Diremerc's Ruins of the Azlant (Inactive)

Game Master DireMerc

Unfortunately, Frank was a bit awkward, finding it hard to make friends. So he would spend most of his time creating chemical compounds or tinkering with his gadgets, most which did not work but every now and then he would create something fun. His classmates would call him Gizmo, and the moniker stuck.

Gizmo was also quite the history buff, with ancient Azlanti being a particular interest. Still, when he heard they were recruiting people to start a new life as a colonist, he balked at the idea. "Why would I ever leave the comforts of home?"

One fateful day, a man approached him to help with a "project". The money seemed good, and he was board, and most importantly, the man seemed quite friendly, and Gizmo always wanted friends. Sadly, it turned out this man was using the scholar to create methods for smuggling in illegal substances, and then he wanted Gizmo to start creating poisons and other dangerous compounds for his criminal organization. Once Gizmo found out, he wanted no more part of it, but he was in too deep to easily get out. So instead, he enacted a plan to destroy all of his work, and put a significant dent in the organizations business.

Realizing he had not thought through to the end, he suddenly needed to disappear, and quick! Now, the prospect of moving away to a deserted colony became quite attractive, and he immediately signed up for the next transport. Luckily, the Bountiful Venture Company saw a use for his engineering and survival skills, and were happy to have him.

TRAITS
Azlanti Scholar: You are familiar with an aspect of Azlanti lore. Maybe you first became enamored with this ancient culture after stumbling across a copy of the first volume of the Pathfinder Chronicles or after learning about Azlant in a university or another type of formal education. Perhaps your parents or guardians were scholars and you’ve grown up hearing about and reading about the ancient Azlanti. For years you dreamed about visiting the continent’s ruins and returning with a discovery that could propel your career. Due to this scholarly bent, the Bountiful Venture Company selected you to join the colony at Talmandor’s Bounty.
You gain a +1 trait bonus on Knowledge (history), Knowledge (local), and Use Magic Device checks, and one of these skills is a class skill for you. In addition, you gain Azlanti as a bonus language.

Pragmatic Activator: While some figure out how to use magical devices with stubborn resolve, your approach is more pragmatic.
Benefit: You may use your Intelligence modifier when making Use Magic Device checks instead of your Charisma modifier.
