Power of the Forge campaign [Game Closed]

[Krug]

A not-so-strong crossbow wielding dwarf? How does that sound? A member of the guard out to perform a mission perhaps.

After searching for a nice pantheon on the net, I still liked the cliche of the nordic (asgardian) pantheon better. You can find it in chapter 6 of Deities and Demi gods. Here's a table with an overview.

I'll be a Paladin of Tyr, the god of Courage, Strategy and Writing, I used to be a Mason and I'm currently working on a project to help improve the defences of the prince's stronghold.

I'll post my char in the thread in an hour, or, if sleep overwhelms me, tomorrow.

Hi Jaiaxe, Welcome to the forums! I'm not the DM, but I think I can answer your questions.

The pointbuy system is used so that every player has equal power and can choose exactly how the scores are divided. The basic score is 8 and you can put points into a score to make it better. But higher scores require more points.

A score of 9 requires 1 point.
A score of 10 requires 2 points.
A score of 11 requires 3 points.
A score of 12 requires 4 points.
A score of 13 requires 5 points.
A score of 14 requires 6 points.
A score of 15 requires 8 points.
A score of 16 requires 10 points.
A score of 17 requires 13 points.
A score of 18 requires 16 points.

I'll give an example with my own scores.

Score - Points needed

14 - 6
12 - 4
14 - 6
9 - 1
14 - 6
16 - 10

A total of 33 points. After calculating the racial bonusses, this is waht I get

14 - 12 - 16 - 9 - 14 - 14.

Posting your msn adres is not against the rules if I remember correctly, but if you want to be on the safe side, P(rivate)M(essage) your mail adres.

Posted to the character thread. Let me know if there's anything that needs changing.

Oh, and on point buy, if anyone's interested, I've been using an online calculator from here:

Well, my character is up, I'll probably edit the background for spelling, but not at 3 am.

I do have one question.

My character has lost his richt hand (just like the god he serves) and insted of that he has a gauntlet. Is it allowed for him to use this gauntlet as the second hand for shooting his crossbow and is it allowed to attach his shield to this gauntlet (as a move action)?

Well, I'm off to bed, I'll see y'all tomorrow

Fine by me.

Sure, I'll check your character later and comment over here

OK Jaiaxe- this are the changes for Dwarf druid, first of all you can replace the wood rule with stone rule ,you are not a creature of the forest, you are a creature of the earth.
So, you can use stone equipment (Stone war hammer for example), you are protecting the earth instead of the wood so you don't like miners for example.
you can use wood also, just keep the stones and the earth creatures safe from the metal of your friends, needless to say that druidic influance in this land within your clan is very very low. (just like the green people here on earth )

Players

I updated the player list - 2 more spots left, post your dwarves in the RG.

Krug - very nice character, keep on working.

Timothy - I liked the background, good job.

Jkason - Good concept, by the way you can join one of the following trader guild - metal, stone, gem, underground food or any other you can invent.

Ranger rick - I saw your character, right now the party don't need another fighter, we have Krug's fighter and Timothy paladin.

here goes another question:

The smelting process means that you separate the stone from the metal, and normally the smelthing houses are interested in keeping the metal, and loose the stone. would it be a good ideia if my PC runs a smelthing house, so i could separate the stone and keep it, and loose the metal or even sell it... in my background i would have a brother who works with stone, but only the pure stone, the one that is empty from all the impurities...





The stone cries, the stone bleeds, the stone talks of "His" needs... the stone crawl from the mountain, the stone cries, and still crying, when she bleeds, no more words, no more breed.
