I might fit that role, original campaign went dead on us, so now Rasim is free to fill up another spot somewhere.
Need to fill in the remaining points and lvl, adjust his back story a bit, let me know if you want me to.
Simply put, a knife in the dark kinda rogue (knifemaster archetype) that does many things to stay alive, he snekas, spies and translates when he doesn't stick his knife in an opponent.
If you can adjust the background a bit, that will do for now. We can worry about stats later.
Having played around a lot of ideas, I keep coming back to a ranger, and looking at your list and needs, I think a trapper ranger would work well--skill points, trapfinding, combat ability, and a focus on ranged combat, which seems to be in slight need. Of course, if this is a more urban campaign, I may switch over to an urban ranger (same deal, plus spells, but favored communities instead of favored terrains could be rough depending on setting).
I'll draft it up and try and have it ready later today.
An old priest at the orphanage told him at the age of 10 that they were murdered by a beast as black as night. On the full moon night it had torn them up when they returned form their work at the local inn. Only a bloody trail and their ripped-up clothes were found as evidence.
Eventually when the old priest had died, he was thrust onto the streets at age 14. There he learned early on to keep in the shadows is to avoid a beating and survive and to surprise an opponent is to win. the hiding counted double at moonless nights, when wild animals or worse roamed the streets.
Stealing and fighting mainly to stay alive, he got quite good at approaching people from behind and emptying their pockets or ending their lives if it was called for.
One night, when he was 18, he saw the black wolf-like creature himself, tearing at doors and windows, attacking dogs outside. Rasim silently followed him over the rooftops, bent on revenge. At the break of dawn the creature entered the orphanage house where Rasim had grown up. Rasim followed and saw the creature change into its human self again, the head priest that thrust him out onto the streets several years ago.
He grinned as he turned towards Rasim: "So you know my secret. You'll be the next, don't worry."
At that point Rasim threw one of his daggers right at the the priest, killing him as the dagger sank into his throat. Unfortunately someone saw him do that and he is on the run ever since, now knowing that there are probably others like him in the world.
Living a life on the run, Rasim decided things needed to be changed and forgo his old birthname, Rasim Shadowhood, taking on a nickname: The Shaded Blade, a thief for hire, specializing in the (nightly) stalking of suspects.
He used to be a bit of a loner, but he jumped on the opportunity when heard of a retired 'hunter' in a town ahead. Rumours abound that this veteran killed many thing that were not human. Rasim thought of this as a perfect chance to encounter like-minded people, perhaps with experiences like his own.
Hope this background is in order, let me know what you think.
Edit: Also updated his skills, HD etc to match lvl 3, only things not updated is his gear.
I would like to offer up Damien Folley, a tiefling Ranger(trapper):1/Rogue:2
I don't have his character sheet up yet but I do have his background on his profile. It's a little abstract but it fits well in explaining his background. I will have his stats in later, I just wanted to get his basic idea to you before you made a final decision.
He will be a blend of range and melee, with talent in disarming traps and stealth.
If you have any questions let me know, thanks for your consideration.
If there is any chance or possible openings I have a character I would like to submit, my tiefling paladin.
@Niraj: The GM has picked most of the group, he's now just looking for a skill monkey to complete the group. Maybe mix ranger or rogue in with you paladin idea.
Damien's stats are figured out, let me know if I forgot something!
HP rolls:
Thank you both for your submissions, they are both excellent, but I can only take one.
Please could Damien Folley report to the discussion thread.
Thanks for the consideration Wayne.
I'll be checking your game out from time time, inetrested to see how this works out.
