Ryfte said:Well... based on the actual size/weight tables in the MMs...
Tiny 1'-2' and 1-8 pounds. I'll revisit this and look at some relevant real life comparisons.
Scaling Statement: SCALING DOES NOT WORK BY THE RULES!!!
- Carrying capacity of 15, 30, 45 pounds!!!
- Weight of tiny padded armor --> 1 pound! (same weight as the character)
- Weight of a tiny spear --> 1.5 pounds and same damage as a small dagger???
Just a few examples.If you don't mind I'll use some logic and adjust as appropriate.
As far as the animal companion goes I was drawing a blank on any other animal companion that could keep up... and with a flying mount then even wide open spaces become navigable. I'll look at the listing again of course but it didn't really seem like any of them fit particularly well... *shrug* On that note and all things aside... how do you feel about the alternate shape changing ability listed in the PHB2?

I find the size range charts the hardest part of the srd to easily find to reference.
The one pound surprised me, as it does with the grig, but I'm only comparing to my real world two and a half year old son who is over three feet and 33 pounds.
Let's just go with D&D physics and not really worry about it much. I don't really want to do my own figuring for 1' humanoid scaled equipment or evaluating others.
I wasn't suggesting the eagle was a bad choice or I wanted you to choose another, I find the parallel to the giant eagle which can be used as a mount quite apt.
However I like the simple mechanics of the PH II shifting option.

No worries, I think I posted enough in the info thread (Link in the first post) on them and I will post more if you have specific questions. I just wanted to gauge your familiarity with Dover and the different versions of them in the various sourcebooks.
Basically LG hunters with a martial bent, at ease in natural terrain, they prefer to live close to nature, have developed oral traditions, epic poetry is a common cultural art, and bards have a respected place in their society. Usually ruled by a Scholar King in peace and a War Queen in battle.

Thanks, I did read your intro on the first page to get a little familiar with the Dover, and am looking forward to playing it. only question is appearance of the dover race in general to get a better idea of how to describe him. umm...other then that I'm working equipment and should be good to go by the end of today.

Dover appear as german shepard aspected humanoids. Covered in short fur of varying colors (brown, black and gray are common, sometimes with white mixed in) Their heads are fully canine and their legs have that shepard slinking gait. Their feet are like canine rear paws while their hands are fully humanoid though with thick black nails.

Okay, I have more or least completed a version of Thelso, but need one final question answered. As I have the War Domain I gain the Weapon Focus of my Deity (Kerala). Which would be ????. This is all I'm needing at this time and I'll post the final of Thelso after I get this answer. Thanks
