Post by Elm »

Now I have been playing AD&D for about 8 years now and I am now 19 years old and have a slew of awesome characters. I recently just made two characters who are biological twins.

One is Karissa. She is a Celtic Anti-paladin/Assassin.
5'2'' , 170 lbs (I know shes a chunky one lol).
24 Years of age, she has the strength of a demon and the dexterity of a cat.

How should I play her? I don't know whether or not to have her be brute force in plate or play her as her other class as a stealthy assassin.

The other character.

Luther. She is a celtic Anti-paladin/Assassin.
6'0'', 145 LBS (skinny)
24 years of age, has ogre strength and the dexterity of a cat.

Same question about Luther that I asked about Karissa.

I usually only play assassins/ninjas/thieves/fighters/paladins, so you would figure that I should know but I am not certain as to which way I should bring these two.

Did you take in mind that the more armor you get, the less you benefit from dexterity?

Yes I have, I am an experienced player I know the pros and cons of most things in the game.

I was think thinking that these two could be brute force hitmen as assassins or just sneaky but I guess I will just go with the flow.

you should use them but one of them be an assassin and the other the brute force that way you can have both the benefits and i have an assassin and use him for both brute force and sneaking his strength is 27 and his dex 22.
use Karissa as the brute force and Luther as the sneak

2 brute assassins could work together as "honourable assassins", where they engage the enemy in an open fight, 2 to 1, still, but no use making it an equal fight

they can just circle the target, one actualy fighting, the other studying for the death stroke. or one could actualy hold the guards off while the other engages the target
