So just for the sake of clarification, I'm assuming you want us to only use the predetermined stuff each class gets, right? Getting the starting equipment instead of rolling for wealth, use Average HP per level instead of rolling, etc?

I run on this assumption because I'm not sure there's a way to reasonably prove I'm not cheating in my rolls or anything like that outside of honor system, and that's usually how most of the DM's I've seen like to play it.

And in the event that we have something in our starting gear we don't really want or need, do we have the option to sell it for half its GP value, and if so, do we then have the ability to spend that GP prior to the campaign's first post? Or do you want to wait until there's an availability in character to do it?

I mean, I rolled for how much GP my character has... if that's not how we're doing this, I would like to know also.

Worth noting is that usually, you either roll for wealth, which you then use to buy your starting gear, or you get the basic gear your class and backgrounds give you.

If you choose the latter, your background is usually what will give you your initial GP, which is rarely more than 10.

Rolling for wealth is supposed to give you a LOT of GP that you can use to buy whatever starting equipment you want; it's not actually intended to go in tandem with the basic equipment.

... oh. Whoops. ^^; I did not realise that.

Yeah, unless that's how the GM wants to play it~ So that's why I figure it's best to figure out the specifics of how @Birdboy wants to do it~

EDIT: Ah, also I did the heights and weights running on an assumption on my part. I kind of did them in a rush xD So I'll adjust them later on to match others. xD We may want to think about how tall these Neopets actually are. If they're pet sized like on the site, or, since we're playing an anthro version without humans, if they're normal human-ish size?

Alright, here are my three characters finished, for the most part. I might edit a few things here and there depending on what Birdy says. But here's what I've got, so tell me what you guys think and which one, if any, you think you'd most want to see. Because I'm having a hard time deciding. xD

• Ferrin Aren, the Red Scorchio Banneret
• Oki Winters, the Blue Bori Eldritch Knight
• Luke Thorton, the Faerie Lutari Inquisitive

I want you to play what makes you happy! I personally think having a rogue might be useful though.

@Birdboy Did you see my CS on the previous page? Does look it okay?

@XxFellsingxX Sorry, I have been very busy and during winter I tend to bog down and check here a little less. That said, I just finished reading the backstory and it's great. At some point, it would be fun to introduce your character's family, particularly her sister! The only question I really have is: where do you think Bogshot is? Close to meridell would make the most sense I think.

Since everyone has characters made (I think), we are almost ready to get this show on the road. I guess I should start drafting up an introduction pose. Oh boy

Actually, Bogshot Swamp, home to the Kastraliss, is closer to Brightvale than it is to Meridell. In the Darkest Faerie PS2 game, it's an area you can go to and explore. In that game, at a certain point, the heroes go to Brightvale, and on their way back toward Meridell they have to stop by Bogshot Village in order to recruit a carpenter to repair a bridge.

Btw, did you see my question earlier, Bird? About starting equipment? Are we just starting with the starting equipment for the class? Do we roll for wealth ON TOP OF that, or do you want us to just take the class equipment and be done? Also, do we get to put on some extra customization via our colors, if they're more or less replacing our backgrounds?

And finally, the only real reason I asked what everyone else thought was because I couldn't make up my mind. xD I figure Luke is probably the "most useful" to the team comp atm, but the more I think about it, the more I think I'm leaning toward Ferrin or Oki. Ferrin being on a team with a monk sounds like a lot of fun there (he's also my favorite honestly xD)...but Oki is just a lot of fun, and he'd be the only thing we have that fills the role a wizard often does (intelligence, ritual casting, etc.)

Plus, as fun as Luke would be in a plot related to Faeries, I think I may pull him back a bit since his color of choice would probably be the most difficult to account for. xD

1. Did not know that, thank you this knowledge helps.
2. Take either starting gold or the equipment from your class. If you roll for starting gold roll on the guild and send me a link. If your character is taking a normal color: green, blue, red, yellow,purple, than use a normal background. I had intended colors as backgrounds if you went for a glowing character or a starry color, one if the expensive paintbrushes basically.
3. If that's the character you want to play go for it!!

@Birdboy Oml I've been here so long and I didn't know there was a dice feature on this site until right now. Whoops. xD

I'll probably roll for wealth then. I prefer the ability to tailor supplies to the character~ But yeah, that makes sense!

I'm still stuck between Ferrin and Oki, though, admittedly. They're both really fun characters for me, and I've never gotten to use either subclass before, so that's not much help.

Maybe for the sake of variety, I'll just go with Ferrin. That way we don't have two Bori in the party. xD Though that'll mean no ritual casting or int-focused characters if I do that.

I'll ask the group: Is that fine, or would people prefer I play Oki, whether because he's got a focus on INT, because he can ritual cast, or simply you like his personality better? Because, again, I don't mind playing either one. xD

I suppose I could always just leave it up to lady luck as well, and just roll for it....

@Digizel I'll admit, I'm leaning slightly towards Ferrin because he reminds me of certain others characters I've seen you play (coughHidoncoughAgumoncoughcough) and also that means we have an entirely neutral good party which... I dunno. I find it funny how we all picked the same alignment xD

On the other hand, Oki seems like he's got a whole 'jerk with a heart of gold' thing which could add an interesting dynamic to the group, since all the other characters seem to be fairly nice people.

Haha, yeah Ferrin, Hidon and Agumon are largely the same character I suppose, based on my favorite character concept~

But yeah, this is largely why I’m having such a tough time narrowing it down to one of the other. I’m so annoyingly indecisive xD I keep coming back to the positives of the other character and being all: “But then we don’t get that…”

@Digizel I mean, if something happens to your current character, either death or being incapacited in some way, you have back-ups.

@Digizel Why not flip a coin? When you do you get an answer from fate itself and if you don't like it, you know which one you really wanted to play! btw, Feel free to roll your starting wealth. Just send me the rolls you get so I can confirm you don't cheat.

Those are actually some strong points. I did the thing, and I guess Ferrin it is. Anything happens to him, then I guess it’s Oki on the chopping block second xD

In any case, do we want to have a roll thing for this campaign specifically to keep everyone’s rolls in a single place?

I'll look into it tomorrow, it's my day off. It will be my first time using it.

Ooh, congrats! Use it and enjoy it while it lasts my friend!
