Dawnforge Campaign - The True Kings - Calling my Active Players!

Sir Aravir is of the Royal House of Deluin, but that has never stopped him from fighting to protect the Kingsmarch. While he doesn't have the skills to perform behind the lines actions. He is mounted and may have helped in supply line ambushes and hit and run raids.

He may have met some of the others in such a capacity.

If he didn't spend all his time on the lines, Aravir may have met Ssiran as Raynard in a different capacity, as the two would walk among similar circles of Trueborn while not out to battle.

Haedyn has been fighting at the front as well, but probably not in most of those ways...though he has some covert abilities and can track somewhat. So ambushing supply lines, hit and run attacks, etc. would be within his ability.

I imagine that the other stuff would be also. Haedyn just wouldn't stoop to doing it.

I don't know how long the border is, but it could be possible for them to know each other by sight. What do you think? Hiitar is not the type to despise or hold in contempt those more noble than himself. Indeed, he fled to the Kingsmarch because it was ruled by men more noble than himself. So long as they don't get all rightious on him, Hiitar would have willingly fought alongside such people. Not sure how Haedyn would view Hiitar though.

thotd
 

HP bonus is 8 because Hiitar's con went up at L3. So +1/+1/+2/+2/+2.

Hiitar has maxed Dex, but my character-fu ki is all used up.

I read Full Metal Alchemist sitting outside a cafe in Shibuya on a hot June afternoon. I had quit my job and had time on my hands. I go through a few manga that month.

Hiitar doesn't either really. No Hide, Mv Silently or Survival. The irritations of the class skill lists. So he obviously wasn't the scout/point person. But his dex would probably be enough to allow him to manage.

Nope, Con bonus is retroactive. You get +2 to HP at all levels ;)

Don't worry--here's what to do: Somewhere on the character sheet write "Path of the Swift 1st Circle". Then raise your Dex by one more. Then pick Climb, Intimidate, Jump, Perform, or Swim and it can use Dex now. Yay, you're done!

Not sure if Armstrong does this in the manga too since I've only seen the anime, but in the show, he often flexes his muscles and says ridiculous things like "How can anyone with muscles like these possibly be a traitor to the state"

Yeah. Diplomacy based on Strength makes no sense (except maybe for Armstrong from Full Metal Alchemist), but I find it an awesome way to allow Intimidate based on Strength.
Well it's probably because his strength is legendary, that people focus on that as a powerful reason to be friendly. ;)

So when two diplomats go to the table to discuss where to place the borderline between two kingdoms in disputed territory, the 24 Charisma character who can sway masses with his mere words and has a legendarily powerful personality loses out to the Int 4 Charisma 4 Ogre with 40 Strength and Path of the Mighty? :p
 


OK, Path added. I somehow lost his Fighter skills in the re-write, so added those as well. HP bonus changed. Its funny what rules can remain under the radar. I don't tend to add stat increases to con much, obviously.

Would you argue with this guy?
