Ct charger, I was thinking about your intelligence question... a 5 int is at about the lowest 5%, which puts your characters in around 75. This is not "retarded", but it's near to that. A fictional character near this level was Forrest Gump. There's also Gilligan, Maxwell Smart, etc.

After you create a macro, a button to run it appears on your roll the dice screen. Rolling it here makes it "official"... it's in the database, and you can copy a link to it into your post.

Hi! Thanks for putting up your sheet! On the thief skills, you get a +1 (for your skill level) + dex bonus, and for the climb and sneak, you have an armor check penalty, but not for hide.

Will do, where do I find what is penalized by armor and what’s not for future reference?

It's on p 70 of the main rules, where it calls out various physical activities for penalties... climb, jump, balance, swim, move silently, and other such physical activities.

On another note, any thoughts about what Fiapy is doing in Lankhmar? It seems like he might have trouble making his way there alone...? (We'll hook you up with the other character(s) in the first adventure, but before that...?)

I believe he was on a ship and they left without him which was probably his fault but maybe not. Now he desperate to find anyone from his part of the world he can trust or at least understand as he is low on money...

I can add more later tonight

Just a note... when you first create a macro, there is an option on the macro creation page to roll it to test it out. But they are just test rolls and they are not saved anywhere nor can you copy and paste them anywhere.

You need to roll it from the Roll The Dice page of the website.

Yup, it's the. If you click on the link fo a roll, you can see the details, and forum code that lets you display, say...

Melee Longsword Attack [1d20] = 18+[1d3] = 3+3; Damage Deed die+[1d8+1] = 7+1 = 8

You might want to just put the deed die as its own thing, rather than mixed with the attack roll... hrmmmm
