Ohio Gameday Whisper Woodwind Characters

[Crothian]

Gildain has one of the biggest burdens of all dwarves, he’s named after and is the direct descendent of the most famous Dwarf in history. The original Gildain united the Dwarfs under the Axe of the Dwarvish Lords, found and rebuilt two of the dead clans, and eventually became a demi god. No one is sung about more, no one’s stories are as widely known. Gildain VI hid away in the wizard school, hoping to loose himself in knowledge. However, for his own improvement and against his better judgment, the teachers have asked he spend some time out with actually people. So, his journey begins.

The above are 11 pre generated characters for a game I'm going to run in a week. It's a one shot at the Ohio Gameday gathering. The module I'm running is the Whispering Woodwind by Creative Mountain Games. Fir the pre gens I decided to go with race class combos that are not as commonly seen around the gaming table. The brief histories refer back to my personally world, but info on that is really not needed as it doesn't effect the game at all. I just wanted to includea little extra detail and another layer of reality by placing this all in a world I know well.

So, if one has any questions, comments, sees rules gaffs, please post and ask. The backgrounds can all be expanded on if people feel they need it, a lot can still be done. Thanks all.

i would add in arcane spell failure chances for the gnomes in armor, and the total skill bonuses for the PCs who get racial bonuses to skills

Mardnab - arcane spell failure: 20% (chain shirt)

Feng - spell component pouch (or at least some wool and a brass key)

Dell - asf: 25% (breastplate); Spot and Listen +4; holy symbol

Seriphina - add: snake is Medium-seize (she won't be carrying it ); divine focus

Zook - HD 1d10+3; Special Attacks ?; asf: 40% (banded, shield)

Cade - Climb +4, Hide +7, Jump +4, Move Silently +5

Keth - SQ ?; bolts ?

Himo - isn't finished...

Gildain - AC 11 (i wouldn't add in the mage armor - it only lasts an hour), spell component pouch

Thanks, I knew there would be some goofs.

Gildain should also get +3 dmg (1.5 x STR mod) using his quaterstaff two-handed from his strength bonus. Unless his 14 Strength is an error.

Do any of these PC's have money or items of personal value (beyond their weapons/armor) in their possession? Overall, you did a very nice job with the characters Crothian!!

One suggestion -- you may wish to note which PC's have already been selected for game play this weekend.
