Off to War (always recruiting) OCC Year 2:

So... HM, I notice you always append an "L" to the end of 'idea'. It doesn't really bother me or anything, but now it almost seems like you 're daring us to say something about it, so I guess I took the bait. I'm sure it's just a little quirk, but I had a crazy thought that maybe you had some secret prize and you were just waiting for somebody to point it out and I might inherit a vast fortune, or a haunted castle or something! So... did I win?

If people won items for his spelling mistakes, then we would all be billionaires... Right HM?

Or 20th level.

I think the real rewards should be for keeping our inner Grammar Nazis locked up!

True that I would have so much molla for misspells that I would pay EnWorld to let me have all the forums I want.

You weren;t here about a year ago when I first started back at EnWorld Sugar_Silk, then I only typed with two fingers, and they being big I would hit wrong keys all the time. And I never proof read anything because I wanted to get it posted. Also I type pretty much how I talk which is to say very slangish, my ex-wife is from Hungary and when we first met she asked me want language I was speaking. LOL

Now I type with three fingers and a thumb and take to reading before I hit submit but, soory no prize but thanks for playing.

[MENTION=83115]Theroc[/MENTION] need to know if you want to go Duskblade for sure. As I have had a breakthrough in how to give you a little training in that class during your duet.

Been waiting on your DM weigh in on my reply to your initial mention. Here it is below.

I think that I'd need to re-key the Duskblade's spellcasting progression, or I'd um... not be casting many spells. Would you okay Aidan's casting being keyed to Charisma? Otherwise I doubt it would be very effective at all, unless we found artificial methods of jacking Aidan's intelligence up.

Also: Unless we find a method to allow Aidan to wear armor without losing his Monk-based abilities, I'd need to swap something out for those as well. I can do that with your system already though. The re-keying for the spellcasting and Attunement are the most important things that I see causing an issue with Aidan matching the class.

That aside, I could definitely see it working(wouldn't work the abjurant Champion bit I had in mind originally, but that's a side idea anyhow, and now I have access to the PHB2, so Duskblade is a possibility.)

In fact, I think it'd be rather hilarious to see Jareth's reaction when he starts manifesting nearly identical abilities with a similar weapon the next time they meet. I can imagine he'd either be angry, confused, or both.

Btw, Monk 4/Duskblade 1/DD 10 takes me to level 15. Were you planning to stop the campaign there, or was that just a basic build concept?

Note: With the feat that someone mentioned earlier (I think Ghostcat?), the armor isn't an issue much either, if you approve of that homebrew feat... then it'd only be the int key that is an issue.

 

[HolyMan]

Why is INT a key issue you will only be taking one lvl right? That is why I thought of having you "find" a teacher and then he would leave. Aidan does have an INT of at least 11 right?

And I ok'ed that feat for one of ghostcat's characters in another game of mine it is ok to take.

Well, the spellcasting would be nigh useless unless I picked spells that did not allow saves... and the Dragon Disciple adding to that wouldn't do much either, since it would add onto the Duskblade levels.

As for just a single level, I suppose I could take just one, but then I'll have 5 levels later to play with, and dunno what to do with them.

Maybe I'm just not understanding how it would work.
