I'm curious, but unfamiliar with the setting and the new Psionics Unleashed rules. Therefore, I'm going to roll up some stats and wait to give a character concept until I feel more comfortable with my options.
OK. Here is Grit, Mul Druid. My plan is to have him good at melee combat and decent at party support with the new and improved first level spell create water :)
Please make recommendations to make him a better character for both role play and combat.
One thing that needs to be decided is if you want to reskin the trait Beast of the Society, which makes his wild shape ability, staring at level 4, last twice as long. It only works for small and medium sizes, and the regular 1 hour/level should actually be plenty of time for most anything BUT its just too good not to ask about.
Also I believe you mentioned you were not fond of archetypes and I am good with a strait druid. But certain archetypes do seem to fit the setting well. So if one suites the game I would happily convert over to it. Blight Druid, Desert Druid, Saurian Shamen, and Sky Druid all would fit well. Dragon Shamen might be too presumptuous. :)

@Arknight: Your ideas on background are good. Stats looked fine except I think you are missing your trained bonus on some class skills.
@Tenro: I'll throw together a couple of traits later tonight. Thinking about +1/6 psionic or metapsionic feat as a favored class bonus, unless you had something else in mind. The vitalist favored class bonuses for some of the other races like dromites or gnomes look fine, too, if you'd rather one of those.
@Dark Netwerk: I'll keep taking applications until 5 p.m. Sunday CST, and try to have a group picked later that evening.
@Skorn (aka Grit): I'll look at the stats more in depth later tonight. Archetypes are perfectly fine if they fit, especially the environmental variants you listed. I'll take a closer look at Beast of the Society later, but am leaning toward allowing it.
thanks for the response! i am really excited about this character, even more so than when i imagined him as a soulknife.
ill finish up later tonight, (i will probably go with one of the favored class bonuses from other psionic races) once my neighborhood's scheduled power outage is over.

@Tenro: On reflection, any of the favored class bonuses for the existing races would be fine. Just let me know which you pick. And, as promised, a few thri-kreen traits:
Your exoskeleton provides especially effective protection against the inferior weapons common in the Tablelands.
Benefit: Your natural armor bonus is increased by +1 when an opponent attacks you with a weapon that has the fragile quality.
The paralytic venom you produce is especially potent
Benefit: When you bite an opponent, the saving throw DC of your venom is increased by +1 on the first round. A failed save that round automatically results in the maximum amount of ability damage.
You have spent much of your life studying unfamiliar cultures.
Benefit: Your gain a +1 trait bonus on any Knowledge skill check related to a race or culture other than your own.
For everyone else:I'm generally fine with re-fluffing other traits for Athasian races. I can review when you post a build.

I'm thinking kreen ranger. If you think that there are too many kreens, I'll roll another character. :)
It's up to you. But I will say that I'm inclined not to have more than one thri-kreen in the group. And as the only focused healer submitted so far, Tenro's kreen probably has a (chitinous) leg up.
Nnn'tkklik'l was a healer in his tribe, and he enjoyed it very much. To look after them and tend to their wounds was a great honor, and he was blessed with gifts to be able to do so. He often accompanied his tribe's hunters on hunts, ensuring that they came back alive, and suturing lacerations as necessary. It was on one such hunt that the tribe came across the aftermath of a raid. Durwadala, Nnn'tkklik'l's friend and a respected shaman of the tribe, heard the sounds of survivors in the wreckage and ordered hunters to investigate. A half-elf was found under the human corpse of what was likely its mother.
Durwadala decided to raise it. Could be useful, Durwadala says. Can go into town and trade goods for us, get better trade. Nnn'tkklik'l is not one to question Durwadala's wisdom. Named halfelf "D'Vreck". Tried to teach halfelf the way of nature, but halfelf had no gift for it. Despite some tribe member's doubts, D'Vreck could survive on its own and hunt.
One day, we were on a hunt, and slavers attacked us. Nnn'tkklik'l did best to keep hunters alive to fight off slavers, but the wounds were too many. He tried to absorb as much damage as he could, to give the hunters a better chance to fight off the slavers. They failed, and several hunters were captured along with Nnn'tkklik'l and D'Vreck.
Character sheet complete. I went with the Dromite favored class bonus (+1/2 members of Collective) (bug people unite!) and I took the Desert Nomad feat (perfect for nomadic tribal hunter thrikreen) and the Hardened Carapace racial trait you made.

