DM Bloodgargler's Kingmaker (Inactive)

Game Master BinkyBo

{Kingdom Tracking Sheet} {Downtime} {NPC list} {District Grid}


1 to 50 of 97 << first < prev | 1 | 2 | next > last >>

Looking for one 4th level.

The first stones of the kingdom are being laid now.

We have a
Dragon Disciple Sorcerer
Storm Druid
Cavalier/Bard
Oracle/Barbarian

Intelligence based caster or alchemist would be ideal.

20 point buy, core book, APG, UM, UC, Inner sea world guide and magic all usable.
Advanced race guide content will most likely be ok'd

Max hit points first level
2nd level and up... roll half max + half max
(ie... fighter 1d5+5)

One trait for now... if a kingmaker campaign trait fits, go ahead and take it as your second trait. Otherwise, please wait on your second trait.

Sczarni

what kind of cash do we have to start with?


I'm playing in another Kingmaker game (Though the GM told us he was putting a lot of tweaks and touches to make his different) currently, at about the same level. Would that rule me out from trying out for this?

Sczarni

I'm thinking a counterspelling focused aasimar middle aged, int as high as possible, focusing on skills and also able to disable device etc.

Silver Crusade

Do you have any particular feelings against a Half-Orc Barbarian 1/Witch 3, using the Urban Barbarian and Scarred Witch Doctor Archetypes? Basically, a Witch that uses Con as casting stat, and can still cast spells/hexes whilst raging?

Haven't quite fleshed out a back story yet as I wanted to see how you felt about it all. I have a few ideas that I'll pitch if you're ok with it, but if not I'll go roll up a different character instead :D

Sczarni

I'm going to say that goes against their idea for a int cased character.

Silver Crusade

Haha, just have to wait and see I guess. It's normally a Int-cast class, and it largely functions like that. Just tanky, with high spell DCs.


I'm interested! It'd be the first time I get to play that high level in Pathfinder, though, hope that's no problem.

Seeing the classes already present, it seems like a utility-wizard is best fit?
Certainly seems like the offensive part is pretty much covered but some extra utility might come in handy?
I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of a Wizard who's interesting in witnessing (and assisting) the shaping of a new kingdom firsthand and wishes to see to it that the events leading to it properly recorded.
Human or Elf, not certain yet... I think human fits best.
No big and strange plans, straight-up wizard, no dreams of prestige classes.

Sczarni

no they are specifically looking for someone with a int attribute due to the kingdom building rules.

You make a valid point.

Sczarni

yeah otherwise I'd be considering a mystic theurge build I've had in my head for a long time.


(Looks in interestedly*

Might there be a place fer some one who dun't quit fit in't any mold? (^_^)

Or...flailin' that, I've an idea fer a Gunslinin' lassy?

Thoughts? DM's fiat?

Very much cheers to all.

Hello Suny :)


Yes... In addition to the group requesting an Int caster or Alchemist, I am looking for a character with high Int for kingdom leadership.

Counterspelling Aasimar sounds good
Utility wizard would be good.

I do have much love for the Scarred Witch Doctor, but it would not be the right fit here.

Starting cash would be 8000g. If you have an item above 3000g in worth, I would prefer it to have special significance to your character. (how you received it, or whatever...)

Sunny - gunslinger is highly unlikely, but an unconventional character will be considered.

Ridge - If you don't see it as a problem yourself, I don't.
I think with my ratio of things I keep as written to what I change, having some experience with the AP will help push things forward without it getting old.


I have a statblock sitting around for a 5th-level transmuter, a real frail, bookish type who wants to use magic to attain physical perfection. I'll drop him to 4th, find him some gear, and put him up here.


How high Intelligence a character are you looking for? I have a concept for a fighter whose could be built to have a 16 to 20 Int at fourth level.


DM, I've got a bit of a different take on a wizard I played in a game that died. He's a dwarven transmuter who likes using his battle axe as much as his spells, almost. The game made it to 4th level as well.

