so im makeing my first spellcaster...

[ffanxii4ever]

awsome. now i just need to think of a weapon for the old guy. i cant see him running up to pepole with a hammer and sheild, so im leaning more towards a thrown weapon like a javilen or spear. unasure of how i can make something like that without haveing him need to run up to were it landed to pick it up again though.

Well if you want a ranged weapon, there always is the tried and true crossbow
But as for thrown weapons, you can either just carry a boatload of them on you, or you can hope for one with a returning enchantment on it(pg 471), which would allow for you to throw it, and for it to come flying back to you before your next turn

hrmmm... that would be good, but the bugbear tribe he comes from is somewhat magically starved. (although im thinking of makeing an albino bugbear wich is abnormally profficiant in the ways of magic. makeing him a seer to the tribe, and a sorcerer/wizard to the group)


right now im thinking this.


on his back he carries a large quiver of javelins, (id say somewere between 10 and 40) wich can be extended into spears. this way they can be thrown as javlelens for extra range, or used as melee weapons/ shorter ranged weapons for higher damage. and they could all be picked up after the fight, unless otherwise lost.

Hey, if your DM lets you, go right ahead, just becareful about encumberance, though I have not known that many DMs to be real sticklers about that

ya i found out the hard way that haveing 40 of those thoughts would weigh a ton. i wound up makeing him have only 20, each weighing one pound. (elven engeneering. they can make things light, AND strong XD)

now i just need to figure out the feats, and the special abilitys, and Euav the bugbear cleric will be ready for the road!

Combat Casting is always a good choice for a caster that thinks that there is even a slim chance that they will end up in melee
And Toughness is always a safe bet, especially since you don't have a huge CON, and a teeny bit below average hit points

 

[Gicko]

awsome, thanx. i allready have combat casting, so toughness should be prity good for a 2nd feat. espessally since my CON is even lower then before now. (i swapped my CON with my DEX to add some AC and ranged attack bonus)


thanx for the help!
