[QUOTE="CanadienneBacon, post: 6767742, member: 11146"] Some questions for you, [MENTION=33284]Yavathol[/MENTION] (my excitement not meant to persuade one direction or another, just riffing on what you've come up with): [B][U]Kamael, Aasimar Wild Magic Sorcerer[/U][/B] Is Kamael from the same city in heaven that Solace is from? If it is a celestial city, say something about why and how there is hunger, poverty, and corruption. I want to know more about this (sounds like there's a story there). Proselytizing! A super intriguing concept for a celestial city. Again, say more about the government and wealth economy of the city, if you will. Nice! Magic will out! Also the Magistrate sounds like an NPC with value to a DM. If you opt to play Kamael, would you be willing to provide me with a gloss of the Magistrate's NPC stats? Do you think he or she is the sort of individual to track down Kamael in the Underdark? If so, what's the motive? And a question: How would Neutral Good Kamael get along with Lawful Good Solace? What will he think of her, and what will she think of him? A note about equipment: it's okay if you don't have it picked at this early stage, but you will want to list your equipment choices on your sheet [b]in case you are able to retrieve it.[/b] Or in case it is "found" along your journey. If you take my meaning. Not promising anything, just saying that I want to keep it as an option. Noted re: an arcane focus, thanks, that's exactly the kind of thing I want to know. Glad to see you're brave enough to roll with being a complete rube in the Underdark. Again, if you opt for Kamael, I'll do my level best to make sure it's a fun (and not a frustrating!) play experience being new to the Realms and unfamiliar with the Underdark. There will be frustration with the lack of familiarity, I'm sure, but I hope it's the [I]good[/I] kind. The 60' darkvision will be helpful. As will Stealth. And if you find yourselves in a city in the Underdark, I think City Secrets will definitely be useful. I'll make sure it is; in many respects, one city is like another. [hr][/hr] [U][B]Veseh, Air Genasi Deep Stalker Ranger 3[/B][/U] Veseh isn't as well fleshed out at Kamael, but there's weight and meat to him that I sense that excites me. I'd be interested to mine a little more for info about the woodsman who raised Veseh. And the nearby monastery. What god was worshipped there? Reading Veseh's background, I can't help but compare it to Kamael's, and note that already you seem more invested in Kamael (that's great!). I gotta say, though, that I'm digging on the idea of an air genasi deep stalker. So is there maybe an NPC who recruited Veseh who you think would be of value to me? Oh, and [I]rope trick[/I] is a fantastic spell that would definitely see use. Oh, HELL yes. I'm all over that! If you select Veseh, we will work together via PM to come up with the Discovery. Man. Fun! AWESOME. I really, really like this. It's rife with implication. Both you and I can do a hell of a lot with this. Agreed. You've given yourself a hard choice, but it's a great position to be in. Mull on it some and let us know what you think. [/QUOTE]
