Maybe the host should give a total number of points to distribute.
Of course no 3s in areas you don't need.

@ blueguy

its ok, u can lower, it doesn't really matter as all the gets changed is the spell effects, and not by much. super high isn't important and lowering will improve.also, there are these little +/- by the stat, which lets u lower and raise so u can lower the int/wis/cha of a dwarf and raise his str/con/dex, so u don need a dwarf /w 16 int and 6 dex.

@melondar
while a archer is ok, we need a mage as we have a cleric and thief, and enough fighters.

I don't want them to feel limited.Besides a char can pretty much have all 9's and still succeed. I'm trying to steer away from "power-gaming" and focus more on fun. If we have deficencies, it encourages team work, in that we will work out pre-battle strategies and everyone will have a part. It is a lot more fun when a combo attack is pulled off /w the cleric buffing the guys, the fighters rushing, the mage breaches the casters, and the thief backstabs the other mage. If a 19/18/19/3/3/3 half-orc berserker rushes in and just slaughters everyone, its less fun for everyone else and gets real boring real fast.

So just take that into consideration. The point of this is for everyone to have fun. However, don't take this the wrong way and try to make ure character deficient. Just look at it in the way that ure char should specialize in 1 or 2 stats, and have the others not so high, like people. A thief is dextrous and can be quite strong and healthy. due to his profession he should be wis and intelligent and may be charismatic. that could work out to 16/18/15/13/14/11.

13 STR
19 DEX
14 CON
10 INT
14 WIS
14 CHA

if u plan on using long bows, u should have a higher strenght, as most require 18 or above, unless u plan on using a belt.

@ blueguy

don forget if u have a low dex, u can always use the gauntlets if u want, and ull be wearing full plate most likely. and if ure gonna be dwarf i suggest going for berserkers cause the rage gives u mad nice bonuses and resitances.

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:27 pm

sorry about that confusion... his strength was 18/06... i didnt mean his dx was 6

and uhm... what about normal good rolls? i got a 91 on a half orc bu i didnt htink youd take it.... so i think its gone now

hehe ive made tons of chars since then...its probably long gone

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:33 pm

yeah i have a half-orc with a mad mad roll... hes lookin like 19/15/18/16/11/12

thats right, a half orc with 16 intelligence

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:34 pm

uhm... i dont know... what does dexterity do for a fighter?! and does wearing big ol clumsy armor lower anything? like i said im new

DrSlikk · Post by **DrSlikk** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:34 pm

hey n/p, but like i said it is a better role playing experiences when the chars lack in some areas, plus it makes it fun to play.

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:42 pm

i think i finally made one i really like... strong but not too strong... pretty smart and not bad lookin'

Daalsymr, Human Berserker

18.38/16/17/14/9/11

DrSlikk · Post by **DrSlikk** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:45 pm

sounds good, keep him ready.

what i need now is the day and time when u guhs are availabe to work out a schedule.

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 8:53 pm

well i have the next.... 7 hours free, i dont have anything important in school like exams (you picked kind of a bad time, its crunch week for studying) but alot of my diet has caffene in it and i need surprisingly little sleep. ever.

im guessing more than half of our group is gone elsewhere though... i might be having a party on the weekend, but if im not id be free for .... 48 hours

DrSlikk · Post by **DrSlikk** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 9:01 pm

I guess im in a similair situation, due to the ending of the school year. but im sure we can work something out on weekends.

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Wed Jun 05, 2002 9:07 pm

also, the end of the year means parties (like mine, im known for my parties

) and other gatherings, mostly for school... eg: tonight i was gone for athletics awards... i was hoping id get the Jr. boys rugby award but it went to my buddy (on the very last game he got bashed in the face, his jaws broken

but hell be fine)

WOO! exalted member! booya!

Melondar · Post by **Melondar** » Thu Jun 06, 2002 6:00 am

Yes, I planned on using longbows.
I could take 5 pts from something and put them into strength so I can use composite bows though
But, if you need a mage, Ill roll up a sorceror. I dont like specialty mages.

Melondar · Post by **Melondar** » Thu Jun 06, 2002 6:05 am

Okay, no archer then: instead, a Chaotic Neutral Human Sorceror:
8 STR
18 DEX
7 CON
18 INT
15 WIS
9 CHA

Sound good?

gnomethingy · Post by **gnomethingy** » Thu Jun 06, 2002 11:13 am

Lawfull neutral fighter / cleric

17
15
15
11
17
9
Profs in staff / two handed weapon

Chaotic Nuetral Necromancer

9
12
15
18
17
16

Foul stats... methinks for both, oh well... which is better?

DrSlikk · Post by **DrSlikk** » Thu Jun 06, 2002 12:47 pm

@ Melondar
I suggest raising your con to get more hp's and saving throws

@gnomethingy
If melondar is gonna be a mge, should be the cleric. your other idea was fine, ln preist of helm, and u wuold lvl up faster with a true class. and for ure necromancer take some points off his char and raise his dex.

blueguy · Post by **blueguy** » Thu Jun 06, 2002 1:26 pm

so is this all coming together now? should i make something other than my berserker in case you decide he isnt necessary? or should i just bide and wait for the ip addy