If accepted, I'll change his hit points and everything else to fall in line with your requirements.

Second level HP 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Third level HP 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Fourth level HP 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks for the consideration!


It is unlikely I will take a PC who is not a wizard, alchemist, or witch.

High Int is a close second in importance. We just think there should be a smart person around.

Arcane Utility, and Knowledge skills are a lower priority... both of about equal importance, and neither require super-specialization.

lowest priority... (would see above average benefit in this game)
any arcane crafting, any alchemy, battlefield control without losing all utility

The sorcerer has been doing some party buffing, but I think he is intending to make summoning and fire evocation his thing.

El Ronza:

Sounds good. From what I've seen, your playstyle and writing would fit well in the group.

Ghost:
- so therefore, probably not fighter.

Dolgrym:

Yeah. I like him a lot.


DM.

Spoiler:
Yeah, buffing and battlefield control is more or less what Dolgrym does. Toppling spell, Grease, Dazing options with Ear Piercing Scream,etc. I've got a couple evocations mixed in, but nothing that would step on the sorcerers toes too much I don't think. I'd also be open to picking up a crafting feat with the wizard 5th level bonus feat, if the group would like. Just an FYI.

Shadow Lodge

I have a couple of thoughts for a Wizard that could be integrated here. Do you have any particular preference with regards to the Thassilonian Magic Schools? I've been wanting to try out a Human Greed Sin Specialist. I also have a couple of ideas for a fresh character, including reviving a character from another campaign that fizzled at level 3.


The character of 'Sunset' has developed into a written character who was created for the old D20 Iron Kingdom's game setting.

She was created with this music as the inspiration => The heart-break kid

Sadly, there isn't anything 'amazing' behind the actual concept. Just a character who's quick on the draw.

Now...before they errated the 'Titan-mauler' I've been building characters who've been swinging around items like this. => The new shiny (^_^)Yes, it is real

So....not much 'original' with the character concept...Just the attitude. (^_^)

very much cheers to all.

Robert's mother always told him that his father was one of the lost Rogarvian princes. He took this in stride, always believing it to be true. This led him to put on airs with some of the other children, and they were the ones who gave him the mocking nickname "Kingsblood." More often than that, they just called him "Bastard." His only reason to really believe his mother about her claim of his parentage was a book bound in soft, red leather, with the seal of house Rogarvia embossed on the cover. On the inside of the cover was a note penned to Sylvie, his mother, and signed by a man calling himself Surtova. The first few pages were filled with cantrips.

Robert's home life wasn't easy, between the other children's teasing and occasional violence, and his mother's sorry state. The disappearance of her lover had hit her hard, and she had to sell many of the things that he had provided for her to live comfortably. Robert has few memories of his childhood and his father, other than to remember that there was a man who was there sometimes and that they used to live much better than they do. His mother eventually had to turn to any kind of make-work that she could to get by and put food on the table, and Robert determined to study the book and use it to become a powerful wizard so he could bring his father back and they would all live happily.

Unfortunately, Robert's dream was cut short by his mother's death of a nasty chill. With nothing left to tie him to his home, Robert has decided to join the expeditions to the Stolen Lands to try and reclaim some glory for his family, and maybe to find his father again.


Well...I've created a character using Hero-lab. Just tying to work out how to paste a copy onto the boards.

Also..starting moneys? How much shine does a bod be gettin'?

Oops. Forgot a few things.

I do have experience with this AP as a GM. My group managed to destroy their own kingdom mid-level 6. :)


Dolgrym - Gotcha thanks

Sunny :
- I think that is under file > (something like Custom export hero statblock... or something)> export or save to BBC code.
...and please get Icehouse out of my thread ;)

I'd like to see what you come up with. If you aren't going witch, alchemist, or wizard for her, it is unlikely I will be able to use her for this campaign now... though I may bump up to 6 PCs later.

jlighter:

Hi.

