:Sheoll is 5'10" with deep black hair of uneven lengths and golden eyes. His pale skin is covered in scars, principally around his mouth and hands, and were it not for his intimidating presence, many would consider him attractive. He has a wiry build, all taut muscle and his voice is deep and resonant, with an otherworldly quality. He moves like a hunter, an affectation from his years with a nomadic tribe, but much prefers direct confrontation to subterfuge. Anyone watching him for an extended period will notice slight ticks, and him whispering to someone who is not there...
Background: Sheoll's life had been one marked by fits and starts. His father, Aharim, had been on a mission from his homeland in Osirion to bring the word of Desna to the "heathen" in the northern lands. His group had traveled all around Golarion, preaching the word of the Starsong and of the fortune and wanderlust that was her credo.
One fateful night, his group of priests was set upon by a small tribe of trolls, Lamashites all of them, and they tore into the faithful with a great fervor. As the Fates allowed, a rival group of Kelids, barbarians all, had been tracking the trolls as they moved. The two groups were mortal enemies, and Sheoll's mother, Ishira, was a Berserk and great fighter among them. The barbarians came upon the trolls and seeing them distracted by their hunger for the "helpless" priests, they charged in. Ishira immediately saw the fire that burned within Aharim, as she and her people also worshiped Desna, but in a more elemental form; the pure white fire of the North Star. The two stood side by side, and as their enemies fell, their passion grew. With the battle over, and the wounded tended, they fell into each other's arms. They traveled for some time together, and Aharim convinced Ishira's people to return with him to Osirion. Their love was bright like a star, but unfortunately, with the fire of battle out, the flame did not last. Not long after they reached Osiron, the two parted, though as friends. Many of Ishira's people stayed in Osirion to train in the church of Desna, but feeling wanderlust, she moved on.
It was in the wildlands that Sheoll was born and under a sun that shone black. The holy men of the tribe new this to be an omen, however their sights were blurred and they could not say whether for good or ill.
For the first ten years of his life, the boy did not speak a single word, but one night Sheoll spoke in tongues, a mishmash of languages from above and below. He was set upon by the others, and though he took many a beating, his mother only stepped in when his life was in danger, such was their way. Fires must be kindled. The boy grew in strength and confidence, not brought down by his hard life, and he could feel a darkness, a wildness deep within that he worked hard to tame.
Time went on, and Sheoll aged very slowly, gathering scars, but not the ravages of time - the wrinkles and stiff joints that came to others. On the morning of his mother's death, he left the tribe, following her spirit as it crossed into the sky. Travelling across Golarion for a few more years, he was eager to learn about the world around him, and even more eager to learn about himself.
Hopefully I can play with you guys, I think this AP will be fun, and I really like the idea for this character.
Are we rerolling 7s? I thought it was rerolling less than 7. Lemme take care of that and if it turns out we were wrong, I'll take up the 7 again.
... clearly I need to atone for something.
So if I'm going skald instead of swashbuckler now, I'll set up my pre-racial scores like:
STR: 17
DEX: 11
CON: 14
INT: 10
WIS: 8
CHA: 16
With the previous scores coming from this post. If I'm not eligible for a reroll, I'll just stick the 7 in Int and put the 10 in Dex. Gonna work on a sheet shortly.
I was just basing that on the post from DM Corerue (and Ace Mathews as the first app/roller),it said one re-roll was allowed.
Ah, alright then. Looks like I'm sticking with the 7.
Ace, Remember that our classes are completely DEX based, so the Skald would be kinda useless. We don't get significant bonuses from your raging song and we'd have to pass on it to use some of our abilities properly. And Shrodinger, Remember that we're probably gonna be looking for a support, and we were only supposed to reroll 4d6 stats below seven.
Flynn here should have his crunch up today! The three of us are gonna talk about a backstory once we read the Player's guide.
Mostly I was planning on just doing it for the rage power sharing, but I guess I can dump a bard's Int to 7 and still be useful to the party.
Copying and pasting from the first thread for your convenience. I... guess I don't have much else to say, really. XD

When she was younger, Harumi found herself fascinated with the technological might of Numeria. She'd never been able to experience more than a few fragments of the powers it possessed, but that certainly didn't stop her from focusing on them. Well, there are plenty of people who are happy to take advantage of any opportunity - and the girl was lured out with the promise of information on strange alien beings and the wonders of their technology. Even in Numeria, Aasimar are relatively rare, and a certain individual wanted to see what effects technology would have on beings who were a little less than mundane. Fortunately or unfortunately, he never got the chance - Harumi had finally realized that something was going badly wrong, and without thought or reason, she cursed the gods.
