[CLOSED] The Mountain & the Frost, a 5e One-Shot Adventure for 5th Level Characters

wizard adjacent it looks like

Looks like we all have some arcane ability at least

[Aburness]

I have no objection to any long-time members of the site creating an application. I am hoping to entice at least one new player, though, and they'll get special consideration. Just wanna be upfront about that.

As it looks like everyone so far is an existing player, how long did you want to wait for new players? (Mainly lets me know how long I have to come up with the role playing aspects - seem to have created my character completely backwards this time).

[Drew]

Probably just two or three more days unless a newbie shows up and needs more time.

[Aburness]

Still coming up with a back story, but character is done from a mechanical point of view.

I have my character done on Dndbeyond, I just need to transcribe it to the tangledweb sheet.

[southeast]

I have been transcribing it too...just a bit tedious and I've been busy. Also need to do my shopping for items but if others are ready to start I can accelerate and finish if I buckle down.

Question, to start with a familiar do I need to pay the component cost out of my starting gold?

[Drew]

Great. I've added your statuses to the bottom of the original post.

[southeast]

I edited to ask about having a familiar to start and whether I need to set aside gold for the component cost or not, what would be the answer to that?

Also just an fyi for others I decided to splurge and spend the entirety of my starting gold outside of what I got from background and class on a bag of holding as it is just convenient and saves me doing a bunch of shopping....

Here is my character who I will probably add minor backstory to given this is a one shot: Aelinoria

[Aburness]

Short backstory added.

[southeast]

Added my backstory too, just need answer on familiar

[Drew]

I apologize for missing your question, southeast. Yes, you'd need to spend the 10 gold to start with a familiar.

[Drew]

How is the transcription coming along, Luopo?

[southeast]

Unless other players are willing to maybe fund my food and lodgings (if any) at the beginning I think I will hold off on having a familiar as I would be left with nothing....unless I am allowed to sell off starting gear I don't need...like torches.

Gear I would sell would be: backpack and ink (subclass allows her to magically write without ink). Let me know if I can sell it, and I am fine if it is at half value.

[Drew]

You can absolutely sell starting gear.

[southeast]

Is it at full value or half price?

[Drew]

Merchants sell at full and buy at half.
