Post here when your characters are ready, with your chosen alias.

Copy-paste the link into the profile for me (actually make it a clickable url, please) and put your HP/AC/Saves/Initiative in the Classes and Levels bar.

We'll get started as soon as everyone is present and accounted for.

Male Half-Elf Level 1 Magus (Myrmidarch)

I'm here ye dumb babes.


You want Jules Jericho to be an alias, I believe.


how do sir


Male Half-Elf Level 1 Magus (Myrmidarch) | HP 5/15 | AC 16 T 13 FF 13 | CMD 14 | Fort +2 Ref +3 Will +1 | Init +5

Sorry for doubleposte, but I've figured it out!


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Warning to Comeau, you have not posted in 4 days, and have been at best a sporadic poster. A mite rude considering we swapped to this game to accommodate you joining in the first place.

If you've not posted by Friday, something irreparably spooky will happen to Jules.


I GAVE UP BEING A VAMPIRE SORCERER NINJA KING FOR YOU MAN


Oh god, I'm really sorry about the time shit.

I've been busy with school and a whole bunch of shit that I've made commitments to, and I want to say I'm sorry.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Multiclassing spellcasters is generally ineffective.

Your better bet is probably a straight classed Inquisitor. Stop trying to do something complicated for your first character, you'll only end up frustrated with the result.


Male Dwarf Monk (Zen Archer) 4 | HP 38/38 | AC 20, Touch 20, FF 17 | CMD 25 | Fort +6, Ref +6, Will +9 (+3 against Spells/Poison/SLA's) | Init +4 | Perception +9 | Sense Motive +9

Also, if your build only becomes effective 10 levels in, and you're in a campaign where we've ALREADY HAD ONE GUY DIE AND ANOTHER ONE WELL ON THE WAY AT LEVEL ONE, you may want to rethink your strategy.


I have decided to kill off Jules, and reroll for a character that'd be more comfortable to my style AND be helpful against the undead.

I'd like you all to meet my current build of a completely inane and undead-fathoming Inquisitor:

Saint Joseph Bartholomew Caiaphas the Second, "Paragon" (in his head) of Religious Devoutness to the goddess Iomedae.

Please advise me on what I should try and improve with him; I'd much prefer to help you all than to be useless.

Currently, I'm going towards a mix of a small buffer with a large portion of divine/holy melee. As such, I have Detect Undead (I don't know if we could get rid of Shakens that way, but we could avoid haunts), Bless (50 ft. burst for +1 buffs on Attack Rolls and against Fear), and Stabilize (so that we DON'T have to deal with a Cassiel moment again). Again, if any of this sounds terrible, please let me know.

Finally, I'll be trying to talk to Cube (please don't hate me) about coordinating the two of our characters; I don't want to screw up anything he does, or be a Mini-Me of his character (funnily enough, Iomedae hates Pharasma; go figure).

tl;dr scrapping Jules due to lack of shit, replacing with a class I can understand


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

I'll tell you this, if you had problems understanding Magus, you'll have problems understanding Inquisitor. They're fun, but if you problem with building the Magus was complexity you may want to build something simpler.


The problem I had with Magus was the requirement of more knowledge about the game's Spell mechanics and Combat mechanics than I had at the time. The whole reason I didn't realize the stuff about adding Spells was because I didn't have enough time to read through the entire class list since the game was almost starting.

Inquisitor is rather simple for me; pick a Domain (or maybe an Inquisition, please clarify on that) out of what your deity represents, and use that to stomp face. Pretty easy.

The magic is much simpler, and the whole concept is something I'm more able to work with both character-wise and gameplay-wise. But in the end, your word is much more valuable.

See, you're doing the same thing again, going into a class with very little knowledge of how it works, ASSUMING it's as simple as you think it is, and then going from there.

I'm going to suggest you play a non spellcaster. Something like a Ranger (Trapper, which has no spells but can be the trap monkey) or Fighter.

They're the two least complex classes in the game, and require very little "research" into how the game works to function. It's ESPECIALLY hard to f*@! up a Ranger since they rock so hard anyway.

Basically, a class that pretty much hands everything to you, or gives a very short list of what to pick, and then you're stuck with it, rather than the Magus and Inquisitor who, fittingly enough for classes from something called the Advanced Player's Guide, are a bit more complex.


Rynj, do you think a paladin would work for him? It seems pretty straightforward, and he'd still have *some* divine casting ability.

You claim that I assume things without questioning them or asking others, no?

I expressed (even if in a convoluted fashion) confusion and/or doubt in my belief, and asked for clarification. You can argue that "you obviously displayed a primary understanding to domains being the proper choice" all you wish, but I did acknowledge my issue.

I could honestly be arguing semantics, but I REALLY don't like it when an incident of me going into something at the last moment, trying to fit in a spot without dedicating time to it or asking questions about it, and then being rushed along the path gets compared to taking a minor guess at something and asking before going through with it.

As far as I can tell, you really have no interest in helping me or understanding my problems in trying to work out a character. If you don't have the time to, then just say so; and I'll quit the campaign.

*Sigh*

My point being that the fact that you said that in the first place means you STILL haven't even read the class you're trying to play, considering Domains and Inquisitions often do little, if ANYTHING to increase your ability to "Stomp face".

