I think that is its capacity? [img]images/smiley/smiley.png[/img]
Yeah, wasn't sure as there was a footnote on that, but there is a listed weight also.

Yes, the weight of packs and sacks is for the full container. I just noticed that large sacks say 40lbs in the list, but 30lbs in the foot note.

I will chase up whether that one has been corrected or not.

So it looks like we have 3 fighters (elf, dwarf and man), 2 clerics, and a magic-user (elf) so far... looking forward to seeing what Rleduc and Zenopus will add to the mix!

I love it that we have elf and anti-elf already ;D

Cool, with 16 Int (+10% XP) I'm not surprised!

Yes, that is reasonable.


And "Mot" is a simply superb name ;D

Too bad his first name isn't "Bon"! ;D

From your descriptions, above, I'm assuming that Tirandir the Elf is starting out as a fighter, while Firas the Elf is starting out as a magic-user?

(I like that the two elves are chaotic... fickle fey that they are!)


Will the magic-users among us (presumably being Mot and Firas) please state for the record which spell they will have memorised on this fateful day?

Will Mot and Dramorian also please choose an alignment? Otherwise, I will assume they are neutral [img]images/smiley/smiley.png[/img]

Yep! Unless you'll let it be assumed that Firas has already adventured as a fighter with the Grey Heart and is now switching to MU. ;D

(Hey... if you don't ask...)

Oh, I'm going to switch out a spell real quick (Jump for Read Magic) and also ask... can I change my story to indicate he HAS read the scroll? I'd hate to have to start off Day One memorizing Read Magic so he can read the scroll he just dropped 25gp on in character creation.

Oh, and memorized spell is Sleep (or, as I like to call it, the Grim Quietus). Added that to my character sheet, as well.
