In The Forests of the Night (Inactive)

It has been 200 years since the Great War ravaged the land of Airdwyn. And in the spirit of unity King Darren of Kel Fair is holding a grand celebration to continue the peace among kingdoms. However, there is something moving in the dark. Something that threatens the very core of the fragile connections already in place, and it's growing....

Ah yes. Nevermind then.


I'm not saying you shouldn't apply, I was just wondering. If you are going to apply, you might want to get in quick!


Sorry for the delay everyone... I woke up sicker than a dog. Hopefully I'll feel better by tomorrow. I hope this doesn't ruin anyone's plans.

Feel free to keep RPing it up. I like what I've read so far... mmm going back to bed... good night...

Not a problem for me. I sort of missed the first big flood of RP, so it lets me get in a few tags.


wop wop wopp :(

OKAY WHO PUT A HEX ON THE GM?


<_<

>_>

What you think just because I'm a witch I hex people? THAT is discrimination good sir!


Damn cops, always profilin'!!!


FIGHT THE POWER!!!!

*changes alignment to CG*

Just want to say I'm fine with the extra to time btw


*Sees that he is outnumbered*

TEAM ROCKET IS BLASTING OFF AGAIIIIIIIIINN!!! *dink*


Lol, when you think about it, Aeolars avatars face sorta looks like what you could expect to get if you made a composite of Jesses, James' and Meowths faces!


Need a background


<< Fully done with a flexible but distinct background


Alright... I'm still not quite back to full health, but I've made my decision! Drumroll, please...

The party will consist of:
Kiernan Kala
Natalie Moongroves
Narciso Silvertongue
Rodger Baruk

and finally (the hardest choice to make)
Cassius

I realize this makes us a bit caster heavy, but I think it'll work out.
Anyway, I'm gonna rest up the rest of the day and we will start officially tomorrow morning. Thanks to everyone who offered characters.


Thank you for choosing my character :D

My consolidations to all that missed out.


just realized, THREE SORCERERS AND A WITCH! Rodger, you're gonna have your work cut out for you lol


RPing my pants off and no go...Im beginning to think theres just something terribly wrong with this character..


For the record, I liked Gregory...

RPG Superstar 2015 Top 16

Awwww, I'm sorry Greg didn't make it. :( I really liked his character. Best luck next time, bro. *fistbump*

GM, can we make tweats to stats and builds? With 3 sorcs, I may want to tweak Cassius to have less overlap with the other two.

Envoy's Alliance

If any rejected characters would like to transfer their character over to a campaign that I might make, PM me, it will have the same character creation rules as this one, and ROTATING GMs. This is my perfect opportunity to DM and play. If I get 4 or more PMs I'll run a game.


Thanks for the RP opportunity, folks. Helped me develop this character a bit. Have fun, those who are in! Are non-players able to read along?


*Swigs from flask, then proceeds to sob uncontrollably into it*

Geralt, anyone can read it afaik, unless theres some sort of privacy setting I dont know about.


Well we did make over 225 posts in the roleplay section, so thanks for that enjoyable time everybody!

Thanks for choosing me, DM Awesome! And hope everyone who didn't get in had a good time...there were a ton of awesome characters, I imagine this was a real struggle when it comes to decisions! I'll whip up Narciso's alias ASAP.


Man why is it so hard to get a gunslinger picked. well good luck to everyone and it was nice rping with you.

Okay, so confirming our party makeup:

Rodger the Ranger
Narciso, Rogue
Natilie, Witch
And then Kiernan and Cassius as sorcs.

Narciso, I took Seeker Sorc primarily so that I could have Trapfinding and DD, but if you've got a dedicated rogue I won't bother with that (I know that Rakes don't get trapfinding, but you still get a good DD)... basically, up to you-- would you prefer I kept some focus up on traps, or would you rather be primary traps-person?

I'm debating switching out to Sage or Empyreal bloodline-- Sage because I want Cassius to be a decent Int char, or Empyreal cuz it wouldnt' be bad to have some Wis in the group and we have plenty of CHA already.

....of course, all of this is contingent on whether the GM lets me tweak things now that we have a finalized party. ;)

Also, GM, are we supposed to take normal gold for our class, or just the straight-up 150 gp "normal" gold for level 1 chars?


Hmmmmm...Narciso does have Disable Device trained (he has a history with breaking and entering) but you're right that he doesn't get trapfinding as per normal rogues. I'll leave it up to you--if we rely on Narciso to disable traps we probably won't be screwed, but he won't be as good as a normal rogue.

Also note that his Perception isn't worth a damn, so he will likely have to have the traps pointed out to him first. :P

RPG Superstar 2015 Top 16

Lol, well if I dropped Seeker and went Empyreal, I could have a nice high Perception and then point them out to you. ;)

It just means we couldn't disable magical traps but would have to trigger or bypass them. Honestly, I run into traps so rarely in Pathfinder...

I'll probably switch it out, but I'll wait for confirmation from GM that he's okay with me making changes.

Time to make an alias for Cassius.

Dark Archive

Ba-dink.


