Seeking Replacement for Serpent's Skull PBP


Gamer Connection


Hello, there. I'm running a Serpent's Skull PBP here, and we've had one character drop out due to RL concerns. We're still early on in the AP, so we'd be able to work in a character at first level. The current party make-up includes Fighter, Oracle, Rogue, Sorcerer, all Human. If somebody is willing to put together a character for this AP and can commit to at least check the thread once every day, perhaps two, we'll see about working you in.

By popular request, we're looking for something with a bit of a Divine flavor. Cleric, perhaps, possibly Druid or Ranger. Priority goes to those who build something within that general idea, then first-come-first-served. For those wishing to apply, please put together at least a general idea of character background (can be fleshed out later) and an idea of the build at 1st level (if not a prepared character page).

If you are preparing a character page, I prefer that you format your information to cover at least all the bases of the basic stat blocks. Here is a sample of how I tend to format my character blocks for PBP.

I suspect this will be opening will be inside the next 8 hours, based on what I've seen of previous PBP recruitments. I wish you all luck, and I look forward to seeing your submissions.


Getting the first request in, read your OOC thread and your e-mail for my offer, TheManBehindTheCurtain. Not a cleric, but I would like to give Suny and myself another try.


I am very interested, but currently busy at work. I will submit the following until I have a chance to make a proper submission.

Thank you.

For your consideration Tandanu Elf Ranger(Guide)

Description:

Tadanu is extremely tall and slender even by elven standards. His exceptional height and willowy appearance accentuates the extreme grace and fluidity that he moves with. He seems to almost float across the ground and despite his height moves fluidly through the bush as if being part of it. His hair is worn long as is the tradition of the Ekujae peoples with several braids interwoven through it. His skin is deeply tanned and a complex tracery of geometric tattoos covers his face to bring attention to his deep violet eyes that seem to cut through you. He is dressed in lightweight leather armor dyed in a pattern of lush greens and browns. A well wrapped shortbow slung on his back and a pair of short handled handaxes hang at his waist is overshadowed by the mighty elven curveblade that he handles with grace and skill.

Personality:

Is a very frank and honest individual who tells it like it is. Will not suffer fools and sees anyone who is willing to go into a situation blind as foolish and will tell them.

Motto:

"It is what you did not see that would have killed you in the jungle"

Background:

Tadanu is a member of the Ekujae Elves of the Mwanji Expanse. He spent the first part of his life amongst his own kind living within the jungles of the Mwanji expanse with much of that time spent in the Mwanji jungle. He spent much of his time out with members of his clan traveling the jungle. He learned much in that time about the threats in the jungle and has become accustomed to them. Around his 100th year of life Tandanu like many of his people felt the calling of the brightness. The calling tugged at Tandanu so that he eventually felt the need to leave the lands of his clan in search of the brightness. He spent several years wandering the region of the expanse eventually ending up in Whitebridge Station. The settlement there run by the Aspis consortium although not welcomed by the Ekujae elves was tolerated. It was here that Tandanu met a group of merchants that were looking for a guide. Tandanu decided that helping keep the ignorant merchants alive while they wandered the jungle was the honorable thing to do. As well, he felt that it may help him in his seach for the brightness had been searching for. This led to several other expeditions that Tandanu became part of and despite his apparent arrogance and abbrasiveness he gained a reputation as an excellent guide. Most recently he has been asked by the Aspis consortium to head to Eleder to lead an expedition that is setting up another trading post in the Kaaya Lands. Still questing for the inspiration that will lead to his brightness Tandanu has boarded the Jenivere a small trading ship out of Senghor headed towards Elder to meet with the expedition party.


I would like to introduce Gorbaz, a dwarven cleric.

Gorbaz, ProudHammer

I also have a pciture of him as an earth oracle. Either would work well with the concept. I can flush both oput if theres interest


Hello again, Petronicus Wintrish. Unfortunately, as I mentioned when you first applied, I'm not ready to handle Psionics. I honestly don't like Psionics in 3.xE or 4E, either. Too complicated to mix Psionics and Magic and Mundane for me. I know my limits. As far as Suny, I respect the character. Unfortunately, the party isn't looking for another Fighter and Aquatic characters are slightly unbalanced against normal ones. The next time I run a 3.xE campaign, though, I'll take another look at both of your characters. My apologies.

Thetis and Gorbaz, I like the looks of both of your characters. I think we can make both of you fit. If you could finish spec-ing your characters in the next day, we'll be able to work you in shortly after that.

Gorbaz & Thetis:
So, since we're working you in after the fact, we'll have to have you come in on a different ship, the Tattooed Lady. Sole survivors, as it were. As far as character creation, we used the following method to generate ability scores: Automatic 18 and 8, and 10-points to spend on the other four ability scores. You also get the following items as a freebie adventuring kit that doesn't count against your starting cash:

-Backpack
-Dagger
-Rations (1 day)
-Waterskin
-Bedroll
-Sack
-Flint & Steel

Other than these items, average starting wealth by class. Core and APG are legal, and anything I can see that is not third party on the SRD. I can also conditionally allow a few other items, depending on the splat book, like items and traits from Adventurer's Armory. If you have a question, feel free to ask. All traits are open, one being a campaign trait.

Notes: Gorbaz - you can't have both Caves and Earth. Caves is a sub-domain of Earth; you'll have to pick on or the other and grab a different Domain or Sub-Domain from Torag. I definitely like the idea for the personality, and I like him as a Cleric. Thetis - I like the idea. Can't offer any critique until I see how it's put together. Both of you - very good ideas, and I look forward to gaming with you.

Thank you. Recruitment closed.
