older brother is fine if you want instead of twin.
i have my age as 65 since we are essentially 1/2 elf. Aragorn was 85 during the war of the rings.

Re: So It Begins (character creation)
make sense to me. i added 10years to that for my age.. i think it's reasonable that these characters could be more 'mature' vs the typical teenager embarking into the adventuring world for the first time.

Mere babes. Gilwennen is 161.

I'm sticking with this.Inferno wrote:Hobbit fighter/thief, played by dmw71 (we'll see if his first viewing of LOTR changes that)
I have a concept in mind. Now I just need to sit down and actually flesh it out (and figure out where all the details are in 1e again).

Yay! Thank you.ravenn4544 wrote:i just updated to being your older (middle) brother. that work? You don't have to change anything then.
Re: So It Begins (character creation)
Next up: Hobbits are pretty rare in the world, and we'll be adventuring beyond the borders of the Shire.
So it's possible that SocraticLawyer's and dmw71's hobbit PCs knew each other before they left home. Just a thought.

Ah. I though it was 7 spells per level. Coolie moe. I’m good with whatever!
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.

It's 7 spells per spell level, not PC level (or dungeon level for that matter!)rredmond wrote:Ah. I though it was 7 spells per level. Coolie moe. I’m good with whatever!

I'm not married to the idea of hobbit thief. It looks like we'll need more MUs in the party. I can pivot to elf F/MU.
How do we know you're not a donkey-brained man?

Urdur is a gnome illusionist. SocraticLawyer is a guy who plays a gnome illusionist.Inferno wrote:Next up: Hobbits are pretty rare in the world, and we'll be adventuring beyond the borders of the Shire.

If Urdur is playing a hobbit, things will get truly weird....!

Thanks. Clearly, my grip on reality is tenuous. Will fix my post!

Looking good. Some thoughts:
HP should be 30. (Rangers get two (d8) Hit Dice at first level, and another HD at second level. The Con bonus to hit points is added for every HD; three in this case.
His encumbrance is "Normal."
His movement is 9".
For languages, a Dunedain would know:
- Westron, the common tongue of Men
Adunaic, the language of Numenor, from whence the Dunedain are descended
Sindarin, the lower language of the Elves
Dwarvish
Orcish
Please fill in the Saving Throws. Let me know if you don't own a DMG and I can provide them.
A wisdom of 15 gets you a Magical Attack Adjustment of +1 which you should note beneath the Saving Throws, so I don't forget.
Thanks.

Hey fellers!
Who's up for a dwarf in the group?
Female?
Or is this the "he-man woman haters club?"
