MuadDib, Wood Elf asked the same two questions - this is what Reefy wrote:
quote:
Woody, some info for you. Yes, arctic dwarves come from the Great Glacier but there is a small settlement of about 40 in the Silver Marches. I think it might be in either the Druarwood or the Night Trees, somewhere in the foothills of the Spine of the World anyway. I'll let someone with the book handy confirm exactly where though.
As for appearance, the following is paraphrased from Races of Faerűn, p.9: They have short beards and twisting moustaches. Eyes are bright blue and they are ruddy cheeked. Although pale skinned, almost blue in colour, they often get badly sunburnt but without suffering any ill effects from it. Hair is curly, white, and usually very long. They also go barefoot and favour simple tunis in terms of dress.
Hammer added (also Races of Faerűn, pg. 9):

| Woody and all, I'm building everyone's character from the ground up to see if everything checks out, and to see if anything comes up that could be changed or improved. I will e-mail back if there are any changes, and if I don't by the time we start then there are no changes. May take a few days or more once you post. Right now I am working on the first two I received (PDK's and Sarelle's) and have not done any of the others. |

| There are several times that I've done this and found small errors, some my own, that overall aren't going to affect much, but those extra skill points, GP's, etc. can help a low level character. Also, having an extra eye look over something can help with suggestions about the characters we may not have thought of. |

Ok, this is mostly the same as Woody's character and thanks again Woody for all the help with my stats. Hammer, if there is a problem with any of the stats, please just change them, cause its all faith from here basically.
As for the story, this is basically a tentative story where some of the finer points are coming straight out of my thumb, but its meant more to illustrate our characters, rather than their brief history, since they are afterall only level 1.
Characters:
Darube and Dale are alike as it is possible for Dwarves to be. Notwithstanding the fact that most other races think all Dwarves look alike, Darube and Dale have often impersonated each other. Those taking a closer look, and applying clinical minds to the task would notice that Dale's hair is a few shades lighter and more borderline white compared to Darube's slightly more yellow hair. In physical senses, Dale is slightly lighter than his twin brother, being more inclined to feats of the mind, and dexterous use of his fingers.
Dale has always been the more accomplished thinker of the two, the brain to Darube's Pinky (can I say that?). History has shown Dale to be the planner while Darube, being possessed of a permanent cheery disposition, is relegated to the role of executioner. This has often landed them rather complicated messes from which Dale has had to creatively spring them. On the other hand, Darube has always displayed a lot more wisdom than his impetuous brother, and has forged a much closer link with their chosen deity Moradin. Dale is a notoriously hard Dwarf to get along with peacably, being sultry and prone to fits of sullenness and extreme introversion. His only companion in thought is his brother Darube. Darube on the other hand is a hearty and boisterous character, who despite his attempts to not shine a spotlight on his brother, finds himself often in large company, and well liked to boot. He always runs his idea by his brother before acting though, getting the seal of approval from the person who he is constantly reminded, is his older brother.
History:
Neither Darube nor Dale know exactly where it is they originated from. Being possessed of interminably curious natures, both of them spent most of their youth (a rather prolonged time for a Dwarf) travelling and exploring, instead of more studious persuits. Their first waking memory - besides of course with numerous run-ins with the law - is of them being taken out my a number of hooded Dwarves and plonked down in a region they came to know as the Spine of the World.
It was here that they travelled to the towns of repute in Icewind Dale and made many friends, at least by their estimation. Friends who later betrayed the brothers by suggesting that another region may be better suited to their particular personalities. It was with after this request that the brothers made their way to the settlement they had gathered information on. The settlement was apparently inhabited by their kinsmen (for all Dwarves are kin they thought) and was located near to the region famous for housing the town of Silverymoon.

Eh, MaudDib there are quite a few things you copied that need to be changed for the Rogue class. Such as the special abilities Rogues get Sneak Attack instead of Wild Empathy like Rangers. If you need help I'll try to go over it with you.
Background looks great though Now we need to go over how we got from the settlement near Silverymoon to Sundabar. |

| Oh yeah, MaudDib, change your items too especially armor and weapons you can leave the rest. You will most likely want masterwork studded leather armor. Check out what masterwork weapons you can get for free as regeonal equipment from Silverymoon to replace the masterwork chainshirt I chose. Something small and light fitting for a Rogue |

