General derpery and questions go here.

Unless there are too many objections, the game will be on every other sunday, 19:00 GMT starting next week, unless something comes up(like everyone not having posted their character yet).

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

Evidently since it matters for character creation, where are we starting? I never found out what you decided.

Oh, there we go. Nevermind then.

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

Will we be using pathfinder classes? Also how will the stats be rolled? With die rolling, or a set amount of points to spend on the stats?

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

For both of your questions, see character creation thread. 20 point buy and normal classes, subject to negotiation.

Are Elans okay for a character race?

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

Elan is acceptable, though the character will be different enough to warrant outcast rating.

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

One last quick question. Am I correct in assuming they get darkvision?

Aberrant Blood: Elans are of the (aberrant) subtype.

Humanoids don't get darkvision unless it says so in the creature description, so no.

Oh, and here is a cool site for creating characters. It's character sheets are editable, and will do most of the math for you.

Thanks for reminding me, max HP for the first HD, then half the maximum rounded up after that.

Looks like I won't be able to play after all. 19:00 GMT Sunday is 2pm where I am, and I have a face2face game at 4pm on sundays.

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

For Rathuris and anyone else making a character with multiple classes, how gestalt classes work is detailed here:

WhatisaCaliban.

I can't find stats for one that are updated to be in line with Pathfinder ruurus. Are they miserable little piles of secrets.

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

There's no orcs in Ravenloft for some reason, so the Caliban replaces the half orc. They're sorta mongrelmen sorta dealies. Lots of superstitions about them, no real concrete stuff on the why or where they come about, but seems like there's a chance any kid can be born as one.

Treat their stats as Half Orc.

Read the PHB. They're basically humans that are born mutated by magic/hags/vistani. Generally bigger and tougher than normal humans, but not as smart. Use stats for half-orcs.

Re: The Mists of Ravenloft OOC thread

So, I was snooping around, and I found a change to Crafting that feels a lot more satisfying/realistic. Don't know if Spider wants to officially rule on this or not, but it's here if anyone is interested.
