Against the Whispering Tyrant in his own backyard.

Game Master Vrog Skyreaver

amy, thank you for your interest, but I already closed new player interest on last Friday. Apologies if you did not see that.

I'll get a profile up and if it's ok, just drop the basics and a link to the sheet into the profile since it is a lot cleaner, cross-linked, and will also be bookmarked through google docs.

Just need to touch up the background now.

HAHAHAHA! Just my luck! ;)

Thanks!

Fixed some things in my profile and listed the abilities of my Legendary Item.

I'm done. Let me know if there's anything that looks out of sorts. I'll either explain it, or fix it! lol

There are some very cool characters posted up here. Good jobs, all around!

Lefty, it looks like your pricing the crafting cost. Vrog said no on that, or so I thought.

How are you getting 3 9th level spells as a 17th level wizard? Magical knack improves your caster level, not your caster class.

Keep in mind that all your higher level spells have to be bought from scrolls because the PRC doesn't give you free spells at caster level increases. 17 9th level spells at 3875 gold each is another 65,875 gold. Blessed book just means you dont have to pay an additional cost to scribe them fromt he scroll to the spell book.

That's what I did. If that's wrong, I'll fix it.

Int 40, and an orange ioun stone. 2 bonus 9th level spells, and an extra caster level.

No, but his 7 levels in wizard do. An Arcane Trickster has little trouble finding and accumulating new spells, in my experience.

Thanks for looking at it, though. It's got to be right when we start.

Hiram, You're sheet is hard to read without prices, 6 tomes/manuals at 110,000 each is 660k. belt of physical perfection +6 144,000, headband of mental superiority +6 144,000. Amulet natural armor 50,000.

The bow tops 200,000, as does the falchion.

Did I miss somethign about wealth? pretty sure the limit was 880,000, no reduction for crafted items.

There were PMs flying around :)

I know my stuff doesn't equal out to 880000 from the market, but I have secrets :)

The orange ioun stone increases caster level, not spell casting class.

You still look at the spells per day for a 17th level wizard.

You just get to cast those spells with duration's and ranges as a higher level caster. Int 40 gives you 1 bonus. So your 9th level spells per day should be 2.

So you take wizard to 3rd level, giving you a bunch of 1st level spells (18) in your spellbook, and 2 3rd level spells. Then you go into arcane trickster, which increases your casting class, but gives no spells known.
Then you return to wizard at 17th level (3 wizard, 3 rogue, 10 AT).

For your 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th levels you could select a total of 8 spells of 9th level or lower.

All the other spells in your spell book (other than the 18 1st level and 2 2nd level spells) have to be purchased against WBL via scrolls. Without a blessed book you'd also have to pay the scribe cost as well.

No different than a fighter buying 4 weapons for multiple situations. He can only use one at a time, but they all count against WBL.

Feel free to look mine over as well. I haven't looked at my spells yet though.

CL 17, +2 trait bonus, +1 ioun stone. CL 20. Trait bonuses stack with untyped bonuses, last I checked.

I've never heard of having to buy scrolls for every spell you have. My wizards (and tricksters) got plenty for free in every game I've ever played.

If that's actually the case, I'd rather make another character, because any wizard would suck, let alone a trickster.

This elf is the James Bond of Kyonin. He works for the Queen, directly.

She's a wizard. 17th or so. She knows other wizards. Lefty's known wizards she never met. He killed some of them, and took their stuff. Scrolls, spellbooks...

I'll leave spells known to the GM to decide. I'd happily take as many as I want as well.

Check these for the difference between caster level and class level.

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic
"In the event that a class feature or other special ability provides an adjustment to your caster level, that adjustment applies not only to effects based on caster level (such as range, duration, and damage dealt), but also to your caster level check to overcome your target's spell resistance and to the caster level used in dispel checks (both the dispel check and the Dc of the check)."

It affects Overcoming SR, Dispel DC, and effects that vary with CL like damage dice, duration, or range. It does not affect spells known, spell slots, or anything that is dependent on character level.

