haha... I literally just came back to post that after I got a little Google sidetracked. Only took a minute of Google searching to find it once I became unsidetracked. Shows how much people have no idea how to use Google really...

I'm going to Karrin's next line:

"I don't want to alarm anyone but this stew tastes a lot like elven flesh"

Because it's alarming on so many levels.

That is both disturbing and hilarious in equal measure...

Sophie is updated

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

Once Merle's Haste runs out, Sophie will drink her own Haste Extract next round so she can be back into the fight quicker.

It’s funny you should say that. Maybe Pru should wear her Tank Top to breakfast in the morning. :D

I thought those were just your sorority sisters.

My girlfriend is asleep beside me and I had to stifle a laugh. It was not easy, but preferable to death.

Yeah I don’t see it as an issue. I hate to use the cliché, but just because you’re a white cop, doesn’t make you a part of that sub culture. There are still plenty of good cops, the same as there are bad cops of other “races”. It shouldn’t have to define who you are as a character.

I luv this spell.

Yeah it's pretty awesome.

I have a couple of favourites that are stock standard for classes I take. This now gets added to the list (not that I play Wizards often, but I've been known to play Sorcerers). lol

I'm happy to Handwaive until the meeting, but everyone else can chat still, not worried either way.

So... does anyone else find that they can’t edit a character on their phone? I tried to do a little bit with Corvidae last night in bed and couldn’t?

Speaking of old ones how do you feel about Deep one hybrid
Well, I can work with it. You’d probably come from the other city to the south of Opal, Threepenny Port

I guess it would depend too how far inland we could be venturing. If it’s any more than 10 miles you could be in for a world of hurt.

Yep. I *really* like the Shadowdancer, but I‘ve never successfully been able to pull off a build to my satisfaction. I was contemplating trying to utilise it in Corvidae’s build, but it looks like I may not have to.

THAT is so cool Flash! Nice find! :)

So far, in order to satisyfy my usual lust craving for magic, AND be useful as a skill monkey, the only thing I;ve thought of so far was either a straight Investigator, (maybe dual class as sorc/or wiz) or some multi class combo of (insert things I havent figured out yet) maybe Alchemist, Rogue, Wiz/Sorc. But some combo that wont make him worthless at mid/high lvls. >_<

Yeah,... I'm still looking,... ;P

I went an unusual way with my Investigator (Sophistscia). But then I normally go an unusual way with most of my characters. I’m just lucky Pat indulges my oddness. ;)

Hey Pat, It seems like in Opal & area, there really isn't too much that's off-limits, far as races go.

Perusing your long and excellent history of Opal, are there any races that YOU'D like to see? Or think that they dont get enough attention usually? Except as set dressing?
Dragon born, Lizard folk(ish), etc etc,... ?

I'd like to take that into consideration as well with everything percolating in my brain. :)

(Makes me think of things I wouldn't have otherwise thought of. It's worked before with my best bud/GM and it never failed to work out great!)
:)

My first inclination was to play a Sliss’pok (Lizardfolk), but then I found the pic and had to create Corvidae instead. I’d love to see a Sliss’pok party member. :D

Woo Hoo, Rags is in da House! This game is gonna be off the chain good!

I'm definitely going to be playing a fighty type, I'm still combing through possibilities though (I'm a hold the book guy, and reading it all on the computer isn't my ideal way to create a character; I'm at my Girlfriend's so don't have access to my books until I head home on the weekend, just my .pdfs).

Its definitely going to be some kind of Stealthy Fighter, I'm just not sure which way I'm going to head with it.

Tossing up between:
Magus (some may say I have already exhausted my allotment of playing a Magus, but to them I say Pish Posh)
Fighter
Swashbuckler
Slayer
(any of those combinations could also be paired with Rogue)

Yeah I’ve been looking up a lot of firearms and customisation options (including illegal ones) lately. So yeah, if anyone’s keeping an eye on my search history I’m probably going on some watch list...

Gonna be a bit of a fighty squad by the sounds of it.

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

Treppa there are stats for a Raven if that helps?

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

I have finally been able to nail down Pru's Stats (had to do a rework of them after my brainstorm and it's taken me a while to get to it) and am about 3/4 of the way into typing them up into my Character Sheet template to transfer to Paizo, so they should hopefully be up tomorrow.

”Awesome, how does Saturday morning sound? You’re right, now might not be the best time,” she gestures towards the fading afternoon light outside. ”I should probably head over to The Country Inn and find a room before it gets too much later. Once I’m checked, I’ll have to find somewhere to eat. Are there any good vegetarian or vegan places around?”

Hey my BBEG rolled a ZERO for initiative. I mean, she went from credible threat to target practice.

I think her biggest mistake was getting too close to Karrin...

I want PRU to head over to Halifax and hang around for the week, doing a little snooping on the place and the town itself.

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

OK... So... after getting all of her stats ironed out, all I had to do was enter them into the Word .doc so I could port them over to Paizo. But then the other day in the shower I had a brainstorm for a way to redo her stats a bit more how I wanted them initially but wasn’t able to. So while the character herself is all good, I’m gonna do a rework on the stats I had done. I hope we don’t need stats for a short bit. *fingers crossed*

I usually write long backstory, but nothing like 2-3 pages!!!

On p 130 there are non-path careers like Business Owner. Or possibly Customer Service.

Business Owner might actually be a good fit skill-wise, depending on what you're looking for.

I did consider Business Owner. Criminal, IT, and Service Industry were the others I was noting as possibilities.

I think you're on the money though and Business Owner would be a good one for her. Thanks everyone for the input.

I suspect the PC who is a madam and the PC who is a cop are going to get along great! (Don’t worry - I like reasonable PC conflict. Good roleplay opportunities. Nace has plenty of secrets of his own and won’t be putting any PCs in handcuffs. Probably.)

lol... I was thinking the same thing when I saw your Profession

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

I admit I am still having trouble locking down a Career. Everything else is planned out and ready, but I just have no idea what to give her as a Career, I'm at a loss. So I figure I'd reach out to you guys and see what you all think is a good fit.

She is a Witch of Bastet. She started her career in IT, but was fired and began working as a prostitute. She worked her way into a position where she runs girls who she treats well and protects, and who she uses to gather information. It's a weird concept I know, which is why I'm having trouble nailing a specific Career path for her.

Thoughts?

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

I always plan my characters out in advance. I even have a special sheet I made up just so I can do it (it also helps greatly when planning for a character who starts at a higher level).

You

OK. Just going through the rules a bit. So, as of now we have:

David
Flash
Shadow
Stiehl9s
KingHotTrash
Helikon

I know some others evinced early interest, but they haven’t posted after I made the decision to go with SW. If you are still interested in playing, please comment and I will add your names to the list. If your name IS on the above list, please confirm you are still interested in the game and start thinking of a character

KingHotTrash has been replaced by AGAmer70 though.

Game has started btw, so if you don't get up a character soonish, we may have to encounter you after the initial setup/grouping.
