A combined effort

The enemy of my enemy is my friend...


1 to 50 of 65 << first < prev | 1 | 2 | next > last >>

Alas, Real Life has reared its ugly head and has forced a member in my group to step out.

This presents an opportunity for another person who wishes to join in.

INFO:

This adventure already on going, but is the combination of 2 seperate groups that happen to be in the same city at the same time. Through Fate, i was the DM of one of the groups, and a PC in another. When the DM stepped away from the second one, I took over, and decided to merge the groups to achieve an epic result.

I say epic alot for a number of reasons. The current party size is 9, divided between 2 groups, 4 and 5. The upcoming "boss" scene is designed to accomdate 10 people, and i would like to fill the void.

The person who left was a 8th level Aes Sedai. The opportunity is presenting itself for another Aes Sedai to be introduced to fill in the void, but that is dependent on the course of action the group takes.

if my group is reading this, then do not change anything to your current plans. I will decide when to introduce the new person, should 1 emerge

Character will start off as a prisoner, a damane to the Seanchan. Two possibilities exist for character introduction:
1) a captured Aes Sedai
2) a wilder captured by the Seanchan.

Feel free to ask questions...

thanks


Are male aes sedai , ala asha'man, (cleansed Saidin, of course) a no-no in your game?

Grand Lodge

I have the WoT rules, read them ages ago, but never actually played it. Is the upcoming 10 person boss the culmination of the campaign or the end of an adventure arc?

The Exchange

damane huh? Interesting. Do any of your groups have a Aiel wise one? Or a dream walker? Ooooooh or any party members that are Tuatha'an? I can only think how good the role play oppertunitys would be for a Tuatha'an wilder that was forced to become a damane. How could she reconcile being turned into a weapon. Would her belief in the Way of the Leaf remain in tacked or would it shattered... Man I like this concept alot.


@ toccata: the storyline is currently taking place in book 7, one week after the battle of Dumai Wells, where the Asha'man have revealed to the world just how destructive the power can be in battle. So Saidan hasnt been cleansed yet. If you went this route, i can tweak the intro.

@sieylianna: In actuality, the BIG boss battle is the START of the adventure, so this spot will not be a one time thing. I fully expect to have this campaign culminate at Tarmon Gai'don.

@Celeador...The group has a Wise one apprentice, but the latent dreamer stepped away from the group, so a dreamer is a possibility. A tuatha'an damane... well that would be an interesting concept for roleplay. Build her and let's see what we get.

The Exchange

Rizzen: It looks like Jonasty1031 is in your campaign, so i'm sure its good. However I just got accepted into another pbp group. Until I make sure that I can maintain the proper amount of posts for all of my current groups, I need to hold off on applying for another no matter how much I would love to play in a WoT campaign. My apologies and good luck!


thanks for the look over, celeador.

Still looking, btw


Bumping for interest


Ok, you have caught my interest.

I own the core book and the campaign arc book they published as well. I have played a few sessions and GMed the first part of the published adventure back in the day. It's honestly my favorite magic system of any d20 game I have played. So yeah, I would be up for creating an Aes Sedai. I would like a more info on world timeline, character creation specs, and posting expectations. Feel free to PM me if you don't want to post it all here.


I'm interested... Are stats determined by dice rolls, or by 20-pt. buy? Do human characters still get a bonus feat at 1st level? Is equipment an issue, seeing as damane are treated as something between slaves and animals?


Its ok. i will post the info below

timeline: it is currently 4 days past the battle of Dumai wells, so the start of book 7.

Character creation:
PC build: Roll 4d6, drop lowest. you can roll 2 sets right away.
8th level

Max HP.

Can a character already have access to Invert? Is the Defense modifier still used in this game?


Rolling stats for character creation:

4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 2, 2) = 15
4d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 3, 4) = 16
4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 6, 3) = 12
4d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 6, 3) = 19
4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 5, 1) = 17
4d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 5, 4) = 14

So that would be 13, 13, 11, 16, 16 and 13.


defense is still used.
Invert has to be learned. but you can reserve up to 6 skill points to apply to the stat once you learn how to invert.

@ryvin: correct. a solid roll, btw. but you can roll a second time.


Rolling stats for character creation a second time, to see whether it might be more awesome: (;)

4d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 4, 4) = 16
4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 6, 1) = 17
4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 6, 3) = 12
4d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 4, 2) = 13
4d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 2, 4) = 14
4d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 3, 4) = 15

Nnnnope, I think I'll stick with the first one.


4d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 3, 3) = 15 -> 12
4d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 6, 3) = 17 -> 14
4d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 4, 1) = 14 -> 13
4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 5, 6) = 21 -> 17
4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 5, 1) = 11 -> 9
4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4, 6) = 17 -> 16

Nice.

But it looks like Aebliss is really gung ho about this, and I don’t have a character fleshed out as of yet. I will think a bit on this over the next couple of days, but you can give the spot to him if you wish.


@ThorGN: go for it. Ryin/aebliss is going for the wilder damane approach, perhaps you can make a better Aes Sedai?

