Princes of the Apocalypse a D&D 5e Adventure - Full Party

[Haschel Cedricson]

I'm just dipping; I'm going Wizard the rest of the way.

[Irrelephant11]

Oh, hm. Okay, do you expect to be healing-centric or should I be (atm I was planning on it)?

[brassherald]

lolllllll I thought HC was a wizard not a cleric brb changing my spells again

So did I until I literally just checked.

[Haschel Cedricson]

I plan on mostly doing divination stuff. I can emergency heal but it's not gonna be my Main Thing.

[Irrelephant11]

Okay great, no spells changed here.

[skitter30]

@irrelephant - i have a couple of healing spells, specifically healing word and goodberry

[brassherald]

So, a bit on formatting for the fact that you guys have newer players in here, and I don't feel like writing another motion right now.

1. When we begin the game and I don't have the module with me, so I don't know how quickly this will happen, eventually there will be mechanical things like dice rolls to do, the first time one comes up, I will put an explanation in a spoiler.
2. I'm going to put in some maps for combat where we'll just assign grid numbers to keep track of where everyone is, so movement will be somewhat easy to track, I believe. It's not as important in 5e as others (4th Edition was impossible without a map)
3. Each time we are in combat, I'm going to ask that everyone gives me the relevant information at the beginning of the combat in their first post, I'll make it more clear there.
4. I think the best way to handle the threads is that this will also be your OOC thread, where you can discuss tactics or just ask about any issues. Feel free to use this to your heart's content, the thread itself I'd like to keep relatively cleanly on game moving posts.
5. I'm going to go with the combat rounds resolve in order, but you do not have to post in combat order. So, basically, even if you are going last in combat, feel free to post your actions, and if I see an issue while resolving, I'll just ask you what you want to do with it, like if someone kills your target before your turn.

[Irrelephant11]

Yeah I did notice those! I just figured you probably wouldn't be going in an especially healer-y direction, so I thought I probably should. Bards seem to be great at heal/buff/debuff sorts of things, so I don't mind taking my character that direction.

pedit: :excited:

[skitter30]

irrelephant, i'm kinda ambivalent either way tbh. if you want to be a healer there's other interesting spells for me to use, and if you don't, i'm fine with that too

maybe we both have a couple of healer-y type spells?

[brassherald]

Just a bit of a note for the discussion, generally in the D&D community, it is accepted that it is better to proactively prevent damage than to heal it in terms of efficiency.

[Irrelephant11]

Yeah I have a buff and a debuff for that very reason. If you want to change your spells, skitter feel free! I plan on continuing on this "keep the party strong and the enemies weak" path so if there's a more fun direction for you to go with your magic you should. If you want to be able to heal, though, be my guest! And I'll take one or two more unique spells along the way.

[PJ.]

I have no buffs, no debuffs, and no healing. So weehaww i guess.

You're a Rogue, I recently built a rogue with the main goal of constantly dealing sneak attack damage.

Thread time

[Haschel Cedricson]

Can you edit a list of character names and links to the character sheets in the OP?

EDIT: Also, would people use a Discord or Skype chat?

[brassherald]

I can and will do that now, I would prefer we use the discord, if we want to use any voice chat/messaging

[Irrelephant11]

I can use the Discord occasionally but mostly will be sticking to the forum

Am I right in thinking Harald and Smoke are the only men?

[Haschel Cedricson]

Joell is as well.

That's the joke.
