Well, turtlebutter, that could potentially be a monk, but I'm tempted to say that all ponies have Improved unarmed strike as a default, which makes a rogue focused on hoof-to-hoof combat viable.

Oh. In That case if we use 70/75. But looking at it now, 70-75 does make things a little less interesting.

I thought Lurker was changing it to 70 Base Points with 75 for Earth Ponies

Yea thats what I was thinking, like a rogue/brawler or something.

Ive never played D&D, just a teensy bit of Werewolf/Vampire and Computer based RP Gs like Skyrim and Fallout 3/NV

Lets keep the minimum 8 points for stats rules, shall we?

thought min was 6

Once you guys settle on a standard base points and min stats I'll distrubute them

Mm... maybe Ballad? Both narrative, and music, and sounds nice.

For Stats, I figure something like this:

CHA: 12
INT: 11
WIS: 10
DEX: 12
CON: 8
STR: 7

Not... great stats to start with, huh? Oh well, everyone is likely using poor stats off the start. 'Cept the EP's. This is assuming we're still using 60 points off the start, not sure if we changed that.

#147260 Applelight Limited Thu, 5th Apr '12 4:10:13 PM from Manehattan to Canterlot

Oh wait, there's a minimum?

I'll go with this If we stick with 60, though

STR: 7 CON: 11 DEX: 11 INT: 16 WIS: 7 CHA: 8

Yeah, I know we through around the idea of changing the point total, but I don't think we ever decided whether we actually were or not.

Minimum. Because anything below 6 is basically crippled in that stat. anything below 8 is relatively incompetent.

Min is 6, but remember that such low stats can be pretty hurtful.

As for the total, I'm leaning toward erring on the side of excess and going with 70/75 to start. If characters are too powerful I can just crank up the difficulty.

This is still going on? Guys, I like ponies as much as the next guy and I love D&D, but this is getting ridiculous.

Can you think inside the chimney?

Shit, must rework it.

Maybe we should make a RP thread.

Apocalypse: Dirge Of Swans.

#147268 kegisak Thu, 5th Apr '12 4:12:25 PM

Looking at it, having 5 extra points to throw around would help me a lot... If we do raise it, I wouldn't go for any more than 65-70.

Mmmight be a good idea. Where to put it, though? Thread Games? RP's?

#147269 Turtlebutter Thu, 5th Apr '12 4:12:59 PM from Baltimare

So we're talking 65ish points to distrubute and a minimum of 6 in a stat?

Yeah, I need a break from RPG talk. How 'bout dat episode in two days?

It's a pinkie pie episode. Therefore Ginger will flip his shit.

The episode looks pretty fun. I'm only sorry that Pinkie most likely won't make a competent detective.

Roleplaying Discussion is probably the best place for it. The tvtropes forum actually has a whole RPG subforum; with separate threads for signups, discussion (where this stuff would go), and a third thread for the actual Roleplaying. I certainly wouldn't be averse to moving discussion over there so we don't bother people who aren't interested.
