Diplomacy would be very useful.

Also, Disguise. Intimidate, Sense Motive, Bluff...

Lol Placing the ranks in skills is alot harder than normal. I need like......... a crapload more skill points This will take some thinking to get it all balanced out right. No more just putting max'd ranks in everything.

 

[OnlytheStrong]

Any limits to what Feats I can select? I finally figured my skills out I think.

 

[Dire Lemming]

What do you mean, limits? If it's within the rules in the CRB you can have it. If it's not, ask me.

 

[OnlytheStrong]

More of the books available, which also effects equipment. lol. I will just pick out the feats I would like to have and detail them for you. If that is okay. Odds are, they won't even be combat skills.

I also assume we are starting with the average starting gold for our level (9,000). Magic weapons/armor available? I'm not quite sure how much magic is in this world

p.s. Sorry for so many questions.

 

[Dire Lemming]

No problem. Standard gold, don't spend more than one third of your wealth on a single item. Try not to go too overboard on magic items. If you're unsure, ask. If it's not in the CRB, ask.

I'll pop here and give an alternative idea for magic weapons. The basic +X for weapons and armor are not considered magical. They are just extreme masterwork. This does not affect the cost, and the affect of construction is minimal. The thing is they are made by regular blacksmiths but the DC and material costs are increased and they must pay the XP cost too. So the only real change is that they do not show in Detect Magic. The quality of such gear is also so great that it does not stack with spells like magic weapon etc.

 

[OnlytheStrong]

I chose all feats from the PHB, so I figure they are okay. (Nimble Fingers, Persuasive, and Great Fortitude).

My magic items that I am looking at include an Amulet of Natural Armor +1 (2,000gp), Hat of Disguise (1,800), Hewards Handy Haversack (2,000), Cloak of Resistance +1 (1,000). I may get rid of the hat though.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Hm, while I personally love Heward's Handy Haversack, I'm not entirely sure it would fit into the setting that well. The amulet and cloak work a bit better. What do you think Blackrat?

The Feats are good.

 

[Blackrat]

Well I too think that the haversack might be a bit of the top but not completely out of the question. The thing is, most of the priests have the necessary spells to create those other items so they are good but they should probably cost more than the norm. The haversack is "low-magic" enough to be a prized heirloom but in comparison I would wipe the real bags of holding from item lists completely.
