Avraham. As previously mentioned, ANY character is fine. Just sooner is better. :)
@GeneCortess I submitted it last night. You don’t see it??

Avraham. LOL. The system doesn't warn me about new characters applied. I have to check. And I don't do that all the time either. I see it now and looking it over.

Avraham. LOL. Your items area is so complicated. I have approved your character and will soon be in play. Need a spot to track your casting. Like slots used and those available.

Avraham. Above is an example of your items written clearly with weights & location. a trinket. Vestment isn't much for clothing.

* Gear: Maximum class cash, trinket, Packs may be purchased but will be broken down. Pay attention to carrying device limits. Attached sacks to backpack are fine. State where all items are. Clothing is expected with armor and is worn under the armor.

Please redo your items area.

I was extremely careful to stay within capacity and weight limits for all containers—I sat with the PHB and a calculator for an hour :)—so I hope that is not the issue. What I understand is that I am missing 1) a trinket and 2) at least one non-ecumenical change of clothes. I will address that and ping you when done. Thanks!

@GeneCortess, I have updated the character item area to include an apropos trinket, worn clothing, and three changes, stored in appropriate containers, gold and weight updated. I have also split the items section into two columns; the second of which now has a spell-slot table with checkboxes. I'll use the convention that unchecked means available and checked means used.

Please review for compliance. Also, just in case, some of the feats and all of the spells have expandable notes for reference. Thank you, and looking forward to being dropped into the hot zone :)

Working through my inventory...

A question about the Crystal arcane focus - the PHB says it weighs one pound. Going off what crystals are like on Earth, would this have to be something the size of a fist? Or could it be something smaller, like a pendant on a piece of jewelry that you take into your hand when casting a spell?

@exca314, quartz has a density of roughly 1.34 ounces per cubic inch. Which would make one pound of quartz crystal roughly 12 cubic inches, or a cube slightly less than 2.3 inches per side. That's about half a fist size, roughly, I'd reckon.

If you need smaller, you can use flourite, which has a density of roughly 1.84 ounces per cubic inch requiring the volume of a cube 2 inches per side.

If that is still too large, you can try a cabochon of domykite (image below) which should be roughly 4.42 oz per cubic inch, requiring a volume of 3.6 cubic inches or a cube 1.5 inches per side.

Hope that helps.

exca314 & Avraham. The intent of the arcane focus crystal was to be a rather large crystal. Think about a golf ball and you're getting in the area. Crystal can be on a chain or embedded in an object.

That size makes sense to me - I like those ideas for its location!

exca314. Be great to see what you have. :) Avraham. PC is in play.

Avraham. When you get a chance, please put something in the Character Description Area so other players can ID you in a quick check. Browse that and you can see the other two guests.

@GeneCortess, Done.

I have updated the Map now. It is set for combat and what you normally have in your hands. If that needs to be changed, then let me know.

You know, at this point Davros kinda begins to want to derail the whole thing and go with the bandits.... With the whole how much trouble the orcs are.... I mean if an army doesn't bother to deal with them... What would 3 ppl do??
Aug 16, 2024 6:39 pm
Of course I'm not planning on doing any derailing without the rest of the party agreeing and approval of GM.
(This is just my POV of the situation FYI, before anyone here jumps into conclusions.)
Aug 16, 2024 6:43 pm
Bubbles. That isn't derailing. That is how to transform your PC into an NPC. Hense removal from the game. That of course is your option.

It is way too early in the game to surmise the future. Apparent at this junction of time, the party is captured. Which by all appearances is part of the running game as it was unavoidable. This is obviously a roleplaying portion.

Where can we find the map? It's not in the thread labeled "Maps".
