Jørmund

"This sudden cold snap caught us completely off-guard." Gringam continued. "Zephyr has never known cold this severe before."

Jørmund looked around as the gnome said this noting the truth to that matter. At least they knew that this was serious.

"And we think it's only going to get worse. Since it's the middle of summer, preparing for cold weather hasn't exactly been at the forefront of our thinking. We need much more wood than we currently have. And enough furs to at least bundle up the little ones in if possible."

"The cold will quickly become irrelevant once the Northmen arrive." Matches asserted then. "It won't matter how warm or how cold the people are if they aren't well trained enough to stand against the raiders."

"And it won't matter how well trained they are when the cold saps their strength and they have no food to sustain them." He shot back to the Sheriff. While training was important so was surviving the cold. "If it is truly going to get worse people will die from the cold before the raiders get here."

The earth genasi listened carefully as they finished explaining the situation shaking his head at the poor level of fire wood and state of the defenses. "You should have had some gather fuel for the fires, others should have been gathering hides and furs for warmth, others still could be fortifying the defenses, all this while training before their work starts and after if need be." he retorted to the pair rather bluntly. Jørmund did not understand why they relied solely on this Duchess Kamnimail for protection.

"If they are to land in the harbor we will need to force them to land where we want them to. Make them to land in areas where ranged weapons will be to our benefit. It doesn't take much training to drop rocks on people below you. If you can drop heavy enough rocks from above their ships, you can possibly sink some before they land depending on the ship. For other ships if you can set traps in the water to scrape and damage the bottom of the hull it will do the same." Jørmund grimaced as he realized how much that needed to be done and how little time there was to do it.

"If you are wanting my advice, we should start by splitting the people into groups, those who can fight, those who cannot. From there split them into different roles, gathering fire wood, food hides and furs, and preparing the defenses. Those who can fight will spend at least half their day training. We will also need someone to keep eyes on the horizon so we know when the raiders arrive. Once we can get these things started I think we will have a better chance."

Jørmund was already starting to wonder how well this was going to go. If this was the Cult of Ice things were likely going to get worse by means of the weather. He wanted to know more about the fleet, he just wasn't sure he could convince either of these two to send ships out to scout or act as an early warning. He also wasn't sure that he would live up to their expectations. Bards had a tendency to spin up extra details, and his home village didn't do much to help with that either. The very least he would do is fight until help arrived, the raiders fled, or the people could safely flee.

Now I believe we just need Vertigo to get their character done, though I believe they are on a vacation for a bit.

While we wait I'll still keeping this open for other players. Once Vertigo does get their CS in we can start the game.

Advantage on Perception gives a +5 to Passive Perception.

@rush99999

That's what I thought but I could not remember if that was the case or not.

A Most Dangerous Game (2014 5e D&D)

Name: Berghest Feral-Hide
Age: 54
Race: Goblin
Class: Blood Hunter (Order of the Lycan) / Barbarian
Background: Outlander

Appearance:

Berghest is a terrifying fusion of goblin cunning and feral savagery. His skin is a pale, mottled green-gray, stretched over a wiry but muscular frame that radiates predatory strength. His crimson eyes burn with an unnatural intensity, and his jagged maw of fangs leaves little doubt of the beast lurking within him. Tufts of coarse, wolfish fur sprout from his shoulders and back, further blurring the line between goblin and monster. He adorns himself with crude chains and bone trinkets, not as restraints but as trophies — reminders of both his torment and triumph.

Clad only in a tattered red loincloth and savage ornaments, Berghest carries himself with the dominance of a predator that fears nothing. His posture is always forward-leaning, ready to spring, and his clawed hands twitch with restless hunger. To see him is to witness something that should not exist: a goblin elevated, twisted, and perfected by forbidden bloodcraft into a chieftain-beast who is both feared and revered.

Backstory:

Berghest was once nothing more than a hunter of his goblin tribe, eking out survival through cunning and ambush. That life ended when he was captured by a fledgling sect of Blood Hunters, pioneers of the Order of the Lycan. Still struggling to tame the curse of lycanthropy for themselves, they turned instead to subjects they deemed expendable: the unwanted, the weak, and the reviled. Berghest was one such unfortunate soul, chosen to endure their wicked experiments.

But the Blood Hunters found unexpected success. Berghest not only survived the ordeal but became the first to master the curse without losing himself to madness. He retained his goblin instincts and intellect while embodying the monstrous ferocity of the beast within. Even more, he wielded Hemocraft — the forbidden magic of blood — seamlessly while in his hybrid form. He was, by every measure, the first true success of the Order of the Lycan.

When the experiments were complete, Berghest was released, the Blood Hunters believing their work had proven its point. But Berghest returned to his tribe a changed creature, more than goblin, more than beast. Within weeks, he challenged his chieftain in brutal combat, tearing him apart beneath the blood moon. With dominance established, Berghest crowned himself the new leader of the Beast-Hides. Under his rule, the tribe was transformed, as his curse seeped into his kin. Soon, the world would whisper of a terrifying new breed — natural-born were-goblins, children of the first beast-chieftain, Berghest Feral-Hide.

@N3v3rM0r3

I think you are missing a point in your point buy. I count 26 total.

@rush99999

Looks good, you can move it over to the CS tab.

Slight correction, it seems you have 28 points used based off what dice cloud shows for the base stats. I'm going to run the numbers again and make sure I didn't mess up.

@Lurking Krog

As editing does not ping the person being tagged.

I redid the numbers and it still add up to 28 rush.
