PooleCartographer/Surveyor and climbing expertWeapon Proficiency- Rifle (starting)Endurance (1st level)Also Can shot, and Can run for a long time at a +4 bonus5)Annie Kathleen MahoneyFemale Physician (Surgeon)Skill Emphasis - Heal (1st level)Iron Will (1st level)Endurance (3rd level)She heals, has increased will saving throws,And can run a a +4 bonus6)Camille Claud BardierDex: 18 (+4) (includes +1 ability score increase at 4th level)Weapon Profficiency (Pistol)She wont miss a whole lot with her bonuses, and probably won't need to run.7) Father RuckerSpellcasting ( spells I get may not help with combat at all !!!!)Weapons Proficency pistolPonit Blank FeatThis character has only one means of protecting himself - thats shooting.The only spell that I have chosen that could possible change that is mind blast.But even with mindblast I have no more of an advantage thanJames R. PooleAnnie Kathleen MahoneyFráncisco “Paco” Andreás GueriniMartin Louis LeBlancAnd I will always be at a disadvantage when in comes to running, because all of these characters can either run faster or longer than I can.  So my only backup to shotting  might be spellcasting, and thats only if I had mind blast.Other spells like create gate or control weather clearly could benefit the party.Dallas</blockquote>
