I have updated my character sheet to reflect the latest playtest packet. Thankfully it wasn't too difficult. As for combat, I prefer gridded maps.

Fighters weren't changed much by the update, so it didn't take long for me to fix up Nicolaus's stats. The only real difference is this 'skill die' thing, which actually seems like a good idea the more I think about it.
Oh, and with regards to the IC thread: Blakey, unless you were doing some on-the-fly role-playing (which is fine by me), Javier was Aiydan's childhood friend, not Reynard.

Nicolaus, born Aiydan Aidara, is a human fighter who was a knight who abandoned and came to resent the nobility after his father was killed after a jousting match; now is arrogant and judgemental, but still works with a brigade of knights out of necessity. Childhood friend of Javier before he went missing.
Hang on. I'm getting confused here. If you look through Nicolaus' back story he claims to be childhood friend of Reynard (i.e. me). Yet here he's childhood friend of Javier.
Oh, and with regards to the IC thread: Blakey, unless you were doing some on-the-fly role-playing (which is fine by me), Javier was Aiydan's childhood friend, not Reynard.
Not according to your background... Unless I missed a later post where it was changed?
He knows the other PCs well enough (with the exception of Warinor, since he started off in the "lower classes"), and was a childhood friend of Reynald (if that's okay with Blakey). He pretends to not know any of them, however, and only came to the king's birthday celebration along with the rest of the knights he was living with after fleeing his home duchy. They most likely don't know the truth about him (or even recognize him) -- in fact, he believes only he and his trusty warhorse Marbuksus know the truth about who he is, and what became of House Aidara and Tondan that fateful day.
Emphasis mine of course. See?

I will happily delete my post about Nicolaus if it turns out I'm wrong - which I usually am.

Hehe.. it's gets more complicated... it was ' and was a childhood friend of Jarvier (if that's okay with Blakey).'
Which was when I pointed out that Reynald was your character. It must have then got changed to Reynald and Blakey in one and left as Javier in another. Think best thing now if okay with all.. is that Aiydan had a couple of different childhood friends at times. Maybe Javier when he was quite young and later after Javier's family fell out of favour, Reynald till around the time his father was killed.
That work?

I'm happy with this option, and also happy with Reynard not being a friend of Aiydan at all - my post is easily deletable or editable to fit. I guess we should leave it up to Catuse and the DM to decide what was his character's back story....
I am not going to post IC again until this is cleared up so as not to further muddy the waters.

Yeah, I edited one description but not another by accident; things like that seem to happen too much to me  But it's fine with me if they all knew each other pretty well - a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy thing, at least. So yeah, fine with me, just wanted to make sure everything was cleared before going IC.

Fun times. :D My preference would be to keep things the way they already are in the IC thread.

New version of Reynard on the first page, updated to the new play test packet. I have had to change him a bit as his old Speciality has gone. Seeing as he is a sword and board warrior I have picked up Defender speciality instead. Had to slightly change his spells too due to the reworking of clerics. I now have Lance of Faith at-will which is funny as it's much more effective than his Longsword! But I think I'll be using my Longsword and Shield a lot - for style reasons alone. Also as a trait for his Noble background I am supposed to have three retainers. I think three are far too many to control/remember/deal with so I'm planning on making him have a squire and two man servants. The squire will be a fairly significant part of this story but the man servants will just be background fluff. All with the DM's approval of course. Squire: Carson
A human male, eighteen years of age. He is the youngest son of one of the vassals to Bos Loringen, Earl of Forsythe. He's been with Reynard for three years now and they get along very well. They go drinking together and he shares many of Reynard's secrets. He knows about Reynard's training as an acolyte of the Warbringer and supports his desire for the kingdom to be plunged into war. He gets that they have to be subtle about this though. As far as Reynard knows he is 100% loyal to him. Reynard has told him much but not all of his secrets. He has kept him in the dark about any family secrets they might have for he is aware of his connections to the Earl of Forsythe - even though Reynard thinks his loyalty is much stronger to him than that far off relation. Reynard would call him a fast friend as well as his squire. Carson was injured in a riding accident at a young age and as such is not fit for battle. He is fine to carry and fetch and mend - and his armour polishing and sword sharpening skills are second to none. But he will never wield a sword in battle. Reynard is accutely aware that being his squire might place Carson in danger and he will do all he can to make sure that doesn't happpen and that Carson is protected if it does. Added this to my background on page #1.

Struggling to get an account with Invisible Castle - I've tried to register twice but no email comes through to me. Are there any other online rollers anyone could suggest?

I'm not an expert on Invisible Castle (haven't used it much myself), but maybe one of the others can help you. In the mean time you could try using this site.
I'm heading off to visit my girlfriend's family until Christmas evening. I *should* be able to keep posting, but if I do end up disappearing I should be back Christmas night. I'll try to write a post for the IC thread tonight after I get there, but no guarantees on that one.