As I mentioned earlier, I'll continue taking submissions until 5 p.m. Sunday, Central time. Based on the number and quality of submissions so far, I'll almost certainly choose a full group of six.
With that in mind, here's what I'd like to see as formal submissions:
Post as yourself with the following information, preferably in spoilers, or post as yourself linking to an alias with the pertinent information.
* A one to two sentence physical description of your character.
* A two to three paragraph background for your character, leading up to the point at which you were sold to Urik-based slavers bound for Tyr.
* A completed stat block in standard Pathfinder style. For examples, see the stat blocks posted by Peanuts and Arknight on the first page of the thread. The format Tenro used for "Nnn'tkklik'l" is fine, too.
For reference, here's what's been mentioned so far:
Tenro: thri-kreen vitalist
Berenzen: human defiler
Spazmodeus: ??
Stiehl9s: mul fighter (unbreakable)
Peanuts: half-giant barbarian (invulnerable rager)
Algar: human psychic warrior (feral warrior)
Scranford: dwarf magus
Oterisk: halfling ?
Viluki: human cryptic
Arknight: half-elf rogue (survivalist)
Skorn: mul druid
Dark Netwerk: human psychic warrior (assassin path, maybe traceur)
Nightflier: thri-kreen ranger
The Hirtz Factor: ??
Nnn'tkklik'l is tall and wiry even by the standards of thrikreen with dark green compound eyes atop his head. His carapace is primarily sand colored with patches of brown-orange clay coloration, and in several areas it is lumpy and irregular from the carapace having been cracked and healed over.
Nnn'tkklik'l was a healer in his tribe, and he enjoyed it very much. To look after them and tend to their wounds was a great honor, and he was blessed with gifts to be able to do so. He often accompanied his tribe's hunters on hunts, ensuring that they came back alive, and suturing lacerations as necessary. It was on one such hunt that the tribe came across the aftermath of a raid. Durwadala, Nnn'tkklik'l's friend and a respected shaman of the tribe, heard the sounds of survivors in the wreckage and ordered hunters to investigate. A half-elf was found under the human corpse of what was likely its mother.
Durwadala decided to raise it, as a halfelf is better received in town than a thrikreen. Nnn'tkklik'l is not one to question Durwadala's wisdom. Durwadala tried to teach halfelf the way of nature, but the halfelf had no gift for it. Despite some tribe member's doubts, D'Vreck could survive on its own and hunt.
One day, they were on a hunt, and slavers attacked them. They had probably gotten too close to the Urik road. Nnn'tkklik'l did his best to keep hunters alive to fight off slavers, but the wounds were too many. He tried to absorb as much damage as he could, to give the hunters a better chance to fight off the slavers. They failed, and several hunters were captured along with Nnn'tkklik'l and D'Vreck.
Completed.
I'm a great fan of Dark Sun, although I haven't played there in over a decade (when my brother and I escaped Urik's gladiatorial pits and went on the run). It'll be a busy weekend, I'll see if I can put something together before the deadline.
I'm also drawn towards a half-giant barbarian, although I see Peanuts has already submitted one. Would Endurance as a feat aid in adapting to the heightened water requirements? If not, are there any other feats which might help? Maybe a trait?
Some rolls for Aroxa, female half-giant barbarian
Probably arranged thus after racial modifications:
Str 23 Dex 13 Con 17 Int 7 Wis 14 Cha 13
I can post once-a-day the majority of the time, sometimes more. I run one PbP on these boards and I'm a player in a Dark Heresy PbP. I probably won't be making many multi-paragraph essay length posts in Gameplay (I do enough of that DMing), but I can guarantee consistency.
I'll post some more on Aroxa's build and backstory as inspiration strikes.
I'll bite, always wanted to play Dark Sun.
17 16 14 13 13 11, considering avg is 14 on 4d4+4 thats not bad.
Wild Talent:
Wild Talent 2:
WTH? At least psionics will be good.
2nd level power: ... Really good. Rolling 2x more.
2nd level: : Object Reading
2nd level:: Natural Linguist
2nd level power: : Inflict Pain
So, bonus 3pp, plus 3 2nd level powers listed above. Looks like going psionics for sure. Since I read above there was only one healer submitted so far, I'm thinking a Human Vitalist (Master Mender) support character, who was picked up as a slave due to his psionic talent to help keep other slaves going longer and longer than normal. Stats will be:
13 14 18 13 19 11
With 6 (class) + 4 (wis) + 2 (Wild Talent, unless you can get it twice) + 3 (bonus rolls) = 15 PP/day.
Edit: Hmm, just saw the other vitalist was a mender as well. Will probably change it to Guardian or Soulthief when I write it up, then.
I have a question. I know you haven't listed Dark Tapestry as an option for Oracles, but would it be possible to reflavor that as some sort of connection to the Grey? The idea would be for a human Oracle with the Haunted curse who continuously hears whispers from what she thinks must be the Grey. She feels it infects her mind and is constantly struggling against it. A little crazy as a result.
A few more details for Aroxa.
Wild Talent Roll:
1st level power:
Hmm, interesting.
I've been considering archetypes and I'm drawn towards the Breaker. With Improved Unarmed Strike and perhaps the Smasher Rage Power, it'd allow her to break items with her bare hands. However, you might not want this ability in the hands of a PC who's supposed to be a slave; it'd make breaking my bonds possible. Perhaps there are stronger deterrents in the slave caravan to discourage escape attempts.
As for backstory, I'm imagining that Aroxa was formerly part of a slave tribe in the badlands between Tyr and Urik. Perhaps before her life as a bandit she might have reluctantly served in the army of Tyr or Urik. A raid gone wrong led to her capture and subsequent enslavement.
Hi. Sorry about the delay. Hopefully I'll have time to work on the character this weekend. Lots of reading to do to make sure everything fits.

