"If he HAPPENS to not be wearing it??" From your description it sounds like he will not be wearing it very often. Is that wrong?

Hmmm, I can have a character sheet that AUTOMATICALLY will put down incorrect information for the way my character usually will be..... gee, I think I'll pass on that one. After it "automatically populates" with the information that's not correct the majority of the time, can't you go back and "de-populate" it and make it right?

I could, if I desired to do so, which I do not. I like him the way he is, and with the way he feels about the armor that his MOM and DAD gave him he may just start wearing it ALL THE TIME! Just so he can get some more work in and get used to it faster! In fact, the response Pandak made to the mysterious voice barely won out over turning straight back into his room to put it back on and to get his axe.

The sheet is just right the way it is - it is MY record, after all!

(Gees, make a generous offer and get a sarcastic response! That'll teach me to try to share the results of all my hard work!)

 

[Leif]

Fine. I'm sure you're sheet is wonderful. However, THIS is MY D&D CAMPAIGN! Here's the way this is going to work: I have just sent you an email that explains the very generous terms that I am willing to offer. Take it or leave it.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Leave it. You are correct - it is your game, and I don't want to screw it up for you.

I had a specific character concept in mind, and the arms/armor were a part of it. Unfortunately, at this point I've pretty much fallen in love with the character, and rather than make another and be continually frustrated that I didn't get to play this one, or frustrate you because Pandak doesn't fit with your world or what you envision a wizard being, I'll bow out.

I couldn't figure out a way to write Pandak out without knowing what's going on right now - I didn't want to take liberties with the story line. So I'll leave that detail up to you.

A few thoughts:

The terms you offered don't seem that generous to me.

The books you've decided to allow (primarily the PHB and the DMG - Core Rule Books) provide rules for just such player desires. I was willing to take the 20% spell failure, along with the non-proficiency penalties for axes and armor until he could multi-class (Paragon next level, per our discussions) as a cool characterization. I even strongly resisted moving his stats around to give him a better strength at the cost of having average wisdom or below average charisma (both necessary attributes for an 'emissary' of the dwarves to the outside world that we discussed). I actually like the idea of playing a character with disadvantages, and in this case was looking forward to playing one who's disadvantages came from positive personality traits (hard working, etc.) rather than angst at being cast out/orphaned/alone in the world.

However, I'm not willing to blow two feats (or even one feat - see below) so I can do something the PHB allows me to do anyway, when the penalties I chose to take fit with my character concept. And even more especially when Chain Shirt is LIGHT armor - why in the world would I want to take an extra feat allowing me to wear medium armor when the armor I wear is light?

The Still Spell feat would have allowed me to reserve a few spells at least that I could cast without the penalty (no somatic components).

I would have had no problem with you rolling the spell failure chance, as long as you would be doing the same for everyone. I regularly make skill rolls for the characters in my game because it keeps the players from deducing facts simply by knowing their skill check failed. But in this case it sort of felt like you were afraid I'd cheat on the roll, which would have been somewhat insulting, or that you were reserving the right to make my spells fizzle if you so desired, which would have been somewhat petty.

Well, for someone who is giving up you certainly had a lot to say on your way out! I obviously wouldn't have made you take the feat for medium armor for precisely the reason that the chain shirt is light armor. My email was sent before I checked that in the ph. I resent your accusations of "pettiness." Of course the same rules apply for all characters. (And, in that regard, I am going to be imposing some penalites upon our glorious Tylara because the Gray Elf race is TOTALLY imbalanced, imho!) Your parting insults and accusations are not well-taken, and are, in themselves, a cheap shot because of your unwillingness to consider my response. But, I see that you have once again found a way to portray yourself as the poor martyr, which is your S.O.P. Bravo!! Take a bow, Mowgli!! I nominate you for an Academy Award!

Good-bye!

[sblock=Personal Information]
Background
Mikkanna's father, the head librarian of the academy, loves his daughter dearly and has doted on her ever since she was born. Mikkanna was a quiet and observant toddler and was allowed into the library even as a babe. The library was more of a home than her actual home and she had the main aisles and highly researched areas memorized before she was six. She loved the sweeping arched ceilings of the library halls and even from an early age enjoyed reading the texts on construction and architecture. Spending a great deal of time in her studies and poring over old tomes taught her much about language and she learned how to read draconic before she was taught it's spoken form.

Fascinated with engineering as well as architecture she turned to strange device experimentation in her early teens. Spending a portion of her time playing with odd devices almost cost her a finger or three over the years. It did in fact cost a number of outfits over the years and on one occassion it destroyed a wall in a dissastrous force effect she'd been attaching to a device. The smithy has since refused to help her with the manufacture of her strange gizmos completely, likely a very good thing, and since then she has tended to experiment with less dangerous pursuits working on smaller devices.

