Looking back at earlier posts, it looks like Pudney went for a Warlock.

I could re-adapt my Druid into a Cleric if we're in need of one, it'll mostly involve a minor shift of attributes and a quick rewording of the backstory to swap the nature references to ones about church related activities.

To be fair Bard/Druid should be able to uphold healing between them though I'm not sure what plans you chaps had for the characters.

suenstar · 5 Jul 2017 at 14:31

True, especially with the Druid & Cleric spell lists being very similar for healing spells.

Pudney is playing a Cleric, I'm playing Warlock. What posts are you guys reading

I was reading post #253.
I'm sure we'll get all the confusion cleared up soon enough.

Shamikebab · 5 Jul 2017 at 15:15

Yeah I'm including newts in the what posts are you guys reading part

suenstar · 5 Jul 2017 at 15:26

Simple solution to all of the confusion, we do a party of 7 Clerics.

Pudney sent me a character sheet for a Half Elf Warlock!

Shamikebab · 5 Jul 2017 at 17:12

That was me you numpty

Pudney · 5 Jul 2017 at 17:28

I definitely haven't sent any sheets and I'm making a dwarf cleric who runs about with a Warhammer. Also used to be a sailor.

Oh yeah.... looks shifty

By the sounds of things mt cleric may lean towards buffs rather than heals. And lightning. There will be lightning.

I will do some monk building tonight then

I know that feeling, this happened in a Dungeon world game i ran, Shami and Pudney may remember this.

I think Shami was the Druid, Pudney the ranger.

I remember that game, I was on good behaviour as I just shot everything I saw before we got close. My characters do tend to be murdering pyscopaths...

Tempest Domain?

I ended up going for a sailor themed background as well.

Pudney · 5 Jul 2017 at 18:06

Yeah, tempest domain. Working the lightning into the sailor background as well.

Pudney · 5 Jul 2017 at 22:42

Character sheet has been sent over.

Shamikebab · 6 Jul 2017 at 00:08

Ok I'm switching to sorcerer. Reading more into warlocks I think I'd get bored of Eldritch Blast being pretty much all you do in combat. Sorcerer sounds more fun. Will send over the sheet when I've adjusted my backstory slightly!

No1newts · 6 Jul 2017 at 11:31

I'm out for a business dinner tonight so it will probably be tomorrow evening before I get a look but I'll have a review and pull the strands together.

I believe it's just Pookie I'm waiting on now.
