[D&D-3.5e] Sands of fate

[Dieuoffire]

@arkenpay: I don't see anything that affects the campaign drastically. I can add that war to the list of others (I actually think I can replace one with that one.)

[Dieuoffire]

@arkenpay: Here are a few minor changes summed up

The War of the Mushrooms

Nost-Anos and Azure Shield went to war over boarders and wild produce that can be harvested in abundance along their boarders. In the year 2142 Azure Shield dispatched their goblinoid mercenaries to expel encroaching Nost-Anos merchants. When a platoon of bugbears “exceeded their mandate" after encountering a group of maidens harvesting mallowberries well within Nost-Anos territory, the result was war.

The Nost-Anos forces (men, gnomes, and halflings) had initial success until Azure Shield hired more forces from Bloodcrown. Nost-Anos fought bitterly during their retreat. The goblinoid armies sensed victory when their foes were trapped at zephyr lake. However Bador en-Cânë’s came to the Aid of Nost-Anos because of frequent orc incursions on their lands during the war. Bador en-Cânë’s entry into the war struck Azure Shield like a hammerblow. The elves, their sylvan allies, and Nost-Anos advisors whipsawed the goblins at the river and elven strike teams penetrated Azure Shield territory and raided their trade routes.

Azure Shield pressed for a truce, but negotiations ultimately failed over the winter months. In late spring, fighting resumed. The Battle of Zapad-Fetyok resulted in a draw, with heavy losses for Azure Shield. Subsequently, Bloodcrown informed Azure Shield that they were suspending mercenary support, which left them no choice but accept unfavorable peace terms. This ended the War of the Mushrooms.

Merged changes into character application. Hope you enjoyed my tale.

Well, now I feel like an underachiever. ^//^

@Dieuoffire: How much would "herbs and spices" from the Poison Woods cost? So Caelynn can flavor her rations with appropriate poisons?

[Dieuoffire]

Ermine: That depends upon how much she wants and the quality thereof. One other thing; although poison woods is most famous for its poisons, it does have dozens of other useful plants both magical and mundane. They are rare but for some reason it seems like almost anything can be found there.

[Ermine]

Standard quality, and lots. Enough to share.

[Dieuoffire]

About 2 gp would get you a dozen spices.

[Ermine]

Done

[Dieuoffire]

btccg: sorry forgot to answer you on whether not not the totem druid is tier 1.

I believe he is.

Nah, it is just that people want to try out the house rules. How often does you paladin get +10 feats and attributes? Or you get to play a Monster with a more reasonable ECL? (Succubus is 12 ECL, Spellwarped is +3 LA but races and templates become much more reasonable with CR.

BTW did I miss anyone elses questions or anything that needs my attention? I try to get everything and do it quickly but every now and then I miss something. (That is why I go back sometimes, sorry for delayed responses.)

I am looking at the character apps so far and not seeing any healers or skill monkeys. I do not know all the ins and outs of 3.5 classes beyond the basics; am I wrong on this?

Should I load up on CLW potions?

[Dieuoffire]

I noticed that too. there are ways to make up for that but you have to go out of your way a little.

[Crimson]

The druid and paladin have some healing options, but some potions would probably be a wise investment.

[arkerpay]

Who is the druid? So far I am tracking:

warrior
paladin
wizard
wizard
totemist/???? (do not have these books, looks like a primary combatant)

A druid would be great for outdoorsy stuff and healing. Still no skill monkey.

Well, that makes one of my concepts much more difficult since totem druid is the primary class of the build. Back to the drawing board...and I think I'll drop one of the melee concepts as well, since we seem to have plenty of tankiness so far.
