D&D 5e : Gasrath is not just another city : the OOC Thread.
« on: September 12, 2014, 09:32:22 am »

[IC thread link]



Plot introduction :
You are part of an adventurers group recruited by a cartographers guild and the guards of Helmsdale, capital of the region of Damara. Attacks have been reported in the northern villages, and guards can't take care of it, as a war is coming. Your primary mission is to provide help to the villagers, and guide those who want to the town of Gasrath, where you will be able to re-map the surroundings and the natural cave networks. You will be joined at Gasrath by a group from the cartographers guild a week after you get there, as they found a new Hall of the maps there.
[more coming]



Basic things :
We're playing by the 5e rules, using the Player's Handbook, and the free PDFs available there.
Player list (6/6 max) :
 - My Name is Immaterial : Peren Naïlo, Wood Elf Shadow Monk
 - Varee : Sylla, Dwarf barb/druid
 - InsanityIncarnate : Harold Phillips, Half-Elf Warlock
 - BFEL : Red Mourndawn, Human Valor Bard

I think I've forgotten many other things, but I've got to stop here for now, so don't hesitate to post here, and say what you want :D

Just to confirm, you do have the PHB, correct?
Also, what's our starting level?

I have the PHB, yeap.

You start at lvl3, any class or multi-class you want.
Feats are OK, variant humans are OK. Drows are not, and I'd prefer to avoid Tieflings, dragonborns, and half-orcs (at least uncivilised ones).
If you want to create your own charater, use the 27-points-buy methods, and the half-die rounded up everywhere you have to use a die. Except for money, where you get full dice, to reflect the level 3 gains.
And of course, for traits/bond/flaw, you can choose them or create soem yourself, as most are pretty caricatural.

I'm writing this one on myth-weavers.
There is no auto-calculating whatsoever :(


@Varee : here is your sheet : http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=30101
Myth-weavers is in beta for the sheets of 5e, and there isn't a public spell list for now. I'll try and see what I can do about this.

I've settled on a Wood Elf Monk. 45 ft speed FTW.

Need help to build the Character ?
Which tradition (aka Jet li, Avatar-styled bender, or ninja) ?

No, I'm good.
Way of the Shadow/Ninja/Sneaky bastard.

I'm right now working out my background. Could I use the Spy variant of Criminal, take the Military Rank Feature from Solider and replace Deception with Athletics?

I've been interested in seeing what 5e has to offer. Reserving a spot.

First draft of my sheet. Still trying to figure out what I'm missing and also need to flesh out the character a little more, but otherwise I think I've done well with this fairly confusing handbook.