They didn't take that too well - it was her own fault for not paying attention. Still, the gods of good are nothing if not willing to give people another chance... and that's particularly true of Korada, who promptly cursed Harumi. Right in front of her captors, divine power surged into the girl, starting with the transformation of her left eye into the face of a clock. The terrified girl broke free, and every time she passed by a guard, time seemed to waver in front of her eyes, showing her the different options she could take. Without hesitation, she plunged into the most advantageous route and escaped, her very touch proving enough to destroy the last lock that barred her way.
A lone girl, far from home, pursued by apparent slavers... not a good situation. All the girl could do was rely on her strangely altered sight and attempt to escape as best she could - a newfound ability to call up mists and terrify others helped even more, as did the fact that she didn't need food as long as she could find sunlight. Water flowed almost endlessly from her hands, providing enough to drink, and that was enough to help her survive. After much longer than she really wanted to think about, Harumi finally managed to stagger into a settlement, where she's resided ever since. However, she doesn't want to stay there forever... and it could very well be time to move on.
Rednal, how much of a support do you plan to play that oracle? I could switch classes depending.
Fairly supportive, I'd say - battlefield control, messing with the enemy's actions, some buffs, et cetera. Party Face if nobody's got a better score. Little bit of offense thrown in just to help out - and being completely brutal against objects and constructs. XD Aging Touch is actually quite impressive if you use the FCB to buff it up.
I have been considering starting an Iron Gods AP on pbp.
I tend to go high fantasy/high power.
Allowed materials are as followed: any Paizo Product currently printed and any SGG material is fine. I may allow additional books so long as I have them.
So rolling will be as followed:
For each attribute, roll 4d6, dropping the lowest die. If you rolled less than a 7, re-roll, i.e., 7 is the minimum allowed attribute score. In addition, roll 7 attribute scores and drop the lowest. Assign attribute scores as you will...
Was just going by this, but if that's not what was intended, I do indeed need to make a change. However, It sounds like you're not interested in the character anyway.
I'm not necessarily interested in the class, but I could play a character in any number of ways. Regardless, my reroll seemed to net the same result. I've got my stats, just curious on what seems most fun and then how to arrange them...
Also, please be patient, I'm a little blind sometimes.
Oh cool I didn't catch that Shrodinger, Thanks! I dunno what I was thinkin about the reroll, but I did miss the part about changing up the order. In that case, My stats will actually look like:
STR 12
DEX 20
CON 15
INT 17
WIS 10
CHA 18
Ima try to get Fidget and Freddie to come over after class today, they can be as elusive IRL as in game sometimes
Did I miss how much Gold we're allowed?
Max starting gold per your class.
Drawbacks are allowed for an extra trait but they will be used against you as well.
You've been warned. ;)
On stats it was roll 7 times and drop the lowest of the seven rolls.
The absolute minimum stat allowed was 7 if you got less then that then reroll that roll only.
Epic rules were for every 1d3+15 rolled you had to roll 1d10+6 as well so at most you could do both three times and your last (7th) roll would be a 4d6 roll.
If you end up with a 7 that was the risk taken to get a 16-18. A rough trade off but you had the possibility of getting anything from 7-16 as well. :)
Alright, I didn't do a 7th 4d6 roll, in that case. Sorry for the confusion, should I do that now?
Remember free Story Feat as well. You dont have to take it but thats your choice.
Story feats tended to be too situational so I decided it was better as a freebie.
Also you get a rank in a profession of your choosing per lvl.
Another skill that was too situational for my tastes. You can have more then one profession but you only get one skill point to place per level. Choose wisely.
Will check back later~
@aceDiamond: Yes please :D and np. I do things way different then most Of Dms. So confusion does happen lol. :)
Sounds good, thanks!
==> 16
This is much better. I'm just not sure what to play with the group setup. Would you guys see some use out of a Brown-Fur Transmuter or are there not enough transmutation spells that buff dexterity?
Also, for story feat, I think I'd like Artifact Hunter if that's okay. If it's too much to go looking for things that powerful, I'll take Unforgotten.
Here's a preview for my arcanist concept. Still need to pick spells and traits, but does it otherwise seem reasonable?
Not bad, still new with Arcanists however this group will be woefully lacking in healing. Potions and wands can make up for some but not all of it. Will review the other two applications while I wait for the industrious ratfolk to gather~ ;)
Well, Oracles naturally know healing spells, so at least there's that. XD Though, yeah, wands of CLW will probably be the way to go as soon as we can get our hands on them.
Yeah, once I realized how good oracles are at healing, I decided to go down the buffing route. Brown-furs take a while to get the decent toys for everyone, but at 9th level, I can give out Beast Shape II to anybody. At 12th, I'll be able to share Form of the Dragon I and Fluid Form.
