S@squ@tch's Against the Giants in Eberron - recruiting a cleric/healer

[Graf]

cool. Should characters be optimized?
would something like a dragonmarked heir be too weak?

 

[greenstar]

Edited equipment and backround and gave Ki better stuff.

 

[Mellubb]

I upgated Leaf with his background and equipment. Please let me know if there are any problems.

BTW, I gave him a Quiver of Endless Arows, I will use the restrictions post in LEB, (Regular arrows not masterwork).

Characters should be optimized for the story and persona you are attempting to portray. Min/Max'ing is not required or wanted -- more important is the ability to breath life into your PC and become involved in the campaign.

My aim is to make, as much as possible, an immersive world in which the PC's are free to explore and do what they want. My goal is not purely to be hack-and-slash with no character development. (Although G1-G3 is definitely old school with respect to providing hack-and-slash opportunities)

So, in a nutshell, no.

So are psionics allowed or not? I noticed the githzerai monk has Inertial armor (A psionic power).

Are you using the optional rule from the MIC about the standard enhancements not costing extra for doubling up abilities on items, because I noticed that the monk also has both an amulet and a periapt which take up the same slot?

Not trying to be a stickler, just wondering if I can use these rule variations as well.

Would the single domain option for druids from UA be allowed? (allows a druid to take a single domain from this list: air, earth, fire, water, plant, animal or sun). It's only 2 extra basic spells.

Whats the name of the divine version of the pearl of power from MIC?

Pearl of Power
This seemingly normal pearl of average size and luster is a potent aid to all spellcasters who prepare spells (clerics, druids, rangers, paladins, and wizards). Once per day on command, a pearl of power enables the possessor to recall any one spell that she had prepared and then cast

It appears that the divine version is also named a Pearl of Power. Hope that's what you're looking for.

The inertial armor on the gith was allowed as a racial feature (playing it like the deep gnome's automatic +4 dodge modifier....)

As far as the monk's amulet and periapt, I need to look into that, as I must have overlooked that item -- it was not intended.

Now, I must go find Strahd and shake him like a British Nanny.

In the MIC, there is the section about adding bonuses to existing items. The amulet/periapt could be one of those. It costs the same as buying the items seperately.

And here I just finished reading page 234 in the MIC. So, basically, Strahd just needs to combine them into one item that occupies his throat slot. Same price in the end according to the RAW.

Drat. I don't get to invoke the DM Lightning Bolt from the sky on the poor Gith.