I'll have a great perception too, so you shouldn't run into too many problems there. I guess I am filling the tank role? As long as I survive the first four levels, we will be good once I get a kitty Kat :D
I think the disable magical devices is going to be really useful, because no doubt we are going to detect magic EVERYWHERE and not being able to take out a trap is really going to suck.

Thanks for choosing me, DM, I really appreciate it. Thanks for rping everyone! I had fun.

P.S. Cassius, dont jinx us by saying you rarely get trapped lol

Dark Archive

The things, there are usually ways you can get around a trap once you know it's there. Summoning creatures atop it, for instance. I was in a group that had a wand of Summon Mount, and that was the only and primary way we EVER disarmed traps for like six levels' worth of adventuring. We also only used like 12 charges off that wand in those six levels.

It's not always pretty, but there are a lot of advantages if I go with something besides Seeker Sorc, and the only real benefit of Seeker Sorc is the trapfinding.

And yeah, you're our tank, bro. ;) Good luck....


True true, unless its an alarmed trap. But most cases you can tell if it is or not. I plan on going full ranger, so my AC won't be very high, I'll just save up for Mithril Full Plate ;) As long as we have high caster DPs and some battlefield control, we shouldn't have to worry too much. Natalie has healing too which is nice.

I vote as soon as we have enough GPs we pool and get a happy stick.

Dark Archive

Remember you lose all your bonus combat feats if you wear heavy armor... ;)

And yeah, I'm very down with the idea of a happy stick.


Happy sticks are nice

Remember I have a healing hex for everyone once per day

Dark Archive

Which is fabulous! I was unsure if I might need to go Empyreal for the emergency healing, so I'm glad you've got that. Yay, Healing Hex.


Just to get this out of the way, what's the Gm's ruling on using the healing hex on myself?

Dark Archive

Why wouldn't you be able to use it on yourself?

Effect: This acts as a cure light wounds spell, using the witch’s caster level. Once a creature has benefited from the healing hex, it cannot benefit from it again for 24 hours.

There's no reason clerics can't cast CLW on themselves; I don't know of any reason why a witch can't use her beneficial hexes on herself.


I've had some GM's that disagreed with you and others that agreed so *shrug*

All I need is a feat in heavy armor proficiency: "Most mithral armors are one category lighter than normal for purposes of movement and other limitations. Heavy armors are treated as medium, and medium armors are treated as light, but light armors are still treated as light. This decrease does not apply to proficiency in wearing the armor. A character wearing mithral full plate must be proficient in wearing heavy armor to avoid adding the armor's check penalty to all his attack rolls and skill checks that involve moving. Spell failure chances for armors and shields made from mithral are decreased by 10%, maximum Dexterity bonuses are increased by 2, and armor check penalties are decreased by 3 (to a minimum of 0)."

Booyah!

Dark Archive

It has nothing to do with your proficiency, Rodger. Under the core entry for Rangers, it says:

SRD wrote:


The benefits of the ranger's chosen style feats apply only when he wears light, medium, or no armor. He loses all benefits of his combat style feats when wearing heavy armor.

And fair enough, Natilie, though I would look very askance at a GM who ruled you couldn't use your hexes on yourself.


Butbutbut...mithril plate is Medium armor, except for proficiency.

Dark Archive

Yeah, I realized that right after I posted, lol.

I can see a case being made for both sides, I guess. But yeah, saving up for mithril full plate, hoo doggie, expensive!

Dark Archive

Oh, Deliverance! I didn't realize Greg and Hugo are same player. Man, I'm even sadder you didn't get in. *fistbump from Zinny*


Oh lol, for some reason I was remembering the Dien alias as being Tomids, blargh ;)

*Fistbumps n handsigns*


Yeah, 10.5k :s

I am always up for suggestions to gear this character, I am still pretty nub when it comes to magical items :)

Dark Archive

I know you said you're going full ranger, but what style are you thinking? Shield and sword is the tankiest of the choices, of course, but if that's not what you had in mind, no worries.


I was going to go bow and sword, using a comp longbow and the bonus feats for range for the first couple rounds then jumping into the fray with my great sword. Planning on using my pet as the main tank at first.

Dark Archive

In that case I think the first few rounds of every combat is going to be a war between who can hide behind everyone else. :P


lol, more like let's see how long we can hold them off before they crash on us?

I really hope we are going to be using maps.

Dark Archive

'How long we can hold them off before they crash on us' is only really gonna be an effective tactic when we've got some starting distance between us and the enemy. Other than that, we're... essentially in melee in every fight just because that's how fights work.

I was proooobably going Toppling Spell route with magic missile which will give us some battlefield control options down the road, but honestly, if you're not planning on seriously focusing on melee for three more levels/when you get an animal companion, I may do some major rebuilding of my build so that I can semi-tank. (Again, assuming GM lets us rebuild/tweak.)


Well of course I am going melee, that's not the issue here. For me, (depending on the situation of course) its going to be preferable to get a good dent in their HP before I have to whip out the great sword. Take a look at my Character Sheet and you will see that I haven't even started on ranged. By level four I will be using a bow but I plan to get QuickDraw so that I can hop on melee after a round. Maybe I'll get improved initiative too, dunno yet. We also have a rogue so we arent completely helpless :)
