So that's Rhun, sd, and Strahd confirming so far. sd and Strahd each have more than one character, Strahd has chosen Gorash Greybeard. I'd really prefer that you choose either Shiyana, Raggs, or Elydd, please, sd.
And I also have a positive statement from Helfdan, Girion Valtar, that indicates he will be joining us as well.
...hmmmm...as much as I really like Raggs' character, I think I am more interested in being a caster (seems we need some too).
Shiyana would be interesting because we wouldn't/don't have a committed female character...and I do enjoy a mix of genders in a party...seems more "novel-esque" somehow...and if Rhun's in, she and Turthain had a pretty good rapport going...I think.
Though I am digging Ellydd's background and the whole "striving to be a woodsy-paladin-type guy"...though we would seem to be more than sufficient in the "fighters/front line guys" department...but he does have a pretty horsey...
Hmmm, yeah, we do seem to be quite 'caster-poor' at the moment, lacking both M-Us and clerics. If DM_wannabe opts in that would give us an illusionist in Theron Greywand. I'd really rather not NPC the party cleric again. Maybe we could have a high-casualty, blood-and-guts fighters' game?
I certainly have no problem with that, DeWar. Although, I will say that it occurred to me this morning that each PC could have maybe 1-2 henchmen to round out the party.That might unnecessarily complicate things, though. What do you guys think?
