Off to War (always recruiting) OCC Year 2:

Oh, and HM, I wanna reserve a spot in your Wheel of Time game, whenever you start it.

WoT is one of my favorite series of books, and I was on a board dedicated to WoT RP for awhile. Good stuff.

HM: I can't even remember if Mart was with us or not. I don't believe so, unless he showed up later, once I vanished. So, I suppose as far as Aidan knows, Martomum isn't there.

Excatly Martomum wasn't at Harkon the time Aidan was. You exited the forest, encountered the hydra (still getting flack about that from DW ), met up with Vance and was escorted to the villiage near Harkon, spoke to Vance and then Tira was exposed, you were introduced to Baron Vir and his Reygurian predjuces before going off to bed.

So really Aidan doesn't know much about what is going on at Harkon.

Haha, neither do I. I haven't read anything in the main thread since I came back. Figure I'll read it once people get Aidan up to speed.

Hey, HM. I forget what my exact plan was mechanically for Aidan's gradual change, but I was wondering if I could opt to trade class features for the features from the Half Dragon Template over time, getting the abilities that way rather then jumping through a bunch of hoops to meet prerequisites.

I'd run each particular swap by you, obviously, but I thought I'd check in advance, since I remember we'd discussed this a lot a while back.

Well Theroc, you could just look back in the old OOC thread.

HM, looking ahead a little, I cannot help noticing Jareth is rather close to level 4...

Now normally, he would get Armored Mage (medium) at 4th. But I traded the Medium Armor Proficiency away, so AM (Med) is useless to me. Are we going to let Jareth have a bonus feat in exchange, as he is dropping a class feature, or is he going to advance normally?
Also, the same thing will happen at level 7, when he would normally gain Armored Mage (Heavy Shield).

I'd just like to check, so I know how to plan some things.

Haven't heard from ML in a while... was she on vacation or something?

I don't know about this as Half Dragon adds a +3 lvl adjustment, we should look into the build again as you have a few lvls till you can even take your first level of Dragon Disciple (minium 6th lvl).

Yes very close indeed, and I saw you want to go whirlwind attack in the IC which is good I think Jareth really sat still during the battle when I thought he would be a move and use the distance/relfexes. So I'm guessing you were waiting to give it RP flavor now that he will be practicing it, very nice. You may trade out anything you wish, seems DuskBlade is but the base class and you are building something a little different, which is what I like to see.

I think lot of people will be leveling up soon and I will be bringing BaHM to a close. I posted XP and I think if we round thread this thread up, the XP and bonus XP for adventure completed will give you and FtF a level up and maybe Scratched_back and Sugar_Silk as well, time will tell.

ML has posted a thread explaining her slow down in posts here:

Yeah, he sat still because he was surrounded. If I tried to use any mobility, it would have come out with either tripping over allies, or getting surrounded by all the enemies. Assuming I’d be able to move at all… Especially since this battle was very defensive. Perhaps if he was on a flanking maneuver/attack, he could have used some mobile strikes. Something to think about for another day...

At this point, he’d actually take Spring Attack, trying to work on his mobility, trying to carry the momentum with his movement, while avoiding strikes. And that leads into Whirlwind Attack later on (probably level 6, since I don’t want to trade a use of Quick Cast at 5).

The idea with Jareth is, eventually, to be able to skirmish with small groups, rush into the horde of foes and spin the chain around to take a bunch down, or take on a leader in single combat. Spring Attack is for the first, Whirlwind is for the second and his Tumble + Channeling attack is for the third.
