First I would recommend talking about here is what is everyone’s soft or hard lines/content that would make you uncomfortable would not like to see during session. Second I would be discussing how your characters would know each other as well. Are they already in a party together? Know each other in passing? Reputation? Or within the same Adventurers Company?

Hi there yall,
I'm thinking of playing a fathomless warlock, she is a cartographer that travelled the sea and made a pact while at sea.

#

but I can change everythign quite easily if someone else wanted to play a warlock or something like that

winged terrace
#

I'm thinking about a gnome rune fighter/moon druid named Hearth. He's typically a shepherd but takes quests on the side to help deal with problems that are effecting his Livestock. He has a crow companion.

supple rampart
#

I am playing a half-elf, Kal Rin an Artillerist Artificer and Failed Merchant. Sadly adventurers did not like the idea of magic items for rent, so he became an adventurer to pay-off the loan he took to start his business.

quartz zinc
#

dm me when your on so i can get you your character sheet

supple rampart
#

I like the idea of that Kal Rin being from the same guild/organization, maybe worked with a few of the party members in the past, and other knows the others only in passing.
...
On the topic of the cumulative 2k gold, I think everyone should post a magic item(s) they want and work it out from there.
Additionally, I don't really have a use for all of my infusions and I like to share them with other players, so if a magic item you want happens to falls under what I can make then ask away. The only thing I ask in return is that you think about use your part of the cumulative gold to get some kind of Utility item for the party.
...
So I will start with a Sentinel/+1 Shield 510 gp.

winged terrace
#

Hearth would likely know you from asking for equipment maintenance or maybe a smaller raid party.

#

@quartz zinc How would buying common items go?

tired bear
#

Isadove could be selling her maps to a certain guild in particular (same one maybe Kal couldnt sell his idea to), or within that is for sure. She is a kalashtar so in a one on one setting, she can hold conversations with people and other sentient beings a lot depending on if we get to do a lot of RP or not. But if we do not get a healer, maybe focusing our money on potions could be for the best

tired bear
#

@quartz zinc I'd go for a cloack of protection for me charcter item (matches the art xP )

winged terrace
#

I'm personally debating between a sentinel shield and a decanter of endless water for my item. I think getting a broom of flying may be helpful for the party.

winged terrace
#

Maybe instead of healing potions, a restorative ointment? It works better and has multiple charges and I think is the same cost?

tired bear

#

Would sending earrings be helpful for those without telepathic abilities?

tired bear
#

on the other hand, having a device for private calls to mimic discord souds fun

winged terrace
#

it probably wouldn't be common, but so far none of us are stealthy and thought that might help

tired bear
#

ima kalashtar i just speak in your mind 🙂

winged terrace
#

I knew you could, i wasn't sure if you could have us talk back multiple times a day

supple rampart
#

A helm of telepathy would be neat then

quartz zinc
#

Oh one thing to mention as we’ll be sure to go to #sign-up-confirmations to confirm your spots in my game

supple rampart
winged terrace
#

I do start with a shield and could give you mine

supple rampart
#

That should work, do you want the other infusion

tired bear

so when ever i chose a person to communicate with they can communicate back until I cut that link, if I read it right

@untold pine welcome to the one-shot! You can find extra info on character creation as well as house rules up top.

# winged terrace Maybe instead of healing potions, a restorative ointment? It works better and ha...

Restorative Ointment 2 to 5 uses for 450 gp for average healing of 11 so up to 22-55 in total
Healing Potion Common 1 use 125 gp for average healing of 7
Yea Ointment is far more cost effective even if would come with the lowest uses it would takes 4 common healing potions 500 gp to have an average healing above the ointment.
The only positive I can think of for the healing potions is multiple characters would have a healing potion, so if we end with any extra money 1 or 2 extra healing potion would be good.

untold pine
#

Hi!

#

Oh I have to change that one sec

winged terrace
#

Howdy

supple rampart
#

Hey

untold pine
#

There we go

winged terrace
#

So currently were looking at possibly, Restorative ointment: 450, Broom of Flying 800, and Healing Potions 125X.

supple rampart
#

The shield can be removed thanks to you

#

also Stat increasers/Flight (Ogre Strength) 800gp

winged terrace
#

damn thought i was slick

untold pine
#

I am deciding on a race/class it looks like we have a warlock, a fighter/druid, and an artificer?

supple rampart
#

yep

winged terrace
#

Has anyone heard from Impel?

supple rampart
#

I don't think so they seem to be trapped in a rito game. Gone to soon rip

winged terrace
#

I have the same crutch, I can't judge.

supple rampart
#

A broom would be good any ways even if its 800. So with an ointment that would be 1250 total or 750 gp unspent. That would mean we could get one more magic item and 1-2 healing potions for the rest.

