The Portal (Always Recruiting)

[Joshua Randall]

Players whose characters need fixing

Joshua Randall (Human Sorcerer)
You forgot to add your extra spell known due to high charisma.

I fixed this.

You've misunderstood the standard point buy system (so did I, until recently). As per the DMG, page 169, you pay one point per increase until you reach 14. 15 and 16 cost 2 points each. 17 and 18 cost 3 points each.

If you want an easy way to spend your 25 points, you can use the elite array: 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8.

Note that you do point buy before applying racial modifiers.

Jemal....Thanks alot....think my brain is on the fritz....

 

[Endovior]

Damn, forgot racial modifiers when I was busily calculating absolutely everything else. My fault enirely. That puts Ferretguy, Ranger Rick, and Joshua Randall into the Approved category.

 

[khavren]

By background, you mean our real life background?

 

[sword-dancer]

I must sign out for time reasons.

 

[Goddess FallenAngel]

Looks like I'm going to have to bow out - the game I was in that died just got resurrected, so I'm not going to have time at the moment for this one.

Thanks, and have fun....

 

[Ranger Rick]

FYI - I may be offline Thursday night through Tuesday morning or maybe not. It depends on my family's vacation plans.


I am still in, I will just not be around this weekend.

 

[khavren]

How would you work clerics? Could I be a cleric of Buddha? or are clerics not an option?

 

[Willow Aura]

Bear with me here, this is my first character not using GURPS...

Description: Jackie is a vertically challenged girl of 14, with ash blonde hair and gray-green eyes. That is, before her trip through the portal. Now she is a towering Gray Elf with light skin, flowing silver hair and understanding amber eyes.
Personality: Even before Jackie went through the portal, she held about her a certain sence of pride and conciet. Now she has an excuse to back it up. Jackie was a bit of a chatterbox, but is slightly less so now that she has a reputation to uphold.
Backstory: Jackie lived in a small town quite close to Sacramento, California. She was in good physical condition, biking to school and back every day, and was fairly bright, showing up on the honour roll and in advanced classes. Jackie was fairly likeable, with many friends and a supprotive family. But despite all this, Jackie always felt that there was something missing from her life, something vital. Whether she'll find it on the other side of the portal or not, nobody knows.

Clerics are an option, but they require some thought: are YOU comfortable with a sudden conversion to what is effectively paganism in exchange for divine power? If so, then go right ahead. If not, then you can become a cleric of an alignment, which amounts to having some interesting conversations (the faithful would call them prayers) with an array of similarly aligned outsiders. That being accomplished, you'll receive your daily spells from your steadily growing list of extraplanar contacts, rather then from a specific god.

PS: Oh, and Willow, whose character I personally oversaw the making of, is of course approved.
