The Griffin's Crier

So last session (I played) I was really rather bored with the pally. We have two other fighters in the party plus the NPC pally chick. Plus a cleric who buff's and comes in as a second line. A fourth fighter was just a bit too excessive IMHO. Now I was cool with the role I found (guarding the mage/bard/rogue), but I'm playing a knight in the dwarves campaign.

So since he was only around for the one session I was wondering if I could drop him in favor of a ranger. I could still fill in my role as rear-guard, but it would give me a bit more to do.

I'm totally fine with that, Cory - I want you to have fun. Simply figure out a back story for the pally's exodus and the arrival of the new guy.

The party will arrive in the town very soon, so that will be a good place to swap out chars.

Pally came to check on whats-her-name. Helped out with a bit of adventure, and is returning to the Lightbringers to report. Simple and too the point.

BTW what am I looking at? 5.5 level? 6 level? Standard Blackrazor wealth chart?

Let's say 1/2 through 6th, standard gear/wealth from chart.
