(6e) Fantasy Pregen Characters Wanted

Re: (6e) Fantasy Pregen Characters Wanted

 

If you'd like something a little different for your orcs than simply savage fighting beasts' date=' why not give them a warrior culture like Klingons have? I've done that in one fantasy world, even borrowing some Klingon words to flavor their speech. My players liked it.[/quote']

 

You know, that's a darned good idea. I don't know just how I'll use it, but it's a good idea. Rep to you.

What do you still need?

 

PC: Cleric/Priest, Archery Specialist, one other. Don't forget to save 15 Complication points for GM customization.

NPC: The Duke of Orcs, his incompetent son, and orc soldiers.

 

HD files, please.

Incidentally, Does anyone know a way to attach .hdc files to a private message?

I put them in a zip file before emailing them. I've tried sending them in the past as an .hdc attachment, and they always seemed to end up at text inserted in the email.

I was lucky with the file I had sent. While the XML text showed up in the message, my e-mail program (good ol' Mozilla Thunderbird) recognized the attachment as a separate file and allowed me to save it to the HD6 directory.

 

Thanks very much for the file, by the way, lensman. It's a big help. He'll be very interesting to play.

OK I just found out one of my players is going to be on the BBS. Looking for advice on how to avoid spoiling too much....

Ok, here's the healer. I decided to get away from the traditional archetypes here, and created a repentant necromancer.

Pity I can't rep you again. This is really clever.

 

The only problem is this:

 

 

His main offensive power works only against undead, and I wasn't planning to use any undead. I'll have to adjust the adventure a bit.

A week to go before the game! I'm getting excited!

 

I still need a couple more pregens just to be safe. Anyone else want to contribute?

Re: (6e) Fantasy Pregen Characters Wanted

 

I just wanted to thank Indy for all his help. The game was full and went fairly well (except that the PCs couldn't take the hint that it was time to let themselves be captured and I had to do it by GM fiat). Unfortunately most of the little quirks i worked so hard at didn't come into play, but everybody had fun so I'm happy.

 

Special thanks to Chris Goodwin for providing a selection of 5e books we ended up not even touching, and for helping explain the rules I wasn't so certain of (especially STUN Multiplier).

Glad things went well. Those were among the first 6e characters I made, so I wasn't sure how effective they'd be.
