wednesday. Is there anything you're waiting on from us (at least me)? You also said something about opening an RG, and I don't know what that is (PbP n00b alert!). I just want to make sure I'm not missing something and holding things up. Sent...

    Rolled Stats: 15, 15, 18, 17, 10, 15 No wonder this guy became a Templar! Then again, rerolling like this means the lowest you can get is a 9, which with basic racial adjustments usually makes for 10+ in all stats. Dark Sun, where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and...

    I'll reroll my warlock/templar and drop 1s and 2s. It's been asked but I don't think answered: when rerolling 1s and 2s do we just reroll them once, or keep doing it ad infinitum until they are no longer 1 or 2? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    Cool. Then I'll just ignore it on my character sheet. All weapons are bone, say, unless noted otherwise. Is that the only difference, that they break 10% of the time?

    Here's my character sheet. There are a few question marks. Do different non-metal weapon materials have different properties, or does everything break on a 1 or 2? Also, as a Warlock I only have proficiency with simple weapons, but using a Whip seems like a good fit, and it's not an especially...

    I rolled my templar/ warlock up analog. After human racial adjustments his stats are 12,13,16,13,14,16. The wild talent I rolled was Object Projection. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    That's totally fine with me. I'm not even sure what I have potentially in mind for my (ex?) Templar is really an "evil campaign" anyway. I'm mostly imagining him afraid of losing his power and position now that his patron the sorcerer king is dead, and being focused on maintaining and...

    It could actually be sweet to play something like an evil campaign, especially if you're going to run two groups. Defiler, warlock/templar with a half giant follower/thrall (if that player is game for that), and I don't know what. But I'm not sure if evil PCs + Dark Sun conversion + running two...

    I'm thinking about a sorcerer king pact warlock. I reckon that fills a similar role to the old templar. Could be a good fit as the master of Aramalian's half giant. Couple questions. 1. If we're starting in Tyr and its sorcerer king has been killed, does that affect a warlock with him as...

    For wild talents, if you're planning on using the Mystic class as the foundation, at least, for the DS psionicist, why not use the Mystic cantrips as the wild talent options? There are 12, so it could be a d12 roll if you wanted. I think warlock with Dragon King as patron sounds awesome...

    As you say, it's very rough, which is understandable when you're creating a campaign world source book! Your rendering of Elves and Half-Elves feel almost identical to each other. I also don't understand, based on my experience with 2e Dark Sun, how Sorcerers and Warlocks make sense in the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd help

    I'm playing my Strahd as more of a patient long game player, secure in the knowledge that his power and immortality mean he never has to react hastily. Yes, he's annoyed with the trouble the PCs are making, but he's at least as pleased to have a diversion from the humdrum of Barovia. And I'm...

    I'm interested as well. Dark Sun was my favorite setting back in the 2E days. Keep me posted! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using EN World mobile app

    Character background narrative writing

    Hopefully this is the best forum for this offer. If you have a sketch of a PC background that you would like to see filled out into a narrative story, post it here and I'll write it up for you. For a sample of what I'm talking about check this thread. For now I'll commit to doing one story a...

    I want to share an update with where our party has made it to. We've defeated Wintersplinter, but when we observed (and failed to interrupt) the Wintersplinter ritual, Strahd invited us to dinner. We hopped in the carriage that was presented and dined with Strahd. He extended 'guest...

    I'm no digging expert either, but remember that there's a big difference between digging a grave and digging up a grave. To wit, you don't need to go six feet under when you're just digging up a grave, and you only have to get enough of the hole dug up to be able to open the coffin, if you're...

    Need a decent writer to edit my backstory

    Here you go! I'm not sure if this is what you had in mind. I didn't exactly edit what you had posted, because the writing there really wasn't as bad as you seem to think. Instead I embellished it with details and turned it into a narrative. I didn't add anything significant. I gave a few...
