[OOC] Dungeon Adv. Path: Life's Bazaar

[Douane]

No problem!

Actually I've got a bit of time on my hands.

We've reached the "lull before the storm"(?!) over here. (6th of June 1944, Omaha Beach, 5.00 AM)

Concerning the Hill Dwarf, I've got to admit that I would like to stay Hobgoblin, if possible. I just can't relate to Dwarves (or Elves, Halflings and Gnomes for that matter).

[Ok, I admit it: I've been called a pathological dwarf-hater numerous times. ]

Regarding geography: I had somehow imagined the Broken Lands would be north of the Chasm (in which I had based the Kozats), the Icy Seas north, north-east and north-west of the these wastes. Obviously I got things wrong. Can you help me out?

For clarification: The ranger was supposed to be an arctic ranger, living on the presumely uninhabited fringes of the Icy Seas.

[The original idea for this I got when I opened the BOHM to look up the ranger and first word I read was arctic, etc. So I thought, what a cool concept for a ranger. Then I saw the heading "Druid Groves" )

Douane — I'm fine with the hobgoblin, if you are, so let's work with it. As for your geography, you're golden. Absolutely right. So, I think my confusion with the background is:

(1) is he from the Chasm, then the story happens, and then he went north through the Broken Lands up towards the Ice Seas?

or

(2) was he from a settlement in the Broken Lands? It's possible.

As for the arctic bit, that's fine, I like that sort of thing (the whole swamp dwarf thing came out of picturing a dwarf on a raft heading down a river in a filthy, swampy environment — someone in the house rules forum suggested a dwarf on a skiff with a lantern hanging off the back, poling his way through fog). So, let's run with it.

I'm off to study for now, so...

Best,
tKL

I think I understand now. (Finally he does! )

The story he's telling is supposed to be his own, so he would come from the chasm, since the Broken Lands are already, well, broken , I presume.

when I get my taxes back, I'll be picking up some version of CC2 for maps and whatnot, but I can probably whip up something before then

Autorealm is comparable to CC2, and free. I've used both, and each has their own advantages. Autorealm will do pretty much anything CC2 will though, if money is a big issue.

Can I take a feat that lets all knowledge skills be class skills? I think there is one in FRCS.

 

[GWolf]

Never Mind, Not quite Doing that excact concept anymore. I am now doign a character based off of Gross Pointe Blank.

I am the biggest John Cusack Fan Ever.

How Much $$, Cash, Dough, Gold, Mo-Lah, Money?

 

[Old Fezziwig]

Douane — I'm glad we could work that out. Thanks for dealing with my questions.

Dog Faced God — I have Autorealm and I'm not 100% happy with it, but I'll play around with it tonight and see what I think about it now (it's been months since I've touched it).

GWolf — Use the PHB starting gold for a 1st level character. As for Cusack, I'm a wicked Cusack fan, too. "I don't want to get into a semantic argument, I just want the protein." Or something like that.

Best,
tKL