The problem we're having here is that I have no way to reliably communicate with you (unlike the rest of the group) since you only seem to want to use discussion, PMs, etc. and other forms of delayed communication, which means any question you ask will not be seen right away, will not be answered right away, you won't see it right away, and then won't ask your follow-up question right away.

Which would be fine if you were a more experienced player, but as-is character creation is some complicated shit the first few times in this game. I spent a few hours on each person here the first time they made a character, making sure they understood their class abilities (the basics, at least), and I would be perfectly willing to spend those few hours with you...if I could be assured that those few hours would be in one block, or at least several shorter blocks over the same day or two, rather than a few hours of communication spread over more than a week since you only get online for about an hour a day or so, if that, it seems.

I really need you to either find a way to reliably communicate with me, or to really delve into reading the massive volume of stuff you need to read for this game. The latter is...unreasonable of me to assume. You have a lot more important things you need to be doing.

I really don't want to kick you out or anything, truly. I don't like to do stuff like that to my friends, and I do consider you a friend, or at least a close acquaintance. But it seems as though it might be better to at the least fit you in at a later date. Take some time to read up on the game and the classes you want to try, get a better understanding of it. Get your Steam account restored so you can pester me at all hours of the night (like everyone else does =)), and come back at that point? Because from what you've said to me and what's happened so far, as things go this just isn't a feasible option for you right now, and it may lead to frustration on both our sides if it continues.

I will be quite willing to work you into a new campaign at some future date, or even this one later depending on changed circumstances, but I think this has already been handled pretty poorly on both sides (perhaps moreso on my side).

I perfectly agree with your points; furthermore, I'd like to discontinue my part in this campaign. I thank you all for putting up with most of my crap, and I really do hope that I can establish a better form of communication than what we've had (Steam account is almost there, guys!).

Personally, I will spend time looking up stuff whilst waiting for a fix on that Steam Account, and then I shall contact you and try to go from there. I'm mainly going to be looking at the variety of things I can pull off Stealth wise, and also do more research on magic (I had barely any idea of the stuff in the first place).

Once again, thank you all for taking me in, changing your plans for me to fit in, and generally tolerating me up to this point. I bid thee farewell!

P.S. Rynjin, feel free to make Jules die a horrible, horrible death. I really don't care for the poor bastard any more.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Hm. I have a plan for Jules, if I do indeed have your blessing to mess with him a bit.

Also, I'm going to continue running CC. By the time we're done with this (or the game falls apart for whatever reason...) I can have a really darn good Kingmaker analogue up and running. Maybe even a homebrew based around regaining your power as big, bad, maybe even Mythic creatures.


Still working on the new guy, but here's what I have so far.

As Ryn told me, Pharasma is the only deity that really makes sense in this setting, which actually works pretty well with the whole "we hate undead" thing. For domains I'm leaning towards Healing (for obvious reasons) and Knowledge (so that he can sorta replace Cassiel as a researcher, plus a bit of divination on the side).

As a level 2 character, he gets 1000 gp to start with, right? I just wanted to be sure that was ok, since it would make me pretty rich compared to the rest of the party (seeing as we haven't actually found any treasure yet >_<;)

@Dualjay, would you say Zeke counts as a chaotic-good outsider? I ask because Alignment Channel would let you benefit from channeled energy, but only if I pick an alignment that matches his.

If we're going to be sticking with CC a while longer, I wanna make sure I'm doing it right. Lady preserve you all!


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Well, she's not the "only deity that makes sense in this setting" bt she sure is the easiest deity to worship here (her worship is by far one of the most common, and it's easy to introduce a zealous acolyte from a nearby temple).

There is no reason fro you to get Alignment Channel.

Alignment Channel has exactly ONE use: Letting you Channel Positive energy to harm Outsiders instead of undead, or using Negative energy to heal them.

Other than that, it doesn't do anything. Positive energy will already heal them and Negative energy will already harm them.

You do not start with 1k gp, you're just as broke as everyone else. =) Max starting gold.

Consider the Thought subdomain. Detect Thoughts is pretty neat. Depends, really, on how you want to GET your information (from people, or just gather it. Both have their ups and downsides).

Looks good overall though. Suggest grabbing a Blunt weapon if you can afford it (a Cestus is awesome, has your Blunt and Piercing needs in one weapon and can be worn like a glove so you're always armed).

Ezekiel is a native outsider for all intents and purposes.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Which doesn't matter when talking about Channel. He's still a living creature.

Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

HOLD THE F#*@ING PHONE.

Azrin, you've got the Healing Domain. -.-

When Shoukichi was dying, you kept saying "I'm out of healing!".

Okay I just found exactly what the flesh golem manual does.

"Flesh Golem Manual: The book contains animate dead, bull's strength, geas/quest, and limited wish. The reader may treat her caster level as one level higher than normal for the purpose of crafting a flesh golem.

Sells for 4k, by the by.

I don't know why Cube and Yezed aren't posting. I don't have internet at my new place yet so it's hard to GM.

I'll give Yezed until I get my internet up to post, and if not we'll move on without him.

As for Cube, can Dual or Evil please poke him on Steam for me?

I have another person who might be interested if that is the case he is fairly reliable. And has wanted to get n a game with me before.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Eh. If Yezed doesn't show I'd rather stick with 4.
