I got a little choked up reading your description of the scene.... At the very least, you have an excellent sense of what strings to pull and how to deliver an evocative description. I am sure your players could not help but be affected.

Marksman.

Sitting here, enjoying a relaxing afternoon, reading through Volo's Guide. And it's difficult to express my anger. It's too good. Every third sentence is inspiration for a character, and adventure plot, a campaign! In one hour I have more ideas that I can use in a lifetime of playing. Not...

What Jar said, with regards to a new setting. With that said, there are still so many stories to tell, within the established settings. We don't need a new setting, not because "everything has already been done," but expressly because because every story has not been told. There is still so...

My guess is combo Planescape/Spelljammer. Keith Baker become much more "busy" about 6-8mo ago. If he had begun working with WotC on Eberron, this summer is way too soon for Eberron (unless it's just a quick pdf and opening DMs Guild...). My guess is Eberron, with the artificer, next year. My...

“Pardon me, Wendel,” Janus apologizes, resting a hand on Wendel’s shoulder to help steady him. Janus frowns as he listens to Wendel’s predicament. “In whose care was this baboon? Yours? Wendel, you know better than to take your eye off your charge.” He sighs, grasping Wendel’s shoulder with...

*sigh* This looks amazing. I've been looking forward to something like this for years. Leverage and National Treasure in D&D! But, once again, WotC dashes my hopes for Eberron. I know I can modify this, probably pretty easily, that's not a problem. But this would have been the perfect...

That is exactly my thought. Ensaring strike would actually be the ground beneath cracking open and and taking hold, thunderous strike would be the sound of the rocks splitting, and his cloak of protection is composed of what looks like panels of slate.

Okay, here is my proposed character! A more in depth personality/background description is coming. In a nutshell, Nopathuk is the embodiment of the spirits of the mountains. NOPATHUK WINDSPEAKER Lawful Good Goliath Paladin 8...

Sounds like a plan! Are we building to optimize, or do we have room for more roleplaying? I have a goliath paladin ready to go, if that fits!

I'm definitely interested, if there ends up being a spot. I can put up an 8th-level character, if you're selecting, in the next day or so. Anything in particular I should pay attention to, background or build -wise? Would it behoove me to get started on your IC thread?

“That’ll be 65 silver.” “Are you sure?” Janus asks, incredulous. “We agreed to 55 yesterday.” “Price has gone up.” Janus pauses counting. He returned home several weeks ago, and though family and old friends have welcomed him, not everyone appreciates the reminder of faraway wars. He wears...

Got it. The "a soldier returned home" gave me some background story inspiration. I'll have him working on his family farm, but not owned by him.

Very excited to get started! I don't want to overstep or introduce more narrative elements than I should, figured I'd ask here, first. Can Janus have a plot of land, inherited by a deceased family member? Overgrown and neglected, that Janus has been toiling on since returning?

An expanded Description: Sergeant Janus “The Griffon” Alderan has spent the past 15 years stationed on the outskirts of civilization. Too many good men and women have fallen at his side, and he has grown jaded and resigned to the realities of war and death. He still has nightmares. Janus finds...

Welcome. When do you start your first campaign?

Feats, because currently we have the greatest dearth. At this point, creating new magic items, monsters, even subclasses is easier then gauging the value of a Feat. Plus, I like spellcasters, and there are, what, two?, feats at all useful? The right answer, however, is setting material...

My quick, not-very-thought-out response. Any "solution to build ... rules benefits that accumulate only at the 3rd + encounter" is additional bookkeeping. As simple as it might seem, it won't happen. Human psychology is very poor with juggling longterm vs. immediate gratification. The real...

It's been a long time since I've PbP'ed. Now, I actually have the time! Through this guy together, though he's been rattling around in my head for years. I can edit as needed. 27 point buy, starting equipment (though I switched out a javelin for one of my martial weapons). Janus - Human...
