Well, you already know my answer, so assuming Phaedrus, Agita and Nanshork don't mind start making a character :)
Just need a reason for you to be in this neck o' the woods (quite literally :P) all alone at a time like this and for wanting to take down some gobbos :)


You could always play the redneck woodsman Jorr ofcourse :lol

Or he could be one of Jorr's buddies/relatives, who just happened to come by for a drink/some chili/etc. :D

Neither do I. With that, Nanshork is outvoted no matter what he wants. :P

It's a two-thirds majority, even, which would be enough to change the constitution in some places (three-fourths if you count Bowen, but he has veto power too).

As for the Diplomacy/party face question in the character creation thread, it'll come in handy in 1 or 2 situations later on in the adventure, but that's about it. So while it might be worthwile to put some points into it, a focused diplomancer is by no means necessary, especially when considering stuff like aid another and those single use skill-boosting spells and whatnot.

I have some points in it for flavor, so I can make small checks (DC 15) by taking ten. With a few Aid Anothers, I can easily make DC 20. Would that be enough?

You're welcome. :P

Venn and I also have a few points in it, as seen recently in the thread. I guess we could all start talking at the same time, and roll our checks independently. As long as someone hits the DC, it should work, right? :P

So we'd basically play politics? :P

Just a quick FYI, I'll be without a PC for a couple of days starting tomorrow (hopefully I'll have it back before the weekend, but I can't promise anything).
I hope you guys have decided on your next move by then ;)

Ok... I am super fucking excited about this, even though it is fairly minor, and I didn't come up with it myself. I'd like to trade in Kalal's full plate for a bunch of Shapesand, which he will then shape into fullplate. This will have the advantage of being cheap, and allowing him to don/remove his armor as a standard action. :D (Or change his armor type, like turn his full plate into a chain shirt, if he wants to try being sneaky.)

Would you mind if I did this retroactively? So I can start using it immediately, instead of waiting till I could actually find and buy some of this stuff?  :bigeye I think it certainly fits him thematically, also. He is a desert dwarf, who escaped imprisonment from monsters in the desert. :D

The description is also a bit vague. How many "jugs" would I need to shape a set of fullplate out of this stuff? It says 1 jug is 100 gp, and that it weighs 12 lbs. But how much of that is the shapesand, and how much is the jug?

The PHB lists an empty one-gallon clay jug at 9 pounds.

Yeah, I know. And the volume of 1 gallon is ridiculously small (0.134 cubic feet). Going by the jug listing, and just using weight, it would take 17 "jugs" of shapesand to make one set of full plate (50 lbs divided by 3). But how do we know the jug used for shapesand is clay? Maybe it's glass? Or maybe the "jug" is just the shaped shapesand?

The amount of stuff you can control is also listed in "X foot cubes", which going by the example means exactly what it says (not cubic feet). That means someone with a 16 Wis could control a block of this stuff that's 7 and a half feet on one side, which is massive. This item is somewhat vaguely written, but I'd really like to use it, as it is cool as hell. :P

I also wanted to get my hands on some shapesand, since it's flavorful for yamanu's race and because he's got a great Wis score. :)

Well.... shapesand is all nice and good, but what about our next move? What will we do? We have until Bowen gets back to decide how we die what we will do....

Personally, I don't think any kind of ambush will work...
