03-14-07, 09:16 PM Ok, here's the basic plan for my Ruins of Castle Greyhawk character. Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

"Zagig Yragerne"

Human (Flan)

Description: "A short, heavyset human with round, often flushed, face."

Weapon: Defending armour spikes (not proficient).

Armour: Full plate (never magical, chain shirt before that) + tower
shield (never magical). Magical vestments will provide the enhancement bonuses.

Modus Operandi: Uber-high AC self-healing tank. Can force people
to attack him (from level 3 and onward) using Good Karma; he simply burns a luck reroll (I have four per day) and an attack is forced to strike him instead of an ally (with the same roll; it can be used after the roll, but not result, is announced). At 6th I can also use Goad but that has a save. Still, that should provide a decent chance for enemy meleers to attack him above others.

Str: 14
Dex: 10
Con: 16
Int: 12
Wis: 8
Cha: 14

03-15-07, 02:27 AM The grand plan is to have approximately -37 to hit on my primaries. Zagyg, remember? Zagyg! It all makes sense!

He's not a damage dealer, more of a damage soak that can heal himself and others.

03-15-07, 02:55 PM Drop some of the Cures as you level up. You only need a couple of the better ones at any given time (+LVigour for out of combat)

..and you don't really need to spend that much space on your spells. Just list the changes each level.

I prefer to have the spells listed sperately to the character levels.

That's true. I'll amend the build to reflect that.

Done.
