[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 4442563, member: 19675"] The report: One guy we expected to show didn't (the guy I predict will play a Ranger), but he will eventually. In the meantime, we picked up an additional player (!) who was running a Half-Orc Barbarian. He'll only be able to show up occasionally, but how often is the question. The rest of the party was my Human Sorcerer1(/Fighter0), a Human Cleric of Boccob, the reptilian humanoid (kind still unknown) who fought with tooth and claw, a Halfling Ranger (who plans on being a mounted warrior eventually), and a Dwarf Cleric (War & Protection domains). We were fighting a bunch of goblins holed up in a real warren, and usually had to advance single file. With the reptile on point followed by the Barbarian and the Ranger, by the time my guy got to the encounter, the encounter was over. The other players were openly mocking my character- Adragon Von Basten. They never asked about the conundrum of a Sorcerer walking around in Scale mail with a Maul and Shield... until the final battle of the evening. Faced with a shapeshifting Goblin leader and his 2 cronies, the front line guys were having trouble just hitting. We had some nice buffs laid on the party, but I quickly figured out that even if I cast Master's Touch, I'd need to roll a 16 or better to hit. (the only roll I'd had above 14 was a 20 on a search roll- I wasn't confident.) Still, I advanced and started swinging...true enough, I didn't roll anything better than an 11, and the rest of the party wasn't doing much better. But the party managed to force our foes into a nice, straight line, and I just shifted one hex and let go. With 11 rolled on 2d6, the lightning breath took down 1 guard and damaged the other two severely. A round later, the next guard went down and we had the leader surrounded. The !#@%#$^# shapeshifted into a rat and went down a locked grate into the complex's sewers! Still, Adragon proved his worth tonight! Can't wait until next time! [/QUOTE]
