This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Rasesisk Salasar

Background

The middle son of a settled Rakastan noble, Rasesisk (for short Rask) is a romantic idealist. since being a small cub he has longed for adventure and intrigue but finds himself under the suprisingly rigid guardianship of his father. As a second son he was expected to join the military with a commission and has been trained extensively in the martial arts to this purpose. However, Rask longs to live a more varied life than a minor officer in a local garrison. He longs in truth to be an Honourbound and to live the romantic life of a wandering nomad mercenary. He has even secretly presented himself to the local Honourbound garrision but was rejected due to his impatience and lack of discipline.

Like all rakasta he believes they are a superior race but this is further exasberated by his noble privileged background.
For all his expensive upbringing Rask is rash and rather naive and easily manipulated.

Looking like a druid to me :)

We aren't using the Grid Method to generate Ability Scores; we're using 4d6-L six times.  Please use this page to roll stats.

Also, the Savage Coast Campaign Book is online and it has what you need to know about Proficiencies and Kits.  See Chapter 2 for this information.

As always, feel free to ask any questions either here or via PM. :)

I don't mind one low score, but two is a bit much :(

Still, he'll be a little extra squishy for a wizard, but it's doable.

Might switch out Int and Con, although a druid has never come across to me as a guy who's a little slow...

Don't want to make Cha a dump stat, but might hafta

Inv Castle doesn't seem to want to let me switch them after saving, but would it be ok to?

Quote from: Drohem;548088See this post, specifically #6, to get the link for rolls.  

Are you cool with playing this character?  If not, I'll delcare it Hopeless and you can roll again. :)

I am fine with it. I have had worse and intend to prove some people wrong about characters with a low stat (now watch me die in the first five minutes:))

I have the complete bard and would like to use a kit from it (not sure which yet). Is that okay?

OK, cool.  It depends on your race and the bard kit; run it by me. :)

The Curse claims another victim!

But good to have you onboard Sigmund.

Bloody Stupid Johnson

Quote from: Drohem;548100That particular red steel dagger will cost him 40  large (GP)!  It made its way back to Rockhome only through a great  journey and the owner won't part with it for anything less.

'Alas, tis a great sum for a humble scholar, what with the cost of ink and such these days, but pray give me some time and I'll see what I can do...'

(breaks piggy bank - he'll buy the dagger instead of the light crossbow, and go to bed dreaming of fame, fortune, and perhaps some beard combing by hot elf loremasters).

Gonna arrange the stats to..

STR: 7
DEX: 12
CON: 12
INT: 16
WIS: 15
CHA: 8

He'll be a grey elf, so the stats are adjusted now. I see the ability minimum for cha for druid is 15, so I'm making this feller an elf wizard, which is gonna leave us a touch light on the healing front.

Edit: Re-adjusted his stats and have decided to make him a mage, no specialty. Is the Academician kit available? His Weapon prof will be dagger, but not completely solid on the non-weap ones yet.

Would like him to have Sleep as his spell...
