Paths of Legend: Lord Noran's War (OOC Thread)

Lynx_The_one: I'll fine tooth comb it later, but a quick glance over tells me it looks good. Awesome concept by the way.

Yttermayn: I have a revision of that template available, actually. I worked it into the monster progression I did for the Yuan-ti. See attached.

bedford: Ogre would be fine. Half-ogre barbarian would be fine, although I have no idea what a mineral warrior is, so that part is not fine. The anthropomorphic animals in Savage Species I'm not real fond of and don't use, so those are out also.

 

[bedford]

would i be allowed to add the feral template to half ogre?

 

[James Heard]

I think I'm going to withdraw my name completely from this, it's starting to feel more like a zoo or a poisoner's convention than a game I'd feel comfortable in.

Yes, however, keep in mind that this campaign is a social and political intrigue campaign so such a character may not have very much to do.

I'm sorry to hear that, you had a great concept and background. Good gaming.

Bummer. I don't know the guy, but I get what he's saying. 'Course, everyone wants to try something different and wierd, so we all end up with funny character concepts. I'm guilty of it too, with the tainted one thing. I was aware of the trend, but still wanted to do something a little different. Everyone has probably already played the standard races and classes ad nauseum. The trick is to do something a little different without getting silly- "Alright, my celestial lycanthrope tiefling ranger/monk/paladin hits you for 20 points of damage..."

It has always been my philosophy that Player Characters are special and unique in the world, regardless of their race. Weird races and such just emphasize that.

Good point. So then is my tainted one rouge an OK combination? If so, I'll put together his background and submit it.

Yes. Just use the revised version I attached above (use the Tainted One level at the beginning of the yuan-ti monster progression).

can you finish going over my sheet. I have a sinking suspicion my attack bonuses are wrong.
