I'd like to submit something for this, I love M&M system and just need to come up with a cool magical concept. Eldritch brings to mind some Lovecraft so maybe I'll have a mystical private detective character whipped up.

I haven't come up with a backstory yet mainly because I don't know a whole lot about how or where Signal of Screams starts the adventure. Loosely Mallow (Marshmallow...android...get it? I'll see myself out xD) is a Dataphile from the society who loves knowledge and had devoted himself to the study of technologies and magic, fascinated by the higher metaphysics and unknown mysteries to be discovered. Basically very curious and perhaps prone to moral grey areas if it offers knowledge.
Crunchy: Mallow

@CrusaderWolf Its funny I too was thinking about trying out the Technomancer as I really wanted to try it. Do you think we should double down or should I go to another class for balance purposes?
I am interested and do not have any SFS characters and have not played this AP though I have run book 1 of Dead Suns. I'll start coming up with a character. I know this is a horror themed adventure, are you going to have a discussion pregame with the selected players about what horror is and is not ok with them? Triggers and such or what level of horror they are comfortable with? Or maybe just a 'this is the level of horror my game will be run at'.
Maybe there will be a few last minute entries? All and all still a decent bunch of characters.
Red my initial thoughts about her is this character feels more like an NPC then a PC. You squeezed a lot into one array which is a bit of a concern as well but the GM can handle that if he accepts it. Immortality would certainly seem to make consequences of your actions less extreme but the GM could of course incapacitate you or do things that don't kill you outright if the enemy knows your power. Ultimately I think a way to bypass the immortality would also be required but ultimately it'll be for GM to analyze and decide how the character fits the world and if he wants to restrict any arrays or immortality.
Wow. Alcelia is...using arrays to the maximum. Only thing that I can comment on is presence being 6 is exceeding the limiter of maximum 5 for attribute.
My biggest concern about growth would be the exceeding power level in stats can greatly unbalance. Also Hello wanderer82! If you would like any help with crunch just ask, M&M can be a bit intimidating due to the freedom to build however you like but its also very rewarding.
Just checking with GM, can ursa have beyond 5 starting attribute due to growth power?
I have waited this long I am not going anywhere WhtKnt.
*Keeps a pair of bear arms*
Sounds like fun!
Query for WhtKnt: It sounds like you have some idea of the area we will start in, is there anything you can tell us about the story/plot our characters will start in or will it be more sandbox?
Just a concern Daedalus, are those Rank 7 powers in your stat block?
Super excited but damn of course I'm at work without my stuff in front of me. I'll content myself to post concept without crunch for your feedback. After reading through your google doc I am sticking with my concept of a human archer who dabbles in artificing if you are fine with the Artificer advantage.
I have faith in WhtKnt to let us know when recruitment is greenlit before we start characters. There is a lot of setting and mechanical stuff that is important for him to make available before we start trying to build characters. That being said I too have a preliminary concept in mind I'll build around :D
I have a outline of the character I've planned but just waiting on you to recruit before I bother you for rules stuff since you are working on it still. My current build is assuming no racial template and will adjust if a particularly interesting racial template fits the concept.
Still very much down for this. Keep me in the loop when you are accepting players.
Saw this on a random passing as I was a interested person on first posting last year. Let me know if you pull the trigger on this I'd still be very interested.
By Aroden's shield! I'll dot this for now and see if I have the time to do it justice. Love the background incentive stuff.
This is a bit vague, any chance you could elaborate? Are you looking for pathfinder? Starfinder? 5e? Other systems? What would be the schedule of this live table?
Starfinder yes please.
If I make a guy I'll likely do Zakhan the Drunken Master. I would more likely then not be interested if the game concept is a humorous setting with less serious stakes.
Heh considering Pooky is basically an elder god thing pretending to be a rabbit...yeah not all character decks work out. What you have here is just a long list of archetypes that would need some adapting to work with pathfinder. Is the intention to make this a comedic game as well like RDI?
I like the concept of the game even though I am no expert of 40k lore(except lots of If the Emperor had a text to speech device episodes). I recognize recruitment is closed so if you find the need for another player let me just hang out as a backup interested party. I think it might be cool if at some point Xeno opposing factions might be played. Although trying to manage all that might be a mad dream.
would it be too weird to play a LE Skeletal Champion Human Cavalier Ghost Rider 4? I was going to make a cavalier ghost rider...but last few days I've made like 4 different characters trying to make a good one for this game.
Yeah I'm purposefully not picking the obvious lich or graveknight with cheesy immortality. Even the Nameless One was less immortal just regeneration with only a few specific things that could negate it. I'm looking at the template to try something unique that makes the character more interesting not just mechanically better. I even considered a skeletal champion just for being a intelligent skeleton man with class levels.
Question for Lonely DM, I read your rule on custom race but what if I merely want to flavor an existing template like Half Dragon mechanically into a Half-Titan? I can create something with you though if you prefer but I have a fun character concept that is less about the number crunch and more about the idea and RP.
I like the flawed stats I'll have, adds a little something fun. I'm trying to avoid playing an inherently evil person/race template as I feel that has been overdone for me recently. Just 2 more hours and I'll start working on this from home...
Also DM is this the Athas link you were looking for? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9vv1a7v3y5BbEowUzZkQ1NBdlk/view
Second stat set: = 9
I am happy with this set and will start working on a character tonight! The template thing seems like an awesome way to make some truly unique sigil characters. My Planescape Torment excitement is growing. :)
I love everything about this and want to join! = 11
Dayum haven't played Path of War in some years that could be fun.
This sounds awesome and I need a new PBP since the GMs in my other ones shut down. I will submit something hopefully in the next few days,
I recommend checking the recruitment forum.
I don't really know the system well but liked the books.
Good luck to all and you are welcome to contact me as alternate if needed.
So you can see what I'm looking at currently, background still in works. Byung-He: Byung-He

