Thanx for updating guys. And yeah, Tor L Tha, your HPs are fixed at half-hit die rounded up (for rogue's that's 4 HP). I figure that since whats-him-name who started this game way back when gave you guys maximum HP for all four levels, taking average at this point is all you really need.
Bobitron... I am willing to exchange Animal Companion for a bonus feat and +1 skill point from now on (not retroactive for your previous 3 levels).Thus you'll get 7 + INT mod for skill points for each level from now on. I figure the feat counteracts the initial gain of the companion, and the +1 skill point counteracts the raise in the companion's abilities over time. BTW - don't forget that Luthal gets his +1 to an ability score for now becoming 4th level.
Also guys... so far playing with just the three of you has been working well. If you are all happy with it, I'll stick with it. But if any of you feel like something is missing by not having a 4th player, please speak up so we can discuss it. Thanx!
