Okay, I've got to ask: what does "dirty magus" mean exactly?
Haha didn't even consider the other implications but I meant physically dirty. Because he is a drunk who often sleeps in the mud.
The idea is that he is an elf who used to the bodyguard to some important elf noble or what have you. Blended spell and sword, married to a priestess, living the Elvish high life. But then a heroic human paladin came along and stole the heart of his wife. He didn't take the divorce well and has been on a very long bender.
I'll get a build worked up.
Sounds an interesting concept. A Magus can be a very potant damage dealer.
You mean Maria stole your wife? XD
Still working on the build and backstory but both are mostly finished and in the profile. Comments and suggestions welcome.
So it just struck me I'll have someone to trade spells with. Huzzah!
Gadren generally focuses on buffs for the party, utility spells and battlefield control for combat (create pit and grease are his most used offensive spells!).
On the plus side I can keep my muscle wizard championship belt. Our new magus might be better with their blade than Gadren is with his longsword but he's still rocking an impressive strength of fourteen... I'm honestly glad it's a dexterity build so I can still consider him the swolest arcane caster in the party.
I have a player with a black blade kensai magus in a Kingmaker game I am running. There's a lot of overlap in feats and stat assignment so I have no doubt you know what you're doing. I expect terrible things from your damage output now!
Ah the joys of trading spell books. Theo will definitely be able to dish out some damage but also has a number of ways to keep the party safe. I can kit his spells for more protection than damage and Bodyguard lets me give adjacent allies a +6 AC bonus with an Attack of Opportunity. That will increase as my Arcane Strike damage bonus increases.

HA! Gotcha. Sounds good.
Hey, if your interested, Outflank might be a handy feat to pick up(I know, I'm totally metagaming here). But of course it's gotta "fit" your character. If he's more of a solo guy then it just wouldn't make any sense.
Gadren casts FIST
In my live game I tried Outflank a few AP's back. Now we always take it. When your rogue and another melee character have it things get very bloody.
I gotta confess, for the life of me, I have NO IDEA what you mean by that, Cedric. At a complete loss. Unless you are talking about that Stallone movie: F.I.S.T. But that's all I got.
@DBH: You know, ultimately I'm not a teamwork feat fan at all but I ABSOLUTELY love Outflank. That feat just flat out rocks.
Looking at Theodluin's sad life story. We can say he arrived far too late for the funeral and has been erratically following the party when not out of his skull.
I'll run Maria until this part is over, there is one more section when Theodluin will join the unimpressed party.
Outflank is a great feat, more than happy to take it. I'd have room at lv 11 to grab it. Or I could drop bodyguard and pick it up now if y'all prefer.
Honestly, between spells and fighting defensively, Bodyguard isn't really necessary for Jack if that's who you had in mind to use it for. Now if you're going to use it for the others then sure, keep it. But not for Jack.
Of course, Jack will not object to benefitting from it, mind you, but it's not critical for him by any stretch.
Sounds good, swapped Combat Reflexes and Bodyguard for Outflank and Intensify spell. Dropped gloves of arcane striking and Benevolent for Headband of Int and more pearls of power.
No time to update tonight I'm sorry.
Nose is running, head is aching and I'm off to bed. No update I'm afraid.
Ugh. Get to feeling better, bud. That's such a lousy feeling.
Get some rest, hope you feel better.
Lol!
Oh man a DC 30 disable device?! Nasty. Here goes nothing I guess. :P
Edit: Hey, for what it's worth, Jack has Trapfinding +1. So I guess technically he did roll a 30. I didn't realize it was a trap we were looking for. So... cool. :)
Man you talk about sweating bullets! And I'm totally talking about *me* by the way. :P
Too busy to update tonight. Have the night off.
Gadren has gone silent again, and Cedric hasn't posted in some time. I've sent out PM's to see who is still with us?
sorry, I've been rather strained for posting time since the start of the year. I thought I had made a post, however it seems to have been eaten.
I'm still here.
I'm still here, for what it's worth.
I have to admit this book has been the weak one of Carrion crown. There's always one book in an AP that lets it down and this one is poorly designed and railroady.
For what it's worth, it really hasn't felt railroady to me. Of course, I don't know anything about this book(or any of them for that matter) so without knowing every detail of the story it's probably a lot more difficult for me to tell.
But I'm also the type of guy who likes to follow a storyline. I don't mind sandboxy type stuff, mind you, because that can also be fun, but a little nudge here or there will get no complaints from me. :)
Here I am! (Rock you like a hurricane)
Lol! Oh man that's a good one. (Great, now that song is stuck in my head. I'm glad that song rocks). :)
Sorry. To busy to update tonight.
Okay, Lazar and Theodluin, you cats around? Mic check, mic check. Check, check, check. :)
Hey, don't hit the mic like that!
Would you rather I closed this game and started a closed recruitment thread for you to talk things over?
You know, I think that'll work. Yeah, let's do that. Sounds good.
closed the game?
closed the game?
Yes, it was down to two active players in the middle of a dungeon. The AP wasn't working for me.
I will officially close it at midnight. GMT +12.
