5/28 Carissa
Current Party Makeup (based on observations):
- N'laea (Fighter/Ranger): She can absolutely hold her own on the frontlines, but built for range. She hasn't really had too many chances to do range combat which is why I hesitate to toss her up front unless necessary even if she can handle it just fine. An elf with a bow has so much potential with that bow. Her sword can start fires. Almost always available.
- Talwin (Fighter): Frontline fighter who easily hits the hardest. May be more reliable starting in September, but poses a problem for planning when attendance is unknown. Availability variable. Here 90% of the time!
- Daphene (Fighter): Low level but has potential to be a new frontline fighter. Will need some buffs and guidance to help out and become more reliable for the front. Almost always available.
- Raelynn (Priest): Mostly support and distraction spells available. Very, very few combat spells, but can help buff where needed and add some chaos when wanted. Not frontline by any means, but has a sling, lasso, and quarterstaff she hits okay with when needed. Almost always available.
- Licornah (Priest): Mostly focused on after combat healing. Has used a spear in the past, but not often. Almost always available.
- Bixi (Mage/Priest): Mage spells seem to be more for deterrent while priest spells are a mix of support and combat. Plenty of potential once some spell sorting is done. Almost always available.
- Craigh (Mage): ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
- Zayden (Thief): He has mostly focused on stabbing, sneaking, trying to backstab, and distract. Still unclear his potential to hit, but has high potential for distraction and trying something different. Unavailable until later in the night.
- Lanek (Thief): Great for thief skills, sometimes will stab things, happy to distract. Availability variable.
- Youtargim (Pirate): He has a magic scabbard which is handy, and has tried some new things such as tackling, but may or may not be distracted by Raelynn at times. As an NPC, will mostly only do what we tell him to do. Always available.
- Ulrik (???): ??????????????????????????????????????????????
One thing that we will need to confirm is the location of each building.
In Hourglass? That is near the Inn of the Lost Eagle. Rae intended to build there. Do you want the other buildings there also? There are other towns like Otsuan you can build in if you want to help build those up too. Just want to give options.
6/3 Carissa
I've been trying to avoid an ultimatum myself, but just want to iterate it here after a comment last night: If there is an adventure you do not want to do, whether it's a deal killer or game killer for you, SPEAK UP.
If starting at Level 1 is a deal killer for Michael, that's great to know! Then we won't do that because we don't want to lose Michael as a player. For me, I'll tell you now that I am still so against the whole Underdark figure out the Mist nonsense that it's a deal killer for me (again, might change in the future but absolutely not something I want to do next). Bob's got lots of plans, ideas, and all that so no one should worry about what happens after this era. And if he knows which ones to cross off now, that might help him better figure out the next step or MORE plans, ideas, and all that. I know I don't want to stress about the possibility of going on an adventure I'll hate starting in July-ish, so I don't want anyone else to do that, either.
