Ah, I thought I was on the roof of the BUILDING, I was trying to climb the ladder during round one. Ah well. I'll climb it now then.

So. Um. The Steam sale happened. And then One Finger Death Punch happened.
Sorry. Update in the morning.

WOTC published some Errata, so I've picked through it and pulled out the stuff that matters to us.

Johanna:
Dwarves are proficient with the light hammer, not the throwing hammer.
The spells copied into a spellbook must be of a spell level the wizard can prepare.
A spellbook doesn’t contain cantrips.

Sweetpea:
The DM decides when circumstances are appropriate for hiding.
Also, the question isn't whether a creature can see you when you’re hiding. The question is whether it can see you clearly.

I think that's all. There will be some more things later, but let's not worry about that yet.

(Damage roll: 4+1, 4+1, 4+1! MAX DAMAGE)
Johanna smiles as she hears three hearty collisions of force against dragonscale and a roar of pain.

(Attack roll: 12+2)
Mirella's bolt flew much straighter, and hit the dragon in the neck, but it bounced off. Next time, maybe?

My mind made the sound effects for these actions.

Oh yeah, my character has been changed to reflect stuff.

I ended up taking abjuration specialist, and flipped my spells-no 4th cantrip yet.

...

As for the other thing, I might end up taking Reduce/Enlarge Person. AFAIK, making Sweetpea small wouldn't be a disadvantage-she'd get a stealth bonus (at GM discretion) and anything that leaves her inventory, like projectiles/arrows generally are supposed resize once they leave the reduced owners possession, so she probably wouldn't have to deal with the damage penalty at range...

If the GM rules the other way, I'll just resort to super sizing Arwen, and letting him tossing giant Javelins like Zeus.

Small Size does not grant a bonus on Stealth checks, because it does not do so to Halflings and Gnomes.

Ahah, but by your own errata admission reducing her size, could create potentially a 'circumstance appropriate for hiding"-an indirect buff, for when stealth checks would normally be impossible.

So it would. Let's say it gives Advantage on Stealth checks. Note that attacks will deal 1d4 less damage, in accordance to the spell description.

He's back online. I figure Sweetpea is going to do the same thing, so I'll prep the turn.
*anticipation intensifies*
