RJK's Cairn of the Skeleton King: OOC-Chat

[Land Outcast]

No Wilderlands experience but willing to offer a character, a Dragon Shaman/Monk probably. Just wondering, how would you rule the use of a lasso?

Good to know it will run for around a month, but starting the 15 could prove an issue (to me, of course), so take into accound that I might back down if I result overwhelmed by IB (International Baccaleurate) assignments.

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

Recorded, and awaiting your concrete proposals. This will a tough module, so a balanced party might be a good choice.

Slot 2 given to Land Outcast!

 

[Legildur]

Reserved a slot for Kafkonia; Zoon, you can pick whatever standard race you want. The only real restriction for WL is that there are no drows. You might want to check the following document, to flesh your PC's backstory out a bit:

I've just had a look at the link. Do Ghul have a base speed of 50ft or 30ft? The text clearly says 50ft, but the stat block for the Ghul warrior wearing leather armor says only 30ft.

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

Y...Y... You want to play a BONE-FOLK?! Aaaalrighty, then...

50 ft should be the base speed, I think. If you decide to play such a critter, take into consideration that the bone folk comes from the far east, and has a distinct oriental (samurai) touch.

I'll keep that in mind. Maybe a Ghul Ninja then??

A Bugbear Ranger (or Scout) 3 is also calling to me....

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

Just pick what you think fits better. A Bugbear will maybe have an easier life on the Roglaras (WL main land), while a Ghul Ninja will maybe be a bit deadlier in battle...

Now, I am a bit disappointed that noone has volunteered to play a True Necromancer (Heroes fof Horror) already... Lvl 7 is already pretty brutal for such a magician...

Well, I don't have Heroes of Horror, so nothing I take will be that dangerous

Any hints about the main part of the scenario? Is it outdoors? Dungeon crawling? Is there a dominant creature type as the foe (eg undead springs to mind with the title)?

 

[Le Noir Faineant]

I wont give you any hints, but what do you deduce from the title CAIRN of the SKELETON KING, my dear Watson?

I'd like to try a Northern Druid (Probably Human). Since I qualify for the third level of Animal companion (Druid 7), what do you think of swapping a Dire tiger for a Winter wolf. I know it's technically a Magical Beast instead of a true animal, but the DC(5) for the critter is identical and I think the background will be better for the setting.

If so, you can put Zanax Frost down as the party's Druid.