Despite her focus on odd devices, math and structures her mother insisted she pick up some other useful skills to help out with. Mikkanna tried a few different trades and found, to her great surprise, that sewing and tailoring is quite enjoyable for her. She's not highly skilled at it but spending her spare time on it, what little she manages to find, is something she enjoys.

Mikkanna, fascinated with the sciences, has focused on learning and in particular has an interest in divination magics. With no interest in illusion or death at all she's chosen to avoid both and her parents, despite not understanding her decision to ignore her races' illusion oriented heritage, support her in her studies. Not a day goes by in which her mother doesn't at least mention it a few times, "Why a diviner of all things dear?" often being heard.

Personality
Mikkanna is fascinated with the "hard sciences" and has a special fondness for architecture and engineering, loves divination magic, and spends an inordinate amount of time searching through the library archives for the next "great" undiscovered text. She's shy around strangers but her curiousity more often than not wins out pushing her to speak up and involve herself with them anyways. She is fond of animals and children.

She is extremely organized always knows where everything is. Her spellbook is incredibly well organized and precise as are the diagrams and schematics she creates. Her favorite color is green and she loves to collect shoes! The only thing she enjoys more than shoes and playing with her familiar is books; everything about them. She is always looking for a new book to bring back to the library, an interesting story or legend often being scribed into a few pages almost immediately as well. She smiles easily if a little shyly and tends to blurt out what she thinks without really considering it's effects.

Description
Mikkanna is a petite gnome with unkempt auburn hair that falls to mid-back. As often as not it is unbound and even when it is it seemingly has a knack to escape and drape itself across at least one side of her face. Her button nose holds up a custom crafted pair of mechanical mithral spectacles with multiple stacking finely polished lenses which look quite strange. When not in use the lenses rotate to the sides out of the way and her brilliant green eyes can be seen clearly gazing at the world around her with an almost palpable inquisitive air about them.

Her narrow face is framed by her hair and her angular face ending in a slightly rounded chin is contrased by her forest green multi-pocketed embroidered tunic. The tunic fits her snugly and she usually wears it over a loose fitting white long sleeved brocade shirt. These shirts have cotton ties at elbow and wrist that her mother adds to keep the garment from flopping about when she's thumbing through a tome or sketching out a new device to pester the crafters with.[/sblock]

Physical Description
Age: 18 Height: 5'9" Weight: 181 lb
Eyes: Black Hair: curly black, medium length Skin: olive (Mediterranean)

Appearance

Personality:
Despite being the son of two of the faculty members, Capizzio tends to be a bit of a trickster…perhaps because of who his parents are, that is why he is that way…never the less, he can be all business when the need arises. His attentiveness to his mother’s classes shows his love of the pure theory, but his father’s adventuristic tendencies are seen by a definate restlessness

Background tentative
Hello. my name is Capizzio Del Collines, son of the professor del Collines, historian and seeker of antiquities for the wizard’s academy. My mother has a teaching position in the arcane studies of the academy as well.. they know I am a bit of a wild sort at heart, but they still keep tabs on me.

Appearance / Personality:

Kerlan Rayne looks like a typical farmer's son. He wears plain, rugged clothes that are usually brown, like his deeply tanned skin. He is about average height and appears to be a naive young man, but he's not. He's friendly and helpful but generaly knows when to keep his mouth shut. He loves the exploration of magic, as long as it doesn't cross dangerous lines or puts people in harm's way. He's very optimistic and generally cheerful. He tends to seek out magic that can be practical and flexible.

Background:

Kerlan Rayne was born to a long line of farmers; the middle child of seven children. He grew up in a nice little village in a valley and his family generally did well enough to be comfortable there. When he was young, he became interested in magic. The little he was able to see in his life fascinated him. A Wizard named Savin taking an extended stay at their local inn noticed Kerlan and decided to let him browse through some of his old school books on the basics of magic. Kerlan took to it like a duck to water (as his mom used to say). He saw things he never imagined and quickly understood them. Savin saw the promise in him and became his mentor, returning every once in a while to encourage him on and eventually sponsor him at the closest College of Wizards. He knows that he is very lucky to be here and does not take it for granted.

Apologies

Technically, this belongs in the OOC thread, but as the offence occurred here . . .

My apologies to you, Leif, as well as to the others in this game, for making public statements about your policies that perhaps should have been voiced privately via e-mail. My comments truly were about your policies, and not about you as a person.

I sincerely hope that the game goes well for everyone - y'all have fun!

 

[Leif]

Mowgli,
It's all cool. We have already made our truce.

 

[KerlanRayne]

Yes I was going to use the same name. I got my handle from an old Wizard character I played. If you think it might be confusing, I can change it. No problem.
