As Co-DM I concur with my collegue. Red Wizards are unacceptable.

Now, if you want your character to be dead 5 minutes after encountering the Paladin of Sune, not to mention the Harper

Or the cleric of Torm, or the CG sorcerer with a transplanar obession.

Oh, it is so nice for these things to not be my problem.

Behold the Deathstalker!

I had forgotten the joys of building a pure fighter! Meat shield... I mean death dealer reporting for duty!

Congrats Deathstalker you are a part of the shield wall. And Lorn is huge! Seriously 6'10? You Monster!

Still in progress, but almost there:

Erek, Half-drow Fighter/Rogue

Basically, Erek is a half (well, 1/4) drow troublemaker. He is sickened by the treatment of his human friends and relatives at the hands of the half-drow nobility. He has been robbing local nobles to work out his frustrations and fund a more organized uprising. Unfortunately, a recent robbery went bad and ended with a noble's lifeblood on his sword. He now desperately needs allies before his crime is discovered...

Let me know how much backstory you want (and whether you want it DM-eyes-only). I could go on for pages....

Stormbringer, what is the Legendary Attribute Feat?

I rolled his height and weight and that inspired me to put points into intimidate. The first person who trys to bully one of the parties' mages gets my undivided attention.

Legendary Trait is from Swashbuckling Adventures. It can be applied to any attribute 17+ and it gives you two points in it (effectively +1 for your ability modifier) and the same every six levels there after.

Erm... You couldn't have rolled it. Maximum on the human male height chart is 6'6". I should know, I rolled it once.

frigidmagi · Post by **frigidmagi** » 2004-12-02 02:12am

Who cares, let him be 6'10! Later he can take some GaintKin feats or something!

Halruaans are bigger.

Seriously, the Shining South images put them a full head and shoulders above everyone else.

Why do I have a vision of Gregor Clegane aka The Mountain That Rides from Song of Ice and Fire?

Um... That beats out epic feats for increasing abilities. I was unaware of what that did, exactly...

Will that be a problem?

Post by **Alyrium Denryle** » 2004-12-02 02:17am

Besides, I have SEEN people taller than that

Deathstalker · Post by **Deathstalker** » 2004-12-02 02:18am

Used another system for rolling H and W and age. One of the few things I don't like about 3.5 is the description section dealing with such things.

Every 6 levels I dont think is acceptable. If it is a one-time thing that you can enver take again that only applies in certain circumstances.. then it could work

Stormbringer · Post by **Stormbringer** » 2004-12-02 02:22am

If you want to kill the progression now that would be acceptable to me. I just know that I had looked it up and that it was a nifty feat to take for a theif.

WHat are you taking it in? Dex I presume?

because what I would allow is that it be used for thievery related skill checks.(hide, move silently, pick pockets and the like)

I would have to clear it with the primary DM however

Stormbringer · Post by **Stormbringer** » 2004-12-02 02:24am

Okay, worked out something with Rogue. It stands but it doesn't stack with ability enhancing items.

Okay, if you plan on getting any use out of that heavy warhorse, I recommend the Mounted Combat string of feats and a heavy lance.

Other than that, looks good. Approved.

Yes, Dex.
