I Am A: True Neutral Human Druid/Ranger (4th/3rd Level)

Ability Scores:
Strength-13
Dexterity-12
Constitution-14
Intelligence-16
Wisdom-16
Charisma-17

Alignment:
True
Neutral A true neutral character does what seems to be a good
idea. He doesn’t feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to
good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a
lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such
a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would
rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he’s not
personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal
way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves
philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as
prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of
neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True
neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act
naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can
be a dangerous alignment because it represents apathy, indifference,
and a lack of conviction.

Race:
Humans
are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a
penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse
as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual
hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Primary
Class:
Druids gain power not by
ruling nature but by being at one with it. They hate the unnatural,
including aberrations or undead, and destroy them where possible.
Druids receive divine spells from nature, not the gods, and can gain an
array of powers as they gain experience, including the ability to take
the shapes of animals. The weapons and armor of a druid are restricted
by their traditional oaths, not simply training. A druid’s Wisdom score
should be high, as this determines the maximum spell level that they
can cast.

Secondary
Class:
Rangers are skilled
stalkers and hunters who make their home in the woods. Their martial
skill is nearly the equal of the fighter, but they lack the latter’s
dedication to the craft of fighting. Instead, the ranger focuses his
skills and training on a specific enemy a type of creature he bears a
vengeful grudge against and hunts above all others. Rangers often
accept the role of protector, aiding those who live in or travel
through the woods. His skills allow him to move quietly and stick to
the shadows, especially in natural settings, and he also has special
knowledge of certain types of creatures. Finally, an experienced ranger
has such a tie to nature that he can actually draw on natural power to
cast divine spells, much as a druid does, and like a druid he is often
accompanied by animal companions. A ranger’s Wisdom score should be
high, as this determines the maximum spell level that he can cast.

 How does the saying go?  “Another year older and deeper in debt.”  Well, the first part is true although I’ve been able to keep the second part at bay, thanks to the bonus I got for not quitting when my company was acquired last year.  That’s all gone now, however, and I’ve got a paid-off car, paid-off school loan and remodeled house to show for it.  Not bad at all.  The house is almost completely finished – still need to paint the kitchen and TV room, and there’s some small, detail stuff that still needs to be fixed (baseboards, door trim) – and I’ve been scrambling to get everything moved back in and unpacked before New Year’s Eve.  Bless my friends who have volunteered to help me finish up!  Once it’s all done, I’ll post some pictures.

Of course, there’s more stuff I’d like to do next year, including some exterior work, but I think that’s part of being a home owner.  You’re never completely done working on your house.  But I’m happy enough with it that I only half-joked with a friend that even if I won the bit Lotto tomorrow, I’d keep the place as my Dallas house (although I’d have a field day doing the other stuff I’ve thought of to it).  Well, gotta get back to work for now, but it’s been so long since I posted, I thought I better do this when the inspiration hit (*anything* is better than finishing this boring document I’m reviewing).  Bye!

She brought me a whole bag of DVDs, which I’ve been watching all evening (between naps).  I’m feeling better, although I’m still stuffed up and I have no voice.  So, don’t bother to call (except to tell me who won Crown) if you need more than a croak as an answer.  Just took a shower and am ready to go back to bed.  I figure I’ll sleep most of the day tomorrow and probably be feeling pretty OK by Monday.  Good thing I decided to take vacation next week!  Hope everyone who could go is having a blast at Bordermarch.  I hated to miss the debut of the Company of St. Mark, so I expect to hear all about it tomorrow and next week.  Good luck to all the guys in Crown tomorrow (although it’s midnight, so I guess it’s actually today)!

This has been an icky week mostly.  Started feelng achy on Monday, stayed home Tuesday and Wednesday with cold-like symptoms.  Went to work Thursday and made it through most of the day before pooping out.  Stayed up late Thursday trying to finish an heraldic sideless surcoat for the Bordermarch event.  Worked from home Friday and mostly finished the dress before admitting that I was still sick and that going to a camping event would be a pretty stupid thing to do.  So, I admitted defeat and stayed home with my sore throat, stuffy nose and cough.

I watched the two videos I have that have not been packed away in a box hidden among the pile of boxes in my garage last night, and I’ll watch Hot Fuzz, borrowed from MCC, again today.  Then, I’ll just “suffer” with my books since my TV hasn’t been hooked up to cable again after rearranging the house.  That’s happening on Monday.  I’m feeling peevish.  It’s going to be a long weekend.  Sigh.
