Age of Mortals - The Knights of Solamnia

[Creamsteak]

I'll allow Shal and Evil in if they want, but this means that I'll want all 8 characters done within a reasonably short amount of time (I'd say 3 days) if at all possible. This way I can quickly review them. This is for stats though, as I expect that backgrounds will slowly be uncurled as we get going.

Sure. But what do you do when you have a really strange progression?

Like next level when she becomes a KoS and goes back to being a noble and picks up level 5?

You list each instance seperate. This will at least make it possible for me to always know exactly how you took each level so there are no questions of skill points or hit points (in other words, I might be confused to read Rogue 4/Fighter 5/Barbarian 5/Wizard 4 where some levels were in Wizard/Rogue and others in Fighter/Barbarian or if there were some odd-mixed levels). So I would expect a character to list the total levels in each instance of class gaining (Fighter-Samurai 4/ Fighter-Monk 8) and such. I can always just sum up total levels in class x to get the current abilities your capable of, but it's important for me to know how you took those levels for skills/saves/BAB/HPs.

Also, this game will "likely" have a lot of seperation. At times there may be two groups of 4 now that there are eight total, and it wouldn't be entirely unusual for one or two members to handle one set of duties (arm and train the townspeople before the Baaz attack!) while another set of 2 or 3 handle the other aspects of some sort of activity. This, I feel, fits in well with traditional Dragonlance storytelling and also matches quite well with the size and makeup of the group, not to mention the fact that the medium permits it.

Note that I still won't use spoiler tags for this game. They would ruin the feel. I'd rather everyone know everything OOC and I trust them to be honest, than to leave parts of the story untold to certain players.

Shouldn't be an issue with me as I did some of it over the weekend. (Though not as much as I had hoped.)

Cool, I do have an excel document that I made that keeps track of stuff like that if your at all interested.

PA, I'll start on that PrC as soon as I get home tonight.

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

I like this better than anything that stacks. It's an innate benefit plus an enhancment bonus (the reduction from the magic item property). I would approve of this in this form.

The only problem with this as the sole route is that I end up in a chain shirt, which is hardly proper knightly armor. If that's what you'd like, then I'll do it, but I'd look terribly underdressed.

 

[Shalimar]

Thank You for letting me in, here is the leveling progression I went with:

Sorcerer-Fighter 1
Sorcerer-Fighter 2
Sorcerer-Fighter 3
Sorcerer-Knight of the Crown 4
Sorcerer-Knight of the Crown 5
Sorcerer-Knight of the Crown 6

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

I'm afraid you can't do that, unless I'm misunderstanding the gestalt save progression; you need a +4 base Fort save, which takes 4 levels of fighter.

 

[Ferrix]

Shal, a couple things, your dragonmetal breastplate is already considered masterwork without adding an addition 150 cost to it. Also did Creamsteak say you could double up the twilights? And like pax mentioned Crown Knight is only available once you get a +4 fort save, thus fighter level 4 gets you the bonus, at 5th you can take the PrC. Thus two levels of crown knight rather than 3 (trust me that extra fighter level is good enough).

 

[Shalimar]

Ok, I went back and fixed the level progression, redid the skill points, and added weapon specialization Bastard sword.

As far as the twilight enchantment, if its not doubled up, I only have a 5% spell failure chance, my goal was not to have any, either way its fine, if not doubling up I need to choose a new +1 bonus, I'd be open to suggestions as I have a limited library (DLCS, DMG, PHB)

Glamored 2,700
Silent 3,750
Twilight Enchantment +1
Twilight Enchantment +1
+4(+2 after Tiwlight) Breastplate 16,200
Dragon Metal 4,000
26,650 GP total

Suck it up. Suffer Arcane Spell Failure and wear Full-Plate. I know you want to. Or, cast all your spells with the still spell metamagic feat and don't worry about it at all.

No stacking of enhancement bonuses of any kind.

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

Then I stick with the Chain, and rely on my heavily armored horse, large shield (also twilight dragonmetal) and ancestral crest to provide the proper knightly demeanor.

I should be able to put up a character as soon as we've got a Rogue's Gallery; I'd just like to ask if it's possible to use either the Signature Spell feat (from FRCS, requires Spell Mastery, allows spontaneous casting of one Mastered spell in a fashion similar to cleric spontaneous casting), or the Spontaneous Dispelling abjurer variant from Unearthed Arcana.
