hi folks,
I've got an old 2nd edition dwarven fighter/Cleric I want to transfer over (in spirit) to 3e.
A straight fighter/cleric seems pretty gimped. I've also looked at Pious Templar and doing something with a crusader/cleric and some simple variant of Ruby Knight Inquisitor.
Things that need to be kept:
Heavy armor, lots of skill in smithing, decent caster but not great (even in 2nd edition his cleric level trailed his fighter level for wacky in-game reasons, ok if he starts out as non-caster).
He is LN with a slight tilt toward good.
Has a huge STR and CON, moderate WIS, okay DEX and int, bad CHR. (In 2nd ed it was STR 18/41, INT 12, WIS 17, DEX 16, CON19, CHR 8 in a very high-stats game)
Things I'd like to keep:
Wields an intelligent bastard sword with a war hammer as backup.
Worships a Human god of war, and loves battle but actively avoids war.
Not on great terms with Dwarven society but tries to "out Dwarf" them (Think Worf in ST:TNG)
Has an overwhelming sense of duty to those he "owes" it to.
Is very ill-humored and extremely disciplined in nearly everything.
Has a hard time relating to people in anything other than a "work" relationship. (He's working on that, spends 3 hours in a bar once a week and 3 hours with one set of good friends once a week, all nicely scheduled of course)
Can craft magical arms and armor.
Values skill in arms over magic and flashy stuff.
I'd love proposed builds or just thoughts on where to go in 3e...
Thanks,
