Here's the first part...◊

... and here's the second.◊

Looks pretty good, but I want to point out two things:

1. Your Armor Class is actually 16, not 14, since your shield still gives +2 (assuming you're wearing it, of course).

2. I'm kinda surprised that you only took a short sword. You have the choice of all of the martial weapons available, and the one-handed weapons are, for the most part, better than the light weapons like the short sword. For example, the longsword, for 2 lbs. extra and 5 gp more than the short sword, has a higher damage die while retaining the critical threat on 19-20. I'm not saying you can't use it instead if you want; I just wanted to make sure you knew.

edited 15th Jan '11 8:43:13 AM by Everest

The list I looked at didn't actually state which weapons were one-handed and which were two-handed. And since, in the real world, longswords were generally two-hnded weapons, I went with the short sword.

Ah. Also, you don't have feats listed. You took Power Attack and Weapon Focus (x weapon), right (I'm going off of what I saw in the Jammies thread)? Also, humans have 4 extra ranks to add to skills at 1st level and gain 1 more than usual at each level up. Sorry I didn't notice those things sooner.

Actually, I took Power Attak and Shield Bash.

Okay.

I'll have to try and update it tomorrow. Some time it's not 4AM DX

And I now realize that my Natural Bond feat doesn't do anything for my druid. X[

I'll have to fix it later.

Take a look at his Reflex, Armor Class, etc. I saw the stuff before your character's stats got distorted. You still have the ability scores as they were on there, so you can extrapolate from there. I can try to see if I can load him up before the mutation happened to save some trouble though..

Uh, what?

His Dexterity is 14, so his Dex modifier is +2. His base Reflex save is +2. His Reflex save should be four total, but it's listed as +11. That's just one small bit of what's wrong on there.

It's okay. You have what is needed to get the proper stats. Heck, I could do it for you if you felt it would be easier.

Oh, that'd be nice. I have no idea why that happened, so thank you! :3

Boy howdy, did that take a while. Here is Felgrove, fixed up and as he should be:

Felgrove, Elf Bard 1

A few things, though:

1. You're missing one rank that you could put in any of those skills.
2. To make use of your Bardic Music, you need at least 3 ranks in Perform (any). You only have one rank in it right now. You also need to specify which Profession you're using. My recommendation is this: get rid of the rank in Profession, and put 2 more ranks in Perform.
3. Specify which instrument you're using with your Perform checks.
4. Since your Strength is low and your Dexterity is relatively high, I would strongly recommend buying a longbow or a shortbow or something, since you have proficiency in those already anyway.

Uhhhh, I might be ble to play today, but I'm not sure :/

I don't know if I'm being dragged off to the Adventure Playground or not :/

1. Huh, really? Well I guess I'll put it into perform.
2. Ah, okay.
3. Okay. I'll use an ocarina! :3
4. That sounds like a good idea. Should I also buy some projectiles?

Now, time to fix him up more.

edited 15th Jan '11 4:59:39 PM by Zersk

You probably won't need projectiles as long as you have enough ammunition for whichever style of bow you choose.

Okay, everyone. I have both the yackfest IRC channel and the iScribble room up. If Cygy says she can play today, I want to know if everyone else is good. If not, we'll play tomorrow.
