Character fleshing out

Cakestrike said: Derek l. said: John-Paul K. said: Cakestrike said: A new Challenger approaches! Magnus is an iron golem who is quite into EWE [Eldrasia Wrestling Entertainment]. His story began in a fortress occupied by wizards. The fortress wasn't anywhere particularly. It was on a top of a mountain, far away from any kind of war, mischief and other kinds of madness. One day some wizard guy got an idea to build golems to hold off intruders. Others thought it was a great idea and threw a cheese party in honor of that idea. After months of work and many cheese parties later Magnus was made. However he was far from finished. The reason is that wizards love cheese. Even those who were allergic ate it. Even those who couldn't physically eat it loved it. They celebrated for even the smallest reasons. A new member joined the guild? Cheese party! Someone learned a spell? Cheese party! Someone found their lost socks? Cheese party! Someone has a birthday? F*** that! PRAISE THE CHEESE Anyway, The golem project took really long time finish due the cost of cheese parties. Most of the time Magnus was locked in a small dark room, with nothing to do or see. Whenever he was able to ask someone about all the delay, they gave him two words: cheese party. Magnus learned to hate cheese and parties. Just the thought makes him salty. 20 years later, the first iron golem was done...ish. Rumor has it someone would try to use Magnus to take over the fortress. Nobody knew if they should tust the rumor or not but no one took any chances. A final showdown between wizards had the glorious fort turned into a ruin. No one except Magnus survived. With no one to tell him what to do, Magnus looted the place and went off to exlore around the land.

This is my first time making a character sheet on my own, so I am a bit nervous. Tell me if I still have to change/add/remove things. as they are your fists you get preficency so its +4 to attack not +2 your skills are also all wrong you use the mod above the set of skills and you have proficencys i suggest athlethics and arobatics.you need a back ground and that would give more proficincys and items. anf you havent selected a fighting style since you have one weapon(technicly) take duleing witch makes the damage 1d8+6

As for his background, he never had a real job. All he did was some miscellaneous work. To be honest I might change the background if I find something better suited for Magnus.
^Can we comment without quotes from here on out? Its flooding the screen XD
Aye aye, captain!
pick militia if you free lanced say you had a stint with them(its also the suggested one for fighters)&nbsp;

Sounds like an awesome character, I'll remember to keep Jann's status as a wizard a secret when around him :) Btw if you are trying to get an idea of his weight, you just need to take the weight of a similarly sized human and multiply it by 7.9 (the density of iron) since humans have a density almost equal to water. That being said, iron is about 3-4 times denser than even the heaviest stones, and the smaller stone warforge said he was 4 tons so I think you can probably pick whatever weight you want as long as its not too crazy. Just to give you an idea though: 1 ton is the weight of a Full grown grizzly bear standing on its hind legs....with an even larger grizzly bear piggy backing it. The ground shakes, chairs groan, and its probably really hard to find a tree that will hold you. 2 tons is a massive grizzly bear being piggybacked by a rhino. Wooden chairs creak like you are murdering them, you have probably fallen through a floor at least once in you life, and if you have ever successfully climbed a tree it was probably left slanted. 4 tons is a rhino, on a larger rhino, on an even larger rhino, on top of a man. If the second floor of a building can support your weight you can rest assured that a casual jump will likely be all you need to bring you back down to the first floor. Your idea of climbing trees by this point is probably kicking them down and using the trunks as ramps. 7-8 tons is the weight of African elephant (RL's largest land animal) channeled into a humanoid body. Wood floors likely shatter themselves before you can step on them, a charging rhino would bounce backwards if it hit you, and if you have ever made it to the top of the second level of a tavern or bunkbed it likely ended in the death of everyone beneath you five second later.

-Magnus is cool with wizards. He just doesn't like cheese. -The idea of weighting around 8 tons would be silly but now I can't resist it. Sure, why not? -I'll give the miltia background some thought. Thanks for helping me out!
Oh thank goodness cakestrike. As rare as it may or may not be, Jann isn't a big fan of cheese. Too lacking in lethal amounts of sugar for his fussy tastebuds. Cheese cake &nbsp;on the other hand... Also, I think Jann will share V's feelings when Brazo first walks on freaking water.
Wait... He can walk on water?! I wonder if he can carry Magnus while doing so. Or be able to use his ranged attacks while piggybacked by Magnus. They would be The unstoppable Duo! The Ultimate Weapon of mass destruction! The weapon to surpass even Metal Gear!

That would make us a makeshift tank. I have a feeling that JP is going to nerf the living hell out of our Wombo Combo. This campaign is dumb and I love every seceond of it.
i also habe 15 ft kicks

I actually don't know if you could carry Cakestrike's character. Even with 20 str and a large huge gargantuan colossal carrying capacity multiplier, you still couldn't lift half of Magnus. I don't know what the GM gave your character as a max load though. Even if you can't carry each other, I think Magnus could definitely hold you down to keep you from flooring yourself after a cannon shot. You might even get advantage on the shot.

To be honest I wasn't expecting to be able to do something like that right from the start.&nbsp;But since we are both made out of metal, we could make ourselves stronger by upgrading&nbsp;our bodies. However I don't think anyone of us knows how to build golems or warforges. And even if we found someone who can, it would cost a lot and take some time. In a long run we might be able to pull it off if the conditions are met. TL;DR: No dosh , no time, no right blacksmiths = No super tanks

-I suppose you can use your feet like hands. And with those feet you can use your tools, right? -I'm not too confident about that name. Is it more powerful against dragons or something? -What if we called it Lockjaw Ravager

Cakestrike, from what I hear Brazo uses his head as a hammer. I'm guessing he is like the engineer from tf2 and hits something untill it either starts working or evolves into a stronger form. Btw here is the info on making a golem from scratch. Minor improvements wouldn't be too hard, but if you want any big projects done you are probably gonna need to find someone to do it for you.&nbsp;

I guess we are able to upgrade Magnus's bodyparts. He is somewhat unfinished. He could really use those improvements. 1 pound of iron costs 1 silver, meaning the costs are not TOO bad.&nbsp;
