Blaise has not overtly shared that before. He did get animated when Blackbeard brought it up so it's fair game for someone to suspect something. I also bombed a roll with Blackbeard so he definitely suspects something.

Blaise took the offered date and ate while he listened. "Blackbeard is not a man to be casually crossed, but he is just a man. A shrewd and powerful man, but still just a man. His eyes were sharp when we met with him, but he wasn’t able to hide everything. When I tried to get a feel for who...

Blaise walks to stand near Kat and stares off into the distance in front of them, "It's been a long day already, captain, and it seems like we'll see the sun again before we get any real rest. We need to be ready for what's coming. Do we have a plan for Blackbeard?"

Quickleaf mentioned that he has some rules for them when he PM'd the playtest docs. I don't think they've been laid out. I'm mostly just future proofing (and trying to stay in genre) since I know the rules exist. If the rules are mild or able to be mitigated, I can revisit the armor situation...

My apologies to the group. The last few days I have been absolutely slammed and didn't have the time to work on finishing up the character. I will try to finish him asap.

Would my guy being in the employ of the Sheikh help matters?

I was thinking that he could be a survivor of a caravan that was attacked by the Brotherhood of the True Flame. He manages to kill a few while the rest of the caravan is raided and stolen. He's left to die (not worth the trouble to kill him) in the sands. He doesn't. He makes it back to the...

I appreciate the thought, but I want to run a full fighter. It'll help playtest the subclass more. It'll be fine. Like I said, I didn't realize that the money actually existed in the story. I thought it was just a function of character creation. I'm invested in making a character that fits...

Ancalagon if you join and get to look at the playtest packet, visualize how nasty two Fighter/Guardians would be fighting side by side. Look at "Uphold the Meek" at 10th level and how that synergizes with Guardian's Mark (3rd level ability). The point of a playtest is to push the system. Help...

A few more notes (sorry, I should have reread everything), I was initially going to push AC until I heard there were penalties for medium/heavy armor. The Fighter/Guardian subclass is essentially a sticky fighter that keeps enemies on him so turtling makes sense. I don't know what the...

I'm going to cop to something here. I didn't realize the gold actually existed in game. I thought it was just part of character creation. I'm still interested in hearing how magical items might be priced, but it sounds like there's actual narrative built around the money. I won't disturb...

Robbing from your companions is no way to begin a new and profitable friendship! Rest your hands, my light fingered friend, lest they get chopped off (they do that around here, you know). We have no need for theft when we can work together to profit everyone!

What greater joy does a father have than to see his son alive, healthy, and wealthier than when he left? This is not spending your father's money. No, my good sir! This is investing your father's money! I don't know how Quickleaf wants to price these things, but that will certainly determine...

I would be okay with you buying that item, but are you not wearing armor at all?

My fellow players, we come to this game not to die, but to live! And with that life to bring bountiful honor amongst ourselves. We stand at the precipice of glories scarcely dreamt of by lesser men and women. Should we shirk from this destiny? Should we allow these glories to pass to...

Quick question: Can the 47,500 gp party pool be used to buy magical items?

Okay, I rolled up some stats: _: 4D6.HIGH(3) = [2, 2, 4, 1] = 8 4D6.HIGH(3) = [3, 4, 1, 4] = 11 4D6.HIGH(3) = [3, 1, 3, 3] = 9 4D6.HIGH(3) = [6, 5, 5, 3] = 16 4D6.HIGH(3) = [6, 6, 3, 6] = 18 4D6.HIGH(3) = [5, 5, 3, 4] = 14 I'll hopefully have the character worked up by this afternoon.

I'm going to take some time to absorb all the information, but right now, I'm leaning towards Fighter-Guardian. If we pick up anyone else, I would just like to throw out that two Guardians would be absolutely brutal fighting beside each other.

tglassy Wait for the play test docs so you know all your options. The bard or one of the rogue subclasses may be exactly what you're looking for.

I'll let the established players weigh in on that, tglassy. Quickleaf, since I'm not set on any particular character at the moment, is there an option (or options) in the playtest material that you most want to see in play to check it? When you PM the material, I can direct my attention that...
