Sorry guys some IRL stuff came up this week and I have not been in the mood to update. Everything is starting to even back out though so I should get something up soon, if not tomorrow. Thank you for being patient with me!

A basic breakdown of my last two weeks:

Depression > Insomnia > Sickness > Depression > Wife got Sick > Job Interview > Job Interview > Doctor's Appointments > I'm Sick Again

As a plus I am almost certain I got the job I interviewed for so that's a lot of anxiety off my shoulders. I'm working on the update and will have it up in the next day or two. Thanks for being patient with me guys!

Holy crap, are you me? I've had less luck with interviews, but yeah, my depression's been really bad lately too. I'll try to get something up ASAP though.

There's a few old standards you see but in the end I follow my heart and go with the personalities that I like the most meshed with a balanced party comp.

You know, ordinarily, I'd jump at the chance to join a game where Kung-Fu Hanuman is a legitimate character option, but I think one 4e is all I can manage for now. Good luck with that! I'll be reading along.

Update's up

Hey Plowforged dawg sorry yours is the thinnest premise but I promise your subplot will be good once we get into the nitty gritty

Everyone interacting with NPCs I will try to respond to these on an individual basis for speed's sake so if somebody sees me respond out of order that's why.

We shouldn't have any more interruptions like this for a while. Sorry for taking so long, guys!

TheAnomaly: Feb 20, 2003

No problem. I finally leveled up, just took master at arms for the generic +1 to all weapons for now, will probably retrain it once I get a signature weapon of some sort. Took the Hide Expertise feat to add my con to AC instead of Dex/Int as my feat for 2, grabbed the endurance utility power Inspiring Fortitude. Should cover the changes.

code:

Plowforged, the Grain Reaper						 
HP: 39/39 (THP:0)        AC:   19()    Passive Insight: 10
Surges: 12/12 (V: 9)     For:  16()    Passive Perception: 10
Initiative: +1   	 Ref:  12()    Action Points: 1/1
Speed: 6     	         Will: 12()
Languages: Common,

Melee Basic: Silver Battle Axe (Versatile, High Crit) (Two Handed) +6, 1d10+5
Ranged Basic: Adamantium Spear (Versatile, Heavy Thrown, Brutal 1) +6, 1d8+4
At Will			                Encounter		     Daily
Howl of Fury                            [ ] Warforged Resolve       [ ] Bloodhunt Rage
Devastating strike                      [ ] War Cry                 [ ] Destroy All Humans
Melee Basic                             [ ] Shout of Terror         [ ] Inspiriing Fortitude
Ranged Basic                            [ ] Second Wind             [ ] Meteor (Item Power)

Conditionals/Resists:
+2 to saves against ongoing damage (Warforged Resilience)
Once per turn when your attack bloodies an enemy, each adjacent enemy takes 9 (Thunderborn Wrath and Rage)
+1 to all weapon attacks, Sheathe and draw as a minor action (Master at Arms)
Resist 5 Radiant (Starmetal Ring)
May Add Con instead of Dex/Int to AC (Hide Armor Expertise)
+2 damage and +4 intimidate against humanoids

Update's up

Have you been applying Duke's penalties to the rolls? The Stealth roll looks right, and the attack looks right, if I had CA. I think..? Too many +1s...
Also, Blackguards are proficient with all simple and martial weapons, so Longbow will work just fine. Thanks!

[edit]
So, I can have this one? If so I'll edit in the AC and REF.
_{pre:

Stonewood Longbow - Military Weapon
1d10 damage - +2 weapon proficiency - range 15/30

This Longbow is made from a strange form of petrified wood. An engraving of Orcs stretches from the top
tip of the bow to the end of the limb. A second engraving of Orcs stretches from the bottom tip of the bow
to the end of the back. The engravings appear to be embellishments of the heroic deeds of a Father and Son.

This weapon can be used as a basic shield, even without proficiency, granting +1 AC and Reflex}
[/edit]

And, I forgot to edit in the collar's bonuses on my thingamabob, so here it is:

_{pre:
Greencliffe
HP: 34/34 (THP: 0) AC: 16 Passive Insight: 12
Surges: 11/11 (V: 8) Fort: 13 Passive Perception: 14
Initiative: +5 Ref: 17 Action Points: 1/1
Speed: 7 Will: 15
Languages: Common, Giant

At Will Encounter Daily
Dominator's Strike [ ] Dread Smite
Vengeance Strike [ ] Shroud of Shadow
Ranged Basic [ ] Vice's Reward
Melee Basic (DEX) [ ] Lifeblood

Conditionals/Resists:
Dark Menace: weapon attacks with CA deal CHA (+3) extra damage
Tyrant's Collar: +1 to attack rolls & +2 to damage rolls, when you have CA on the target
Hidden Sniper: targets you have partial concealment against grant CA to your ranged attacks
Necrotic Resistance: 5 + half-level
Disciple of Stone: gain 5 Temp HP when you spend a healing surge
Living Dead: If a power has different effects on living creatures and undead creatures, you choose which applies to you
Blood Dependency: SV -2 when bloodied
Spirit of Vice: once per round when you have Temp HP,
before making an attack roll,
deal damage to yourself equal to CHA (+3) as a free action,
gain a bonus to the damage roll equal to the damage taken}

Yeah, that's fine. I've just been going off what was on your character sheet, but +-1 wouldn't really have made a difference in any of the checks.

Sorry about the delay. I'm really indecisive about question-asking.

Well, as usual, take your time. Nobody wants you to get emotionally stressed out on our accounts. I'm assuming. I know I don't!

Depression is a disease. Don't even sweat it. Nobody has a legitimate reason to be mad at you for it, or any problems it causes.

You're doing fine, we went right into combat with yours and I wasn't initially sure of how I wanted to lay out what I had planned for you so the pacing is mostly my fault. You'll have a roleplay opportunity momentarily.