@ryvin: backstory. where from? I assume that you are gunning for the damane approach. also, explain why your wilder would have taken the EWP (warder sword), since if you are from ebou dar, they duel with daggers, not swords.


I've tweaked it a bit since the warder sword, actually. ^^ Please take a look at the new crunch. Backstory will be up in a bit. Basically, she's a White Tower dropout; kicked out for 'lack of discipline' once she was considered safe not to kill herself with the One Power.


Side note. To determine extra weaves learned at each level, take total level plus highest linked attribute.
Example would be ryvin. Level 8 + wis mod 4= 12 new weaves she can learn.


Background story: completed!

I have 6 starting weaves, +1 for every level, equals 13. So I can add 12 more? :D Excellence! I'll get on it.


Is that over and above what your class already gives you? A Wilder starts with 6 and gets 1 per level, so Ryvin would have 13 to start, before any she has learned from Weavesight. An Initiate starts with 8 and is assumed to have someone teaching her the rest.

Are there any restrictions as far as Ajah affiliation or background?


No restriction to Ajah or background.

as for the weaves, correct.

and you can use the netbook under the dragons banner for more weaves as well.


Okay, I think I'm done. ^^ Please let me know what you think!


Thor, if you can create an aes sedai in the next day, ill add you in to the mix.

Ryvin, i like what i see. Definitely looks well thought out.

Feel free to look through the adventure so far...


Well, I will pass for now. Have fun guys!


ok. thanks for the interest though.


Sure! I'm glad someone is still playing Wheel of Time. Let me know down the line if you need someone else.


Once again, Life happens, and another player in my campaign has stepped away.

The one who stepped away was playing an Asha'man.

But this time, i am not making it mandatory for a new pc to be a male channeler. Instead it can be anything. Blademaster, potential warder, wolf brother, another Aiel, anything.

I do ask that if you wish to be a female channeler, let me know.

Character creation:
PC build: Roll 4d6, drop lowest. you can roll 2 sets right away.
8th level

Max HP.
initiate and wilder hps boosted to d6.

Is this thread still active? :P


yes, yes it is.


Not sure where your WoT adventure is at, but if it's worth making an Asha'man, I'd certainly be interested. I've never had a chance to play WoT :)


the spot is still open, and we are looking


First set of rolls for a new Asha'man:

4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 3, 5) = 15=13
4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 3, 4) = 13=11
4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 2, 4) = 13=11
4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 5, 4) = 13=12
4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 1) = 7=6
4d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 5, 2) = 14=12


Hmmm... let's hope the second roll's a little better:

4d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 4, 1) = 11=10
4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 4, 6) = 17=14
4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3, 5) = 13=11
4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 1, 1) = 9=8
4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 2, 6) = 15=13
4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 2, 4) = 11=9

Well, they're both decidedly bad, with a total of +1 for ability scores each. I'm happy to take one of the arrays (the second I suppose?) if them's the rules, but I must say, I don't expect to be too much good for anything. I'll get to work with what I've got though :)


4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 5) = 11

Try it again today? Maybe you'll be more lucky.

4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 2, 2) = 14 12

hmmmm...


Ok, so going with the old "highest ability is 14" rolls above. Couple of quick questions though...

1) I take it we don't get 4 ranks in a skill at level 1 for background? Do we get 1 bonus rank?
2) Can we ignore skill rank prerequisites for Prestige Classes like Asha'man, as they are based off the old 3.5 max rank system?
3) Ability scores go up as per Pathfinder Advancement Table? (This is fairly crucial for my scores, as I'm going to find myself unable to cast my highest level weaves!)

Also, once I've created the new alias, I'll get you to check my number of weaves known if that's cool Rizzenmagnus

Cheers!

PS Just for interest's sake...

4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 2, 4) = 16
4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 3, 6) = 15
4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 6, 2) = 15
4d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 6, 1) = 15
4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 2, 1) = 10
4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 4, 1) = 16

Grrrrr....


1)yes you do get the +4.
2)no. while it is based off of 3.5, pathfinder has the built in +3 for class skills bonus, so even if you are at 4th level, you get +4 skill ranks, and +3 bonus.
3) ability scores go up as patherfinder. so +1 at 4th, +1 at 8th.


Cheers :)

Character should be up in 6-8 hours. Just having to work through the magic system again - I'd forgotten how cool it is.


Would a female Armsmen be okay? Looking to do a whole Blademaster with her?


Working on her when I get home


Female blademaster would be fine. I can see the positive having an extra fighter in the litte and lady, think u both could be ready by tuesday?


Yeah when I get home I will post her trying to put her on here last night at midnight was making me sleepy so tonight you will have my Shienaran Blademaster Allandra "the Swan" top knot and all

Lady z, nice rolls, aside from the 8. But thats ok.


I get +2 from being human, and +2 form leveling this should be awesome


And than just plugging in the numbers and bam done


ok. cannot wait to see the final product


Would love to take the best of both
