Boram Sandyfoot, reporting for duty. This is Castien's replacement.

Liberty's Edge

Murder, you say? Good heavens!

Grand Lodge

Dotting!

(Although it doesn't show up on our campaign pages, to my knowledge, until we post on the gameplay thread.)

Liberty's Edge

Dotting with Fenchil - who should be leveled up by the time we get here ;-)

Would it be possible to open a gameplay thread to dot, so I automatically receive updates in the 'campaigns' tab? Thanks!

Gameplay thread opened for dotting, but not for playing just yet

Okay, all - due to me forgetting I'd submitted Boram for a different gameday mission, I'm now trying to decide between two other characters, also second level.

Kaddok is a human Shoanti fighter (viking) that uses the Thunder and Fang fighting style, using an earthbreaker in one hand and a klar in the other. He's got the ability to do a move-action (and, later, swift-action) intimidate (at +6) to demoralize, and he will eventually be getting the ability to rage and use rage powers, as well as lots of ways to intimidate foes, pretty much making him a combat monster. Not a lot of out-of-combat utility, though, and dumb as a rock.

Garret is a halfling bard (dawnflower dervish) that uses Dervish Dance and his battle dance in combat to give him a pretty good damage output (1d4+6, not bad for a halfling). At level 3, he'll be multi-classing with Unarmed Fighter to give him crane style/crane wing, which will increase his defensive capabilities significantly. He's not the power house that Kaddok is, but he's going to focus a lot on helpful spells and buffs (though his archetype doesn't give him the ability to inspire courage in others).

I like the flavor of both characters, but I'm not sure which one will serve me best in the long run. I have another bard, but with a very different flavor, so while some of the functionality is the same, the play style will likely be very different. Any opinions?

I ran Silent Tide with Kaddok and he's a front-line masher, which this group doesn't really have. I'd consider that, though a bard is everybody's friend, also.

Liberty's Edge

I could easily switch to a barbarian, he is also level 1.1 so it will not change anything. In fact, I'm still not sure I like the witch that much anyway.

Grand Lodge

Those all sound pretty amazing. I don't really know how to make characters...

... and I don't really know much about group design or balance. :-P

I wonder how we are doing, overall, on skills? I have a good diplomacy, a fair heal and sense motive, but (lousy 2-point clerics!) I don't even have Spellcraft yet for identifying things. At second level, I'll add that and Knowledge Planes and Religion.

Kellean: Most of my characters are patterned after, or exact replicas of, ideas I've found online. I put my own touches on them, sure, but that's about it.

That said, let's look at what we've got for sure.

- Banon, a ranged ranger (w/Fion), assuming he's joining us
- Fenchil, a finesse/TWF ranger
- Kellean, our resident healer

So, then...we could really use either of each of our characters, Culsar, though for balance purposes, one of us should take a caster and the other a masher (e.g., Barbarian and bard, or witch and fighter). I don't have a particular preference one way or the other, as I've said. Do you?

Liberty's Edge

No I don't. Well, to keep continuity from the other group I'll keep Culsar here.

Liberty's Edge

Then, here is Kaddok, Castien's new replacement.

Scarab Sages

There still room here?

Gronk. I think we are full already. Sorry buddy.

And dotted.
