can we start without the DM? ;) At work doing nothing but picking my nose. Have 10 more hours before I get to go home..need something ,besides work, to do.
I hear you on that... My work involves do little to nothing allot of the time...

If your really that bored you can give my character a look over as I'm sure theirs at least one mistake... ;)


I could use a better surname too. :(
 




I've posted what I've got of my character so far in Rogue's Gallery. He's still a bit sketchy in places (I need to add a background, think of a good first name for him, finish equipping him, and make his cohort if I get the OK from Snipehunt), but it should give you a good idea of what I'm thinking.

Better surname? You wanting to get rid of Whiteshield?
Sorry I didn't see your reply sooner... (Now I wonder if I got an email for it.)

I was thinking about it as my guys not carrying a shield... But I just don’t know... Do you like it?

Jarval, I wouldn't stress the lack of background my characters’ is still slightly fuzzy and completely unwritten. My day of "work" has been a complete wash as we've been busy. :mad:
 

Hi, sorry I've been out - for some reason I couldn't post, or even get to the boards, all weekend. Grrrrr.

Leadership/Cohorts are fine - set up with same ability point buy, and starting gold for appropriate level (6th, probably, IIRC). Cohorts, animal companions, etc. will go with you to Ravenloft, but hirelings, other followers, henchman, non-Paladin mounts, etc. not - unless there's some reason it's needed. In the past, I've asked that the cohort be added as another character to your PC post, right after the PC's goods, but if you'd like to post a new sheet, that's fine too.

It looks like everybody's PC is up to the, er, unique challenges of Ravenloft.

This adventure will be a variation of a Ravenloft adventure I'm running for a couple other groups, and ran for my in-person group - if that doesn't bother anyone. The focus of the prior version was on identifying the BBEG; here, you should know pretty early on who that is, but finding a way to stop the BBEG will be the mystery. Bwa, ha, ha ha. I tell you this so that we don't have a TPK in chapter 3 (or whatever) when you find the baddie, but probably can't stop or kill it. Should be fun.

If you're bothered that it sounds like a "second hand" adventure, I can use another I've been working on, but it won't be a mire (if that was the hook that got you here) and I can't guarantee it's balanced right. Unless I hear otherwise, though, I'm going to start a game thread as soon as cohorts are created.

Key eerie music and dim lights . . .

COuple things - This is the 3.5 PRC? Please note class level in ftr and knight.

IIRC, you get cha bonus to will saves - if so, please add.

Ride is a class skill, total bonus +10, not +6 for 8 ranks

Falchion - holy, not flaming (just clear it up), crit is x2, not x3 (unless I'm missing something)

Does your character need a horse? It won't be all that useful in the adventure I'm planning, although it will have a few moments. If not, drop the horse, and please either throw the money into other equipment, or keep it as spare change - you'll find stuff to spend it on.

also - FWIW, I like the whiteshield!

Looks good so far, need the equipment fleshed out, and background - and a first name. Reverse of Galaxyquest - has a last name, no first name!
