That really was beautifully written. Considering we've applied as the same character class, I'm suddenly much less confident in my chances of being picked.
Don't think that! Besides, kineticist builds run the gamut. They also have the unique capability of actually using their powers in consort making multiple kineticists much less of a drawback.
:-)
But thank you for the compliment, too!
Current list of applicants:
- Donnen Phelps - Male Half-Elf Synthesist Summoner by adsapiens
- Aisling Frost-Wing - Female Human Lore-Warden Fighter by Archae
- Agana Besken (sheet) - Female Human Blood Kineticist by Newbonomicon
- Phillip Gastone - Male Human Fighter by Andrea1
- Ren Cooper - Male Human Cad Fighter by ReckNBall
- Venthrus the Slums Shaman - Male Human Shaman by DarkestHeart
- Ambrose Wythinghall - Male Human Fractured Mind Spiritualist by Simeon
- Leera Atmos - Female Dhampir Chaokineticist by pinvendor
Did I miss anyone?
Oh, no. I've just discovered the catastrophic data loss happening on Myth-weavers. It seems my character sheet was reverted to an earlier version, and will have to be fixed.
But, considering that a large chunk of the other characters I'm currently playing as have been completely deleted, I suppose I was lucky that this one just lost a level.

The caster level for these effects is equal to the gnome's level. The DC for these spells is equal to 10 + the spell's level + the gnome's Charisma modifier.
Hatred: Gnomes receive a +1 bonus on attack rolls against humanoid creatures of the reptilian and goblinoid subtypes because of their special training against these hated foes.

* Bloodline Arcana: Whenever you cast a spell that kills one or more living creatures with an Intelligence score of 3 or higher, the caster level of any spell you cast in the next round increases by +1 for each creature your first spell killed. This ability does not stack with other effects that increase your effective caster level, and you cannot gain a bonus greater than 1/2 your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). The second spell you cast must be of an equal or lower level than the first one.
* Wasting Ray: At 1st level, as a standard action, you can impose either starvation or thirst upon a living creature you can see within 30 feet. This requires the creature to make a Constitution check each round (DC 10 + 1 for each previous check) to avoid taking 1d6 points of nonlethal damage. The creature must continue to make these checks until, as a full-round action, it quenches its thirst or sates its hunger (see starvation and thirst). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier, but can only apply it once every 24 hours to any given creature. Creatures that do not need to eat are immune to this effect.

”Well my uncle Screwtape showed up a few weeks ago. He comes to visit me every now and then, but Mommy and Daddy can never see him. Or they say that, anyway. I think they were lying. Normally Uncle Screwtape and me have lots of fun together, but this time he showed up all frowny faced.” Fezont screws up his face in confusion. ”I didn’t understand a lot of what he was saying, but he made me sign a piece of paper. And then I had all these cool powers!” His face darkens. ”Mommy and Daddy didn’t like that. They locked me in my room! They were gonna send me away! I got so thirsty while I was in there… I think they were trying to kill me!” The young gnome starts crying. Through his tears, he says, ”Then Uncle Screwtape came back. He showed me how I could make Mommy and Daddy feel the same way. I just wanted to teach them a lesson. I didn’t think…..“ He trails off, whimpering.
2. What is your greatest fear?
Fezont goes quiet and his eyes dart around the room before speaking in a whisper. ”I’m afraid of Uncle Screwtape. He used to be so nice and fun. But now…” He shudders violently. ”I don’t… I don’t wanna talk about this anymore.”
3. What is your greatest wish? I ask merely so that I can ensure that it doesn't accidentally get granted during the game.
”I just… I just wanna see my parents again. Tell them I’m sorry.”
4. Who is your least favorite scholar and why is it Professor Togren?
”I had hoped Professor Togren wouldn’t believe me about Uncle Screwtape. I hoped he’d tell me none of it happened, that it was all a bad dream. But when I told him what happened with my parents…”Fezont sniffles and gets quiet. ”He just… smiled. He seemed excited. He wouldn’t tell me why.”
5. An untimely computer crash caused me to lose my original post and I've forgotten the fifth question. Instead I'd like you to ask me a question about myself - it can be absolutely any sort of question as long as it hasn't been asked.
I've got the character sheet back to almost how it was before. Everything should be in order now!

