Our paladin inaugurated a temple of Bane.
>Banning optional rules.
ye dummy
yall mind if I drop this story now?
>5e
>playing with group for a few months
>some are better than others and we don't go without arguments from our very own that guy but never anything worth a story until a new kid came who wanted to get into DnD after seeing stranger things
>team consisted of paladin, warlock, dex EK, barbarian and str monk
>pretty unorthodox team but it really adds to the fun
>the new guy came in and made an arcane trickster
>half our team is true neutral with a few lawful neutrals on the side as most of the team didn't care about alignments, paladin is of course lawful good and the warlock was neutral evil but very calm and never displayed his character in town or when with the party.
>new guy is chaotic neutral, this usually wouldn't mean anything at my table but trust me it's important
>party is currently in downtime as they are going to be sent to another country by the crown to conduct a mission, but before I send the new guy into the deep end of session long RP, we pause the downtime session and the party takes up an errand to rid a hamlet of a land shark issue
>characters introduce themselves to the new guy
>paladin steps up and talks about his duty to his god
>new guy starts going full "sceptical mcbigbrainium" and starts calling the paladin an idiot for believing in the gods
>explain to him that it would be hard for his character to completely disbelieve in the gods seeing as holy magic is the most celebrated form of magic and paladins are pretty much the super heroes of the era
>yeah my character still doesn't believe it
do you want your character to be someone angry at the gods or something and denies them
>NO my character doesn't believe in the gods, anyone could use magic and say it's from god
>HMM that’s not bad we can compromise and make this work
>okay how about your character thinks it's all fake and believes in a religious conspiracy?
>everyone’s happy we continue
>Our paladin inaugurated a temple of Bane.
how big for you was it?
>monk and barbarian are great friends and the monk introduces the barbarian and himself
>monk is a goliath with a 9ft pole and barbarian is a huge woman with a hammer
>monk says don't worry about the woman, she is more than capable of handling herself, she's been approved by me. no one gets into the group without impressing me first
>new guy goes on about how he's seen many woman that could beat the goliath up
>goes on about how the goliath is ignorant pretty much saying everything to make his character feel out of place in the setting other than calling the monk sexist
>monk is chill and just acts interested and says he'd like to meet the people he mentioned one day
>monk plays a kind of joking peacekeeper who tries to keep everyone in line and makes sure the party is running smoothly despite being the main cause of conflict at any point.
>it's a running joke and we all enjoy it except maybe the paladin which is kinda that guy but we don't mind him
>introductions are over and we get to the hamlet
>rogue starts talking about payment
>town is too poor to pay
>rogue starts threatening the mayor to pay up
>paladin intercepts and says that we can speak of payment when the job is done
>right after the mayor explains the situation and how the land sharks sense movement the rogue suggests that they use livestock to draw them out
>the mayor explains that they don't have any livestock left and that they would have to think of another way
>the rogue suggests that they use a baby as bait
>everyone jumps in and tells the mayor that he's joking, new guy starts laughing and says that it's an effective way to draw them out and that if the mayor wants to get rid of i he'll do as he says
>mayor walks away as he has nothing else to say as I’m too tired to muster up the energy to respond to such a stupid request appropriately
Building a Knight because I like big guys in plate. The way I see it my options are V.Human with Shield Master or Quarterstaff + Shield PAM.
Thoughts?
Is it a big following?
Again, yes, holy magic doesn't require gods, at least on 5e's standard.
