[OOC] Against the Slavers A1-A4, 3.0 rules

[Halivar]

Rhm, I'm getting confused. 3.0 Elves have Longsword proficiency too.

I may have been misunderstanding something all along. I know all 3.0 MM elves have longsword prof's, but I was unaware PHB races had racial weapon proficiencies at all (but there it is, page 16 of the PHB under Elves).

PS: You guys are going to find out real quick that I'm a writer, and I'm a math nerd, but I'm no lawyer. It is my solemn vow not to cheat you, so let me know when I goof on the rules.

PPS: Also, this game has started with more rules faux pas on my part than any other game I've run. I'm not normally like this. Promise! Don't get scared!

PPPS: Bob is naked right now, as is Thels (except for a lovely headband). Thels's character also needs a background and a name (he must be trying to create the greatest wizard name EVAR).

I hadn't gone over Orbril's spell list yet. Level 3 bards and level 2 druids cast level 1 spells max. Tonguez, make sure to consult the appropriate spells/day tables in the PHB.

For a level 3 bard, it's 3/1 spells per day, with 6/3 spells known. Since your charisma is 16, you get bonus spells for level 1, 2 and 3. But you cannot cast level 3 spells yet, so you don't get this benefit until you take another level of bard. Since you're level 2 druid, you get 4/2 spells per day, with bonus spells for level 1 and 2 spells for having a wisdom score of 15.

Yep sorry I got bonus spell crazy - its a habit of listing All 'Spells known' so I don't have to refer back when I level up. Still restricted by 'spells per day' limit however

 

[Halivar]

We're almost there, kiddos!

Tonguez - You have flaming sphere grayed, why is that? Also remember that you cannot cast pyrotechnics or major image. Your bardic spells known should be (6/3), not (6/3/1/1).

Bob - I still need to know what the Captaining feat is before I can let you take it.

Thels - Still need background, name and sundries.

Once those three issues are taken care of, I'm ready to start.

 

[Bob Aberton]

Oops, sorry 'bout that.

Captaining (General)
You can effectively lead your crew in their day-to-day activities.
Prerequisites: Sailing skill (8 ranks)
Benefit: When you have the Captaining feat, any crew under your comand gains a +2 circumstance bonus to all skill checks that are needed to run the ship (Navigation, Pilot, & Sailor).

I just looked it over and realized that if by "sailing skill" it means Profession: Sailor, my character only has half the necessary ranks.

OTOH, if you consider Profession: Pilot and Profession: Navigator as subsets of the Sailing skill, then "Captain" Jack does have enough total ranks.

So shall I change it for something else or what?

So shall I change it for something else or what?

Nah, it's fine. Flav-o-rific besides.

 

[Halivar]

Thels, ya still with us? Let me know if you can't join in. As is, you just need a 3.0 spell list, background, name and miscellaneous adventuring gear. Then we can start the game up.

 

[Bob Aberton]

BUMP.

As a last resort if Thels doesn't show, I could play his character as well as mine, if you want?

 

[Halivar]

Actually, I'm going to go ahead and recruit an alternate.

Thels, if you're out there, you got dibs.

Halivar, Just to let you know, I'm going to be unavailible for a couple of days. Will be back on Saturday evening (going to a course in San Diego whoohoo), and if time if anything goes on I'll try to check tomorrow before I leave...
Otherwise play me as the revenge seeking Monk with a sneaky past for a couple of days.

 

[Halivar]

*nod* Gotcha. If I can find a sixth player in that time...
