Meanwhile, Back in the Dungeon... (Pulp Fantasy-inspired 5E D&D)

[greenknight]

Looking to play a bard of valor or an eldritch knight or an arcane trickster.

EDIT: I will refrain from naming the character Bill (or even Guillaume) Guisarme and speaking in an outra-a-a-ageous accent. But if I do go with the future arcane trickster or bard, he will be well-dressed, almost foppish. And possibly a half-orc, using 17 for charisma if a rogue. For the eldritch knight, I'm leaning toward this fellow, as I already have him built and don't know if I'll get to play him.

Or even this guy for a ranger or fighter

[Chulanowa]

Or even this guy for a ranger or fighter

Everyone loves Herger!

[Chulanowa]

So, update on the pantheon thing - in case anyone wanted to make a cleric at some point. I decided to just make the Forgotten Realms, Greyhawk, and Dragonlance deities all available for use; writing up entire pantheons for each race (and hten some) was.. .getting pretty exhaustive. Maybe if I use this setting again I'll have it all together, but for now? I'm just gonna co the easy way out  ;D

[AndyZ]

I don't think my warlock idea is going to work with this.  If anyone wants that spot, by all means.

Not 100% what I'll make, but I've already got a paladin and a wizard in another game, so not looking for those.

[Countdown0]

Welp, I've got a Wizard.


https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=1180371

Be gentle, he's young for a wizard.

But, contrary to the picture, he has a pointy wizard hat. Because of course he does!

[AndyZ]

Not sure if Hexed is actively planning a Druid or not, and if so, I'll give up the spot and make something else, probably a monk.

Katrianna Tyrannofang - Wood Elf Druid - Outlander - Chaotic Good

HP 11/11 AC 15/17

Strength 11 Dexterity 18 Constitution 16 Intelligence 15* Wisdom 18* Charisma 16

Animal Handling +6, Athletics +2, Nature +4, Perception +6, Survival +6

Drums, Sylvan

Scimitar, Wooden Shield, Leather Armor, Explorer's Pack, Druidic Focus (Ash Wand)

Staff, Hunting Trap, T-Rex Tooth, Traveler's Clothes, Belt Pouch with 10gp

I'm driven by a wanderlust that led me away from home. 
I once ran twenty-five miles without stopping to warn my clan of an approaching Tyrannosaurus Rex pack.  I'd do it again if I had to.
Life is like the seasons, in constant change, and we must change with it.
I suffer awful visions of a coming disaster and will do anything to prevent it.
There's no room for caution in a life lived to the fullest.

Druidcraft, Guidance

Create and Destroy Water, Detect Magic, Goodberry, Healing Word, Speak With Animals



Katrianna comes from the Tyrannofang tribe, far away in the plains where the ancient lizards still lay claim.  To an outsider, such a place is strange and idyllic, dangerous and mysterious but with its own shade of beauty. 

For her coming of age, as happens every year in the harsh cold of winter, all the adolescents were brought forth for the Feast of Fang for which her tribe is known.  Between several of the most talented hunters and everyone helping in whatever way they can, a massive Tyrannosaurus Rex is brought down to provide food for the tribe and to keep the beasts from becoming too numerous throughout the plains.  Everyone who participated is permitted to retrieve a single fang, a reminder that nothing is impossible when many work together for a common goal.

With such an unimaginable place, one might wonder why anyone would ever leave.  Katrianna has only ever been able to explain it that every land fades after many winters, and the world is so large that one can only imagine everything it has to offer.  There's something just as amazing about cities, with so many people bustling about with the perfect grace of ants swarming over an area...even if it's not as beautiful as home.

There's also a lot more to do in new lands.  The major difference between humanoids and animals is compassion, helping to keep others alive when animals would simply die.  While the rules of nature are often necessary, Katrianna never regrets when she can act to help others.

[Chulanowa]

Alright so at the moment, submitted characters are...

Bibliophilia - Ixelshasi, Tabaxi Rogue
Countdown0 - Therengrath, human wizard
AndyZ - Katrianna Tyrannofang, wood elf druid
Greenknight - Gerion, Half-Orc fighter / Unnamed rogue / Picture of Herger the Joyous?

And hinted at but as yet unrevealed...
Kathayan - Tabaxi barbarian? Bard?
Hexed - Druid? Warlock? Wizard?

Plenty of time everyone  ;D I plan on leaving this open until next Tuesday.

[greenknight]

Greenknight - Geiron, Half-Orc fighter (future eldritch knight) / Unnamed rogue (future arcane trickster) / Picture of Herger the Joyous? (bard, ranger or future battlemaster)

Just to clear things up ;D

Of course, I'm totally thinking of possibly making a monk named Hi-fan Lo . You know, to get the most clueless cultural appropriation possible in the truest spirit of the pulps....

[Bibliophilia]

-snickers.-

[Kathyan]

If ya like, I might have images for all of the above.  ;D

Were you talking about me, if so I would love to see those.

Also I'm still struggling to decide and I even gave a thought at other classes, a tabaxi druid sure sounds interesting ^^, but currently I'm leaning towards building a barbarian.

[AndyZ]

I'm a little worried that we're light on healing...

[Chulanowa]

Not a big worry in 5e. You get heal-up opportunities after rests.

[greenknight]

I'm a little worried that we're light on healing...

Not a big worry in 5e. You get heal-up opportunities after rests.

I'm also not opposed to building Herger as a bard going toward valor if the heals are needed.

[Bibliophilia]

Why did no one tell me Netflix brought back MST3K!?

[Admiral J]

I can do healing, if Chulanowa is still accepting characters.  I generally prefer to play clerics.

Chulanowa, this sounds awesome.  Like something I've been looking for for a long, long time.  Let me know?

[Chulanowa]

On yeah man, doors are still wide open

And Kath, yeah, I think I have some catbarian options gonna be a while though long day at work ahead.

[Admiral J]

Awesome!  Just taking care of this while I get my other ducks in a row:

Totally got sidetracked trying to find pictures. :(

But working on a Tabaxi (Think I spelled that right) Warlock of the Archfey pact. Part of a nomad group that was training to be a druid. But during her vision quest it wasn't nature that started talking to her. :)

[AndyZ]

So should we start out knowing each other or no?  I was wondering about attempting to set up some backstory with other folks.

[RedPhoenix]

Oh I thought this was full. Hmmm!

It isn't.  I've been chatting with the GM and I think we're getting close to being full.

[Chulanowa]

Ahem. it's not first-come first serve. I'm gonna consider all characters, and pick six to run with come next Tuesday. So no worries on that end, if peopel want to submit characters, like I said, door's wide open  ;D

AndyZ, might want to aim more for a "general background," and save the team-building for when everyone's on board.

[RedPhoenix]

Okay, I sent a Half-Elf Warlock in. :)

[AribethAmkiir]

Hope I'm not too late to join the party.  :)

Personality
My curiosity is currently fixed on a wizard's secrets
You can't help but pocket interesting objects you come across.

I have different assumptions from those around me concerning personal space, blithely invading others' space in innocence, or reacting to ignorant invasion of my own.
Inquisitive. Everything is new, but I have a thirst to learn.
I'm fascinated by the beauty and wonder of this new land.
I have a weakness for the new intoxicants and other pleasures of this land.

Still can't decide on a picture though

some ideas
