[OOC] Baptism by Fire_FULL

[FitzTheRuke]

I've been reading alot of your games, mostly in awe. So I hope not to disappoint.

Thanks. That means a lot to me.

I wanted star druid, we can make a coven

I'll play wizards librarian (arvane healer) so we have all the bases covered.

I've got a question: If I go Moon Druid, do you mind if I level-up a CR 1/8 Mountain Goat to CR 1 so I can turn into a Mountain Goat, instead of a Bear (like every Moon Druid) without wasting the CR value? I'll post the difference between the two CR-versions for your approval.

I was going to try moon Druid but I can go circle instead

I did not notice that others were planning Druids! Woops! Sorry.

No worries. My original idea was a dwarven or elf who was shapeshited by the spell plague and had no control over shifting until the Archmage taught him to control it.

@Neurotic if you are actually going Druid, I may go with a rogue unless you guys think 3 druids will be fun. Overlapping entangle with flaming sphere while the moon Druid tanks.

My idea for a rogue is an orphan that is an apprentice to the mage…but he’s absolutely terrible with magic and doesn’t know how to cast any spells

Please post the difference thanks

I won't say no if you had the stats of a bear and just looked like a giant mountain goat. but the attacks might +differ

I'm not keen on the CR1 Goat having to be Large size, but I made it large to excuse why it's tougher than a regular mountain goat. If it makes no difference to you, I'd leave it at "large-end of Medium".

It just fights better! Also, just my 2cents, I know it’s just semantics but I think your multi attack should be a ram and a hoof attack, even if they do the same damage.
