They have established contacts with the Legion of Steel and the Knights of Neraka, and individual characters have memberships in the Knights of Solamnia, Conclave of High Sorcery, and Citadel of Light. However, they are relatively low-ranking members of their organizations currently. The Legion of Steel sees the party as capable allies, but they are merely persons of interest to the Knights of Neraka at the moment. Thanks for the answers. Written a good deal of the application now, but there's a lot of the setting I have not had the time to read myself up on. One question that's not exactly important: Are there any setting-specific instruments available, or just the standard ones in the PHB? I'd also like to ask a more loaded question. I came up with a concept for a bard because it seemed that a face might come in handy. Is that true, or have I misunderstood something? Perhaps you're more in he market for a scout, or a dedicated tank such as a paladin? Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codexgigas Posted April 12 Author Clone Share Posted April 12 The party currently has a Cavalier Fighter, Necromancer Wizard, Abjurer Wizard, and Arcana Cleric. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maester1216 Posted April 12 Clone Share Posted April 12 Charisma does seem to be the lowest stat amongst the current party. Having a dedicated face is never bad. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayeba Posted April 13 Clone Share Posted April 13 (edited) @codexgigas I have a less important question regarding bardic magic. I read the topic about primal magic and its realms. I feel that the categories are very much aimed towards sorcerers, and lack some crucial entries for bard magic. What about magic that affects thoughts (such as Detect Thoughts) or feelings (Calm Emotions) or both (Charm)? Or spells that affect the body (Healing Word, Enlarge/Reduce)? It's more of a flavor question, really. My character wouldn't know anything about the categories at all; her magic is something she has learned from instinct/trial and error. A related question is about persecution. Are there people that hate primal sorcery so much that it is wise to keep it hidden most of the time?

Durairanubis Posted April 13 Clone Share Posted April 13 (edited) Good Morning, New question as I do not recall. I know I said I was going to do bard or monk, but I'm thinking maybe barbarian instead. Are there Giants in Dragonlance? nking about going either path of giant barbarian, a barbarian giant foundling or both, but unsure if theres giants in dragonlance to beable to fit background into the setting. NVM I found my answer Edited April 13 by Durairanubis (see edit history) Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durairanubis Posted April 13 Clone Share Posted April 13 I'm new to Myth Weavers. What am I doing wrong? I'm trying to create a thread to submit a character and the system is not letting me? I created Ugarth Stumbledock a Half Ogre Drunken Master Monk Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maester1216 Posted April 13 Clone Share Posted April 13 Hmmm... You're in the Applications thread correct? You're gonna wanna click the Start New Topic button in the centre-right of your screen. From there you fill out the title (Ugarth Stumbledock - Half Ogre Drunken Master Monk or something to that effect). You'd need to put something in the textbox as well, so something like WIP or Reserved if you don't have a format set up yet.

Some of the info on the realms of sorcery is moot, as the Academy of Sorcery is destroyed and no one has stepped up to attempt to rebuild it. It's there as flavor for sorcerers. I'll also note that the Campaign Binder is a collection of D&D 3.5 materials, as that was the last official update Dragonlance had until Shadow of the Dragon Queen. The lore doesn't fit with 5E, but it's the most official lore there is. And yes, the Wizards of High Sorcery often hate primal sorcerers, especially the Black Robes. Dwarven society in general is not especially tolerant of any arcane magic, either. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like the Wizards of High Sorcery is more opposed to sorcerers than bards, but I should still be wary.
