Bleh.

Sick.

Unhappy. Nose hates me.

Have one Valdemar character sheet! Yay! A couple of other concepts floated at me, although no other character sheets yet. Think I will stop taking characters at 7. That's the max that I think could really be handled without the game moving at a glacial pace.

Still have cards to do, and a thank you letter to write. No concentration. Need more drugs.

EDIT: Have the character sheets for a Sun-Priest, a Herald, and a Tale'edras Mage, with solid concepts but no sheets for a Kyree and a Valdemaran Guard character. Those characters get priority, but still have two 'slots' open.

Yay! :D

Ahhhhhhh. [winces, nods] I wasn't quite sure how the stats translated -- like, in IN, I know pretty much what it means mechanically and ICly to have Str 3, but not what it means in BR to have Str -2. [laughs] Was hoping that the Canny Defense Feat would help make up for 'em, too, but I can change stuff. [grins]

Hm. As a mage and with good Int, is it okay if I take Wis -1, or should I avoid that? (I'm thinking Wis -1, Con -1, Str -1, and drop a point off Cha. Unless those -1s are still crippling, which . . . would kind of suck, because good Dex/Cha are IC and I think she kind of needs her Int for the skills, but. [coughs] I can drop Dex/Cha to +2 each if I have to. [grins])

Keep in mind that target numbers in BR are typically not as punishing as they are in regular D&D. You don't have to weight yourself so heavily in one direction or another.

Also, consider that 0 is 'average'. That's about the same strength and healthiness of you or I or Joe on the street. So if you're below average in those stats, you may want to add something in your history about that. Was she ill as a child? Just being sheltered doesn't really cut it, because even sheltered Tale'edras still live a fairly active life compared to your average modern American, not least of which involves climbing those bleeding trees every day.

You can have what stats you wish, but they /will/ come into play, and you guys are going into a pretty rough landscape. So speaketh the GM.

Ah! Okay. In that case . . . [edits the LJpost] (Honestly, I wasn't thinking so much about "heavily weighted" as "I want the Int so I have the skills to back up her cross-training, and it seems weird for that to be her best stat." [laughs] But knowing that 0 is average helps lots in figuring out what works for the concept. [grins])

Re questions: thanks! :D [makes notes!]

Okay, I looked at the revision, and that looks perfectly good by me. :)
