[QUOTE="Zemarah, post: 4655300, member: 82304"] Okay, I figure I'll embarass myself a little now. I'm having trouble adjusting my character sheet. Finally dug out my MM and took a look at the EXTENSIVE breakdown. I'm listing my char and my guesses at the alterations. And a few questions. Any help is welcome. I always had trouble with the MM. [B][U][SIZE=6]Original [/SIZE][/U][/B] Cleric 7/Rogue 2 ELF STR 12 AM 1 DEX 16 AM 2 CON 12 AM 1 INT 16 AM 3 WIS 16 AM 3 CHA 13 AM 1 FORT 9 REF 5 Will 8 HP 59 AC 28= Armor Bonus 10 +Shield Bonus 4+ Dex Mod 2+Feat 2 BAB +5 Grapple +6 [SIZE=6][B][U]Lycanthrope/Cleric/Rogue ELF[/U][/B][/SIZE] STR AM 2 DEX AM 4 CON AM 4 Wisdom: 18 AM 4 BAB Human: 7 / Wolf: 7 / Hybrid: 7 Grapple: Human: 9 / Wolf: 10 / Hybrid: 10 AC Human 29 / Wolf: 19 / Hybrid 19 +4 Survival in all forms? Feats: Improved Init, Iron Will, Stealthy, Track, Weapon Focus (bite) And all the attacks that are listed I have. [B][SIZE=6]The big questions I have are: [/SIZE][/B] 1. Do I modify my Ability score to match the Ability Modifiers that the MM provides? And does that score only apply in wolf/hybrid form? 2. Do I roll the extra HD for my HPs with my DM for my wolf/hybrid form only? What dice? The MM explained this like I should already know-which I should, but whatev-and it explained a way to alter the HD they provide using my consititution mod...but they GAVE me my stupid CON AM so why the hell would I have to alter it? 3. I'm supposed to go up in level. +2 for afflicted. Does this mean I'm a Level 10 Cleric/Rogue/Lycan until I'm cured? OR Does the level adjust only count when I'm in form? Also I'm supposed to get extra skpnts for going up in level. Is my new rank max 13 now? 4. And I quote from the MM: "Afflicted lycanthrope: damage reduction 5/silver (in animal or hybrid form only)" <===huh? I know this means something. I'm absolutely sure of it. Please help. 5. Another quote: "Racial Feats: Add the animal's Hit Dice to the base character's own Hit Dice to determine how many feats the character has." <===I swear they told me that they altered the 'animal's' hit dice to begin with which I was supposed to alter to fit my base creature. 6. It says that I get more feats based on the level adjustments, and any extra due to the gift of feats at acheiving lycanthropy can be considered bonuses. To clarify: They gave me five feats when I got afflicted. If I go up a couple levels I can't see how I could possibly attain more than five feats. Why would they mention that if it doesn't seem possible? Why didn't they just say: "The extra feats are considered bonuses." and not even say that you're due the extra feats from gaining the levels? These are my questions, and all of the information I have learned from reading the accursed MM. If it seems I left something out, please let me know. I may not know that there's something else. I really desperately need your help so I can start to be a competant player instead of a filthy leach on the campaign. I swear I know some stuff, but my ignorance of the number game has messed me up in this turn of events.
