(YaEg)REBOOT! Recruiting more players!!!!!!

I'm not to sure about a skateboarding halfling

Aww. come on, we've got a investigator style dwarf, a goblin writer trained in the arts of insult comedy, a halfling street thug who skates around would just add to it

I was thinking something along the lines of using the balance skill to ride the board, perhaps let me pick up "mounted" combat feats, ride-by-attack on a skateboard baby! That and I think it's the only setting where it could at least be possible other than a d20 modern game.

Hmmmm...So how about a link?

D&D Online Games

Eberron - A New Beginning (my game I'm running)

That's good to hear (that we're not dead, not that your having connection problems... )

So I'm assuming Jonas passes muster so far? Any details on the campaign yet that we can tie our characters into (where we're starting, do we know each other, etc.)? I've kept the background info pretty light so far so I can work it into whatever situation you present.

Thanks!

Is *everybody* going to do the 2x18 + dump stats array? Cause if everybody's doing that, a more rounded char. isn't as useful, so I'll tweak mine to the original "power array" I was considering.

Or maybe I should ask spidertrag...What's more appropriate for this game?

the two 18's plus "dump" stats array is still a pretty tight array

18 18 14 12 12 12, is pretty good on all fronts

well, after much thought, I've decided to allow it---u'll definatly need skills in balance& perform. Also, u'll need feats for 'mounted' xombat---which will obviously only apply to the 'board'----

First thoughts on the 'board':
1) its wheeless---it hovers---maybe w/enough money, u can employ an artificer to provide a power source for it
2)at present, u power it---though it is subject to gravity (gotta love the curvy archietecture in the shadowlight district of Sharn (the lower 50 feet or so.)
3)while it does hover, it requires a solid surface----if u hit a lake, go over a cliff, etc...u may be in trouble

more ideas to follow

Aye, Jonas is fine

The chars will know each other as they have been working for a professor in the university for about 3 months now (I'll post more info on this tommorrow)

Well, calling them "dump" stats was admittedly tongue-in-cheek. I actually do think that for my char it's better to spread the points out a little more since skills are so important.

But two 18's is sooooo tempting...

Yay! Now I'm happy. I like your ideas yeah, ranks in balance, tumble and jump also for mad-stylin'

Maybe we could work it in that Jonas made this thing as his "test" for getting the Craft Wondrous Items feat. The folks up in Aundair weren't sure of its usefulness or application, so Jonas traveled to Sharn to find someone that could demonstrate such to his superiors (thus his presence in Sharn). Let's see, floating disk as a prerequisite spell for the base model; perhaps gust of wind or a bound elemental for a supped-up model with a power source...

If you want, I can use the DMG guidelines and stat the thing out as a wondrous item.