@Ren Cooper: Wow, thanks. Admittedly it was your own in-character responses that inspired the format. I appreciate your compliment.
Allow me to riff off of you as well as come about full circle with the best of intentions then. Revised Ren Cooper's Q&A to reflect a similar interaction with the same caseworker. Some would say she should seek new employment but apparently the position was made with her in mind. I could see a dozen counseling sessions run through her, like a temp agency, plausible deniability with a facade of compassion. Apparently Prof Torgren graduates his charges on a regular basis to conquer the world as they never seem to return.
Plus it fleshed out how Prof Torgren is blackmailing Ren. So it works.
Lol, she's certainly a tad more sadistic this round. But if Ren's a delinquent, that attitude and tolerance of such harsh punishment would fit the 'era' and mindset assuming it's the Borderland Provinces equivalent of USoE.
By the by, I think HeroLab may have cut off the background you wrote a little bit. I'm assuming you output from there since their copyright info appears at the bottom of your profile. I mention it since I'm curious what I'm not getting to read. :)
in the original post you said small was optional, that might be the reason. either that or the recent mythweavers data loss messed everything up. either way i'll check it and report back sometime tonight or tommorrow morn
Interesting, it would seem HeroLab doesn't output the drawbacks.
I selected Anxious as Leera Atmos' drawback which may also provide some insight as to why Leera spoke so softly in the Q&A RP I wrote.
Oh, shoot. I had it written down and forgot to type it up. I wanted to take Naturally Gifted for a trait.
me nah, i'll still check the stats i've been meaning to anyway as a double check
So after checking the sheet is messed up. Reverted to a prior version . The scores on the profile are correct, but the will take a day to fix. Nothing to hard though human lore warden finesse based fighter
I am toying with the drawback of Paranioa for Carbendum Lobber. Both fit nicely with Ren's outlook and adaptablness.
Oh, whoops! I had, in fact, forgotten to apply the str/dex adjustments. It's fixed now.
So does anyone know what happened to mythweavers? i have never used them myself but I keep hearing all over the site about how mythweavers has crashed and everyone lost their data. Anyone know?
it was screw up on one of the runners parts, basically the sight lets you save your sheets. those saves were lost, most of them anyway.
thats the gist of it anyway
Yeah, they had to roll back a year's worth of data, which means basically everything is lost.
It was, everything should be fine with my sheet now.
I was among the ones affected by the Mythweavers crash, so I have no crunch. However, I would like to submit Tikleurious Renz Aka Tikkle. Certainly his chipper demeanor is ill fit for such a horrid story, but how much more fitting could it be than to dampen the brightest mood? He is a Human Swashbuckler, primarily Charismatic, and secondarily dextrous. (Sorry if you see the profile before I change that. Old character living on in spirit)
How did your parents die?
I happened to be away, testing my acrobatics in a ruined building. It was a nice day, despite the dismal weather. Then my younger sibling found me, with a well dressed yet mousy looking man in tow... (I hope for another player to be my sibling, sharing their parents' demise)
What is your greatest fear?
My greatest fear is an existential one. A term that here means that for lack of knowledge of the world, only my own limits seem to be what restrict or endanger me.
What is your greatest wish?
Tikkle has a simple dream. Standing atop a platform amidst a sea of adoring fans, witnesses to his Magnum Opus of daring feats.
Who is your least favorite scholar and why is it Professor Togren?
"Bah! He's such a bore! He smells funny, moves terribly slow, and hates cats! Whoever could really hate cats!?"
I have not screened the other posts to be sure my question hasn't been asked, BUT...
Which is worse? A torment with no means of escape, or a torment with the eternal hope of one day being free?
dang, well take your time. fevers are no joke...they suck... i also recently got over a cold myself.
Here's hoping you have a speedy recovery, DM Pain!
"Oh, so you chose me to suffer and be miserable? Oh I guess HERE is where I thank you?"
"... I hope you know I pray for your death regularly Professor!"
