Finished updating Kildrak's character sheet link to the new site version.

Hi everyone. I’m new to the tavern, but I know 3.5 decently well, or did. Apologies if I accidentally flash to Pathfinder 1e or 5e rules by accident.

[Blue Jay]

Welcome, Rudolf!

I dropped 3e a couple years ago when I stopped having time to play at RFT. I've picked up 5e now, and I think it's more fun to play in-person around a table (because of the simplicity of things). But, 3e is still so much more fun to build and experiment with, and it's fun for play-by-post (where I have the time to think through things between posts, and flex my writing muscles).

I caught myself using 5e action economy in an ongoing mission at OGMW a couple weeks ago: my chain devil stood up from prone, moved up to the players, and made a full attack on them. I'd forgotten how stingy 3e is with action economy!

I spent the last 5+ years DMing for 5e, both on MW and IRL, so I totally get the struggle.

[Inash]

I’ll be a bit slow today. I’ve got 10 new pcs to set up.

[Blue Jay]

"PC" means "personal computer" and not "player character", maybe?

No worries: I'll make sure everyone's ready before I throw you into the action.

[joran1313]

Wow! Ok. Wasn't expecting to get picked up, but thank you Blue Jay! Checking in to the IC post here in a moment.

[Blue Jay]

These are the tokens I'll use for your characters on the maps. My habit is to match your character's circular "base" to the color of your speech text. In this case, with Gothika and Kildrak both using black text, I adjusted the colors slightly to make them distinct.

Feel free to propose changes to the minis, if you want them.

@Inash, your character sheet says HooGrawr is Small size. Is that correct? Also, have I ever GMed for you before?

Looks good to me!

[rogueblade0729]

That's fine by me, Blue Jay!

[joran1313]

So, among the veteran adventurers in the tavern, which I know is many, who would be the best to ask about planar creatures like the Phoera and how to hunt and/or lure one to trap? I'm sure there is a planar druid or planar ranger or high leveled mage/Factotum of some sort that would know this knowledge that we can ask.

[rogueblade0729]

If we want information about creatures from the plane of Fire, we'll need someone with good Knowledge (arcana). If we want information about how to hunt and trap one, we'll need someone with good Survival. Do we have that in our party, by any chance?

[Rudolf]

Ez is a ranger, with acceptable Survival for a 3rd level character.

[paladinred]

It is Knowledge Planes for creatures from anywhere other than the Prime Material Plane.
