The D&D 30 Day Challenge - Day 6 – Favorite Deity

Well, as with most things game related this has a complex answer. While we have played in a mostly Forgotten Realms world, it is a home-brew version where pretty much any deity was acceptable. As such, of the divine based characters I have played, 2 were clerics of Pelor, a Greyhawk deity, 1 was a paladin of Helm, a Forgotten Realms deity, 1 was a cleric of Heironeous, another deity of Greyhawk, and one was a cleric of Occipitus, not a deity at all really, but a plane of existence that kind of sits on the Abyssal range. However, it was formed from a fallen part of the Celestial planes, so it’s kind of lost in between. Now that we are playing in Golarion, my current cleric is of Ra, an ancient god of Osirion.

The D&D 30 Day Challenge - Day 5 – Favorite Die or Dice

By far my favorites are my newest set of dice, the Q-Workshop Pathfinder Metal Dice set from their recent Kickstarter campaign. I got the silver dice and they are amazing. Well weighted and balanced, beautiful, smooth rolling and they make a great sound rolling into the dice tray. My only minor quibble is that they are sometimes hard to read. The numbers are small, so it can sometimes be difficult to tell if it rolled a 6, a 9 or a P (They replace the top number on each die with the Pathfinder P symbol. i.e. on a d20, P means 20, on a d8 it means 8, etc).

The D&D 30 Day Challenge - Day 3 – Favorite PC Class

Number one is wizard. My all time favorite character is a human wizard, a former Aes Saidar of Cormyr, currently evil thanks to his lust for power and reading a Tome of Evil. Wizards tend to use thought over brute force, which is my preferred mode of operation. That’s not the same as being passive, however. He prefers to act rather than endlessly discuss possible actions and had a habit of wandering off. It got him in trouble more than once.

I have to admit, though, that Pathfinder’s Golarion is starting to grow on me.

The D&D 30 Day Challenge - Day 2 – Favorite PC Race

I’m a bit torn between human and dwarf. I tend to prefer humans for my arcane and roguish characters and dwarves for my divine and warrior type characters, but I don’t tend to favor one over the other. For instance, in the Shackled City campaign I played human bard. I was only moderately interested in him as a character, but was not disinterested enough to have him written out or killed off. It’s the only time I’d played a bard and wanted to see it through at least a ways. Through some events, he eventually had all his bard levels changed for a modified/custom cleric class. He ended up being one of my all time favorite characters, even though most of my clerics are dwarves.

    The D&D 30 Day Challenge - Day 1 – How you got started

    I posted these once before, but my site died and a lot of my old posts are gone forever. So I’m going to run this again. So this D&D 30 day challenge has been floating around for a while and I decided to join in. I’m expanding the definition to include Pathfinder as well as Dungeons and Dragons since that’s the rules system I primarily play in right now. I was first introduced to D&D in elementary school. From time to time I would sit on the steps with some classmates during recess and we would play through modules, both official and homebrew. My interest waxed and waned over the rest of my elementary, junior and senior high school years. I had no interest in Greyhawk or most of the other campaign worlds, but if a session was going to be run in the Dragonlance world of Krynn, I was there.