>Regarding Greed Sin Specialist:
Funny you should say Greed. This was the post from the PC who is likely to be ruler, which I read just before your post.

from gameplay wrote:

The Green Man is already fighting pretty hard, gripping the reins of his horse so hard he might tear the leather to pieces anytime soon.

The...the bastards...such CASUAL abuse. Ten hours of work after being up all night already?
What kind of greed justifies that?
As he dismounts, The Green Man sticks his hands in the pockets of his clothes, so nobody can see just how tightly clenched his fists are at the moment

The kingdom is NG, and some versatility is preferred...

Therefore, the Sin specialist might not fit with the group. I'm just saying that as a first impression... I don't know if your character idea would address those problems. (and transmutation is a versatile school... so Greed is actually a good choice for the role if you are going to sin specialize)
So.. up to you. I am curious to see it.

-- -- -- -- --

>Regarding Robert Kingsblood:
I really like this. His personality is clear, and looks like a good playable character. I actually think he would fit well with my other Kingmaker PBP... both with role and personality. They are a hex or two away from attacking the Stag Fort.

But for now.. this recruitment, I will put Robert Kingsblood on the list of submissions for my players and myself to vote on.

Notes and things:

Of course, when I built the very first version of this character the errata fro 'Titan Mauler' did NOT distinguish between martial and ranged weapons. SO, going back to that older version Sunset's to hit with the Hack-butt is maybe two points higher. Also, with her crafting skills she should be able to turn the hack butt into a revolver type weapon to get at least five shots out of it before reloading.

So, yeah...basically a Gunslinger who's weapon is THIS BIG

(^_^)


Okeys...Am building an Aasimar (Garuda blooded) "Oradin" (Actually...going to go with the Non-lawful Inquisitor build) Linky to class build details

Basically a healer who can heal at range using the Oracle's 'Life Link' to take some of the damage at range from other characters. Thence the Inquisitor gets a self healing trick or two.

And the Garuda blooded, 'cause....who doesn't like the idea of a friendly angel helping them out. (^_^)

EDIT 1: Another thought is to take 'Alchemist' instead of 'Inquisitor'? That way I can get/make healing potions and such crafted items for adding to the economy and such? Just an idea which I shall have a look into when I have more time/had some sleep. (^_^)

EDIT 2: Actually...if the DM is a bit leery of a flying character in Kingmaker...perhaps changing Sunny into a aquatic Elf (Much like they are familiar with from other games)?


Sunny:

For this recruitment, of what you have posted so far... alchemist is probably the only one I would consider.
Thylacine can't look up, so flying would cheating. 5th level and up, I am OK with flying, but not at 4th.


Ridge Here... I went with an elf witch. I DID give him 'flight' for one of his hexes, but since I see from earlier posts that this might be a possible problem, he doesn't actually fly till level 5, he can levitate though. I could trade it out for another hex entirely if you prefer.

Other than one trait, and rolling for the hitpoints, the profile should be complete in both crunch/mechanics, and background.

I got kind of long winded on the background, sorry about that :o

EDIT: I may have also taken some liberties with the search for a tower in the background, but the KM player's guide suggested that elves might go searching for some old ruins, and between that and the Moon Patron choice, I just rolled with it. Let me know if you want me to nix it


Nedyr:
Looks good
No problem with the Flight Hex.
Flying 5th level and after is expected and fine.

The background is good, and I already have something which fits the name the tower of the Rising Moon.


Alright, I'm not going to be able to put up my character until tomorrow night. I won't complain if you want to wrap up before then, though.


Well here's my old man looking to leave a legacy...

I didn't use the craft wonderous item discount on the purchased gear, figured that'd be best left for in game.

Shadow Lodge

DM Bloodgargler:
Here's that Sin Specialist that you wanted to look at. I don't actually have a backstory for him, just crunch. Sounds like he wouldn't be first choice in any event, but I can hack together a backstory for him. Thanks for the consideration of Robert. Also, I forgot to edit Robert's alignment. I copied the format from another character. Robert is actually Chaotic Good.

