PC Setup

The initial idea is that each player will run one of the pre-gens.

So the first thing to do is for the players to agree who will run each PC.
Only one instance of each pre-gen in the party please :)


You can then refine your chosen PC.

This is to make a vanilla pre-gen a little more uniquely yours.
Ideally, the PCs will remain within the iconic character themes upon which they're based.

You can, for example, add and/or change details like:
  • One key ability-score-related word (e.g., strong, canny, wise, agile, tough, charismatic). You'll no doubt have noticed that I didn't include ability scores in the stat blocks. This is partly because ability scores mainly influence XP earned in the original game, and partly because I wanted players to have at least this much input.
  • Whatever normal equipment you wish your character to carry.
  • Perhaps a few words of Wyrmspear setting flavour that cover the PC's prior adventures. Bonus points if this falls within Wyrmspear's DL-spoofy pattern. Brilliant ideas could end up getting baked into the publishable version (with due credit given, of course) :D

Players are free to discuss initial PC assignment, equipment, and tweaking here in this topic...

Hi all, i'd like to play Flin Ireforge unless anyone else really wants to.
Thanis would be my second preference if someone else really wants Flin

Garamon sounds good. But I’ll switch it up if we need. :)

I am interested in Witherun, if that's cool with all!

Really for no other reason than that he fits with my penchant for character names beginning with W. 8-)

Thanks everyone, all below requests are locked in.

Sully and ehiker will have to pick between Thanis and Goldwen...

Meanwhile, everyone else can have a go at adding any normal equipment they want to carry, and any other player-added nuances. Have at it.

I tend not to play female PCs but, for the sake of this playtest, I will take either character. I'm fine with Goldwen if ehiker would prefer Thanis.
