Alright, I would like to submit Gregory Leichardt, a LN Android Machinesmith, for consideration :-)

Full background (and crunch) is avilable via his profile :-)

Cool looks good, was hoping to get a Machinesmith in the game.


Cool, glad you guys like the background. :) I've been a bit sparse this weekend due to PAX East eating up my time, but I'll definitely be ready to roll on Monday. (If I'm selected that is!)

No problem, don't forget a campaign trait as well. They can modify your stats some depending on what you choose.


This leaves me very interested, however, coming from a background of playing homebrew worlds exclusively I have no prior knowledge of this setting. Will this be a problem, or can I just learn as I go?

I am thinking of playing an alchemist, seems like an awesome class to reskin for a setting like this. Im thinking something along the lines of taking a level of Barbarian, playing rage as some kind of powerful chemical stimulant he injects himself with. Will take the vestigeal arm discovery and play it as a mechanical servo arm with different tools (one of them being a grenade launcher for bombs.

ill stop myself before I get too far ahead of myself. Gonna wait for a reply about my question, then take it from there.


I just put the finishing touches on my background. It's kinda short, which I don't like, but it's what I decided to write.


An application for U!!!

Character introduction:
6-0-K opened his eyes. That familiar tingle in his skull, the feeling that told him that some order had been given to him. Sitting up he was about to groan, his sore muscles aching terribly from the previous days work, but he quickly stifled the sound as an Andriod came walking into view. Feeling pain or complaining, even with something as simple as a disgruntled groan, would surely make them realize.

Around him his work companions were stirring as well, rising to their feet in the wake of the advancing Android before shambling along in its wake. 6-0-K felt the tingle again. Concentrating he made the broken metal thing in his skull respond. Not a moment too soon either. He was sure the Android had stopped for the barest second and looked at him, but it just kept walking. As it passed him he got to his feet like the rest around him, playing out the same charade as so many days before, letting his arms hang limply at his sides and shuffling along behind his “master”.

As he walked he ran through previous events in his mind. For a while now he had known that he was not 6-0-K. that was a name they had given him here. But it was the only name he knew. Whatever he had been called before coming here, it was all gone. No prior memories, no recollection of a life before that day when he had become aware of himself. The very thought of it made his skin crawl, recalling the horrific pain that had flared through him. Ever since then he had been extra careful around electric components. He didn’t know how they had not found out. He had screamed as the electricity had surged through him, but apparently all that had mattered to the Android was that the thing in his head had told it everything was fine.

His thoughts were interrupted by the hissing sound of the lab doors sliding open up ahead. He walked to his station casually concentrating to respond to the tingle as he was told to do so. Lately the hardest thing to do was remind himself not to go there before actually receiving the order. It was a bad habit, his fleshy human brain going through the motions, but he couldn’t afford to let them rule him. One misstep and he would be nothing but carbon and hydrogen.

Carbon and hydrogen. He didn’t know how he knew of such things. As much as he couldn’t remember his past, he knew they hadn’t been taught to him, but still he knew it. His best guess was that it came from the buzzing thing in his skull. It would make sense. He doubted any of the others working here had known about carbon, hydrogen and all the other chemicals they handled, before they had come here. Neither he nor they looked like the types who would ever have learned anything but violence. Hulking men with massive muscles, whose eyes would have most likely betrayed dim minds if they had not been so dead and devoid of personality. He shuddered to think that had been him just a few months ago.

As he stated to heave one of the heavy barrels towards his work bench, he began to think once more of freedom. He had to find a way out of here before he went mad with loneliness and boredom.

The Hero Point system mentions being able to trade it in for a feat. Do you allow this?

Dark Archive

@ Anthony- I am not familiar with trading a Hero Point for a feat, there are feats that grant additional hero point options and increases the max allowed. Hero Points are one time uses. Where in the APG did you find that? Human Barbarian looks fine.

@Je'Grik=Short backgrounds are good for lvl 1 characters, you are about to write your background.

Oh ya that is for Antiheros, which is an alternate of an alternate rule. We are not doing that.


This looks amazing! I wish I hadn't just stumbled upon this. Maybe next time. I love the setting.


I would like to follow this thread. Is Constructs of Castovel a homebrew or an AP?


Takesh is all ready to go!

I didn't change anything aside from the language (as we'd talked about) and adding a few more sentences to the end of the Background.

This is homebrew, but I use the AP format when I make my homebrews.

Looks like I had seven full applications so I will take all seven of you. PbP being what they are it is always good to have more than less. We had no one apply with a "dedicated" healer type, but Psionics do allow for some self-healing and you can always take heal skill for some post combat healing. Everyone please check into discussion tab for final checks and any questions. Game thread will be up soon, can begin posting as soon as its up.

Twislemail w/ Enuka Soulknife
Takesh w/Blue Psion
GM GLuttony w/ Half Giant Ageis
Gregory Leichart w/ Machinesmith
Je'Grick w/ Halfling Soulknife
Bilbo Bang Bang w/ musket master
Anthony Krast Barbarian for a 7th.


blast, I wanted to submit something (another Machinesmith) for this but then my internet went funny. Ahh well, I shall follow with interest :)
