5E Hydellor OOC

[KahlessNestor]

I was going to say Arideen. His brother and sister both work for the palace, one friendly, the other not so much. And another brother who decided to take up farming for 'some reason' he won't talk about. In fact, none of them will explain anything to Oryn.

That sounds fine. The Imperial Palace is purely administrative right now, as there is no emperor.

I'm back again. sorry for disappearing

 

[gargoyleking]

Okay, so I take it, the Imperial family has been dead for over fifty years now? I can adjust for that. I'd read about the assassination, just assumed he'd had an heir.

 

[KahlessNestor]

No heir. There are probably some ancillary members of the Imperial family, but the emperor has to be Paladine (God), and when the emperor was killed, so was Paladine. The Queen (his assassin) tried to set herself and the Helveki line on the throne, and that triggered the civil war that broke up the empire. Arideen (what is left of the empire in the mountains) is now ruled by a regency council consisting of the High Bishop, the dwarven kingdom (under the mountains), the elven king (from Irine), the Marshal General (military) and a representative of the nobility.

 

[gargoyleking]

Okay, in that case, I think they'll have split up. His eldest sister will stay at the Academy as his 'friend', His brother is a ridiculously successful entertainer in the capital city who for some reason holds a massive grudge against Owyn. (Rival) His other brother works on the palace grounds as a gardener. (Contact.)

Owyn Karnigran Human(Variant) Figher 4 4 NG AC HP Speed ft Str 18 (4) Dex 16 (3) Con 15 (2) Wis 14 (2) Int 6 (-2) Cha 16 (3)

This is what I have so far.

 

[KahlessNestor]

Looks good so far.

 

[gargoyleking]

Sheet's updated with basic equipment. I'd like to exchange the chainmail for splint if it's possible. Same price but he isn't affected by the dex penalty.

Otherwise, he should be good to go.

Welcome back!

Owyn Karnigran Human(Variant) Figher 4 4 NG AC HP Speed ft Str 18 (4) Dex 16 (3) Con 15 (2) Wis 14 (2) Int 6 (-2) Cha 16 (3)

This is what I have so far.

You will get another +2 from hitting 4th level (assuming a single class). What type of Fighter? Great Str, Good Dex, Con, Wis and Cha. Heck! You can pull off just about anything with those stats! Not too bright, but you could even swap Int and Wiz or Cha if you wanted to go Eldritch Knight. So yeah, really curious which way you are going with the subclass.

All of the answers to those questions are on the sheet. At lv. 4, he took Sentinel rather than an ASI. As for the subclass, he went Battle Master. He picked up Goading Attack, Precision Attack and Rally

Not sure what you mean. Splint is much more expensive and raises your AC by 1 over chain. That isn't an even swap. And nothing about a dex penalty on either.

 

[gargoyleking]

Bleh, Scale, sorry.

 

[KahlessNestor]

Okay. That should be a fine switch, though I am not sure why. Your AC will still be the same, and still have DA on Stealth. Are you trying to save the 25 gp difference?

 

[gargoyleking]

Scale is 1 better than chain. It's just heavier and causes DA on stealth checks to the wearer.

 

[gargoyleking]

Oh wait. I see the problem! I 'WAS' thinking Chain shirt while actually reading chain mail. I guess this is my first true fighter in this edition and so stuck on the idea that chainmail is Medium armor and chain shirts are light. Yeah, Owyn is a medium armor specialist and as such is actually better off in Scale than chain mail. (Max DeX increases to 3 with the feat.)

 

[KahlessNestor]

Okay. Scale us fine then. And you can keep the gold difference too.

 

[gargoyleking]

Oooh

 

[Lord Twig]

I will be out of town and will not have access to the internet for about two weeks. I'll try to check back on this game as soon as I get back.

 

[KahlessNestor]

Have fun. Tis the season of vacation.

 

[gargoyleking]

I know they're in the middle of a tower atm. In the meantime, Owyn is ready to go.