It depends on what sort of rogue do you want to be, and also your plans for the future. I've spent a fair bit of time with Rogues (LOVE THEM!) So I could offer a bit of advice.
If you want to be a skills man then light armour is the way forward so you don't get that armour check penalty. You'll be fine on reflex saves with evasion so the group scout won't get pummelled too much.
If you want to be a fighter type rogue they can do awesome damage with sneak attacks, I suggest some of these feats:
Weapon Finesse (in 3.5 do you take it for each weapon seperately like in 3.0 or not?)
Combat Reflexes -> Expert tactician, Expert tactician allows you a free attack against a creature in melee with you that is denied it's dex bonus. As a fighting rogue no-dex bonus is your livelihood, means sneak attacks ahoy!
For the longer term you can fight with two rapiers like me, it means bigger penalties to hit but when you get some keen ones 'and' improved critical you have a crit range of 12-20. Alternatively go for two nice light weapons to get the best attack bonus, more attack means more sneak attacks :). Remember anything with for example +2dmg for example is multiplied in criticals but +1d6 fire for example is not. so a weapon doing 1d4+2 in a critical does 2d4+4. a weapon doing 1d4+1d6 in a critical does 2d4+1d6.
As a scout rogue obviously cloaks/boots of elvenkind are extremely useful, also a ring of jump (+30) comes in handy.
You can be the charming rogue but with our paladins and bard (:)) that shouldn't be necessary.
Lastly you can fight at a range, rogues are proficient with crossbows and I believe a shortbow too. If you're multiclassing barbarian/rogue (can't remember if you said you are), then aside from overkill on the uncanny dodge you will also probably have good strength, do might shortbows exist? Might want to look into that. With a ranged weapon you can also wear a buckler, make sure you get MW or +1 though, since they can add nicely to your ac with no armour check penalty (-1 for a normal one), and no attack bonus penalty (-1 if using a buckler and two weapons).
Hope this helps a bit |

Is it just me, or are Wood Elf and MuadDib already sounding like Dale and Darube?
Wood Elf does the stats, whilst MuadDib does the background / Dale does the thinking, whilst Darube does the action!
To fix this
Get rid of the ranger abilities - favored enemy, Track, and wild empathy.
A rogue's first-level abilities (from Player's Handbook v3.5, page 50-51) are:
Class skills: Appraise, Balance, Bluff, Climb, Craft, Decipher Script, Diplomacy, Disable Device, Disguise, Escape Artist, Forgery, Jump, Knowledge (local), Listen, Profession, Search, Sense Motive, Sleight of Hand, Spot, Swim, Tumble, Use Magic Device, Use Rope.
BAB: +0
Fort: +0, Ref: +2, Will: +0.
SA:
- Sneak attack +1d6 (deal 1d6 extra damage when terget is denied Dexterity bonus to AC or when rogue flanks target).
- Trapfinding (only rogues can use Search to locate traps with DC higher than 20; only rogues can use Disable Device to disarm magical traps).
Hope that helps |

Hehehe you are soo right
No worries MaudDib if I had known you needed help with the rest I would have. Your skills should be fine. I may have forgotten to add +4 to your hide skill for being a small character. Otherwise use Sarelles hints for now. And Kaladorns for the future.
I sugguest looking at the Harpoon for a ranged weapon and then something light for up close. Hmm maybe a light hammer or light pick or somesuch. |

One more thing MaudDib don't forget to add Dodge under your feats
Oh and about our patron dieties too should we worship the same one or different ones? I put Marthammor Duin because he seems more inclined towards the Rangers point of view. Maybe you should choose one more Rogueish? It would give us one more thing to argue about  hehe. |

| I like the idea of having one set of twins being very alike, while the other set are opposites almost. Of course they can both be almost opposties if that's the way everyone wants to play it. |

Forgot to mention improved feint. If you have a good bluff skill it allows you to feint in combat as a move equivalent action. meaning you can deny a mob its dex bonus to ac on a success, and thankfully get a sneak attack in.
reefy and I are kind of similar twins, not completely alike though but not different like Maud and Woodelf.
I'll give you a sneak preview of the history, I phoned up Reefy and told him my idea that he was the 'favoured' twin. Turned out he'd thought exactly the same only I was the favoured one lol |

Dales Hide Armor is made from the fur of a Winter Wolf that tore up his favorite old shirt I know Darube doesn't have the skills to craft a Masterwork item but it makes for a good story!
MaudDib, a few more things, make your AC = 4 instead of 5.
Add (Regeonal equipment) next to the Masterwork Shortsword so Hammer knows thats your free equipment.
Add a Masterwork Light Pick (1d3 x4) if you still want one.
Add Dodge to your Feats.
Thief toolset does exsist and you can get it in masterwork quality too! Change it to Masterwork Thieves Tools.
You get to choose one more language since Dale has a higher Int bonus than Darube. I would sugguest Gnome it would be funny for you to laud that over Darube who has trouble speaking Common even
I can't find that Diety list I found online earlier so just go with Moradin
You also may have quite a bit of money left to spend. Though it might be good to start with some extra cash too.

Interesting stuff, hammer - and nice to see things kicking off. But one question does arise -
How do you propose Guaygrek (and possibly also the Artic Dwarf twins) should fit into this? They don't have much connection to Moradin and his church. If you wish me to work around this just say and I'll think something up. |
