Call to the Four Lands

[Leif]

Aww, does this mean that Hennett is the only Druid/Ranger?? Darn!!!

I am reminded of the comedian I saw on the Comedy Channel not too awfully long ago wh did a bit about going to a car dealership and insisting that the salesman ONLY call him "El Conquistador!"

Dwarves

dwarves would not under almost any circumstance allow humans access to their mining regions

Spell forbiddance created especialy to hold dwarves at bay and to prevent their (or any other) magic to pass through. They'd be forced to use outside force. Minimum would be one who can hold his own on the other side of the barrier until said barrier could be brought down.

etc...so this would have to be a very very rare occurence and the fact that a human was able to penetrate that far into the dwarven homeland and be allowed to leave alive even more so.....

So, if they have to rely on outside force, who's better then bard to countersong harpies, who is also known to be able fighter, has no strong affiliations to human organisations or fixed home...and that can be 'bought' to stay silent about the spell variation that many human organisation would literally kill for.

I dislike chain shirt as almost medium armor, but if it is all I can get then I'll take it...I'd still prefer studded leather even if it means acquiring it some other way with only belt of dwarven kind being a reward.


I don't think Belt of dwarven kind would be made just for anybody. It is much easier to compensate with gems or such then to create item that allows wearer to influence dwarves more easily. Or simply to kill the one instead of thanks (but I don't think this is dwarven way)...so I'd propose another tack. Somehow (we need to work out details) THIS human is trusted by dwarves. (Maybe I can take level or two or three from Stonebonded from Races of Stone? )

Hey i dont to be a hard ass about this..but while i am willing to give a little what your proposing overall does not fit into the racial relations as they exist in the four lands...which is one of the reasons you do have mines etc that have been abaondoned or closed off to dwarves thus the reason the dwarves are sending two of their own out to look for new sources of metal etc.

I will go to the extent that their was some interaction and that your aid was necessay but to say the dwarves recurite you etc is just not plausiable...

Let me drink a cup of coffee and think this out

Enjoy

Enjoy your cofee then, we'll hammer it out eventualy.

I can always take dwarven language instead of using item and take another magic item...in history I inluded initialy part in which Randal had contact with dwarves early because his parents traveled far and wide (and THEY might be known enough to dwarves, without Randal even realizing it)

I suppose he'd make a pretty good used car salesman with a 20 charisma too.

Just put him in a LOUD plaid blazer and give him a Power Comb-Over!

Suggestio nto Scotley

You might replace one of Performance skills with Perform(Dancing) so you can use Battledancer feat...also, Randal doesn't have dancing and usually doesn't sing being more of a historian then entertainer...

Okay dwarves and such......i am going to allow that backstory but that is about the extent...dwarves would not under almost any circumstance allow humans access to their mining regions etc...so this would have to be a very very rare occurence and the fact that a human was able to penetrate that far into the dwarven homeland and be allowed to leave alive even more so.....

FYI: after the creation of the belt, the dwarves would consider the debit setteled and owe nothing more to the human........

On the other hand, Pandak's express mission is to build more trusting relations between Dwarves and humans. This sounds like a major feather in his diplomatic cap!

Remember also that Pandak is that rare Dwarf who recognizes that for any progress in relations to be made both sides have to give a little. While most Dwarves would see it as perfectly logical to refuse humans all access to their lands in response to the humans barring them from sources of precious metal, some recognize that allowing limited access - especially if it helps the Dwarves open up a new source of quality material - could be an early step in renewing relations.

Backstory

A rare dwarf huh............okay i give........but not on the metals ............no matter how helpful i just cant envision them given up mitrhil or adamitate.

Adamantine

So, I cannot have non-magic adamantine light armor? There is no way to obtain it from dwarves and cannot be bought or found in human lands
