No need so would a couple of silver daggers and a silver rapier be ok or just a rapier within the 90gc budget and do clothes need to be bought or can they be warn already.

Generally speaking, unless the clothes are particularly fine or special in some other way, you don't need to worry about clothing yourself. I believe you're assumed to be able to maintain an outfit of up to 10 gp in value from the start without having to purchase it. Start building a wardrobe and that changes, but for now.

A Rapier is not a light weapon, as such a silver one would cost 110 gold, well beyond your budget. A silver dagger could be done for 22 gold, but you'd have to give up on one of the other items I mentioned.

I should note, Having a silver weapon for a backup is a good idea, but using a silver weapon for your main one is not. Silvering one's weapon reduces the damage it causes. The only case where it helps rather than hurts is with the occasional creature that can't be harmed with steel, but can with silver. Werewolves for instance.

You probably don't need to agonize over your starting equipment in any case. Your new teammates are likely to offer a loan for better gear shortly after you join them. Just make a good first impression.

Thanks for the info so I cannot wait to begin the game I wonder what we will be hit with.

Okay, you still need to get your character sheet filled out. Need to get equipment and feats up there, and I'd suggest writing down your class features like sneak attack for quick reference.

The box labeled Character Combat Info needs things like your AC, Saves, and Initiative modifier (Which is equal to your Dexterity mod by default)

Feel free to take a look at my sheet for Bastion if you need an example, he's got a lot of stuff up there you don't need to worry about, but it should give you an idea.

I have and I am so confused but I do have my feats up there but the health system and that is puzzling to make male out. And again why can I not by my equipment besides clothing in a town at the start?

Oh, right, I knew there was something else you needed to know.

Okay, a rogue has a d6 hit die. Its pretty low (Other classes range from d4 to d12), but that's part of why I suggested a good constitution score.

For this level only, your health will be 6+Con, for a total max HP of 8. For later levels, you will roll a 1d6, and add the result along with your Con to your previous max HP.

Edit: you can buy your stuff in a town if you really want, but its actually cheaper to do so now, since technically the group is in a high value area (The nation's capital), bumping up the price of everything by 10%.

Ok health is at 8 my fist do 1 point of damage + strength bonus. My bite will do 1d4 damage only. The pegasus part of you does give you a +1 natural armor that increases +1 per three levels. You do heal twice as fast as normal humanoids so instead of 1 per 8 hours rest you heal 2. Your feet are hooved like a horse and you can run faster base speed is 40 is what KN said.

Okay, +1 natural armor is a nice bonus, you can go ahead and add that in. Make sure to note down the rest somewhere.

Base speed of 40 is pretty good, most people start off with 20 or 30. What that means is when you take the Move action, you can go up to 40 feet on your turn.

Okay, so, the basics. For simple things, just describe what you want to do, and it is done. You may need to pass a check to jump a 10 foot wall, but you don't need one to jump a 2 foot obstacle.

If the Dungeon Master calls for a skill check, you'll roll a d20 and add the appropriate skill modifier.

If attacking something, you have at least 2 rolls to make. An attack roll to see if you beat the target's AC and hit him (Will be 1d20+4 for you for now). And a damage roll to see how much damage is caused (1d6 for the rapier, shortbow or shortsword, 1d4 for the dagger)

If your attack roll has a result within the critical threat range of your weapon, you score a critical hit, multiplying the damage by the listed modifier (Usually just x2, in some cases x3 or x4). Most weapons get a critical hit only when the 1d20 rolls a 20. Your rapier gets one when the 1d20 rolls an 18,19,or 20.

You're going for two weapon fighting, so can get in multiple strikes per round, although at a -2 penalty for all attacks involved. You can even add in your bite attack, at another -5 penalty to hit for just that attack.

Your full attack would then look like this: rapier 1d20+2, 1d6 (X2 crits on 18-20) dagger 1d20+2, 1d4 (X2 crits on 19-20) bite 1d20-3, 1d4 (X2 crits on 20)

And your single attack like this: rapier 1d20+4, 1d6 (X2 crits on 18-20)

Any questions about that before I move on?
