Rules
1. Do I really need rules? Follow the site guide lines.
2. If unsure ask your DM and fellow players. They might surprise you with how helpful they are.
3. If your ever uncomfortable with a subject being covered, feel free to bring up.
4. The fun rule. Have it.
5. Keep post clean, we don't need formatting everywhere, unless it makes comprehension easier.
6. Die checks will be made on request of your DM. If you wish to do something that you believe requires a roll, just ask. I'll only force checks when there is both a possibility of failure, and successes.
7. Nat 20s are not auto-pass, and nat 1s are not auto-failure. Please keep this in mind.
8. As for post length, shoot for at least a paragraph when describing your actions. Clarity is key. Mid-conversation on the other hand doesn't have any such rules, one line if need be to speed it up. If two of you walk off to have a private conversation and no one follows it might be best to have it in PMs, then have one person post the log in a single post.
9. If you don't have your character do something, it didn't happen. If you post that you did do something, it happened.
If you feel your character would have known better after making a obvious mistake roll a INT save. DC 10. On a pass you actually remembered to do the thing (such as grabbing your backpack while in a rush), or get to edit your post (after saying/doing the thing you were just told not to say/do).
10. I reserve the right as DM to change the above at whim and will. YOU reserve the right to be informed immediately, and formally complain. If you guys agree to disagree with me, I'll submit. That easy.
OPTIONAL
11. If you have Discord, add me.

And a resevered for everything else I forgot.

So there won't be a specific thread for characters?

Sweet thread, thanks~!
Vanira

Looking forward to seeing everyone's characters!
Idea
The Pun Tyrant
Likewise!
On that note, if anyone wants to connect backstories, the offer is still open! Me and
JennaBenna
already had a little chat about this in fact XD

Fighterman, fighterman, fights whatever the fuck he can~
Idea
The Pun Tyrant
My character concept is that of a paladin who used to fight as a common soldier in a paladin corps for a certain kingdom. However, after his town or his family is attacked by an evil entity, he goes around adventuring with his daughter in order to let her experience a world of fighting by his side, so that she may grow up to avoid the same fate as his wife.
Edit: the character will actually multiclass into a wizard due to their loss of faith in the ways of a paladin. Maybe.

That's a really cool concept, and would totally take you up on your offer although I have to admit my creativity in those sorts of things is a little lackluster.
My concept is of a warlock who started off her career is a simple bar maiden for an unnamed-as-of-yet tavern. With rent being high and the pay low she had to resort to schmoozing up to rich patrons and blackmailing those with dirty little secrets to get ahead. She gained the admiration of the wrong person. With no one willing to help find the identity of the secret admirer, it ended with her friend being killed and her leaving in fear. Not the type to survive in the wilderness she was left on death's door. "Miraculously" she lived and began to travel around in hopes to become stronger and, maybe, one day get revenge.

WHat would you say is your character's personality like?
Vanira
The Void Prophetess
She's an introvert pretending to be an extrovert that has a weakness for the hedonistic lifestyle. Has always cared for her friends but since she lost her best friend she will do almost anything to protect those she cares about and their happiness. If people do horrible things then they deserve what is coming to them. Any free time she had she spent in the libraries and is a secret book-loving nerd but won't tell others about it. Overall a nice person that is willing to get down and dirty to do what is necessary for herself and those she cares about. Even if it's not the right or smart thing to do (as with her pact with her patron).
Idea
The Pun Tyrant
Does the pact with her patron have any implications in her behavior you are willing to share?
Vanira
The Void Prophetess
Unfortunately that is still being worked out between the Priest and I! To my knowledge right now, not particularly but again I'm working out all the little details like that.

The Pun Tyrant
Ok, one last question, do you have a discord? I find it easier to have a conversation there. If you don't we can just talk here no problem, just a preference.

#BlackLivesMatter
Reading some stuff online, I'm a bit tempted to tweak Fighterman into a pirate running away from his problems... like child support, or something.
Yourdarkpriest
Does that seem plausible in your setting?

One guy running from child support
another a father currently bringing his child along
I smell conflict in the air XD
Vanira

Yes I do! I'll PM it to you.

Did you take a look at the rogue? They have a subclass call the swashbuckler.
welian
#BlackLivesMatter
I have not! I've also spent the better part of a minute trying to remember the word for "land pirate".
EDIT Also just wanna say that my heart isn't yet set on anything n particular, I'm still getting a feel for what my options are.
Vanira
The Void Prophetess
If you want to take a look at rogue Here's the swashbucker. Yo can still get what you want with fighter, but I thought you might like this too. It's official content from sword coast, a supplement for 5E.

Okay, everything is updated. I think...
That said, PM me your characters as you finish them. Add me on discord if you want, my user name is in the rules.

General Update.
Removed 16+ stats cost 3 points. They now cost 2.

Since going over 15 (which as far as I am aware is normally going over 16, but I may be misrembering) costs 3 points, would going below 8 give additional points as well (as in give 2 points instead of 1)

Edit: oops, this was terrible timing for this question lol. Nevermind.
