That being said, if people absolutely hate that "2d6+2 for your next stat if the previous one was 15+" rule, I'll go over to 3d6 for everything. Oh, no, I wasn't whinging because I hated it or anything. I'm just a bit confuzzled about why it was done. I'm totally fine playing it as written.

I'm definitely up for black powder weapon inclusion. The last F20 game I played which featured them, it was the Skull and Shackles Pathfinder arc, and the poor gunslinger had his guns stolen by the shrewd and evil shipmasters and then ransomed by the quartermaster. After he finally won them back, several sessions later, we were stuck swimming a bunch – powder weapons were still impractical. The DM felt bad about letting that player take a character which was based so heavily on equipment which wouldn't be readily available. I'm also up for RAW Black Hack because it sound fucking metal.

OK, so I got a friend request from HyveMynd, but is there something else that I should see in Discord? Or is this server thing not ready yet. So far I got... Zingot the Young (Conjurer)Str: 7 Dex: 10 Con: 9 Int: 14 Wis: 10 Cha: 13 HP: 5 ( rolled a '1') Starting spells: 6 ( rolled a '4') Starting gold: 110 gp A scrawny, short youth, Zingot says he's 16 (but looks maybe 12). He carries a pack that looks too large for him, visibly suffering under its somewhat negligible weight. He carries a wooden staff to help move himself along. Although he looks a child, he speaks with a nuanced tongue that hints of knowledge and education, yet he is good-natured and has a somewhat naive or harmless appearance that makes him friends easily.

Oh, no, I wasn't whinging because I hated it or anything. I'm just a bit confuzzled about why it was done. I'm totally fine playing it as written. Ah cool. That's a relief. I was reading your comment in the wrong tone. Glad it was a mistake. OK, so I got a friend request from HyveMynd, but is there something else that I should see in Discord? Or is this server thing not ready yet. The server is ready, and I've made general, character_creation, and adventure channels. I've just sent you an invite to the server on Discord tomes. Let me know if you don't get it. Zingot the Young (Conjurer)Str: 7 Dex: 10 Con: 9 Int: 14 Wis: 10 Cha: 13 HP: 5 ( rolled a '1') Starting spells: 6 ( rolled a '4') Starting gold: 110 gp A scrawny, short youth, Zingot says he's 16 (but looks maybe 12).

Although he looks a child, he speaks with a nuanced tongue that hints of knowledge and education, yet he is good-natured and has a somewhat naive or harmless appearance that makes him friends easily. Looks good. I'm totally cool with people rolling up and posting their characters here. What tomes has written above is the level of detail I'm expecting.

Areck (Warrior) Str: 15 Dex: 11 Con: 12 Int: 10 Wis: 5 Cha: 13
HP: 10 (rolled a '6') Starting gold: 120gp
Areck is strong, hardy, and charming when he wants to be. However, he also brings a whole new definition to the term oblivious. He's a soldier's soldier. Point him at what you need killed or smashed and rest comfortably knowing that it will indeed be killed or smashed. Under the guidance of someone clever, Areck is a finely tuned, precision weapon. Left to his own devices, or under the influence of someone less... scrupulous, and he could be a menace. At the moment, he's decided that Zingot is effectively his commanding officer. (so long as you're cool with that, tomes)

Shayle Half-Fallen (Warrior) Str: 14 Dex: 10 Con: 3 Int: 13 Wis: 12 Cha: 11 HP: 10 (rolled a 6) Attack Damage : 1d8 / 1d6 Unarmed or Improvising - Once per hour, whilst in combat, a Warrior can regain d8 lost HP.
- As part of their action a Warrior can make 1 attack per level.
- If a Warrior fails a STR or DEX test and would be dealt damage from an attack, they can opt to sunder (destroy) their shield - if they have one equipped - and ignore the damage.
Shayle is a shaggy, sturdily built, nordic-looking man whose prowling gait belies an old injury. Despite an auspicious early career in raiding villages, he suffered a devastating injury which nearly killed him outright. Though he survived, his posture is hunched around a massive scar that runs the length of his indented torso. Despite these shortcomings, he still has a smile which women find endearing and rivals find threatening.

Holy cow chronovore. That is an abysmal CON score, but as tomes said, I love what you build around it.

Hel all. Here's a link to the Black Hack's rule for guns. I'm thinking a gun will cost 50 coins (the same as a ranged weapon) and will suffer disadvantage when shooting at a Close target (again, just like a bow). Just like with every other weapon, the damage die of a gun is determined by a character's class. What do we want to do for Proficiencies? Each class lists the weapons a character is proficient with, and if you aren't proficient with the weapon you're using, you suffer disadvantage on the attack roll. Do we want to lump firearms in with other ranged weapons, meaning only Warriors and Thieves are proficient with them? Or do we want to say technology is ubiquitous enough that everyone is proficient in firearms? I'm fine with either option.

My ambivalence is immeasurable. On the one hand, having limited classes access to them means fewer of them, but not limiting them could theoretically mean EVERYONE can have them.
Then again, giving our Conjurer an option for once his spells run out seems wise.

When are we looking to get started playing? Have you picked a date yet, or are you just waiting for slackers like me?
