DM, is there some levelling-up going on? At this point in my career I don't need many points to make a bard level or two.
There will be, I need to pull everything together and see who made level. I know you did though.Quote:

Not even a typo, just dated.Quote:

So, based on which way others are going, Ithilneth is the better fit class-wise? What're the next steps?
The Red Shield is not a buckler so cannot be used while using a staff as a weapon. It is a small shield though and only has an 18" diameter.Quote:

Weapon choice is a huge one. Where you wish to see your stats prioritized to is another. You will need a high strength and intelligence as a multi-class. It sounds like you want a high dexterity which will also increase armor class and to hit bonuses with bows but add to stealth maneuvers. Of Constitution, Charisma and Wisdom which do you prioritize?Quote:

I'd like to prioritize Ithilneth's attributes this way.
Wisdom 1st, to represent her long years and insight.
Intelligence 2nd, to represent her accumulated knowledge.
Dexterity 3rd, for her nimble fingers and being quick on her feet, but not as much as when she was young.
Charisma 4th, because she is not exceptional in this regard.
Strength 5th, never strong to begin with, age has weakened her.
Constitution 6th, since she is a couple ages old.
If I were assigning stats, I'd pick these numbers: W 15, I 14, D 12, Cha 10, Str 9, Con 8. I'm assuming 10 as the "baseline" level, so I'd adjust everything up if the "adventurer" level is higher.
For equipment, an Elven cloak & boots, plus a long sword & bow would be good. Leather armor (studded?), unless she can have Elven chainmail. No shield. Split skills equally between the sword and bow.
OK I can do this, though age would not affect an Elf's Strength or Constitution. Wisdom is almost a wasted stat in this case but I see where you are going with this. The good news is it is all very doable. Armor will be simple enough, there is a chance for elven chain. Do you wish to use two short swords? Perhaps Short and a long knife? With a high dex and as an Elf this would be a good option for a non-shield user. As you are taking Wisdom as your top stat, I will give you basic herbology skill that goes along with your Elven Lore of plants and cooking.Quote:
Originally posted by Pleonast
Ah, good point about aging not really affecting an Elf's Str or Con. I still do not think of her as having above average in those attributes. For melee weapons, I was thinking more of a long sword. Isn't that the traditional Elf weapon? A dagger as an offhand weapon would work.Quote:
Originally posted by What Exit?
A part of the reason for her high Wisdom is a resistance to trickery and fear. She's seen a lot and is not easily fooled. She feels the call West, and death would simply hasten that journey.
I'm glad you're jumping in, Pleonast. This will be fun.
Well as her strength was not to be high, a slender short or pair of short swords seemed to make more sense in this case. Besides even Legolas relied on Bow and used only a long knife. Long Sword and Short Sword are about the same for usage. There is also a game mechanics advantage. the paired Short Swords or Short and Long Knife would be a single proficiency. Long and Knife would not and have large penalties for use unless your Dex was very high.Quote:

The short sword and long knife pair sounds fine.
When I get some more free time I'll come up with some more background and description.
To everyone looking to start, welcome come and join in the fun.
What Exit? - seeing as this chapter is nearly over, I take it you are going to update everyone's character and get the new one's ready?
To everyone else, do you want to say which of the magic items you want?
Sorry for the delays, I don't think I can get on the computer for any time today. I have been really sick all week. I thought I was getting better and it came back strong today.
Ouch - that's too bad. Take it easy and get well! We're pulling for you.
Get well soon What Exit?
*soothing Elven music*
Back at last, sorry for the long delay. I will try to catch up tonight and deliver a character shortly.
Glad to hear you're feeling better!
I have the first draft of Ithilneth nearly ready for Pleonast and sent a PM with my Email address to eleanorigby & Pleonast to get them to send an Email to me so I have theirs.
Koldanar has PMs off but I believe I have his Email.
If anyone else is interested, please let me know. A few like Sticks expressed some interest but did not follow up so I am not sure.
What exit, sorry, but work got very busy on me (end of month release time), so I've not been keeping up here. I thought I checked my profile to see if there was an option for PMs, but I didn't find it (admittedly, I did just browse quickly). I do / would like a little bit of help building a character, I don't have feats / weapons / etc in front of me from this edition, but I do believe I'll go the clerical route (I just need to decide what deity (hey look more parenthesis)).
No problem, I was largely AWOL last week with a stomach virus. So our timing was good in an odd way.Quote:

