Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2! (On Hiatus)

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

I have given it some more thought and have decided to play a Swordmage instead, a distant relative of my paladin. Any information on starting level/items and setting information?

 

[Hailey Knight]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

I'll bug Julie to post some info tonight on level, items, starting gold, etc tonight.

I will likely play a Shaman then, primarily for healing. Not sure of the race yet, though I'm leaning toward either Goliath or Wilden. I'll imbue Doom's guy with nature's magical gift, which makes sense with his earthen state, and... we'll talk more about details when I get my character figured out. I've got some more tie-in ideas, but we'll have to see what people come up. I think my character will live in the area around Gusto's monastery, so while he knows of her (she stands out), they don't really know each other.

...And more to come!

And for Doom:

His weapons are his fists and is incapable of wearing armor, but for RP purposes and with the DM's permission, I'd like to equip him with a maul rules-wise, but we \"pretend\" he's hitting with his fists. As for armor, I have him equipped with leather armor at level 1, which is just to boost his AC, but in reality he's just got a stone body. If I purchase magical weapons/armor later, I'd like to treat it as enhancements to his stone makeup than actual armor. (For example, if his armor gave him Thunder resistance, it would be more like someone imbued his stone body with Thunder Resistance.) and his Warforged status is just for rules-- I'd like him to be referred to as a golem if possible.

Permission granted.

As excited as we all are for Julie's game, I can't wait to see what happens tomorrow, considering the position we left things at the end of last session.

Dammit, I thought you were getting better at the friendly fire. We're going back down to Normal.

I'll be a just a few minutes late tonight, friends.

 

[doomdragon6]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Awesome game tonight! Adia's transformation was cool, and now Serin finally has her reason for shapeshifting into animals (since she's had the Druid multiclass ability for a while).

Julie: If it's 'kay with you, mind if I RP it up with some journal entries about Serin talking with you about what happened over the next few nights, asking you what it felt like to shapechange into a non-humanoid, what kind of control you exert on your body and where, etc, until she is able to hone her own ability to shapechange until she can control it to transform into animals as well? Also, since Multiclass trained me in Nature, she could glean some nature tips from you as you explain what happens or just in your tales of the forest or your understanding of it, etc.

Now I just need to have her realize she can fly. Wewt.

 

[Hailey Knight]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Just have her transform into a bird as an experiment.

Should be hilarious .

 

[doomdragon6]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Lookie I'm a bird! OH JESUS I CAN FLY

OH JESUS I CAN FALL TOO

FUUUUUUU--

Hope you don't mind me listening in tonight, it sounded interesting.

Heh, I'd have stopped the vampire by killing Aida as soon as I saw her in the ritual circle.

 

[Hailey Knight]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

But she's one of us .

 

[Gusto]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Does anyone else have ritual casting as a feat at all? If not, I'm gonna add those Nature ones to my collection. I already have the Arcana/Religion ones.

 

[Jay]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Clerics get it by default.

 

[doomdragon6]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Loot that I was able to get down:

Cloak of Translocation: When teleport, add +2 to AC and Reflex til end of next turn. Daily Minor - Regain an encounter teleport used this encounter.

The only two that can really use this are Errik and Serin. Errik has his Cape of the Mountebank, which I think he likes. I have the Amulet of Health +1 which I'd be glad to give up.

Thing is, I was wanting to get the Spidersilk Mantle which gives me a Spider Climb of my speed, meaning I can basically just scale walls like a spider.

So that would fill up the slot for both of us, meaning it's not really useful to anyone. So, options:

1) Errik takes it instead of his current item.
2) I take it temporarily and get the Wavestrider Boots instead, which I've been wanting equally as much as the Spidersilk Mantle, and get the Spidersilk thing later. This option also gives somebody an Amulet of Health +1 (+1 Fort, Will, Reflex and Resist 5 Poison), or we sell the amulet.
3) We sell it for 140 gold per person in the party.

Did we find anything else interesting?

 

[Shawn]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Items found at the site.
Ritual Book containing: Snare, Clear the Path, and Fool's Speech.

Another book containing: Undead Servitor, Speak with Dead.

A gold ring with the symbol of a demon on it. Non magical. Worth about 220gp

An ivy necklace with a emerald gem attached to it. Non magical. Adia is calling dibs on it as it's a family heirloom.

A Cloak of Translocation (level 9)

Barkskin Armor (+2) that Adia is keeping.

I am wearing no cape currently, but will give it up to others since I already have decent saves.

 

[Gusto]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

I'd like to keep my cape. I say give Serin the cape for now and she can give the Amulet of Health to someone who doesn't have a neck, like Gaspar.

I have added all the rituals to my collection for the time being. Saryon and/or anyone else who wants one of them, let me know. But I can cast a ritual for free everyday and have a decent stock of reagents so I always kind of figured myself as our group's dedicated ritualist. I'm open to other opinions.

 

[Deschain]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

someone who doesn't have a neck, like Gaspar.

I'm actually just a mobile suit of armor. That's why i never take my helmet off.

 

[HCGLNS]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

But she's one of us .

Which is why she would be happy you gave her a warriors death instead of becoming an undead slave to Ellioth (vampire). You can always raise her from the dead later.

Heh, squirrel swarm.

 

[Deschain]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

You can be the new Kratash, seeing how I'm not doing a very good job at it.

 

[Hailey Knight]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

We need to get our bearings straight so we can get a chance to tell Gaspar who we are and what's going on.

 

[Deschain]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Oh that's right. I do suppose in all the excitement of smiting evil and calling down divine justice I've forgotten to ask who you all are. My assumption was that you were lost orphans on a field trip.

 

[doomdragon6]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Well we need things to settle down a bit before any of that can happen.

ADIA'S A VAMPIRE

FUCK IT'S EURIC

WHERE ARE WE

ELF HUNTERS!

HUNTED!

HE'S NOT THE HUNTER

OH CRAP IT'S HER BROTHER

FERIEL!?

THEY'RE ALL DEAD

FUCK A MIST

SHIT, EURIC!

THE CUBE GIVE HIM THE CUBE!!!

A PORTAL TO SOME UNKNOWN LAND??? FUUUUUUU---

 

[Gusto]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Agreed. We'll explain everything when we're sure the universe isn't about to chew us up and spit us into oblivion.

It's a work in progress but it's far enough along that you guys can start joining up.
http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/halforums
I'm going to start using this page for game updates instead of posting on the forums. When you guys login and join you'll be able to add your own characters. At least I assume so... Well it's an experiment so we'll see how it goes. What I like about it is you can add pictures for characters.

[Shawn]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

It will be indeed interesting. I think this one is going to be a little more on the lighter/humorous side than the last chapter.

 

[doomdragon6]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Did we decide who wanted the cape? Like I said, I plan on getting something else soon, so.. yeah.

I can take it temporarily, we can sell it, or someone can equip it for the +2 to defenses.

 

[Jay]

Shawnacy's 4E D&D Game, part 2!

Saryon doesn't have a cape I believe. What does it do again?

 

[doomdragon6]
