Wood Elf

• Elf Weapon Training. You have proficiency with the longsword, shortsword, shortbow, and longbow.
• Darkvision. Accustomed to twilit forests and the night sky, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
• Fey Ancestry. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put you to sleep.
• Trance. Elves do not sleep. Instead they meditate deeply, remaining semi-conscious, for 4 hours a day. The Common word for this meditation is "trance". While meditating, you dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually mental exercises that have become reflexive after years of practice. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit a human would from 8 hours of sleep.
• Fleet of Foot. Your base walking speed increases to 35 feet.
• Keen Senses. You have proficiency in the Perception skill.

History: Kedryn was trained in a remote and isolated elven society. They elves of the Khaladri Forests have cultivated its lands for centuries. They live in smaller tribes of elves which migrate throughout the forest, careful not to over hunt and gather one area too much. The Khaladri elves protect their domain with lethal force if an outsider disrupts the balance of the forest.

Kedryn learned how to move through and read the signs of the wilds. His training began at age 15 and did not officially end until his 80th year. During that time the young elf’s body and mind were honed into deadly form. He was trained how to use his body and inner focus to great efficiency, as well as how to be closer to nature. How to cultivate berry bushes along forest trails, maintain the health of the forest while also guiding to to be beneficial to the elves, and how to hunt and move through the forest while leaving hardly a trace.

In recent decades his people’s lands have been repeatedly encroached upon by the nations nearest the forest. Often sought to exploit the land that the elves had tended to and cultivated for centuries. The Khaladri elves used swift blades and druidic magic to hold back the invading people.

Over the decades their people have dwindled from the frequent skirmishes and battles with foreigners. Kedryn could see the toll this defense was taking on his people. He knew he could only do so much for his people as a direct defender. He had to find another way for them to defend their lands. So he was tasked to find a way to help his people. To search the land for some artifact, knowledge, or ally who could lend aid.

**Edit: I updated with the history and fixed a couple things I forgot to pick.

[Chulanowa]

Well I spent all that time picking Wizard spells, just for Mythweavers to be down when I tried to save. So that's fun.

[Muse]

In regards to the ritual casting; Rummy is taking a feat to be the ritual caster. Wizards have that ability within their own spell list.
I will allow you to have that many additional wizard spells in your spell book

Do i have to pay for them?  :) 

[StryxRiver]

I think you do. 50 gold per level of the spell. Materals (Pen/ink/etc)

[Muse]

*nods*  :) T hank you.

Here is what I have so far. I would like to do more with my equipment, but I need to head to bed because I have to get up in 3 hours. Very sorry I'm not 100% finished. I will get this done ASAP

[Kimera]

Last minute questions, but for HP do we roll or take average or max?

[Kimera]

Looks like a good male-female ratio :p

Wonder if it would be worth to drop base charisma and strength to 8 and then being able to raise base dex from 14 to 15, opening up the option for a +1 dex feat, either athlete or acrobatics or nimble squatter from xanathar book.

Netto - 1 to charisma skills and save but benefits of 1 feat.

[Zaer Darkwail]

Last minute questions, but for HP do we roll or take average or max?

I used the standard format; max first and then average + 1 + con mod for HP.

[tobisquestion]

Yeah I'm a little confused about what we're doing for HP. I rolled (and got 6 points over average), but I see our gnome wizard has gone for the maximum possible HP. Thought it was odd to see a wizard with over 100!!

[Vreski]

I was confused about what to do for HP too. I got a bit of time now before the new years party I'm going to, so I'm going to attempt to quickly get my equipment sorted out.

[Zaer Darkwail]

I used the average HP which is standard for level ups. Anyways may do bit adding stuff to background but my sheet is done as it is.

[StryxRiver]

Rolled HP is best!

[Dreaming Space]

My sheet is finalized as of the version in post 79. Images etc. added.

[Vreski]

I believe my character is finished!    I edited my post. I may buff up my backstory some though.

[Vreski]

Oh yeah! This is where I got my prices for things: https://www.kassoon.com/dnd/5e/magic-item-prices/

Are those the correct prices?

[Zaer Darkwail]

Rolled HP is best!

Ok, I go roll then :).

Oh yeah! This is where I got my prices for things: https://www.kassoon.com/dnd/5e/magic-item-prices/

They look same as in here; http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?424243-Sane-Magic-Item-Prices

[Xunthrae]

I was wondering if I could swap out the rogue's Thieves Cant for Druidic instead. Also, do you want everyone to roll for hp? I just wanna check before i go do it 

[Chulanowa]

And there we go. Spells and items listed for Penny. Yay for flutterboots!

[Muse]

If we roll HP do we get to rorll ones? 

[Muse]

Check me. 

History wise, this story is set in the Realms, but we're going to an "of the maps" continent? 

Flute's sheet is complete.  i'ts in a google document so i'm not posting it in the public portion of the site.  If anyone wants to see, please PM me. 

I'll be tweaking the history for the Realms and sending a new copy to Stryx.   

[Zaer Darkwail]

Added bit more to my charsheet post, naughtier adventurers in spoilers (warning; most links are NSFW).

[Kimera]

Rolled HP for my char and edited it into the sheet.

[Vreski]

Roll Result: Vreski rolled: 13d12, adding 82 to the total
Comment: HP
Result: 6, 6, 7, 6, 4, 9, 5, 10, 9, 9, 1, 3, 1,
Total: 158

Here is my HP rolled

[Kimera]

@vreski: I think that amulet of health only gives a +4 mod with 19 con?
