Choices
When you join the game channel you're asked:
@PERSON (FIRST CHOICE / SECOND CHOICE) [GUILD?]
This is answered with two classes you wanna bring to the table. This conversation happens before character sheets are dished to players. This helps jump start the party dynamics conversation for the group.
Example:
- Tarnis (Oath of Devotion Paladin / Light Domain Cleric) [The Lost Heirs]
Equipment
- Starting Class Equipment + 400 gp
Magic Items
- Common Magic Items are 100 gp + Armor Costs
- Uncommon Magic Items are 350 gp + Armor Costs
- Rare Magic Items are 3500 gp + Armor Costs
Magic Items sold back before the first game are sold back at 50% costs unless you reach out to Toreg in #westwood-salvaging-lpbe-beta
Mundane items are sold back before the first game are sold back at 100% cost.