Background:
Kravos Val was a man of Chelexian heritage who was born in Absolam the center of the world. Kravos Val was born poor and yet he had a great intellect one that needed to be "sated. His parents died when he was twelve and he soon fell in with with a group of young, eager and reckless aspiring diabolists. Kravos Val was the true oddity in this group calling themselves the "Eyes of Dis", Kravos was not of the rich or middle classes from which most of the "Eyes" hailed from. However he made up for lack of social status with a good intellect and an exceptional sword arm and considering the nature of what the "Eyes of Dis" did that was needed badly. The "Eyes of Dis" were composed of those interested in quick power and dominion, they quickly established themselves as crime lords over four neighborhoods in the poorer districts. They reigned for nearly four years, dragging in a decent income through black market trade, the locals themselves weren't worth taxing as they had barely anything. Then it all fell apart...

As his companion in the "Eyes of Dis" Javi Turnwheel said, "those self-righteous paladins of Iomadae always stick their fat noses into business..." That night they did, they came crashing through the door into the hideout. He didn't know how many of them there were but they were too many for the "Eyes" totaling eight in including himself to fight off. Nonetheless they tried, Karner the infernal priest of Dispator himself was the first to die... after having killed five of the damn temple guards that the paladins had brought with them. Javi was the next to die the plucky warlock died by having a longsword burst through her belly and out of her backside, that drove the normally calm and taciturn Kravos into a rage. The rage was brief but deadly for both him and the enemy, he took multiple slashes to the face although they weren't serious injuries. He had killed six of the temple guards and then he realized that while he had a window of opportunity to escape he had to.

Kravos smashed his way through two more temple guards and escaped out of a broken in wall, he had made it a street away before he saw his pursuer. The paladin shouldn't have been able to sneak up on him in his heavy plate armor but Kravos didn't question why, he only prepared himself to meet the Lord of Dis. This paladin was fairly fresh and Kravos's face was running red with blood and he knew that if he one this it would be by the idiocy of his opponent. Kravos dodged in and out even as he grew exhausted, trying to make the paladin do the one the one thing that could allow Kravos to kill him instantly... They fought for a hectic five minutes of combat and then the paladin made the fatal mistake, he had swung his greatsword to far in an arc to the left. Kravos swung his blade in an arc and decapitated the paladin, the body fell to the ground with a heavy thud and blood spilled out from the man's severed head and body.

Kravos then escaped to the docks and through some favors and threats arranged to get a berth on a ship heading towards Galt. Kravos would then for the next three years work as a mercenary, bounty hunter and occasionally advisor (concerning magical and religious matters) to various minor lords and knights. Now Kravos finds himself escorting a caravan to the Stolen lands, the pay isn't good but he needs to get as far away as he can for as Kravos recently learned the paladin he killed had a father... One who was willing to pay any expense to hunt down his son's "murderer", the paladin's father seems to be closing in with his own band of knights and allies and Kravos needs to get the hell out of dodge fast...

The Iron Ring:
Like every other member of the "Eyes of Dis" Kravos made a bargain with Dispator through an intermediary to gain power. He like the others pledged his soul as collateral for power and now the realization of how close death and damnation is has him on edge. He also bears the symbol of his pact, an Iron Ring enruned with the infernal saying "Dispator sees all". He can never take off the ring and unless he dies it can never be removed from his finger... Kravos's pact gives him the ability to call forth power from the 2nd layer of Hell, Dis itself and his powers tend to manifest in ways that leave no doubt of their origins...

