well no word from the GM for a couple days huh. i know hes busy with work and a couple other games. wonder how its comin along though


yeah, in that light, megacampaign may not be such a hot idea. that is a lot of effort and i have been in a few games that die due to it.


He's dealing with some health concerns right now. Not sure how serious they are or if they are at all, but yea, been a bit of an ongoing thing.


ah i see. hope everything's ok


Sorry about not posting, everyone! The past few days have been pretty crazy with all the stuff that's been going on and then I lost my phone yesterday. I found it, thankfully, but will have to post later, because it's about time to catch up on some sleep!


it just seems worse to us because we are so anxious. one day of no posts seems like a week!

QFT :) One time after college, my roommate found me pacing in front of the microwave, staring in at a burrito and muttering, "Why can't this bleeping thing go any faster?" :)

Get some rest, GM

And Githzerai.


@GM any idea on a time frame?


You know, even if I'm not picked, I'm going to stat Akula out. In theory she's pretty mean. :)

As of right now I'm Ophiduan, I really want to see the Githzerai though. They'll be really good for me if they're similar to the ones in the Expanded Psionics Handbook for 3.5


TSP is having technological woes. He can only currently post from his phone, which is currently broken.

Well +6 Dex is rarely bad for a character, eh? :)

Especially for an archer;)

I stated mine out as well. i didnt add a race at all though so as soon as i decide on that ill tweak it a bit and be done


I'm waiting for races to stat things up. A cool race often has the potential to solidify a concept for me.

I've statted mine out as an Ophiduan, but if the Githzerai have their old Dex and Wis bonuses, Talorek is changing appearance.


I kinda want to make Iron Man with an Aegis/Wilder or something.


I'm back everyone!

This is a general announcement for everyone in one of my campaigns or recruitment.

The screen on my phone was shattered, which has prevented me from posting in the past like week because I have not been able to scroll down a webpage with a cracked screen. I took a picture of my phone with a friends phone, so if anyone is interested in me verifying that it was a real problem, I can post it and provide a link. I know it's not necessary, but I don't like just telling people that there is a problem without offering some sort of proof. I feel it helps you all to trust that I tell the truth, since some people are compulsive GM-slackers.

I SHOULD be good on posting until around September 2nd, when I go to the endocrinologist for my appointment. Obviously on Thursdays I will not be posting, but that had already been mentioned.

I will be working through my discussions and recruitments todays, so I will not be posting until tomorrow.

PSIONICS PEOPLE! Down, you psionics-rabid people, down! :P I shall unveil at least 7 races tonight! I will also be answering any questions you all have as well.


Is everyone amenable to me opening a new recruitment thread for you all so I can have an easier time keeping track of when new posts are up?


I was just thinking of suggesting that. Also good for making the char creation guidelines clear, since they're kinda spread out atm.


I agree, a proper recruitment thread will be good:)


Drat! I was about to post my character concept... I can wait though! :)


Sure. I agree it would help to have all the charop stuff up in one place too.


Okay I think I may have FINALLY settled on what I want to be, since looking around at stuff it looks like you can make an amazing shapeshifter with Psionics, unlike what's possible with magic.

Just waitin' on the Recruitment thread later today. =)

Does the build require Gestalt? Because if not I might steal it for something else. I've always wanted to make a great shapeshifter.


It's not Psionic, but there is the Skin Changer., and RavingDork made a great Mythic Wizard for shapeshifting.

7 races? I'd thought I'd slept through the announcement but...

Did I miss the new recruitment thread?

It SORT of does.

The only way to get Metmorphosis/Greater/True is through Egoist, and a 1/2 BaB character is hardly your ideal melee combatant.

But fusing it with a 3/4 or full BaB class (I'm torn between Psychic Warrior and Aberrant Aegis) and going into the Metamorph PrC can be really darn good.

And hey, with Master of Many Forms (which is a baller Feat my god) and the 8th level Egoist ability I can manifest Metamorphosis on me and 1 other person as a Swift, so there's that.

Wow... I just took a look at Metamorph. That IS pretty nifty.

I think a build like that should lean toward Aegis. The good base attack, fort and will save, and defensive options would really dovetail with egoist. Not to mention they are both intelligence based (sort of).

But a psychic warrior's path abilities and feats could still make a solid build. So you are right. Either would look good/work well.

Oh that's a shame. Really damn cool build, though.


Yeah. The Int synergy was the main point that made me lean toward Aegis.

Honestly the main reason I wanted Psychic Warrior was because a few spells on their spell list (like Psionic Lion's Charge) make a natural attack build amazing.

But I just realized that I can take that Expanded Knowledge Feat and get it on the Psion list anyway.

And with gestalt, you have the capacity for more psionic feats than normal. Consider squeezing in psionic body. It's not awesome, but it could equate to a fair amount of extra hit points... maybe?


No one missed the recruitment thread, I'm working on getting all of the requested races statted up for inclusion in the recruitment thread, as well as the world lore! I figure it's easier on everyone me doing it this way, yes?


I'm still excited. I may need some time upon seeing the races to digest them and get a submission together, but I can wait until you're ready to drop the information in your way.

Unfortunately Aegis gets no Bonus Feats and IIRC neither does Psion, while Metamorph's are fixed (and I probably want them earlier than that would give me them, so I'll be taking at least 1...hopefully Retraining will be alowed later).

A Psion gets bonus feats as wizard, 1st, 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th.

If Psychic Warrior is used (or dipped), 1st, 2nd, 5th, 8th, 11th, 14th, 17th, 20th.
The Psionic Fighter archetype starts out with Wild Talent and either Psionic Fist/Shot/Weapon and then can pick fighter feats and psionic feats for which they qualify. Arguably Psionic Fighter is a psionic class, so psionic races with 'naturally psionic' would swap wild talent for psionic talent.

And even if the psionic feat is chosen for you, like any the Metamorph PrC gets, it's still a psionic feat. :D

But yeah... Aegis is still probably a better fit.


My main issue with Metamorphosis is it seems to limit getting Natural Attacks to either 2 claws, 2 slams, or 1 bite, which seems really weird, unless I'm reading it wrong.

I'd need to have a race with natural claws or bites to stay competitive which kinda defeats the purpose (especially since the Metamorphosis spells are pretty generic and not so much transform-y).

I thought there was an Aegis option for claws, but apparently the only ability for natural attacks is a Tentacle or Stinger, and that only for Aegis.

I may drop Aegis and go Barbarian, or Ranger or something just to get enough natural attacks to make it worthwhile at higher levels.

But at high levels, with True Metamorphosis (duration boosted to Permanent via Permanent Shift) it will be so great.


GM did you miss me?


Think I'm definitely going Khymer. It just seems to fit, mechanically they mesh well (being well suited for any number of classes with their flexible attribute bonuses) and flavor-wise a sentient pool of an amorphous blood-like substance that inhabits corpses seems like the perfect candidate for becoming a shapeshifter (and having a good reason to want to step outside their own skin...blob...whatever, as it were. I don't think a little self-loathing as far as their base existence goes would be out of place, given their origins and needs for continued existence).

That is, of course, unless another race wows me. =)

Got my guy statted up, just waiting for the Recruitment thread to flesh him out story-wise.


I kind of like the android but not being able to gain morale bonuses puts me off it. It makes sense and all, but ouch
