(OOC) D&D 3.5 - Paridon: The Dark Metropolis (Ravenloft)

[InVinoVeritas]

It'll need to be posted here one way or the other, so I recommend converting it to text then cutting and pasting.

I posted the text over at the RG thread - only problem might be that I still don't know how to layout the tables to make reading less painful. I'll fix the layout as soon as I can.

Apart from that, I made Calahan extremely unbalanced, sacrificing all my money for a Lesser Bracer of Archery - if that's okay. Apart from that, he really has nothing to offer, apart from being a freak. (Think of him as a younger, extremely pissed version of Dan Haggerty. )

The format's okay, but you might want to add carriage returns to clean up the description.

A few things pop up: First, we aren't using Unearthed Arcana, so you'll have to remove those pieces. Second, you might want to tie your background more tightly with Paridon. You will be a member of Paridon's constabulary; you need to seem at least trustworthy enough to the city to be granted police powers. Finally, I'm using a "Ravenloft Lite" version of the languages; no need for Luktar or Balok, and Paridonese is called "Common" here.

I'll work on getting you into the story with the next post.

Welcome, Ivid.

With respect to the format: I use Courier New in Word, since that makes it easy to see whether I've got everything to line up. (Use spaces, instead of tabs, too.)

If you want to put Calahan's stats, etc in a code box, just use the

{code}put your text here{/code}

combination, with square brackets instead of curly ones.

That'll give you this:

I just put in loads of lines to demonstrate that it will automatically insert a scroll bar.

Cheers.

Ivid:

I've reviewed the character a second time, and I've decided the Unearthed Arcana stuff will be okay. You can keep it.

I'd still like to see a background that is more closely tied to the city of Paridon (exterminator, perhaps?) that would help explain why you'd be able to get a job with the constabulary. If you could please add that, I'll introduce Calahan to the game.

Thanks for getting the character together!

Hi again,

Sorry for not being available! I am still layouting that adventure submission, and that literally kills my free time - if you are okay with it, I'll post a more detailed backstory tomorrow!

Thank you for letting me keep that feat! It might come in very handy for an urban policeman!

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Ivid, once you're ready, I'll get you introduced to the group.

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

Sorry for the delay. Will apply all the changes tomorrow... Busy times...

 

[InVinoVeritas]

That's fine. I figured that since you were busy, it was better to make sure your deadlines were met, first.

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

Very nice! Yet, I have no idea where the party is right now. Is there any *dynamic* method to bring Calahan into the game. As to his backstory, I can see him as a constable, working at the Paridon Police. Guess he would do just anything for a good paying and a warm bed.
