[QUOTE="Wicht, post: 289035, member: 221"] And now the promised character update, but first, since I already mentioned the names of my players let me put player with character. Tilliana is being played by Sandra, my wife. This is her second real DnD experience. Alairic is being played by Tom. This is his first time playing 3e. Niccolo is being played by Naomi, Tom's wife. This is her first roleplaying experience. The fact that Naomi is female and Niccolo is male has caused me to occassionally refer to Niccolo as a her in the text. If you caught this, this is the reason why. Heidon is being played by Justin, Naomi's son. This is also his first roleplaying experience. Almost 95% of the dialog in the story is taken directly from game play, though sometimes I am guilty of using OOC comments for my own amusement and for purposes of enhancing the story. For hit point advancement I have allowed the players to roll once and then decide if they want to reroll. They must keep the second roll. This can be good or bad. Niccolo ended up with a 1 hit point advancement at 3rd level due to a bad reroll, but thems the breaks. It might also be noted that the characters are relatively poor for 3rd level. This is not my fault. They have so far burnt 13,000+gp worth of loot :D ******************************************** [u][b]Alairic[/b][/u][b], Male Human Pal3:[/b] CR 3; Size M (5 ft. tall); hp 20; Init +5; Spd 20 ft; AC 18; Atk +6 melee (2d6+3 Greatsword); SV Fort +6, Ref +5, Will +4; Ali LG; Str 15, Dex 13, Con 11, Int 7, Wis 16, Cha 16.
