Message: <blockquote data-quote="Edena_of_Neith" data-source="post: 2785737" data-attributes="member: 2020">Thanks, Michael.  When you reposted the characters in DMG2 Format, did you correct the mistakes?  Could you repost the characters in the DMG2 Format, with the mistakes corrected?  Please?  A personal request from Yours Truly.  -    Claire starts with 3 extra languages, using the 6 skill points.  She has Draconic, Sylvan, and Gnomish.  If Narrin is 6 skill points short, give him 3 ranks in Search.  Narrin is 25, 6 feet 5, weighs 250 pounds, is obviously very muscular, has long black hair, and grey eyes.  He wears his thick black beard long, with a stylized mustache.  His brows are bushy.  Claire has the large, almond shaped eyes of the high elves, but with only a little slant.  Her chin is narrower than a human's, but not dramatically so.  Her face is pleasant and friendly, with a soft nose and cherubic ears (they are pointed, but do not stick up to the top of her head!  They are narrower than a human's ears, and slightly longer.  Claire might be the younger version of the elf on page 220 of the DMG.  Might be.  In elven terms, she's around the human equivalent of 18.  -  Ok ...  Narrin is walking through the woods towards the clearing.  Claire casts her Shocking Grasp spell, and holds it.  In an opposed skill check of Listen versus Hide, Narrin doesn't have Listen and Claire doesn't have Hide, so it falls back on their relevant stats.  Narrin rolls a 19, plus no bonus for his Wisdom (Wisdom 11.)  Claire rolls an 8, modified to an 11 for her Dexterity (Dexterity 17.)  Narrin wins the opposed skill check.  Realizing that the young woman down there is casting a spell, and that it might well be hostile, Narrin draws his bow and nocks an arrow to it, before continuing.  Thus, when Narrin enters the clearing (which is 50 feet across) he is ready for combat.  Narrin then looks around for the hiding girl.  Opposed skill checks again:  Spot versus Hide.  Narrin rolls high again, a 15.  No modifiers.  Claire rolls low again, a 10, modified to a 13.  Narrin spots Claire hiding behind a tree.  Narrin decides, for good or for bad, that this young woman should be dealt with forcibly.  Narrin calls for the girl to come out.  Running will do no good, for his bow is trained on her, says he.  There is nowhere to run anyways, says he.  If the girl will not come out, Narrin says, he will be required to drag her out.  Claire reacts hostilely to this statements, and comes out.  The distance between the two closes to 40 feet.  Claire in no uncertain terms warns the stranger to back off, to leave her be.  She is seeking a healer, and will not be delayed.  Narrin is irritated mightily by this attitude.  He always thought elves were stuck up, and now this little girl is telling him off.  He informs her he will take her back to his home, by force as a prisoner if need be, or she can come willingly.  Then, says he, he will discuss the healer.  Claire regards Narrin coldly, and informs him that he will do no such thing.  Narrin gestures to his huge, readied bow, arrow nocked, and smirks at the girl.  He then asks her politely what a mage, alone and without help, is going to do against him - a fighter - in toe to toe combat?  Claire quietly informs him that he will die.  Pure and simple.  Narrin has had enough of this backtack from this little girl.  He fires a warning shot over her head, then reloads.  Claire, face cold and set, advances on him, raising her hands.  She informs him that he had his chance, but now his only choice is to surrender, or die.  Narrin, aims his bow directly at Claire.  An arrow will change her outlook, says he.  Thinking about it, he figures he can get healing later for the prisoner he intends to make of her.  After her behavior, he will enjoy breaking her elvish attitude with short rations and little water, confined out in the cold night with the insects and the rodents, and little sympathy and much scorn from him.  Narrin takes aim with his bow, and ...  The combat begins.  (Heading for bed.  Be back later!)</blockquote>