Pleonast has her first draft and a very hasty second draft when I realized she needed to start at 5th and not 6th due to XP issues.
I will start working up character experience tonight. There is a significant bonus for many of characters for the voyage on the Elendil. This was a first for all and most had never been to sea at all before.
I think only the Dwarves have not checked in on magic but I think NAF1138 is gone. I'll have to email him soon and find out. Hopefully all is well with his family.
Hoopy Frood should still be around, hopefully he checks in soon.
Heh. Would that be "nasty" or "hasty"?Quote:

Hello, there.
As it seems that I'll be joining this merry band, I'd like to introduce myself.
I recognize many of your screen names from the SDMB, though Elendil's Heir is probably the only one whom I know at all well. And, since he's the one who extended the invitation to join this game, you can all blame him. :)
My real name is Mike; I live in the Chicago area (though I'm originally from Wisconsin). I've been a Tolkien fan since reading LotR at age 12 (which was *far* too many years ago). I've been playing D&D, in its various incarnations, since 1982 (though, it's been 20 years since I played a 1E game). I currently am DMing in three home campaigns, and playing in a fourth campaign (all of those 3.5), and am active in the RPGA, playing a lot of 4E there.
As far as my character for this campaign, in speaking with What Exit?, and looking at the list of the current character list, my initial thought was to create a paladin (likely from Rohan). However, Elendil's Heir has expressed a desire to see another wizard in the party. Honestly, I'd be happy playing just about anything, so I'm curious to hear what other players have to say on the subject.
Looking forward to playing with all of you!
What Exit, I'm pretty sold on a Human cleric of Oromë . If you don't mind, I'd like to work a little on his background through emails (unless everyone else doesn't mind helping me fill in information; I'll come up with what I would like him to be like, but I'd need the Middle Earth names and facts filled in).
You told me that I can specialize in a weapon; I'd like my character to focus on the bow. I'd keep my focus on stats with Agi / Wis being about roughly equal (I am assuming, of course, AGI will affect my bow accuracy, and WIS will affect my spellcasting), with a secondary focus on CON. If there's any other information I would need to include right now, please let me know.
This sounds fine. Wisdom gives the spell bonuses. Dex (Agility is Dexterity in this version) is the bonus to hit with missiles and AC bonuses.Quote:

Did you know which type of human you wanted? Oromë works especially well with the Rohirrim and Beornings.
Just how would you screw up the Quest of the Ring?: http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/...d.php?t=550645
Okay, I have registered at Mellophant, now what?
I guess I should read the thread.
Please do, and jot down any questions as you go. We'll be glad to answer them.
Then read at least the very first page, and the most recent two pages, of this thread.
Welcome aboard, 5 time champ!
We have a fairly wide variety of characters. The classes are basically 1st Ed. Modified as needed to fit the framework of Middle Earth. Is there a class and race you would prefer to play?Quote:
Originally posted by 5 time champ

We only have one new one done (Pleonast) and I will put one together for eleanorigby to use.
I am waiting for feedback from the others interested in playing to create their characters.
Having not seen any dissenting opinions, What Exit?, I'll go with the paladin from Rohan, as we'd originally discussed.
A few more needs.Quote:

We have two Rohirrim in the part now. Do you wish to be a relative like a cousin or avoid that? (This is minor)
Koldanar, I will work up work Cleric of Oromë.
For the record, the two Rohirrim in the party, as What Exit? mentioned, are brothers- Deor, the family's youngest and the party wizard, played by myself, and Theogrim, a paladin, played by One Cent Stamp. You could be a member of the immediate family (I've discussed the eldest brother a little in the storyline already, so he's probably out, but all the rest are free) or you could be a cousin- Deor has an Uncle Aldor, a horse-trader from near Edoras. (Deor's a seventh son of a seventh son, so there's a huge family here.) We know that he has at least one son serving Rohan and Gondor in the cavalry, and he could very easily have another. Or you could invent another relationship entirely. Or you could be no relation at all. Up to you!
With apologies I will be sending out the updates in a single Word Doc. Please do what you need to to review your section of it. This saves a lot of time. I need the time for creating the 3 new characters and shoveling snow tonight. :)
Thanks for everything, What Exit? We know you have a lot on your plate right now.
Being a cousin sounds like a solid plan...gives an instant reason for him being there.Quote:
