Choosing what character to play


Wrath of the Righteous


Greetings fellow crusaders, our GM will start this adventure probably when the pawn box is released so I'm pondering in advance what to create for the campaign. I've read the player companion and I do realize I should play goody-good character but I've got horrible idea...

Chaotic...Good... Goblin gunslinger... Somewhat the idea that there's small 3 foot fellow, standing in the front of desperate army ready to give up got me. ''You think you humans are so strong, you're so intelligent and brave - One gobbo stands in front of death, knowing death will come, death will kill, death will take, but still I go! 'Cause in the end... someone's gotta do the dirty things...even if it's the small gren fella...''

Imagine one little goblin whose stubborness in face of certain death embarasses the whole army and they have no choice but to follow him in battle, because who wants to say that one goblin was more brave than army of men?

Basically I find this character wonderful rp-wise, very ''basic-like'' character, who finds the customs of humans limiting but in heart he is pure gold. What do you think, would this kind of character suit the campaign? Or is gunslinger already too much :D

If I wanted to powerplay I should probably create some int-based character for rounding up our group, but I've played too many times wizard with battlefield controlling/summoning, so I would like to try something more simple. Most of all I want character which is appealing to roleplay.

And we have half-orc barbarian in our team... we just need green gripli and we can say ''the world was saved by three green heroes...''.

Opinions?


i myself am going with dayrunner orc cavalier beast rider, i find especially in save the world type campaigns the scoundrel is the way to go.


Personally, I'd love to have a character like that as my table. I'd say go for it. Fair warning that there's not a lot of guns in this setting, from my understanding, but I think that's the only issue I see.

Ahm, it seems that some of you have misunderstood the point of my post - I didn't ask what characters folks are playing, the question was: would goblin gunsliner be acceptable in this campaign? And if anyone has any tips of playing int-based character who is not battlefield controller wizard.

I don't see a problem with a goblin gunslinger. And such a pc would even fit in with the martial campaign trait. The one that disallows you to play a hero but forces you to be a tainted guy no-one would want to have around with demons involved.

As to int based: There could be a lot of int based PCs working out. Thanks to one PrC (I think student of war) that gives int to AC instead of dex even int based (int + strength actually) would work. Or Magus or alchemist.

I'm pretty sure Iomedae is known as The Inheritor not Sarenrae


yep, Sarenrae is The Dawnflower