@Cuan: I'm intrigued. Go ahead and pursue that idea.
@Transylvanian Tadpole: Endurance won't reduce the amount of water needed, but will give you a bonus on rolls to avoid the negative consequences of not getting enough water.
As for the build - Breaker wouldn't be too much problem (giant-hair manacles are tough) but Smasher is way too much. Not a fan of that one.
EDIT: To restate an earlier point, I'm fine with feats/traits/abilities that give a character a bonus to overcome a problem; I tend to be opposed to those that allow them to ignore it altogether.
Ok, cool. I'll get to work on it. Now for my stats.
And for the human Wild Talent:
EDIT: By the way, do I get one of those Wild Talent rolls or both?
EDIT2: Nevermind, found it in an earlier post.
Now for my powers:
EDIT3: Now, I must say those are nice and flavorful for a character influenced by the Grey. Another question: Are these Wild Talents enough to be considered a Manifester for the Psicrystal Affinity feat?
|
|
Another question: Are these Wild Talents enough to be considered a Manifester for the Psicrystal Affinity feat?
No, I've modeled them after the powers gained through the Unlocked Talent feat.
Ok, thanks for the quick answer. That feat is a very interesting option for my free Psionic feat though.
i see it
Yay dark sun! I'm thinking Inquisitor, because 1) I've never done it before and 2) it'd be good for a pissed off ex-templar who was screwed over by a colleague.
Wild Talents: Ectoplasmic Trinket
Psionics Resistant
i like dark sun and i am a fan of psionics. let me see what the dice will give me. thinking either a halfling psion or a half gaint psychic warrior.
While I'm still working on the character I'll give you the basic idea of the refluff of the Dark Tapestry mystery.
The Entropic Shield & Black Tentacle spells as well as the Cloak of Darkness, Interstellar Void, Touch of the Void & Wings of Darkness Revelations pull a part of the Grey into the material plane, where it is shaped for it's function. In case of the Touch of the Void only the caster's hand is cloaked in Grey matter. For the Wing of Darkness revelation it could be nice to have the faces of nameless dead sometimes appear in it. The Interstellar Void revelation might need a new name and Touch of the Void should probably become Touch of the Grey.
The Pierce the Veil revelation would look like a grey mist hangs in the casters eyes as he/she sees the world through the grey when the world self is shrouded in darkness. This of course reduces the world to grey scale.
In theory the Spirit Walk revelation from the Bones or Ancestors mystery would also be a perfect fit, but that would be up to you.
As for the build - Breaker wouldn't be too much problem (giant-hair manacles are tough) but Smasher is way too much. Not a fan of that one.
Fair enough. In which case I'll go with Brawler for the rage power, or with Knockback if the first isn't approved.
As for feats, I'll choose: Endurance (my Impressionable feat) and Improved Initiative.
Traits: Resilient (+1 Fort Saves) & Desert Child (+1 saves vs. fire and +4 saves against hot conditions)
I'll try and put together a character sheet and a backstory later tonight or early tomorrow.
More questions:
Do the Eldritch Heritage feats exist for this game? In my case I'd specifically be interested in access to the Arcane bloodline, mainly for the familiar.
|
|
@Rokku: Pissed off ex-templars are the best kind of templars.
@Yingzen: Those stats are awful. Roll up another set if you like. You'll have a better chance of getting in with a halfling psion than with a half-giant.
@Cuan: Refluff looks good. I'm ok with pulling the occasional revelation from another mystery if it makes sense. Spirit Walk certainly fits the bill, as would Voice of the Grave.
I'm interested in both the familiar and the extra spells, which indeed wouldn't show up until level 11. If we do not reach that point then I'm more than happy with just the familiar.

