Title: [3.5E] As of yet unnamed Forgotten Realms AU
Post by: Kerrus on April 25, 2016, 04:21:56 AM
This game started a couple weeks back, and brought me back into 3.5. I got into D&D when 3.0 came out, played for 3.5, got into 4E and was heavily involved with the community, living forgotten realms, and the like for a number of years before the various playgroups I ran with dried up. I took part in the 5E/D&D Next beta runs, and I approve of where they've taken the franchise.

BUT, 3.5 will always be "My" D&D.

Still, prior to the start of this game, I hadn't touched 3.5 in close to four years, and couldn't really remember very much in detail, save that I really wanted to play a Spellthief. So I started putting one together, I researched character options, I min-maxed- but the various details only came back to memory slowly. So by the time I'd figured out the basics of my character, I'd already made a number of decisions that closed out things I wanted to do in the future. Whoops.

But not to worry, because those limitations have really driven me to work harder on developing this character.

Currently we've had two sessions so far, with another scheduled on Tuesday. I'll recount the first two here, and add an entry each week when we get a new one under our belt.

Getting to the grit, here's the character basics:


Character Name: Rel Feren (Lysanthar Dawnfire)
"Animal Companion": Christofferson V "AKA the Party Tank" [Adult Boar]
Race: Planetouched LA+0 Magic Blooded Celadrin (Elf)
Class: Spellthief 1
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

So right off the bat, you might be able to tell that I'm totally bullshit. The rest of the party has taken advantage of the PGtF Planetouched template so they're all playing 'Outsider descendants' with a couple exceptions. I'm also the only neutral-neutral alignment guy in the party. This will become important later.

The other players are as follows:

Name: Big John
Character: Planetouched LA+0 Zenythri Swordsage 1
Alignment: Neutral Good

Name: DT
Character: Wood Elf "Healbot Jesus" Favored Soul 1
Alignment: Chaotic Good

Name: Dan
Character: Water-Orc Fighter 1
Alignment: Neutral Good

Name: Jack
Character: Planetouched LA+0 Tiefling Focused Transmuter Wizard 1
Alignment: Chaotic Good
