Hello All

I am really excited to be picked to join the new Horde.
If there are any tweaks needed for Arkhan, please let me know.
I still need to catch up on the game thread (only read about 350 posts so far), but I really like the game;
including the characters and Dragon's story-telling!

I am in Michigan time zone (Eastern Standard).

Yeah that's true it's a sad state of the world we live in. I mean hell Remember what happened to me just a little bit ago it doesn't matter where you are some people will always cause problems. Its times when it feels the darkness and evil is surrounding you that you need to know there is reasons to move on and move forward no matter how dark the night the morning will always be bright

I am in Metro Detroit area.

Michigan is awesome....if you are a penguin! Lol.

I read about your incident...glad you are ok.

I will be rearranging his background a bit.
I thought that since Arkhan is a Storm Druid, he may have been trained with The Storm-Whispers,
and assigned to the new tribe as their official Shaman to Rull?

Or, he could have originally have belonged to Thoku's tribe and came over once The Bleeding Storm (awesome name) was formed to become your shaman.

Suggestions?

Well met, Arkhan!

In preparation for holiday traveling:
I'll be unavailable a good chunk of time on each day between December 23rd and the 28th. I'll try to post as often as possible, but feel free to bot me if the games are moving quickly despite the holiday.


I am originally from Detroit area as well. Then I moved to the Index Finger. Now I live in a grass hut on in Hawaii.

Ya I was a hard time for me loss a good friend in the Paris attack, was a bastilday when the guy attacked...was in the airport when the set off the bomb in Belgium...got shot....but as dark as all that was my son was born this year so it's a bright day today...even if it's 30'f most of the time( probably shouldn't have moved from Hawaii ) right now he warms my heart.

As for your character I want him to enter the fist organically not just poof here's your shaman. Since we are now formed and have lots of scars. Hmmm.. I'll have to think on this.

-Posted with Wayfinder


I was thinking he'd come in by way of prophecy (and maybe with a bit of plot that I may have skipped). He could also have been sent by the Haruspex--this totally scary and way respected group of oracles and soothesayers that live in a volcano. They're sort of like Orc Oracles of Delphi, only they like to dangle the agents of petitioners over volcanic vents so that they THEY can recieive the visions directly for their masters (and the oracles don't get hurt). Even Grask respects their power, so a word from the gen would be like absolute law. They also have the only full true and accurate recorded history of the orcs.

I started adjusting his backstory a bit to fit such a vision.

I am more than amicable in his introduction into the Bleeding Storm.

I like the being sent by the Haruspex. It could be a sign of respect and approval for the new tribe that they sent their agent?

And, Arkhan is a young and fairly new ordained shaman, so he will be proving his worth to the Chief!
He shall call upon the might of all things Rull for the glory of the Bleeding Storm!

WOW! I just read the Skreed battle. That was awesome! You guys gained a horde!

Arkhan could have been 1 of the 10 shaman that you just got?

That's true. Well that's why I tried telling the people when dragon was looking for a new player. To read a bit on our game before they made their characters, since we have a ready made supply of new orcs (players) if your part of the tribe.

The only thing that will be needed is that you be be on the bottom rung of the main fist as new players/replacement characters will have to establish a place in the fist. So yeah you could be one of the many shamans we have in the hoard. Like you finally want to try and gain glory as part of the main fist.

I just hope you have more of a story/personality to your character instead of just poof i.here and now you accept me...

Just want you to understand when my character challenges your metal/resolve, it's just good in game fun adds to the role play. Like our witch secretly wanted to take my place as chief but knew th time was not right. She would challenge me at times with a smart remark here and angry glance there and my character would respond. It's let me get in to the orc mind scape better and was loads of fun.

I'm not telling you to be the same thorn in thokus side just letting you know role playing as a orc is so much fun!!!!!

Trust me, I have read almost all of the game thread.
I am at the part just after you guys defeated the Human band after you left Trunau.
I am really enjoying the rping between your tribe.

I have played a goblin on these boards before, and was that ever fun and entertaining.
I am greatly looking forward to this game.

I am trying to catch up to your present posts...

Btw, Arkhan feels that he is The Storm, so....hehe!


That's great point. You guys have consistently been great role players and really stepped into the orc mindset. You reallybshwo how a group of relatively chaotic peeps would work together. Sure the biggest baddest of you is the leader, but everyone's taking pot shots and waiting for their chance at the head. It's great.it all works because Thoku's successful.

