Endur's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft OOC

[Endur]

The one iffy thing I wanted to clear was having drunk from the Dragonblood Pool as part of my equipment. (details are in my char sheet)

As a level 5 character, that is a bit iffy. Let's say no Dragonblood pool (or other arcane locations).

YEA NO HORSY sounds good that gives me more money to play with. I am currently cramming for several test for this friday. But after school ill try to finish my char 100%. How is he looking those far? Please point out errors because after writing it i think im right and you know how it goes. Glad to be apart of this game

 

[Endur]

If you have already selected your optional book (as Pyrex selected Complete Mage and Dirk selected Complete Warrior), please mention you selection of the book somewhere on your character sheet

Fair enough, and not too unexpected. I'll swap it out for something else then.

QUESTIONS FOR DM

What is our starting xp?

I was wondering if i could have a hamster as a familiar? (Boo from Baulders Gate to be exact) and if so what bonus would he offer? (I would prefer the bonus toads get of +3 to masters life but thats just me)

Do we need to pick a regional home (FR i would assume) and if so would we get the benefits of out home region?

 

[Endur]

>What is our starting xp? Doesn't matter. You are level 5.

>I was wondering if i could have a hamster as a familiar? (Boo from Baulders Gate to be exact) and if so what bonus would he offer? Boo is yours. Bonus is unknown to your character.

>Do we need to pick a regional home (FR i would assume) and if so would we get the benefits of out home region? Not in FR, no home region, no benefits.

Yeah, Skorl isn't the horse riding type...although, he may eat someone's horse if he gets hungry enough.

I had a half-orc barbarian once that was loosely based on Ghengis Khan. He rode horses.

Now that's a pretty cool concept! Very nice. I envision Skorl coming from the mountains, though...no place for a horse.

Endur, I posted Skorl (half-orc barbarian1/fighter4) to the Rogue's Gallery. I still have some money to spend, and I am contemplating changing a couple of feats, still.

Always hard to pick feats for a fourth level fighter. You get a decent number of feats, but not as many as you would like. I always have problems picking between Weapon Specialization and Great Cleave. On the one hand, Weapon Specialization = more damage. On the other hand, you are just low enough in level that Great Cleave could be very useful against waves of mooks.

Absolutely. And with the edition of books like Complete Warrior and such, you really start to get so many feats available that it makes it difficult to choose. I still need to get PHBII, as I hear there are many great Fighter feats in that one.
