[QUOTE="Steve Gorak, post: 7876200, member: 15132"] Allright, I’ve tweaked my character: made him a winged tiefling but continue to call him a half elf because of his backstory. I am hoping he will be able to take both elf and tiefling racial feats if we ever get there. I also took liberties with the skill selection, but they make sense and he has the right number of them. I removed deception, because he is honorable and took perception because of his Elven ancestry. I am also assuming he will be able to multi class out of paladin even though he only has 10 str (I am assuming that since he is an elf, it is fair to switch the 13 requirement to dex). I also tweaked the background and backstory to make him less evil, and with more good tendencies to better fit with the party. I changed the background feature, because who would know an noble from an obscure and corrupt race of elves, this one is also quite cool. so here he is. please let me know if he is approved: [sblock] [B]Name:[/B] Prince Selythin Evastarian [B]Sex:[/B] Male [B]Race:[/B] Half elf (Winged Tieflling stats) [B]Class/Level:[/B] Paladin 1 [B]Alignment:[/B] Lawful neutral [B]Init:[/B] +2 [B]Senses:[/B] Darkvision 60 ft [B]Passive Perception:[/B] 12 [B]DEFENSE AC:[/B] 18 (+4 Scale mail, +2 shield, +2 dex) [B]HP:[/B] 12 [B]Saves:[/B] Wisdom & Charisma [B]Special Defenses:[/B] resistance to fire [B]OFFENSE Speed:[/B] 30ft [B]Melee:[/B] Rapier +4 Attack, 1d8+2 piercing, finesse 2 daggers +4 attack, 1d4+2 piercing, Finesse, light, thrown (range 20/60) shortbow +4 attack, 1d6+2 piercing, ammunition range 80/320, two handed [B]Special Attacks:[/B] none [B]STATISTICS Str[/B] 10 (+0) [B]Dex[/B] 14 (+2) [B]Con[/B] 15 (+2) [+1 race] [B]Int[/B] 8 (-1) [B]Wis[/B] 10 (+0)* [B]Cha[/B] 17 (+3)* [+2 race] [B]SKILLS[/B] Proficiencies in bold: 2 paladin, 2 background +2 (dex) Acrobatics +0 (wis) Animal Handling -1 (int) Arcana [B]+2 (str) Athletics[/B] - from Paladin +2 (cha) Deception -1 (int) History +0 (wis) Insight [b]+5 (cha) Intimidation[/b] - from background -1 (int) Investigation +0 (wis) Medicine -1 (int) Nature [b]+2 (wis) Perception[/b] - from background +3 (cha) Performance [b]+5 (cha) Persuasion[/B] - from Paladin -1 (int) Religion +2 (dex) Sleight of Hand +2 (dex) Stealth **disadvantage because of armor +0 (wis) Survival [B]Tool Proficiencies:[/B] none [B]Languages:[/B]Common, elf (background), infernal (racial), +1 relevant (consult DM) [B]RACE FEATURES[/B] [B]Darkvision:[/B] Can see in dim light within 60' as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it was dim light [B]Wings:[/B] fly 30' when not encumbered and not wearing heavy armor [B]Hellish resistance:[/B] resistant to fire damage [B]Languages:[/B] Common, infernal [B]BACKGROUND FEATURES[/B] Noble, haunted one, evil accolyte blend [B]Feature: Heart of darkness[/B] Those that look into your eyes can see that you have faced unimaginable horror and that you are no stranger to darkness.
