[OOC] Pending Reboot...

At a guess? He's speaking in dwarven there-I think-so that would probably be some dwarven holy figure. Not necessarily a religious one, but just one considered to be revered by the dwarven culture at large.

@rush99999 roll me a history check

@rush99999 From that you would know that it is the clan name of the rightful and current rulers of the dwarven civilisation. They are supposedly a very long lived line.

EDIT: also heads up folks I might be without internet next few days. I'll endeavour to keep you updated.

I'm starting to think I should rewrite my post and take Dreeda to the tavern or dwarf

@Cao the Exiled

That'd probably be a good idea.

[Lucius Cypher]

Got room for another?

[Mae]

@Lucius Cypher sure, if you can make a character in a relatively quick turnaround?

Could you give me a couple sentence descriptor of your character / place in the village so I can start factoring them in in the meanwhile? It'll also give you a chance to bounce ideas off other people as well.

@Mae

She is a half-orc cattle breeder who wants to make the beat damn cheese the world has ever seen. To that end she wonders if maybe cheese from cows is too narrow a source for her goal so she is willing to explore new and likely dangerous ventures in order to have a better understanding of true cheese mastery. Also she’s really good at darts.

[Cao the Exiled]

I already love this character idea XD

[Cao the Exiled]

"Dire Wolf cheese?!"

"You can say it's a hard cheese with a sharp bite to it"

[Necroes]

Personally, I'm wondering what class this cheese-mancer is going to be aiming for.

[Lucius Cypher]

We got classes? I thought we stay commoners. But if we do get classes, probs barbarian.

[Necroes]

Part of the commoner class (that we're using) is, eventually, you level up and gain normal class levels. I'm aimed at druid, we also have; a fighter; a barbarian; an artificer; and a wizard.

I'll be damned if I can remember who is who right now, and I'm too lazy to check. Think I got them all, though.

[Lucius Cypher]

Well, if our class level also comes with stat increases, I actually had a barbarian/Druid idea. Granted that’s if we survive that long.

[Cao the Exiled]

My oc, Dreeda, is aiming for an artificer

[Necroes]

@Lucius Cypher It's described in the commoner class we're using. There's a link to it in the opening post. Again, too lazy to get it.

Basically, we go through 5(kind of) levels of commoner, gaining small bonuses per level. The bonus for level 5 is you remake the character using the normal rules, with a standard class. If you pick the same starting class as the one you picked for your commoner level 2 ability, you get a bonus starting level. You also get a bonus feat.

I've got no idea how it will all work in practice, but eventually, you should(could) end up with a traditional character. No idea how it's all going to stack with existing traits/abilities/feats/etc. However, given the nature of the game, it's a toss up whether it's going to end up mattering at all.

[Lucius Cypher]

Well, sounds fun nonetheless. I can start making a character if it's okay for me to make one.

[Mae]

@Lucius Cypher Go for it!

Just want to warn you guys, though, that the chances of you making it to adventuring levels as a normal person in a normal world are slim to none. Although I appreciate your optimism.

[Necroes]

In case anyone is wondering; It's absinthe. The bottle is filled with the ol' green fairy!

Considering the plants used to make it, someone like Einkel-who lives out in the sticks and uses wild herbs to make alcohol-would be about the only person in a setting like this who would produce something like that. Not because other people Couldn't make it...

But who besides a bunch of drunken hill-folk would toss a bunch of spices and medical herbs into a pot and try to turn them into booze? Especially ones you can only find growing in the wilds, and only together in a place with geography as messed-up as Swampmucks's.