I was able to use my tablet to create an alias for my character. I noticed I made a mistake in one of my rolls (wasn't supposed to roll a talent) so dropped the talent roll (and picked it up as a regular talent choice). Also decided to keep the other wild talent roll (extra feat) rather than drop it for 3pp.
Link: Gorkhan Trask
It's not finished yet. Still need to pick second trait, spend a couple of skill points, choose the second human bonus skill, write up the psicrystal stats (and choose the personality), and put together the description and background (which I'll get to when I'm at my computer tomorrow). Let me know if you see any issues.
Some questions:
- I assume the human breadth of experience involves the selection of specific weapons rather than categories, correct? (I went with the bard's friend)
- The Assassin's Path currently has a talent as one of its two powers. I brought it up on the dreamscarred press forums here. Jeremy says it should be a different power but hasn't determined it yet. I chose the prevenom weapon power so it should give some time for it to be figured out before level 3.
- I took metacreative talent for one of my traits. If you'd rather I not have it (since it sort of means the character could be armed) let me know. I don't mind swapping it out for something else.

@Dark Netwerk: Looks good so far, talent is fine. It looks like you won't be using armor much, but note that you can trade out Heavy and/or Medium armor proficiency for Shield Focus and/or the Armor Optimization feat (in the House Rules document linked in the first post).
Also, how about inevitable strike as the other path power, in place of distract?
My character is done, you can find Safia here.
I cheated a little on the background as it could probably be split into 4-5 paragraphs instead of the 3 it is now.
The sheet is a double thing. On top, outside of spoilers, a list as requested and below that my usual sheet, for my own use.
EDIT: I based the languages on what I could find online, not sure if it's correct.
can't find the time this game deserves so I'm going to have to regretfully withdraw my application. Good luck to everyone getting in this.

