Topic: The Lost Mine of Phandelver Q&A Subject: coming down with something
i'm coming down with something... likely the flu. chills give it away for me. normally, i'm super warm... except when i'm sick. it's my kryptonite.
i'm going to try hard to post something now before I got further down this rabbit hole, but if I don't post this week, you know what's up. npc if necessary.

i just like warlocks.
i like the pact of book one best actually... and tied to the Ancient One sounds pretty awesome RP-wise... this maddening being whispering occult knowledge into your mind. your book of shadow becomes this journal of chaotic scribbled and deranged mumblings... like a stream of consciousness always half-baked on meth.

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Really?
To be honest, when you said Dwarf Warlock, I thought you were planning on doing the Fiend / Pact of Blade route... Get the medium armor and STR/CON stat boosts from the Mountain Dwarf, add in the auto temp-HP every time you kill a foe, mix in the auto-proficient pact weapon (Greataxe/Greatsword/Maul) and Thirsting Blade / Life-drinker invocations and you have the base of an decent melee fighter.
Add to that your decent range attack with Eldritch Blast (and additional Agonizing Blast/Repelling Blast invocations) and your "I add extra damage to everything I hit" Hex spell... pretty sweet.
And then you still get a few extra battlefield control spells/invocations. All with extra RP flavored sauce.

This other nice perk for the Warlock is that their spells refresh every SHORT or long rest, where as the cleric has to wait for a good night's sleep in order to refresh.

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Spells
In 5e, spellcasting is split into 3 different parts:
Spells Known
Spells Prepared
Spell Slots
For a Cleric:
Spells Known equals "all the spells under the Cleric spell list (except the Cantrips) + all the spells listed in their Divine Domain". These are all the spells that the Cleric knows and are the list from which the Cleric can select his Prepared Spells.
Spells Prepared equals "Wisdom mod + Cleric Level" spells. In addition, the spells listed in his Divine Domain are automatically prepared. So, for Oskarr, he automatically has Bless and Cure Wounds prepared, plus he can prepare 3 (WIS mod) +1 (Cleric Lvl) additional spells. These are the actual spells that Oskarr can spend his daily spell slots casting.
Spell Slots equals the number spells Oskarr can actually cast daily, which is listed in the Cleric table. For Oskarr, that number is 2. So Oskarr, can cast two spells from his prepared list (Bless, Cure Wounds, Command, Healing Word, Guiding Bolt, Shield of Faith) each day.
At the end of a long rest, his Spell Slots refresh and he can select a new list of Prepared Spells.
That's my understanding of how spellcasting works for Clerics.

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Oskarr is good
Oskarr look good. I noted you took out all the spells I had listed as his prepared 1st level spells. Do you just want me to post in game what spells I have prepped each day?

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Point Buy
What if we all just used the point buy system or take the standard array?
otherwise, i think, if you got more than a 10 point difference between PCs attribute scores, it will be hard for those with less to keep pace with those with more.
my two cents

You have to choose a sub race and it adds to the general race bonuses

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Totally cool about sticking to the opening post
so, so far we have
a human fighter (padre)
a dwarf warlock (schnozzle)
has anyone else decided on what they hope to play?
is a cleric as important as odyson suggests?

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Thanks for the welcome
Lano, I am wondering if it would be okay if we added the Half-Elf and Half-Orc races to the list of playable races?
I would like to play either a Half-Elf Rogue (a swashbuckler from Neverwinter) or a Half-Orc Barbarian (an outcast from the North)
If you'd rather keep it as is, I can probably come up with the iconic Halfling Rogue.

Topic: Let's play edition 5 Subject: Can I play?
I have a little bit of experience with 5e (just two adventures), haven't played the one you've mentioned.
I be interested in playing. Barbarian, Wizard, or Rogue would all be fine with me. Any preference?