#

Maybe a Deck of Wonder reason funny and I rest my case.

untold pine
#

I'm thinking Paladin

#

Never played a full paladin before

#

I have an unhealthy love of multiclasses

supple rampart
#

I am the very opposite.

winged terrace
#

Multiclassing can make some awesome builds

#

Hi hi! Just reading through the characters and PLEASE not a failed landlord specifically for magic items 🤣 I love it Rime

#

I’m thinking about being a cute/creepy lil half… Kenku/goblin most likely with either goblin or kenku stats. Might be a rogue. Haven’t decided yet.

#

Might actually keep the name Umby

We all start with one uncommon item automatically? Hm

Hm

#

Guess I’m going to be a bard

#

Cute/Creepy Bard ftw!

winged terrace
#

Healers!!!!! We no longer need the healing balm

supple rampart
#

Having extra healing is always good plus Artificer, Paladin, Bard, and Druid all have somekind of healing.
But another good item would be weapon of warning 600 gp

winged terrace
#

Probably for the Paladin?

supple rampart
#

I was thinking on the casters that way they have a higher chance to go first and laydown control spells.

#

But its good on anyone really

winged terrace
#

I ended up taking the sentinel shield and you plan on infusing one right? So prob not one of us

untold pine
#

Deck of many things! Deck of many things! Deck of many things!

#

It’s my favorite item lmfao

#

In all seriousness though I’ll look through some magic items on my lunch break tmrw

supple rampart
#

Its diet deck of many things

supple rampart
#

Also Elemental Gem 450 gp for a Fire Elemental the biggest break glass item

quartz zinc
untold pine
#

I have my own deck of many things and deck of many fates combo pack lmao

tired bear
tired bear
#

unless you meant you both have a shield one sentinel and one plus one I might have read it wrong

winged terrace
#

I took a sentinel shield as my personal magic item and plan to give Rime my Nirmal shield from my starter. He intends to infuse that with something.

untold pine
winged terrace
#

I feel that, I often build for the meme. I prebuild alot if characters and Hearth is one that was built to turn into giant dinosaurs at level 5 rather than fight super well.

#

I don't plan to do that for this one shot. It feels like there needs to be more backstory for that.

tired bear
#

God she was fun to play…

IMG_3593.png
tired bear
#

But you are right on the backstory, it needs to make sense

winged terrace
#

I agree, most of my multiclasses sit around lvl 10 for maximum goof, but I prebuild with the intent to scale the level to whatever is played at the table so I try to have their level at the minimum for I want to accomplish so I can drop them in more often.

hot token
#

Oooh, so my character will be Umbra Poppins, a cute but also scary kenku/gobling College of Whispers Bard with big ears and eyes and it looks like they see and hear everything. They carry with them an umbrella like Mary Poppins which is a broom of flying that I chose for my one uncommon item, and I haven’t thought much further than that yet. Got ideas on a voice though that I’ll work on.

untold pine
#

Okay, so I might not go Paladin anymore

#

I had an idea for a truly broken cleric 😂 can heal 40hp at lvl 1

#

Although this is more RP so we might not need the healing

winged terrace
#

You just watched the life cleric with magic initiate druid video didn't you?

untold pine
#

I was doing math when that video came up on my youtube shorts feed and saved me a fuck ton of time (and math, I was at 26hp somehow)

untold pine
#

I think I’m gonna go with the Paladin, I’m too tired to try and make a new character lmao. How are we doing stats again?

winged terrace
#

Point buy

#dnd-one-shots message

#

You can find hp and other character creation info there

untold pine
#

Okay cool thanks

#

I’ll get it all done before Friday, probably during class tomorrow

tired bear
#

Ok so what are we buying with the money? Can we like make a list with the prices and whats left of the money?

winged terrace
#

I think we were looking at possibly a weapon of warning (600) and maybe the restorative ointment(450) and/or healing potions(125) if yall didn't pick up healing spells.
So we have between 1400 and like 700ish gold since other items on the list were picked up.

tired bear
#

Will we have a bag of holding as one of the magic items? or we dont think we need it?

supple rampart
#

Probably don't need a bag of holding. But I think a Elemental Gem - Fire Elemental is such a good investment.

#

So I would say the list would probably be something like the following: Weapon of Warning 600, Elemental Gem 450, and Restorative Ointment 450. Leaving 500 so basically 1 last item.

winged terrace
#

The bag of holding might a good one for that. Alternatively, I'd like to throw a decanter of endless water in the ring. With the quest having a town raid set up, it might be useful to make a barrier with the water that could be created.

supple rampart
untold pine
#

Everything is done!

tired bear
#

Why an elemental gem?

supple rampart
#

Just a really strong summon just in case. Seeing that we are heading into a "oncoming stampede of monsters", a fire elemental (https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/16861-fire-elemental) would be great for that.

This magic weapon grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it when it's used to make a ranged attack, and it ignores the loading property if it has it.

If the weapon lacks ammunition, it produces its own, automatically creating one piece of magic ammunition when the wielder makes a ranged attack with it. The ammunition created by the weapon vanishes the instant after it hits or misses a target.

@serene umbra

#

Weapon of Warning 600, decanter of endless water 400, Elemental Gem 450, and Restorative Ointment 450. Just a baseline list.
