[4e] covaithe's E1: Death's Reach

[renau1g]

Renau1g:

Are you sure you wanto to buy life shrouds? You won't be able to touch bodies that have them, since you're undead.

Yeah, they're more for flavour and I hope it doesn't come down to just my PC left....

I'm going to say no to Dawn Warrior armor, since it's from.... E1: Death's Reach. You guys might find some, but no starting with it.

No problem, I didn't realize that. I've switched to Trollskin, make him harder to kill 1/day

You guys and your cloaks of displacement. Sheesh! Somebody be original!

Ha! Just saw that, I need to be original so I switched for Brooch of Vitality (and its 10 more hp's)

I think (anyone check me on this?) that the Ring of Invigoration's surge benefits from the Belt of Mountain Endurance, so that should be 54 HP.

Likewise Bear's Endurance.

Bear's Endurance shouldn't because Kalas isn't actually using a Healing surge, but rather regaining hp as if you had spent a healing surge (so in other words free healing 1/day), although on the ring of invigoration it should be added in. Thanks!

Throwing shield as a ranged attack; I make it as +21 to hit: +10 (half level) +7 (str) +2 (from the shield's description) +2 (free expertise). What am I missing?

Nope you're not... I suck

Son of Mercy PP is from Dragon 370; I think I'll allow it but I haven't really had time to think it over, so I reserve the right to nerf it after seeing it in play. If I do, you'll have a chance to pick something else.

No problem. I really like all the PP's for Kalas.

Lawbreaker's Doom: when you hit the target, it's slowed until your ENT in addition to taking 7 extra damage.

Updated.

Dispensed justice triggers when the LD target makes an attack that doesn't include you, not just when its attack does include someone else.

Updated.

I'm not done with the powers yet, so I may have more to say in the morning.

Ok, let me know if there are any changes.

After I finished my character and started glancing through some of the others I found it interesting what item and feat choices were popular.

 

[renau1g]

It shows the value that some items are deemed to have (like iron armbands of power for melee classes) to the PC's.

Personally, I prefer properties to powers, which is why I had Dawn Warrior armour originally to gain the resistances to a bunch of elements.

 

[covaithe]

Yeah, the daily limit on magic item daily powers is really a factor, isn't it.

Turns out I don't have anything else to say about powers, so that's good. Background is fine.

 

[Atanatotatos]

I'm back!... and hopefully it will last, this time. My line seemed fixed for a couple of days, but apparently it actually wasn't. Reeeeally been pissed for a few days.
Sorry for the inconvenience, all.

I'm going to finalize Anostor today or tomorrow, he's practically done, but I'll make a nicer sheet for cov, like he asked.
I haven't read everything here yet but I was thinking Orelal might have hired Anostor for an interplanar resque of some sort of mystic jewel or material required for the construction of his tower or for some ritual, and then Duran could have been asked to stay with the group for further purposes... the dream in the headline of the thread might do the job alright.
What do you think?

 

[CaBaNa]

Orelal lost his Shadow close to the point of building his tower, Anostor could have been hired to find it, in some heroic plane jumping chase.

Anostor may have found it just in time to come back for the Domaine de Massacre Ritual Ceremony. Returning, not just with the shadow, but with a very young wyvern as well.

Access to the Domain, as well as a one square tele-circle would be the rewards. (this may not have even been their first interaction...)

That's my quick brain storming over it. Change what you like.

 

[covaithe]

My reading of Anostor (from memory, not from recent re-reading) is that he's motivated more by wanderlust, combat, and a desire for grand adventures than any particular cause or goal. If so, a dream in which he sees himself fighting fearsome foes in an exotic location alongside companions, one of which he recognizes as Orelal, might well be enough to get him to seek Orelal out just to be ready when the fun starts.

Starting tomorrow I'm going to be out-of-town for just over a week. So if it looks like things are going to get moving, feel free to give the slot I'm interested in to someone else.

 

[covaithe]

So I said I'd make a decision in two day, and it hasn't quite been three yet... With no further ado, then, stonegod gets the 6th spot. Welcome aboard!

We've got 3 characters in the RG ready to go. I'm going to be out of town from tomorrow night until sometime on Sunday. I'd like to work towards getting this started early next week. So if you can finish* your characters up by say, Sunday, hopefully we can get this started Monday or Tuesday. Or, you know, shortly thereafter or whatever.

* enough to be going on with, at least. As always, this is about fun, so if you find that your character isn't as much fun as it could be for some mechanical reason, we'll surely be able to work something out later.

 

[stonegod]

Thanks!

I'l start thinking more about Batin today/tonight.
