planning Looking for a Courage is Magic group

[Concerto Dusk 240]

Can someone try to email me the rulebook or something? And as far as thebgroup thing I guess hangouts aint working. Lemme check tho i didnt get a notification.

Well I finally figured out google+ on my phone. However I did not get a measage, sorry man.

[purple.teal 50]

I have sent an email to @ with the attachment of the 1.17 rules. 

 

Those who are unsure of how to create a character, give me an archtype they want and I can guide them through the creation process.

[Concerto Dusk 240]

Ok. I got the rules. Thanks for that. I am looking them over as we speak.

Am i the only one who didnt get the text thing?

[Lighting Star 93]

Well I'm in the process of creating my character and should be finished by tonight or tomorrow I hope.

 

Should we all set up a date where we can get together and do this?

[supersonicfan91 55]

I am hoping to start next Saturday or Sunday if possible 

[Concerto Dusk 240]

About what time though. And as far as character settings, I have not played d and d 4.0 which the system is if i an correct so if the stat settings have changed from 3.5 that is something I will need help with. I am just wondering if I should go magic or chaos, any suggestions?

it depends on what you what to play as mostly

[Concerto Dusk 240]

I would usually play a rigue to work towards a pirate, but that was 3.5. So, im leaning towards chaos on this one. Then again, the griffon one was good. Ah damn. I am gonna have to look at my past games to decide lol.

To help with our logistical problems, I have two questions, 

1. What Timezone is everyone in?

2. What time works best for everyone?

[Concerto Dusk 240]

Night is usually best for me. As for time zone. Eastern. Or Saturday around noon.

[7th Boss 102]

morning, sometime around nine until noon.

link to the character sheet made in google sheets it is still in progress though

Alright, here is my WIP character sheet. Please tell me what you think and if I should change anything I have so far:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FU-fOauk65WbXkTSxuj6DhRcqKcZMGsIZvDPnH1_86A/edit?usp=sharing

And a question to the DM: Can I give him a bonus to his Bluff (which I assume has something to do with lying), Thievery, Streetwise, and Stealth stats due to his upbringing on the streets and having to steal and lie to get by?

[Concerto Dusk 240]

I will set this up after I download the stupid app I need to make a excel sheet. I am actually going gonna play a foal.vi just wonderm can you be a crystal foal, just not get the benifts of being crystal until growing up?

[Lighting Star 93]

@

Well that's really up to the DM. He said I could be a Zebra Foal if I wanted to, but I decided not to. 

But my question is, could Crystal Ponies be foals? According to the lure in the rule book they're ageless

[Concerto Dusk 240]

True, and reading the races again, i am not sure u want to be a crystal pony. I was gonna base a character of an oc, but with thier bonuses I can't. If he allows it, i am gomna playba bat pony foal.

[Lighting Star 93]

Ok I have two things special things for my character I'd like to get the DM's approval on. 

 

First is an ability called Street Rat. It'll cause my character to passively attempt to steal a small item from vendors/stores with a reduced rate of success and no chance of being caught.

 

The second thing is called Foalhood Memories. It's a cloth blanket he fashioned into a hood that can be used to somewhat hide his identity 

Alright, I made a character sheet for Taric:

[purple.teal 50]

Ok, to put a little bit more oomph into each of the character classes, I am thinking of giving each of them an ability that would be used out of combat. This ability will (supposedly) help with the roleplaying of that class and overall make it more enjoyable.