The "master" died along with a few other members of the house fron an unknown plague, as such the family has sold some of its slaves to pay for lavish tombs.
anything I missed gm?
oops
This wiry indivudual stands at 5.5 feet tall with black hair, his face seems to be slouched and dull. Not even his downcast brown eyes give one knowledge of his motivations...and scheming intellect. His name is simply Krellian, few at all remembers it true meaning in Giant, "Lord of Treachery".
Aroxa has returned to bondage for the second time. She was born into slavery, working the dangerous faces of Urik’s obsidian mines as soon as she had attained the size of her human fellows. In the unbearable heat of the workpits, her body grew strong, smooth and hard as the volcanic glass she shattered with her bare fists, and the dark sun burnt her hide the colour of the mahogony trees long swallowed by Athas’ deserts.
However, unlike the obsidian she worked at endlessly, Aroxa was not brittle. She learned how to bend to the needs of the moment, adopting the simpering obsequiousness of the weaker slaves, the dangerous bellicosity of the muls, or even the inchoate rage of the scourge-bearing masters as and when the situation demanded. She learned tiny measures of comfort could be bought by force from her fellow slaves. She learned that when the templars made their rounds, submission was the only course of action. And from a scant few of her fellow slaves, the kind that died swiftly under the whips of the overseers, she learned a concept to which she was born a stranger; the notion of freedom.
Aroxa worked and worked, her strength building, her body attaining adulthood. Emotions, opinions, entire personalities formed, thrived for a time, were discarded, but the ideal of freedom endured. What lay beyond the walls of the open pits? The sunlight burning at the end of the mineshaft, what land sweltered under its fire?
Just when her thirst was swelling to an uncontrollable thing destined only to destroy her, fate gave her its first, heady ladle of freedom, and Aroxa drank deeply of those cool waters.
When an entire face of obsidian collapsed in a midnight avalanche of broken shards, her opportunity of escape came. Leaving behind slaves, overseers and templars alike all cut to ribbons by the jagged black shards, she climbed the razor sharp ridges of the avalanche to freedom, though the effort left her hands and feet red and shredded. She did not escape alone, on her back she bore a fellow slave, a half-elf called Zeta who had lived free before being condemned to the mines.
Yet the wastes beyond Urik do not hold freedom in any esteem, and would have killed Aroxa in a matter of days were it not for Zeta. The half-elf knew some measure of magic, creating water to keep them alive from energy she harvested carefully from the hardy plant life of the desert. On this conjured supply they endured three weeks, marching deeper into the unknown without pause.
They were near to death when the slave tribe found them.
They slipped silently from the wind-carved rocks, with scavenged or improvised weapons in their hands and no mercy on their faces. Zeta sort to impress them with a display of illusion magic. The superstitious raiders killed her without a moment’s hesitation. Seeing her own demise pending, Aroxa adopted the pitiful, crooning tones of a slave mewling for succor beneath the master’s whip. Perhaps the slave tribe was amused to see a great half-giant grovel before them. Perhaps the display touched some shameful memories from their own time in bondage. Aroxa was not slain. She was bound to an inix, and brought back to the slave tribe’s camp.
The slave tribe, a band of raiders known as the Blood Ghosts, understood Aroxa’s strength and power could be put to good use in banditry. They fed and watered the half-giant, and tentatively offered her friendship. Aroxa responded in kind. Within a few months, she was bore the tattoos of allegiance to the Blood Ghosts; twin runnels of crimson ochre running from the eyes over both cheeks, and a red skull inked over her heart.
For one joyous year, Aroxa and the Blood Ghosts preyed upon caravans on the road between Tyr and Urik. They did well for themselves, thieving and capturing enough to live well by the harsh standards of the deserts. They did too well, for the templars of Urik began to feel the cost of their depredations.
A month ago, the Blood Ghosts ambushed a mekillot caravan. They ran straight into a trap. The forces of Urik were waiting for them; the slave tribe was smashed to pieces, half of its members slain, the others, Aroxa included, returned to slavery.
Now she finds herself bound in giant hair, on the road she herself has raided so many times, the thirst for freedom once more aching in her throat.

OK. I'm back and I've finished the character and the description/background. I went with On Guard as my second trait. The second human class skill was Sleight of Hand. Gorkhan's psicrystal is Nimble.
Inevitable Strike fits well with the path, so it works for me.
You're right about not using armor. With regards to Shield Focus & Armor Optimization, the first traceur archetype ability replaces the normal armor proficiencies, so I wouldn't have them to trade in for the other feats. (In other words, I gave up armor proficiency for 5' of movement, at least until 5th where it becomes 10', lol).
Here is a link to the character again: Gorkhan Trask
cant wait!
