Age of Mortals - The Knights of Solamnia

[Ferrix]

i could toss up a basic for my character once we get a rogue gallery up

 

[evileeyore]

Okay i'll have the Dragonlance book tomorrow.

Just to help concrete some thoughts here...

Paxus Wizard/Fighter (Arcane Warrior) Aiming for WoHS
Ferrix Fighter/Rogue (Acro Fighter)
Brother S Fighter/Noble 4 Clc/KoC 2 (Classic Knight) Aiming for KoS
Shal Sorc/Fighter 4 Sorc/KoC 2 (Arcane Warrior)
Goddess ?
Jarval ?
Kahuna ?
Lichen ?
EvilE WRanger/URanger 4 (Rogue or Noble)/KoC 2 (Manhunter)

After I get the DL book I can look over Noble and make a few decisions...

I am also considering a Clc/Rogue (Urbane Manhunter)...

Well actualy I'm still pushing numbers around mentally...

I should have it firmed up after getting the book, and have a character posted the day after.

Well, I could make the Breastplate:

Silent Glamored Twilight Dragon Metal +3
or
I can go with a different +1 enhancement, can anyone suggest another +1 enhancement?

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

There's always light fortification.

 

[Ferrix]

To those arcane knight, you can qualify for spellsword at level 4, one level lets you ignore 10% arcane spellfailure. And since creamsteak is allow us to progress in a knight PrC and another at the same time, you could easily ignore all your spellfailure stuff with a breastplate.

Spellsword reqs: BAB +4, Know (arcana) 6 ranks, prof (all armor, simple and martial weapons), 2nd level spells

I could easily see a progression like this:

Fighter-Arcane Caster 4/KoC-Spellsword 1/KoC-Arcane Caster

That first level of spellsword also gives you a +1 caster level, good fort and will saves and good BAB.

Thus you'd end up with full caster progression and with twilight dragonmetal fullplate, only have an arcane spell failure of 5%, with any medium armor you'd have no arcane spell failure.

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.

I'll allow the Spontaneously Dispelling abjurer variant from Unearthed Arcanna over the FRCS feat. Are you going to be playing one of the balance mages? (I can't remember if they had red as their color or what... but in the 3rd book in the warriors saga I remember one holding back an entire navy because he was working against both of the other moons or some-such.)

Rogues gallery is up over here.

 

[Creamsteak]

Very good eye Ferrix. I was thinking about that earlier today, but I failed to mention it.

 

[Jarval]

Here's a quick outline of the stats I'm working with at the moment. In terms of equipment, I'm thinking a chain shirt for armor, and a longsword-handaxe combination for weapons, with a composite shortbow for ranged.

Obviously, I've still got to write up my background, name my character and so on, but this should give a bit of an idea of what I'm planning.

Okay, I will attempt to have an character up in the next few days... but I am job-hunting at the moment, so I don't know how much time I will have. CS, if I take too long for you, let me know and I'll drop.

Also, I believe you said no paladins - even the paladins from your attached house rules? I had been thinking of going paladin/fighter, but I might go fighter/cleric... Do you allow the favored soul from the miniature's handbook?

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

Are you going to be playing one of the balance mages? (I can't remember if they had red as their color or what... but in the 3rd book in the warriors saga I remember one holding back an entire navy because he was working against both of the other moons or some-such.)

No, sirree. Them boys is neutral, and we Solamnic fellers have got to be law-abiding and nicy-nice. I's a White Robe, boss. One question, though; for the Spontaneous Dispelling, is that gained at Wizard level 5, or caster level 5? It determines whether I get to be a White Robe yet, or have to hare off to a Conclave to take the Test in-game.