Appearance:
Kravos is six feet tall has a lean but muscular build and his face immediately grabs your attention. His face is covered in scars that look like some form of "hellish" iron which they are. As a side affect of his pact Kravos's wounds heal but turn into scars that are composed of Dis Iron. Besides his noticeable scars an observer will also see intense, focused dark eyes that don't seem natural. Despite his age of twenty two his hair is already graying, although it seems to be becoming the same color of his scars. Kravos also wears the armor, weapon and most noticeably the cloak that he had back in the "Eyes of Dis". His chain shirt is a deep red color with black overtones, his sword is well crafted and bears a graven fiend on the bottom of the sword hilt and his cloak is entirely gray except for the seething eye of fire, molten iron and malice emblazoned upon it. Kravos to most seems an oddity, although those versed in diabolism might recognize him for what he truly is... A Warlock.

Personality:
Kravos is above all else a survivor, he has fought and killed his way through the river kingdoms, Brevoy and Galt. He has faced down knights, nobles, priests, mages and pretty much anything else that could be thrown at him. Kravos is also experienced and has commanded men before although only about ten to twenty at a time. As a commander Kravos does give quarter to those who ask for it, however on the actual battlefield itself he employs whatever method is required to achieve victory. If he has to attack the enemy from behind he will, if he has to call upon the support of undead he will do so. Kravos is no saint and he would be the first to admit it but he does generally keep to the letter of his word... Although is he learns of treachery from an employer or ally he won't hesitate to do a preemptive strike. There is one species of being that Kravos hates above all others, the followers of Iomadae. These are foes that Kravos would show no mercy towards, the memories of seeing his former friends and cohorts die at Iomadaen hands is never going to fade away...

GM your review?


Thanks, I have always wanted an excuse to make an old wisened character and this was the perfect chance. (and lucky for me at higher levels there's always the age resistance spells =)

Biggest thing was to provide alot to the group and act as the enabler, both with skills and spells. And on a flip side, can handle traps as well since I see the current probably is less likely to be able to do such things. (trapspringers gloves are high on priority for this guy)


Yeah, mine should be up in about 24 hours. Though I see a few transmuters here already... :p


There are a lot of good concepts here, but then, Kingmaker campaigns seem to bring out stiff competition period :)


Viluki:

The character looks good, and would work just fine.

This is the list I believe.

Senex Senis
Nedyr
Dolgrym Sharpaxe
Robert "Kingsblood"
Viluki

Sunny
El Ronza
Xzylvador

I will give you at least until Friday to finish up.


Feel free to remove me from the list.
Thanks for running a game and considering me, but I think at the moment it's best I start at 1st level.


Okie doke, thanks for checkin in to say so... and I agree.
We are just starting the second book.. so those who have played it before, or were in a group which ended prematurely would be best.

Pale for a Taldan, and with a name more grand than his appearance, Francesco is a thin and reedy
man, frail and bookish even by a wizard's standards. Standing just over six feet tall, with straight black
hair pulled messily off his face, wearing faded robes patched in several places, he nonetheless carries a
cunning intellect in his pale blue eyes - an intellect that has served him well in his studies of the universe,
its rules, and the art of bending them.
Born in Restov, Francesco discovered his talent for wizardry at a young age, poring over dusty tomes his
father had collected from his own adventuring days. Taking it upon himself to tutor the boy, Francesco's
father schooled him in the arts of magic, teaching him his first cantrips, and finally sending the boy on his
way, armed with the knowledge he'd need to survive. His only wish was that his son be an adventurer,
like he himself had been.
However, the young Francesco soon found himself a liability. He joined various adventurers - small-time
groups - and spent a few years sneaking into bandit camps, defeating bandits, taking treasure from
bandits - small jobs that, while lucrative, weren't exactly thrilling. And the more he travelled, the more self aware
Francesco became of his own physical weakness - his meager strength, his perpetually dry lips,
the hacking cough that came and went, seemingly without reason. His body was weak, and physical
weakness could only lead to mental weakness...
It was this revelation that led Francesco to the study of Transmutation magic. Hopefully, by mastering this
art, he can overcome the weaknesses of his physical form. And with this newfound determination,
Francesco packed his bags and set out for a fledgling kingdom, a new place to hone his magical skills
and attain greater power...

Blargh I suck at backstories.