Just checking in I'm still here. I have a unsatifactory crunch Life Oracle atm that I am working on possibly with the Pei Zin Practitioner archetype from healer's handbook.
I am interested and since no one has shown interest I will offer up a divine/healer type once I can crack open my character builder when I get home.
So do we have to ask you for what we want or can we build a 150 pp character and submit it with powers and all? I was going to use the random character generation tables which give power sets thematic to the type of hero you are building. Can you let us know the origin and power source? A gageteer might be harder to justify if the power source is mutation but not impossible.
I'm not familiar with Emerald City Knights so that works!
Hmmm indeed maybe the above is the story told to the public because the other story is less impressive. I have not read into season 2 yet but hopefully they update the anime in good time.
I didn't go too much into backstory due to one of the big themes of OPM being how each villian/hero seems to have this long elaborate backstory and Saitama just is a hero for fun. If I had to follow in the non Saitama theme then for backstories and make mine over the top cliche, I would say that he always loved bugs from a young age and became an Entomologist to travel the world finding new species. However one night he was tracking a rare species of beetle into an area where secret toxic waste was dumped illegally. The ground gave way and he fell through a nest into a pool of chemicals. That mutated him and fused his dna with bugs and now he can turn into a swarm of bugs or use other bug like powers but he seeks to find out who illegally dumped there because now he is creepy and people dislike his crawly bug man body. Saitama-20 WORDS OR LESS!
I am interested!
Here is my submission. The hero is a mutation origin, he in hindsight reminds me a lot of the mosquito girl from episode 2 but that was not my original thought process, I just used a lot of random rolling to generate him with a theme.

Going to have to withdraw my application, sorry DM. I'm sure you have tons of interest tho!
Sorry you didn't get the response you were looking for? Should I continue making my character?
I am willing to give it a try as I love OPM and M&M system. Please tell me we get bonus PP for punny powers. >_> *Hides under rock* |