Kudos all of you! I'm convinced that a CE group could actually work out

Hi, Arkhan.

I'm just looking over your character sheet. It looks like you are mainly meant to be a spellcaster and not a melee guy. Druids can be built either way.

I have a few suggestions:
1. Any particular reason why your only melee weapon is a dagger? If you want to use a shield then you can use a morning star which does about twice the damage. If you get rid of the shield you can use a greataxe or falchion.

2. I'm not sure if you are keen to preserve your move speed by wearing light armor. But Leather Lamellar armor is better than a hide shirt by 1 point and is still light armor. Alternately, you can wear a breastplate if it is made of dragonhide. A dragonhide breastplate costs 700 gp.

3. Your spell choices at first level look fairly straightforward. At second level though you have prepared frostfall twice. It's really not a great spell - the AoE is tiny and so is the damage. I know if fits with your storm thing, but so does aggressive thundercloud, which can do 3d6 damage per round for 4 rounds. Also, barkskin is one of the better defensive buffs, especially since we are using Automatic Bonus Progression. Flame blade is a good attack spell if you want to get into melee since it is a touch attack, and it lasts a long time. If you would prefer electricity, divine trident is basically the same spell only lightning.

Hope that is useful.

Edit: Almost forgot.

4. You probably will develop a favourite wild shape. It's a good idea to have a separate avatar for the shape, with a link to it on your main page.

Hello Ozak

Arkhan is a caster druid. I have played a melee druid (PFS) in Core, and I wanted to try the dark side...

The dagger is actually one of the human ones they use to kill themselves when taken (can't remember the name atm). Arkhan carries it as a joke. I am hoping not to be in actual melee...lol.

I felt that the axe beak hide shirt is better roleplay for him.

I noticed Aggressive Thundercloud while reading the game thread. I like it, but it will wait. I want the debuff affect of Frostfall. That will be Arkhan's main combat path: debuffing, along with some damage.

I appreciate the suggestions.

Arkhan will be welcomed, once his talents of Rull are witnessed!

All cringe and tremble at the thunderous roar of His lightning!

Edit: Good idea about the wildshape!

I believe they are called hopeknives.

Nevertheless, you might want to have something better just in case. There are always clubs - they are free.

Arkhan Silvinesti wrote:

No reason a suit of leather lamellar can't be made from Axe Beak hide as much as a hide shirt can. The main point of a hide shirt is you can take it off real fast by ripping it.

While we are on the subject, a klar is a shield traditionally made from the skull of a large lizard. If the GM is cool with it you might have one made from an axe beak skull instead.

Arkhan Silvinesti wrote:

You know, the debuff effect of frost fall is so small I hadn't even considered it. Staggering someone isn't terrible but you can still attack, cast a spell, or make a charge when staggered. It just slows you down if you have multiple attacks. And this debuff only lasts 1 round.

There are other debuffs available to you that are considerably more powerful:
cloud of seasickness
euphoric cloud
ice slick
pox pustules
sickening entanglement
whip of spiders
wilderness soldiers

I like ice slick here because it drops enemies prone. Being prone is like staggered since you need to spend a move action to stand up, and prone also gives an adjacent enemy a big bonus to hit and an attack of opportunity when the enemy stands up. So it seems to do what frost fall does only does it better.


Male 1/2 Orc Druid (Storm) 2 Initiative+4 AC 17 Hp 19/07 Fort +7 Ref +4, Will +9 Perception +9 DV 60'

Nice call on Ice Slick! Replaced!

Edit: I so thought that Choot was about to say These aren't the Fey we're looking for....lol.


The hammer don uskroth could take the form of a klar


Male 1/2 Orc Druid (Storm) 2 Initiative+4 AC 17 Hp 19/07 Fort +7 Ref +4, Will +9 Perception +9 DV 60'

I gave Arkhan a falchion. It is the favored weapon of Rull afterall.

I doubt that our Chieftain would allow such a wondrous weapon to be used by one not of worth...yet.

Christmas Schedule:
FYI guys, I should be able to post regularly up to the night of the 22nd.

Friday the 23rd I am unlikely to be able to make any posts, and possibly the 24th as well.

The 25th I will check in briefly but won't be surprised if there is nothing going on. After that I should be able to post normally.
