GM ShadowLord's Rise of the Runelords Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master GM ShadowLord

Have anything in mind?

Intriguing game idea, not sure what spheres of power is though or where to find it.

I might be interested in a joint venture Grace and Yavenee. Don't know if I'm that interested in this one though.

Would Path of War be allowed?

An interesting idea if all three of us did something would be a trio of witches and call them the Strange Sisters. Make a play on the witches from McBeth/Gargoyles.

That's an intriguing idea.

Not entirely sure I'd want to try it with a whole new magic system though.

You could play a Witchguard Ranger if you wanted to try a more martial type?

Wouldn't fit the Weird Sisters at all. They'd have to be witches, probably each specializing in a different area, one healer, one debuffer, one bugger and all with some offensive magic.

Yeah Spheres of Power is interesting but lower in power than Vancian casting.

There's a Triple Goddess archetype that's quite witchy in Spheres of Power Expanded Options.

I hear its pretty good.

Then again, I wrote it so...

;)

Three changelings, aware of their nature, raised by a great hero to be better than their heritage...

A fighter.
A scholar.
A healer.

Hmmm, could be interesting.

My will to resists...
is...
failing...

We could each be a different KIND of changeling, too!

GHKKK!

Guess I better read through spheres of power now.

*hangs her head in defeat*

I've got to reload my copy onto the iPad. Its a pretty easy system to work out.

Of course, the problem with linking our concepts is either we all get in or none of us do.

True, but a really good background set up like that makes it a good shot it seems.

Absolutely. Which one of us should be which? Assuming Y's on board.

Not a huge fan of fighter types myself so I'd prefer either healer or scholar.

If we go with the sisters aspect of it too I feel bad for our poor father because he was either had by one hag 3 times or three different hags.

Guess our daddy was a whore.

Assuming we are actual sisters and not just adopted siblings. I'll take the fighter unless Y wants it.

True, adoption would be a good alternate route.

I've been considering playing a pure fighter but if you want it I'm good with the other. He could have been a great hero that went up against a coven and failed. Moms decided to make use of his.....potential

Hmmm...

A coven of hags conspire to bring about a storm which will purge the land of lesser beings, destroying so many the few which remain will have no choice but to bow to their will.

A great hero braves the peril, climbs into the mountains, finds the coven and slays them. As he turns to leave he hears cries...

... and finds three babes, each obviously from a different mother and, yet, seemingly the exact same age. His heart softened, he bundles the babies up and brings them home with him, raising them as his own daughters.

I like.

Yav, if you want to be the fighter I can do the healer.

I like that story1 Now I just need to figure out class/etc. Good thing I have tomorrow off to work on this more.

With so much to look for what would you suggest for the sage concept Grace?

I should not have read this, because I really, really love the idea and it's going ot be hard to be objective when the time comes.

Also, to answer Sunday's Question, no Path of War, sorry.

Also, Grace, where could I find said options? I am very interested.

If this were not a SoP game I would recommend my Fortune-Teller class from Shadows over Vathak. I probably could rework it for sphere magic but I don't know if Ragnhildr wil accept it. I'm fond of the Investigator class as a scholar, too but alchemy is an odd thing in sphere magic.

It's on sale here.

I'll put together a fighter, I'm kind of excited by the idea of making the class everyone whines about awesome.

Going standard three (fighter/wizard/cleric) and making them awesome despite all the whining about how plain they are would be an interesting challenge.

Was kind of thinking going with something magic based. Saw the divination and death spheres and thought maybe combining them into a character might be interesting.

That could be all sorts of awesome. You can do that with the wizard or with the soul mage or hedge witch classes from Spheres.

Decided on the Soul Weaver, I'm thinking this character will turn out very similar to your white necromancer from my brief lived second darkness game.

Okay, no PoW, probably make a barbarian then.

Actually, with you 3 applying and all the others in that thread I don't think I'd have much of a chance so I guess I'll pass.

Alternatively, you could be our "brother", the actual, natural son of the hero? We could app as a four person concept.

Heh, the one tasked to look after us.

Lol, don't know if Ragi would appreciate that though.

:3 Heh, the mellow/lazy hero heir that also is a hero is a trope that's appealed to me.

So going with 2 weapon fighter, Annis hag making me the biggest and toughest of the three.

Hulking is nice. I had a lot of fun playing mine before I stopped posting.

Caster's Champion would probably come in handy.

I'm thinking the daughter of a winter hag as a cleric, serving the goddess of the ice...

Mine is a green widow, she's charming, desirable, and seems not quite right as she talks to ghosts all the time. When it comes to getting answers to questions she will either try to divine them or she will ask the ghosts to "ask around" for her. She has even given her ghosts names.

I figure it's her fault we're on the chopping block, or burn pile, someone thinks she's an evil witch who steals corpses and talks to demons or some such. They're only half right, she does animate the dead sometimes, but she talks to ghosts, not demons.

Inspirational image of mine.

Sounds like we need to do some chargen.

Yup!

I like it! That what you're using for yours Grace?

I think so, yes. I'll try to have stats to share with you guys later today.

What I'm using for a general image. Yeah, she's a ditz and doesn't realize that green isn't the appropriate color for necromancers but dangit! She likes green.

Oh, and we get two traits, what do you both think of making this one we all take since no one seems to ever use family traits.
