Scummer D&D

[ConManMick]

I was going to do human because normally when I play RPGs I always do. But then I was like "SEE IN THE DARK" and "LIVE LONGER"
You guys'll see shortly what I go for. I may share my sheet early because I'm having some troubles with the stats side of things.

[PJ.]

The short answer?
Not easily.
Wizard gets an expansive library of spells and can take a lot of book-keeping to run efficiently, but you do, notably, get a ton of battlefield control and mind-control stuff. Early spells that come to mind are Grease, Charm Person, Hypnotism, Sleep, Color Spray, etc. If it's just that you don't want to hurt stuff but you're fine letting other things commit to the carnage, you could play a Sorcerer that specializes in Summon Monster.
I can't stress enough how strong Summon Monster is.
Color Spray and Sleep are also god-tier at lower levels. Grease is good forever.

@Conmanmick: Humans are great! The big reason (outside of flavor, which is honestly the best reason for anything) to pick another race is if their stat bonus and deficiency play well into your build.

Also bonus ac.

Screw it I'm human


Then I can be taller.

eyestott, I'm going to be using the old image I used for your character. (Pippin from LOTR)

What a

human

What an

elf

[T-Bone]

Man you are so much better at roll20 than I am. I just use tokens and draw free hand...

Also if anyone needs help understanding things in the ruleblooks, while I am not THE DM I am a DM so I know things...hit me up on skype tbone.caleb if you don't have me.

[ConManMick]

I will likely avail of that, in case you're wondering who Douglas is

[PJ.]

I can't create a myth-weavers account to make my guy.

Here is my character, Clovis Anatole L'Grenouille XIV.

He's a ranger, but I'll be building him towards two-weapon fighting and, eventually, to being the Beastmaster prestige class from Complete Adventurer.

Clovis Anatole L'Grenouille, ever the disciple of petty heroics and dandyism, spat at his the notion of simply inheriting his family's estates and insisted he must prove himself like the adventurers he'd heard legend of. At his behest, his family's servants procured as much literature as they could find on how to 'become a hero' and 'slay dragons'. Before his father could talk him out those childish fantasies, Clovis had fled from home with enough gold to afford travelling supplies and weapons. Enchanted and delusional, Clovis has finally arrived at his destination; a dungeon worthy of his aspirations.

[Hanasawa]

Haha, FG finally using roll20.

I'll probably pass on this since there seems to be a ton of people joining already and my whole day will become filled with tabletop RPG sessions. Have fun everyone!

Make the character on one of those interactive character sheet pdfs and take screenshots and upload them here.

Nice. This is the classic solution to "how to two weapon fight without having immense Dex".

[T-Bone]

Which sourcebook did you get that from?

[FakeGod]

Champion of the Wild is non-spellcasting alternative for rangers in complete warrior I think.

[T-Bone]

Hmm never read any of the complete sourcebooks

[FakeGod]

Goblin bandits always have been a pest for towns, but their threat recently escalated when:

Supposedly, she's locked up in a dungeon somewhere being forced to make masterwork arms and armors for these vile creatures, and it's up to you, adventurers, to find the goblins' hideout and rescue her.


The caves the goblins have taken residence used to be notorious for dangerous monsters, but it seems that the goblins have cleared out a portion of the cave and claimed it as their own. Still, you should be on your guard when you're exploring the dungeon!

[T-Bone]

"Is she a

green

blacksmith?"

[FakeGod]

Warning: This is a rather difficult dungeon, and I expect people to die if they're not careful.

I'm also not going to be hesitant in killing PCs, since re-entry to the game is easy.

Good luck.

[PJ.]

What's starting HP for bard?

[FakeGod]

Your hit dice is d6, and level 1 uses the maximum of the hit dice, so 6.

Plus any Con modifier you have.

[PJ.]

8 health let's go.

still need items but i think this is most everything else.

[FakeGod]

Songbird isn't a spell from a book we're using.

changed out the spells, added what my items will likely be, still gotta math out the gold and add the stats to said items, i'll be able to do that before the game. Is there anything I'm missing? Should I add any misc items

[FakeGod]

Looks good.

What did you pick for your feat?

[PJ.]

Melodic casting but I think I should change it to combat expertise or something that helps me right now instead of not right now.
