Newly posted by Wizards: the Tiefling Warlord!
Brief rundown:
- Melee character (Str 16) with longsword
- “Face” of the party: (Cha 13) Diplomacy +6, Intimidate +6, Bluff +3
- Abilities to aid other PCs – they get +2 to attack & +4 damage when they spend an action point; +2 initiative; and allows other PCs to shift around more easily.
I suggest Josh remains playing the Dwarf Fighter for his first game – it’ll be a lot easier. If anyone wants to shift around and play another PC, post here!
The Party
- Dwarf Fighter – Josh
- Half-Elf Cleric – Sarah
- Dragonborn Paladin – Greg
- Human Wizard – Adam
- Halfling Rogue – Nate
- Tiefling Warlord – ???
Note I still will only have 5 PCs, its just there’s an extra option to play for the first session.
Just a warning: the warlord is missing their iconic class feature, inspiring word. Supposedly it’s healing word, but charisma-based instead of wisdom based. Hopefully WotC will provide more clarification than that.
Apparently it’s there now. 🙂
Sarah has leapt at the class and will now be playing it for some reason…
Cheers,
Merric
Yep, WotC got the message and fixed it. I’ll admit – I’m really chomping at the bit to play a warlord and a fighter, myself. WotC did a great job with giving a cleric alternative and a front line tank.
