Silver Marshes Campaign (Game Closed)

Prof Yeti: Not to be dense, but I have had my fair share of cervasas already, but what is the Open Minded feat? Or are you saying it is still up for debate in your mind what is going there. Also, the Oversized TWF feat where is that one from? Just curious as I couldn't remember seeing that one before, again it might just be the beers.

SS: I will go back and relook over the gnome substitution, but I don't think it will be a problem.

Group: I hope all of you have a happy and safe 4th of July, and after a day of drifting lazily down a river on an intertube, I have most of the groundwork in my head for the ramp up of the adventure. I will get a RG thread up soon and we can start posting the finalized chars up there.

Both feats are from the Complete Adventurer book. Open Minded gives you 5 skill points but you have to obey all the normal rules (max. skill ranks, skills count normally so cross-class still 2 points per rank). And oversized two-weapon just means you count a one-handed weapon in your off-hand as light (It requires Two-Weapon Fighting feat as a prereq.) So I could attack with either axe and shield or axe and warhammer. If you don't want to use them that is fine I have other ideas.
 

Prof: Could you go back and edit the saves for me please? With the +3 Ranger, +4 fighter, I get a little lost as I don't know what sequence you took your levels and just a simple +5 base, +2 Con would work alot better for me. I'm not trying to be picky honest, but as I cut and paste all of your sheets onto my home system for easy access, I don't want to mess anything up once we get started.

The Open Minded part is fine with me as far as feats go. If you want to have more skills, then go for it, and the same for the OTWF.

Alright Crimson, I'm pretty set on the bard idea now. If no one else plays a rogue then I will play a Rogue 2/Bard 3/Stormsinger 1 (if allowed). If someone else takes the rogue spot then I will replace those levels with bard. I just want to make sure we have someone in the party who can disable traps and the like.

I've got a ton of stuff for my backstory, so I will try to condense that and post it as soon as I get a chance. Sometime today I will be leaving for the holiday, so if you don't hear from me till tuesday don't be alarmed. :) I may be on later tonight to post the backstory though.

If I don't post again, have a nice 4th of July all!

Gabrion: I went back and looked through the Frostburn book and like the subtle flavor of the Stormsinger, so if you want to go that route go ahead, but I think it might be easier on you if you only took one level of rogue as otherwise you will have to pay cc cost for some of the skills you will need to pick up. (Concentration, Knowledge (Arcana) ). I know that while rogues do get an abundant number of skills, no need in wasting points where you don't have to.

(Edited)All: My e-mail address is crimson_tide_zealot(at)yahoo(dot)com. If you all don't mind, please send me a breakdown of the char sheets by level so I can get a better understanding of where the feats/skills came in at. Also, while I know nobody is trying to slide any munchkin points in by just going with an end point total and placing them where they want, I like to see where the chars "went" each lvl. This is strictly voluntary, as I do trust you guys/gals, but I just like to see all the small things that go into a char and its build. Again let me stress this is just a voluntary thing and nothing bad will happen if you don't feel up to doing it. Don't want you guys to think I am an ogre before the game starts..:)

Thanks and once again have a great 4th.

No problem! It was a left over from the build so I wouldn't forget anything.

Groovy about the feats!

No problem will have it to you before the sun goes down.
 

Sorry for the long hiatus, but my camping trip lasted a few more days then I thought it would. I have a character I was playing in another game before it died, Regis, a halfling dagger thrower. I'll post him in a few.
 

Background

I'm told that I was born in a small halfling community in the Dale lands. When I was just 3 years old a group of goblins and worgs attacked my village. They killed everyone and burned everything. A warband of elves that were tracking the goblins came upon the burning village but were too late to help. They searched for survivers and found only one. One of the hunters, Lavits Swiftblade, was married to Selyna Whitewolf. She was sterile and could not bear any children. I was taken to the elves home in the forest. Lavits and Selyna took me in as thier own. I was a bright child and many task came easy to me. My father decided to show me how to throw daggers, his trademark on the battle field and in the taverns. He was surprised at how easily it came to me. We began practicing all the time, even simulated combat situations. Mother disapproved. She thought me too small to fight and was concerned for my safty. When I came of age, my father presented me with my own set of daggers and a custom fitted suit of armor. He said I was ready to fight in a warband. The other warriors were skeptical. We were tracking orcs when we encounted a small band of goblins. The fight was brief, maybe half a minute, but when it was over I had killed two goblins. My father was pleased and the other warriors were impressed. For several months we hunted down the vile creatures that roamed our lands. My bond with my fellow warriors and my father grew. But soon I grew restless, and I tired of the same day to day task. My father sensed it and said that he knew the day would come. He said that it is common for the shorter lived races to want adventure. He gave me some supplies, a map, and told me to go to the human city of Silverymoon. He said I will find my adventure there.