Upping your effective caster level I don't believe gets you spells any earlier, they just increase the strength of the spells you can cast. So if you had Orange Prism which increases your caster level by one all spells that state X/level would be one higher than normal. But this would not mean that you get level 5 spells at level 8 instead of 9 as a wizard. For spell progression you need hard levels in that class or a prestige class that has spellcaster progression.

Jesus, dude. I know the difference. What is it you aren't getting?

He is a 17th level caster. He casts spells as a 20th level caster, 22 hours a day. 19th, when he sleeps. 40 Int gives you 2 bonus 9th level spells/day.

Are you new to this?

I'm sorry, i'm not trying to come across as antagonistic. Your last post looked like you were looking at spells per day based on a caster level of 20, not a spell casting level of 17. My bad.

I always ask people to look over my own sheet, and I learn new options and ideas by looking at what others do with theirs.

You'll see that I went for a different type of caster, I'm effectively a mystic theurge with a limited number of dizvine spell-like abilities. In fact my divine spell-like abilities are at a higher casting level then my arcane wizard spells.

You'd rock a lot harder as a straight wizard. Just saying.

We could use a real 20th level cleric. Serious divine power, and the spells to go with it.

I'd be happy to make one, using my rolls. Brutal.

GAH....This has been harder than I thought I have about half of my character done! Not familiar with the mythic rules tried to use them and just no

don't have enough time to try and rehash

I have several other characters that are straight wizard. I wanted to play around with something else this time.

Funny part is that with divine source, I can cast a couple of 9th level divine spells, and i have a ton of spell-like abilities.

Ack! I completely forgot I still had to write my background for this! ugh... There's what a few hours left? Hard to tell being in such a different timezone (Australia)

Gear's mostly finalized. I turned Rose from a ring into a cestus so I can finish off Tier 10 mythic creatures if necessary. I still need to spend another 300,000 plus, though. Yeesh.

Fnord, mind giving her a look over? You're pretty good with these things.

So far it looks pretty good.

Where is the immune to aging, energy drain, and death effects is coming from?

You could spend some of that money on a bigger belt and headband, ring of protection and boost your AC higher.

And here is fnord's submission with a profile.

That's cool. Very cool, really. Who wants to play the same old thing every time?

Revised list at full retail

Still very good.

What's with the cash? I thought the limit was 880k?

it depends: as you have sussed out fnord72, some people got more starting money than others. Then again, some people get to start with an artifact, so it's a fair trade.

as far as spells known go, Fnord72 is correct: taking levels in a prestige class as a wizard to not give you extra spells automatically.

okay, as it is now 8:30ish where I live, I'm going to go ahead and close submissions. looks like I have completed submissions from the following people:

Martial:
Hiram Morrow played by Ptolmaeus Arvenus
Troy McClure, played by DEWN MOU'TAIN
Arcane:
Manisha Johart played by fnord72

Divine:
Lorelei Starling, played by cosmic dream lord

Highly Skilled:
lefty, played by GM Goblin King
Baergar and Mûmak, played by darksmokepuncher

since we're at 6, and we don't have a 2nd healer, I'm just going to run with the above group. You'll need the help, and I can always just add a monster here or there to make up the difference =)

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who applied or expressed interest; this should be a wild ride =)

okay, with all of this character creation stuff outta the way, let me get the discussion thread created and i'll post the initial fiction there; once everyone has popped in and said hello IC then i'll get the 2nd half of the opening boxed text posted and post the first scenario.

good luck, and god speed.

Nice! Thanks!

don't thank me yet, it's only going to get worse =D

my goal is to give your soul the elbow drop.

what are we waiting for? :)

dunno.

*poke*
*poke*

What an awesome group! It'll be fun suffering through hellish torments together.

don't thank me yet, it's only going to get worse =D

Bring it.

go go post in the discussion room, so we can get this road on the show.

Recruitment is now closed, but feel free to watch from the discussion/gameplay thread. Thank you.

Just want to say I'm enjoying this game immensely. I don't want to be a post hog. We'll all be very busy soon, I think.

Oh, and recruitment is closed!

Glad to hear it sir.
