Anybody gonna run the 4e Steading of the Hill Giant Chief from DDI as a PBP here?

Ok, I've made a first pass through character sheets. I've noted below the post where I found each of your sheets, so if I missed an update, please let me know.
[MENTION=11520]Scotley[/MENTION], from post 44.
[MENTION=59043]Walking Dad[/MENTION], from post 37.
[MENTION=42839]Phaezen[/MENTION], from post 33.
[MENTION=360]drothgery[/MENTION], from post 32. I didn't see any issues on these four characters (although Walking Dad still has gp to spend, I think).

[MENTION=48394]pathfinderq1[/MENTION], from post 55. You have one fewer skill trained than you could have. I suspect you picked Arcana as one of your skills, which caused you to redundantly train it when you took Bardic Ritualist. Hybrid Swordmages (unlike non-hybrids) are not forced to take Arcana, so you can use your 3+1 class skills on other stuff and get Arcana from Bardic Ritualist (and a 6th skill from Bardic Dilettante).

[MENTION=6684877]Inspiratorium[/MENTION], from post 63. You have Bludgeon Focus listed--I assume that's Weapon Focus: Hammers?

[MENTION=86189]DistractingFlare[/MENTION], from post 19. Several things: first, I don't see your free Improved Defenses, so be sure to add that in. You took Great Fortitude, but your Con is high enough that you qualify for Superior Fortitude, which is strictly better. Also strictly better (since you're a bard) is Bard of All Trades over Jack of All Trades. Finally, I don't see a way to generate your stats without spending 24 points (9-14-10-16-10-16 is 1+5+0+9+0+9 points). Maybe drop your initial Con to 13? You still qualify for Superior Fortitude and keep the same Con modifier. You do lose 1 HP though.

Rogues Gallery is up here. As you finalize your characters, please post them to the RG. I prefer 1 post per player in the RG; any discussion should occur here or in the forthcoming OOC thread.

Also, I did a few character sketches for DF's slaying stone campaign, if the rest of you like, I could try to do so for this one as well.

If you have the time I would be very pleased to have a sketch. I'll get a proper description up with my post in the RG sometime tomorrow, but feel free to take artistic license. I might like your pic better than my description.
 

[MENTION=17633]tiornys[/MENTION] yeah that's right, my bad there.

[MENTION=86189]DistractingFlare[/MENTION] I'm just trying to work out whether Lucan would have done something particularly bad to imprint himself in Deacon's memory. Thoughts?

@drothgery , from post 32..
Yeah, that's the last version of Gwenn...

... and I've copied it over to the RG thread. Background might get tweaked, and if/when the latest rules updates with Versatile Expertise hit the character builder, I'll change her character builder sheet to match what she really has.
 

Alright, Lucan's been updated in my original post and in the RG. Hope it all checks out!

@Inspiratorium Lucan isn't the malicious sort - just a man who does what he has to do. And he's strictly a professional...until he gets to drinking. Probably nothing particularly bad, and Deacon's just forgotten him. Of course, Lucan thinks he's the Moriarty to Deacon's Sherlock.

I'm almost certainly going to go with an alternate character- especially since we have a full bard, and probably enough leaders. Still comparing character designs, but down to two.

A. full (shielding) swordmage, probably eladrin or genasi; this concept is still much in flux. Considering MC feylock (for teleporting), or thunder/lightning focus, or cold focus (to complement WD's permafrost druid).

B. Goliath hybrid ranger/warden, MC Monk. Durable melee striker. While we already have some strikers, I'm guessing that giants take a lot of killing.

I posted in the RG, but I still searching for my Eberron book to get the gp cost of a paragon level Syberis Shard of the Mage.

Can anyone help? I need the information to finish my equipment.
