My sheet is ~86% done, just waiting to have a sneak peek at others before I make some final decisions like languages, feel free to let me know if I made any mistakes as far as rules go.

Probably going to be another day before I finish my character sheet. I am looking to make him more melee oriented than originally planned. Right now he is a bit of a glass cannon, so I need to work out a few things to fix that.

[aerondor]

I think we are all a little fragile - but that is part of the fun of being level 1.

Always one blow off dying.

[kenardX]

Haha, you guys and galls are great. I'll take another day at least too, for the sheet. Have to be considerate of the other rogue

[aerondor]

Heck, I've got a sheet up, but still toying up making some changes. In particular changing out river rat for maybe magical knack or something. Not that I necessarily expect him to take sorcerer levels, but he might one day, and it agrees with his other trait a bit better. Or something else entirely.

If you jump into the main thread we can get posting ic anyway.

[okashii]

@aerondor Your character sheet is so sneaky that I can't even view it ;]

[kenardX]

Hey RMP, I have another questionr egarding sheets:
Will we be using the "young characters" adjustment or consider them to having just reached adulthood and therefore having no adjustments?

[RainbowMagicPen]

Nah, age-wise they're considered adults it's just culture-wise that they're "kids". Unless you wanted to, in which case knock yourself out.

[okashii]

@Hound Would it be possible for you to train Gohei to carry the ceremonial lantern? Considering the amount of his hit points, he's the one most likely to return alive

[Foxtrot]

So I am in a bit of a quandary and would like some opinions. I am going to use a two-handed weapon primarily and am leaning towards a BFS although the idea of a scythe is kind of interesting in a flavor type of way. However, I kind of like the Nodachi (Big long katana type of sword), but I wonder if it would be more practical to just go with a Greatsword. I like the aesthetic value and uniqueness of the Nodachi and that is really the only reason I am thinking about it over the Greatsword. I have to use a Feat for any two handed weapon I choose, so I would like to know if you all think it would be worth it to go with the Nodachi or not considering I probably won't find many at the corner market and upgrading this type of weapon might be difficult.

[okashii]

I don't have much experience with melee weapons, but on paper Greatsword looks like a better choice:
- Slightly cheaper
- Available
- Higher minimal and maximum damage

True, the Nodachi has a better crit range, but criticals only matter when they happen which is rarely and if you are lucky to confirm them.

Edit: I take it back, the Nodachi gives a bonus to knocking Jasper off his pony

[Foxtrot]

While knocking Jasper off his high horse is an intriguing prospect and perhaps even something that might be necessary at some point, I think I will just go with the Greatsword due to all of the points you made and even a few others I've considered. I can always switch to a nodachi somewhere down the road.

Anyway, I'll get a post up tomorrow sometime that has a vague reference to a large sword on Lucien's back in case I change my mind at the last minute. No matter what I'm looking forward to writing with you all. Especially since I'm playing a character that is very unlike the type of character I normally do. Far less charismatic and talkative. So this will be quite the fun challenge for me.

[kenardX]

Talk charismatic. I don't know how I'm gonna play Annea. She's more likely to run away, while her "sister" will probably liberate you of most of your belongings

[RainbowMagicPen]

I feel you Kenard. Malva is like 100% opposite of the characters I usually play, writing her dialogue is surprisingly difficult.