Plus I'll have the potential to increase ability score buffs. If I can swing the resovoir points and spell slots, I can throw out +6 enhancement bonuses with bear's endurance and cat's grace.
As high as our stats are, a four person without a dedicated healer could present a cool challenge :)
Speaking of challenge, My "kin" are proving tough to get ahold of, and one is my roommate for cryin out loud.
Speaking of challenge, My "kin" are proving tough to get ahold of, and one is my roommate for cryin out loud.
I know what you mean, my roommates always seemed too busy and elusive when I needed em.
May increase the party to 5 only to cover a mage and healer slot.
Party So Far
Flynn the Mouser (Swashbuckler)
Freddie the Knifemaster (Rogue)
Fidget the Gulch Gunner (Gunslinger)
A four person no healer party would prove a challenge. Lol
From what I am reading, Numeria really does pose a hefty challenge as it has dangers most other places do not~
I think my sheet is ready, now. Unless anyone has anything they want to see as a spell in my book.
Hang on, I accidentally destroyed it. Lemme try again.
Edit: Fixed. Should be ready now, sans fluff and reference pic.
I like the idea of a minor healer four, but whatever you think is still scary! With these stats, we'll be able to take one heck of a beating on mid levels before we really need one, but eh.
Finally have both the guys here, we'll see if we can chat some
1d3 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
1d3 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
1d10 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
1d3 + 15 ⇒ (2) + 15 = 17
1d10 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
1d10 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
So after Racial mods it is

DEX 19
CON 16
INT 18
WIS 11
CHA 13
10 dropped
for my point in profession can I be a professional thief or cutpurse?
Sleight of hand covers the pickpocket check. You could choose a profession to act as your front so you appear more legitimate. Well for a ratfolk . ;)
However I dont see why you couldn't so up to you. I dont mind~ :)
More legitimate? Are we basically going into this as the Ratfolk mafia?
Ooooh, this is gonna be a good campaign. I can feel it.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
The ratfolk mafia going up against the most advanced machines in the world...
I suddenly feel like lobbying for giant technological mousetraps.
I'm going to go with profession Artisan
we were thinking about having a gambit Where I Set up as a street performer or merchant, Freddie slips around looting the crowd, and Fidget plays lookout.
"Ew! Some one polished my belt buckle! Now its all......shiney! Blegh! Are we ready for the adventure yet Flynn? I can't stand one more moment of this "Fresh air" they have up here.

I was going to take my profession as cook, but now I'm thinking engineer would fit better. Someone needs to be the nerd brains of this operation.
Profession scrapper if you please
"Relax Fidg, you get used to it. And I wouldn't call anything near you 'fresh' anyway. Freddie! Where'd ya go buddy?"
-Posted with Wayfinder
That gambit would work. :)
Now that I think about cutpurse or theif would work as a profession but makes was less when profession is rolled instead of sleight of hand hehe.
Currently flying back to work will post later tomorrow evening.
I work in a remote oil field so it may take some Tim for me to get settled. Takes roughly 4 hours to get to work. Two flights and then I work 14 hours.
Just fyi.
Tomorrow I will make my selection(s).
Thanks!
I have the crunch mostly done, I'm not super good with back story fluff but I love the acting fluff, so I may let fidget develope his own backstory and drawbacks as the adventure progresses, but obviously he has certain.....interesting..... Tastes in hygiene.... Also animals don't like him to much since I went with the "unnatural" racial trait
Looks like another player stepped in for the other IG game I applied to (with Harumi!), so I think I'll withdraw here. ^^ Enjoy the game, all!
Aww :(
Well Have fun! Thanks for applying~
So that Leaves Ace Diamond and Shrodingerscat~
Reviewing characters will be decided in the morning. The flying to work was brutal as weather in alaska is changing and it was a rough ride. Will be ready to start after selection. Apologies for the delay~
Interested to see how this goes. :)
Acediamond Your in, please ready your character and dot the discussion thread and gameplay thread.
Shordingerscat, I will keep you in mind if anyone drops. Thanks for applying and hope to see you again. I may be needing players in my other games soon and I will hit you up first if it happens. :)
The rest of you mooks! Get your characters ready. First post is in 3 hours. It will be mostly setting fluff but I hope your ready in next few days. If issues come up please let me know and I can DMNPC you as best I can.
Well, happy gaming to you guys.
Thanks for posting and will keep you in mind bud! :D

Characters will be lvl 1, first book in Iron Gods setting.
I would prefer just character background (keep it simple if you wish~) and what class you are taking.
