Insight's "In the Shadow of Giants" [OOC]

[Sparky]

Did we want to get the matching cloaks. I say brown, because Amos has no fashion sense and brown suits him just fine.

Also, please post the final version of your character asap. If you don't have any updates from the last time you posted the character, please say so.

I made some minor edits to Corrin yesterday (just adding some mundane equipment; other than that... languages aren't on the D&Di export sheet, but I changed his second language from Draconic to Giant).

Well, of the characters selected, we didn't end up with nearly as much neck item duplication as we might have. So I don't think that we need to travel down the "matched cloaks" path as much as we might have, as some of us have magical cloaks, some don't, etc.

Past that, we don't strike me as a terribly organized adventuring group. I doubt we have a sponsor or heirarchy, just a bunch of misfits rehashing the same arguements over and over again.

"Don't call me 'Mister'"
"Let's split up!"
"Let's not!"
etc, etc, etc.

EDIT ADD: Heh, well, we're not organized because we haven't spent any time getting that way OOC. What would have happened naturally over the years for the players and the PCs.

Hang on a sec folks. Now that the group is selected, this is a golden opportunity to tailor our items into a group set that really work well together, like one or two of us getting endless rations (I haven't combed your item lists so maybe we have that already?), I'd burn an item on the endless canteen (and so would Amos).

Thoughts? Or just go on with what we have?

I was thinking about marching order for the group and suggest the following:

1st line - Gregor, Saben
Middle - Corrin, Amos
Rear - Seeker, Brant

That way Corrin & Amos are in the middle (with the lowest AC), protected by our fighter-types and Brant is available should an ambush come from the rear.

Insight:

I've made a slight tweak to Seeker changing out Improved Initiative for Remembered Wizardry.

Oh, forgot to mention I have 500gp left over, please assume that should be residium, just didn't feel like clicking 500 times (stupid they don't have a select multiple of an item)

This is true, but it was also my impression a little from the personalities we have. Except for perhaps Saben, there's a strong leaning towards wanderlust, traveling, searching for something. Not so much a strong singular goal. It just seemed like we'd end up more like a family after spending enough time together. We might bicker between ourselves, but when it comes down to it, it's us against them.

The other possibility is group owned items. I was considering a floating lantern, but that would leave me tapped out. If someone wanted to split costs. . .

 

[renau1g]

My contribution will be spent on group rituals and components (I've got almost 1k invested so far)

They do. There's a 'Quantity' box right next to the Add button.

As far as generally useful camp-making/background adventuring stuff... Corrin's currently got a Hunter's Flint.

Ah... apparently I'm the dummy. Thanks Dave
