Diremerc's Iron Gods Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master DireMerc

Submit a character here if you would be interested in doing the Iron gods campaign.

I will be making a few changes to the story turning it more into a robot uprising scenario but it will be around 80-90% as written in the AP

Kurgu of the Kellid would challenge these strange metal creatures.

Mechanics will be Invulnerable Rager Barbarian and Unbreakable fighter.

This is Decimus Observet's initial submission, will fill out profile.

build rules?

* Stats Generation? -20 point buy
* HP after first level? -roll it and re-roll 1's
* Races allowed? -I'm ok with 90% of races I will let you know I have a problem with that you picked
* Classes and archetypes allowed? -no restrictions there
* Traits and Drawbacks? -2 traits no drawbacks
* Starting Gold? -normal starting gold
* Background Skills? nope
* Young Characters? nope
* Ability scores adjustments by age categories? -yes but I do not stack them so bonuses and penalties would be.
-1 physical abilities, +1 mental abilities at middle age
-3 physical abilities, +2 mental abilities at old age
-6 phys +3 mental at venerable
* Templates? -maybe ask me about the template and I will let you know
* any 3rd party stuff allowed? -ask me and I will decided depending on what it is
* any house rules?
-Casting: When casting a spell defensibly if you fail your concentration check you do not automatically lose the spell, rather you provoke an attack as you normally would for not casting defensive. If you are hit you must make a concentration check dc 10+damage taken if you fail this check you lose the spell if you succeed the check the spell completes normally.

any other questions?

just a minor one, are we using campaign traits

ill be submitting Illya Nym, the concept of her character is that she is an artificially created humanoid. Her build is basically she's a spell sword type, evocation magic and sword.

You can if you want to. I am not familiar with the campaign traits for this adventure but I can likely find them. I would expect you to work it into your background however.

gotcha chief, hopefully this gets more interest

I would be very interested! Give me until Monday please and I will post a cleric build as well as a background for you to review! Thanks

This character was submitted for another game that has since been archived. The general concept was "Lawbringer", but specifically looking for clearance on the "Grey Paladin" part of the idea.

Pending that okay, I'll alter the character to suit.

Ok so that's 4 and a potential 5th PM-ed me.

Going with a Aasimar (Peri-Blooded) Shaman of Flame. as said prior i'm building to be a blaster melee character.

I will need to go through & see what trimming this character needs besides the Drawback/traits. I played him in one Iron Gods PbP that didn't get much farther than the first scene.

Oki. I work on my character tomorrow, while sit through boring meetings.

Think I be coming in with a strix ninja. I will come up with a short background today. Where we starting?

Also would you entertain the Pathfinder 2 beta testing?

You will be starting in the town of Torch were the flame has gone out and people are quite nervous about it.

Since I don't have an overwhelming amount of players here selection s easier. Everyone who posted already can just make a character and we will begin when you are all ready.

While searching on Strix race, I came across Strix being referred to in archetype Oozemorph of the Shifter, so decided to read up on Shifter (normal, or archetypes: elemental shifter or rageshaper), and would like to give the class a go. I think shifter could fill the intended role I envisaged for my character using unchained rogue.

I take characters starting at level 1.

Is the shifter class allowed? If so, which archetypes are allowed?

Cheers DireMerc.

Sure go for it DarkOne

when your character is done make a post in ooc discussion to let me know.

Excellent! :)

I start working on background, then do build.

Is there anyone else who wanted to join? Or someone who hasn't made their character yet?

Would be interested, especially if the Spheres of Might/Power 3PP systems from Drop Dead Studios are available? I am currently DMing this AP but can separate in- and out-of-character knowledge if it doesn't bother you.

See Discussion thread and Gameplay thread to see what characters are already in game.

@Aipaca:

From my understanding, all characters need to use the Spheres rules or none. So they're unlikely to be introduced into an existing game.

@Kurgu: That's really not the case, mixing Spheres and non-Spheres is perfectly acceptable. The vast majority of Spheres stuff sits around the tier 3 (with some pushing to tier 2) level, if you subscribe to that kind of thing.

@Aipaca: Hmmm. That is interesting.

Hey all if there is still an opening id be up for joining in. Looks like you guys could use a cleric, right?

Made an Iron Priest cleric if you guys need one. He is an expert with technology (has technologist feat along with lots of skills) who can heal both people and constructs. Plan is to have him eventually specialize in making technology items and/or constructs. Don't have his backstory finished yet, should have it ready tomorrow.

Got the background finished as well

sounds good go post in gameplay to introduce yourself

@DireMerc Did you have a response regarding my having knowledge of the AP and the use of Spheres?

Thanks

I personally would rather not using the spheres or having someone with inside knowledge in the group.

Fair enough, thanks for getting back to me I'll sit this one out.

@DireMerc: are you still open? Can I bring something? :)

I max my groups at six members and it looks like I have six at the moment. If someone drops out I will make a post here to let people know there is an opening.

I have an opening if someone wants to join

What role you need? and how long do I have to submit a char?

I too would be interested!

Hmm we have a barbarian, a paladin(holy gun), Investigator, a cleric and a druid(shifter)...Arcane caster would be a good pick but not a restriction.

no time limit but sooner be better.

Dot. How will the character be introduced?

How about an archaeologist bard?

At this stage you would be a surviving member of one of the earlier expedition taken prisoner by the skulks.

We are still very early in the adventure (currently in the second encounter of the game)

@Barton already have an investigator which is basically the same thing.

Only looking for 1 more maybe can squeeze in a second we will see. I'd like to have a character selected before the end of the current conflict which should be done by tomorrow or the day after depending on posting.

Submitting this sorcerer. Will need to change his backstory and personality a bit.

Character should be done.

Looks good so far your selected by default but there is still time for a few more submissions.

I will have to bow out of this one. The posting rate dissuades me from wanting to join this game.

If you are still recruiting I have two characters made for Iron Gods. This one.

And this one.
