[QUOTE="dead_radish, post: 1230671, member: 5560"] Excellent. I like the Totem as well, but the style of the Halberd just seems cool. Plus the fact that it's a reach weapon, combined with a Tauren's reach, is kinda cool. ;) The Tauren seem especially suited for reach, since they can gore at close range. It was mainly the art that won me over, though - all the really cool Tauren art seemed to have the Halbard. The banner is something I just created, using the DMG rules on item creation. I assume that it would occupy the vest slot, since it's connected to a brace on his chest. It's just a limited save bonus +1, which is bonus squared x 250 gp. It just seemed flavorful to me. I was inspired for that by the war banners that the blademasters (I think it was) carried in War3. I figured that he'd have it enchanted as a wonderous item as time goes on, to give it multiple effects (at a higher cost), and possibly be able to extend those bonuses to others waaaaaaay in the future. And yeah, the gloves are a 1st level AU spell, cast as a first level caster. Style-wise, I see it as something where he lays his hands on the ground, concentrates, then rubs them across his face and snout, and can then scent things for 10 minutes. Not at all unbalancing, it would seem. I am an AU junkie, so I tend to get a lot of inspiration from there, just to warn you. ;) And the Tauren seem uniquely suited to be a very ceremonial type of race, so.... I'll get his backstory up soon, too, so we can work out the meeting of our group. [/QUOTE]
