I had forgot about it. Nice scene and it shows perfectly the fact that he is a Ronin. As for the backstory, I'll come up with something don't worry... ;) But my writing currently as backlog of a few items mostly lillie's log. Oh yeah the throwing stick for the direction part..

It's a great idea, well implemented. I like the thought and effort that went into crafting the cool backstory– particularly explaining his beginning again with a more personal faith.

(Kuwabatake is another name for the same character, he just obviously uses fake names.)

And when can I expect the backstory :) Or will you go with throwing sticks in the air at crossroads and decide then? :) So ka! And when can I expect the backstory :)

Or will you go with throwing sticks in the air at crossroads and decide then?

While the name of the character is a shameless rip from Jubei Kibegami main character of the Ninja Scroll anime. You guys are going all out today ;)

It's a class on the weak side and Stef was disappointed with it. And maybe create big tokens for him to plop on the table for all to see to remind them of all the cool auras the Shammy shares.

The first one had some typos that caused some problems, and I didn't like having to flip to the back of the book for new monster stats, but everything else is laid out to run smoothly. As far as character background, I just had a similar experience to you. A player's character was killed (thanks to a non-healing cleric) but he wasn't all that upset... he felt he wanted to play something else other than a rampaging barbarian. He wanted to still be a fighting character, but with some more interesting options. After looking through some books, he liked the idea of the Dragon Shaman. After talking back and forth, I suggested to him playing a Hobgoblin that his own character had killed before, brought back to life by a dragon and "shown the light." He loved the concept, and he ran with it, writing up an interesting story for him. This, in turn, gave me a bunch of new background fodder to play with. Win win for everyone.

I didn't think I was typing THAT bad. I know I'm bad with typos, but that seemed a little too consistent. That makes a lot more sense. I didn’t think I was typing THAT bad.
