I'm just about done, I just need to know what kind of guns we're using so I can do gear.
Hopefully I will have time tonight to look over the gun types. Though if Viluki wants those guns, then we will go with them.
I should be able to finish my stuff over the weekend, by next weekend at the absolute latest. Minus the unfinalized Drider stuff of course.
I recommend making all the non automatic guns from that guide available, the automatic stuff (the machine pistol, light and heavy machine guns) are something that will have to be crafted/invented because Phelthos isn't advanced enough to manufacture those items (although Pharnox might break those technological barriers, desperation is the mother of invention).
Is there any use for Kn. Religion in this campaign? Since Drow don't have religion and undead need magic to be created(for the most part)?
Also, would Hail of Bullets/Flurry work with a Double Barreled Shotgun?
My gut says RAW yes, GM no, but you never know.
After some thought, I have decided to just make a "basic" drow soldier. This has lead me to an Apex Warrior/Rogue mix, but I will be adding Horizon Walker to give it a little flavor if that is ok. I feel the favored terrain will be a great feature, as we will most likely be underground for...ever?

*Cough*
Sorry all, RL, aka Work has swallowed me up once more.
Please post your final submissions here so that Viluki and I can go over them. Also in the post please include items that you would like to have in the future. Each item roughly being around the following prices: 50 gp, 100 gp, 300 gp, 500 gp, 700 gp, 1000 gp. These can include magical items but please come up with an alternate description using our steam tech campaign in mind. though potions still work great!
Viluki any suggestions for my character to fill a void?
Rynjin, I think it might work but you would need to have rapid reload as a feat. Shoot, quick reload, shoot. ;)
Everything should be in drozak's profile. I will have an item list tomorrow evening.
The Hail of Bullets description: "When making a hail of bullets attack, the grammaton gunman can reload and discharge her firearm with tremendous speed, allowing her to make her hail of bullets attack." so the reloading part is handled.
Unless you're ruling I can't do it unless I also take the Feat, which I'm cool with.
The only real decision he had to make was what kind of soldier he wished to be. The purity of combat appealed to him, but he hoped one day to become something more than a mere grunt. To be an elite is his dream, and volunteering for the army was the first step to realizing that goal.
Personality: Wan is an eager soldier. He lives to prove himself, and would gladly qualify for the most dangerous missions. His own advancement is important to him, though he's not so ruthless as to throw others under the bus for his own gain. Guile is not his strongsuit, though like most Drow he's not above underhanded tactics in battle. Despite his very military focus, and the respect of discipline that comes with it, Wan is a very open and friendly person with his comrades-in-arms, and would give his life for them without a second thought (well...perhaps not a third thought).
I'll make a profile later.
As for things I'd like to get in the future:
-GRENADES!
-Adamantine Bullets.
-Bracers of Armor (reflavored as a rudimentary alchemical replica of a personal forcefield?).
-Some opportunity to get higher tech weaponry (probably needs to wait until later in the campaign, however).
Sort of goes without saying, as well, but the Big 6 items or their equivalent as the game goes on, unless this campaign is meant to be FAR harder than normal (PCs are considered to be 1 CR or more, later, without these items).
Rynjin...
-Bracers of Armor (reflavored as a rudimentary alchemical replica of a personal forcefield?).
-Some opportunity to get higher tech weaponry (probably needs to wait until later in the campaign, however).
Bracers is not likely, however you could get a natural armor fleshwarp done (like the amulet but done to your skin instead).
High tech, see the link below.

Give Pharnox time and GM willing Pharnox may start producing machine guns...
Also GM I believe that I will be redoing my character (http://mcarchetype.wikispaces.com/Cunning+Gadgeteer).
Yeah. Things might get rough in the future then. I get Wis to AC and I'm Dex based, but not having any sort of armor bonus can be killer.
Would something of a similar cost, but more like alchemically treated "Iron Cloth" be acceptable instead, then? It's cloth, but only has as much AC given to it as its enhancement bonus.
When I aid high tech I meant more along the lines of the Technology Guide stuff (since there's mention of such things being rare, but extant, in the campaign info), but if you can make me a rad shotgun I certainly wouldn't say no to that either. =)
I'm current working on getting everything into the profile now, but just so everyone knows my character will be a TWF "Ranger" type character.

@Vierdax, take a gander at this class... http://mcarchetype.wikispaces.com/Steel+Buccaneer
note sure on cloth Rynjin but I am working on something in discussion for "high tech" weapons... Check it out when I have it up.
That actually brings up a question I had that I had forgotten to ask. I know the drow are very technologically advanced, and that there will be guns just about everywhere. My question is, will everyone be using guns or just us? Everyone meaning enemies, allies, random dungeon critters etc.
Duergar don't use guns but that is because they are an "honor" obsessed race who believe ranged combat is dishonorable. Derro don't know how to make guns but they do occasionally steal them and use them. Guns are primarily a Drow weapon and you can expect any Drow allies to utilize them.
I suddenly don't feel so bad about losing this thread for a week or two. >_> I'll try to wrap this character over the weekend.
The weekend is over, and work is still got a hold of me. Nonetheless it looks like we got a few players still around...
OceanshieldWolf?
Ríoghan, Female Drider, missing a lot
Vierdax Maeurden, TWF/rogue/warrior, crunch done
Rynjin, Monk/shotgun, ?
Drozak, Fighter/ Ninja 2, crunch done
Pharnox, Iron Bombardier/Rogue 2, all done!
Inyl, alchemist/rogue (poisoner) 2, crunch done, Bowed out
Anyone I am missing? It is looking like I won't need a standard NPC to go with ya'll.
Yes, I'm here. My character's done, backstory posted above.
I am still lurking, as you said everything is done for Drozak
I'm currently suffering a terrible bout of the dreaded lurgy/headcold of doom, and not really up to much in the next day or so.
Holidays ate my brain. However I am back and should be able to get things rolling soonish.
Hope everyone had a happy holiday break and a good new year's.
Yes. And you?
Hello, my name is Taylor, I am very interested this campaign sounds amazing! I very much would love to play!
I would like to play a Gunslinger/Alchemist (If the Alchemist spells don't fit because of no magic, I am completely fine with playing the class as is with just no casting, still a strong class)
Going to roll my stats here then in another post make a character sheet!
Is this thread still alive? Working on my character, but just wanted to make sure this was still going.
It must be concluded unfortunately that this thread is no longer alive (unless a GM is found to revive it, if you can find a GM who will more power to you).
True Pharnox? Is GM Wolven no longer interested?
I'm assuming this because he hasn't posted in a while...
Sorry for the absence; work, life, and family have been keeping me ultra busy. Getting back into my normal schedule now.
How many players do we have? Initially I won't have a MC, focusing on the DMing unless someone has an NPC with them, then I will focus on that NPC.
When the Tide came, was it unexpected and many were lost to it? Once that is answered I will need to know a bit more about your families, who are you connected to and such. Make sure to have a background story built and put in your alias in a spoiler, feel free to communicate with the other players and make bonds amongst yourselves. I need each of you to post also your current position in the military (can be retired), jobs you held before the Tide, and any other main activities you were apart of before the Tide. Make sure to post your alias in the discussion thread with these details and update your profile aliases.
