I think cuddles would have trouble with understanding the real meaning of worship, let alone make a good priest.
lol :-D
Ultimately, at the current moment, I'm not overly worried about being priest. In terms of Pathfinder, I certainly agree that Cleric and Priest are not synonymous terms, but I always figured a Cleric already had the dedication needed. Like I said, not overly worried about it yet. There is the possibility I'm going to splash for 3 levels, so we will see, I haven't fully decided what classes to be.
If cuddles ever multiclassed, it would be into Druid, probably Bear or Lion Shaman for the wild shape. But I doubt I'll leave monk any time soon.
Aldous would go rogue to get skills and because it makes sense as a follower of Calistria. Otherwise, it's all Cleric, all the time.
You talking about the minor deities made me think of the Drowned God from George R.R. Martins "A Song of Ice and Fire" books.
I am unsure whether to go with priest as of yet, I don't think she has the right attitude for that. But I think that if she prayers to anyone for guidance it would be both the Sea itself and Arirai.
"What is dead may never die." :D
So, I should probably explain what's going on....
Tao PM'd me the other day asking to take on another PC's punishment if someone was going to get lashes. I agreed since it made for a nice roleplay moment. Also, without giving too much away, I'm setting up some stuff for later in the AP. :-)
Anyway, sorry for giving y'all a nasty scare. Carry on! :-)
LOL. Sorry folks. My fault. :lays in front of bus:
I wasn't expecting it, but I think this event marks the beginning of his Barbarian career. I wonder if there is a similar archtype to corsair for barbarian.
I was planning on taking a certain discovery next level anyway ... but now it will seem like I have snapped mentally! But it will make everything better for you guys ... as well as myself.
Check out the Sea Reaver archetype. That's about all I can think of.
Could potentially do a repurposed Urban Barbarian so you would have a controlled rage, if YBD allowed a tiny amount of repurposing.
As I stated in the initial post of the Recruitment thread, I love it when players reflavor their stuff. One of my PFS characters is a literal superhero. Spandex, domino mask, "crash, zip, bang", the works. Class-wise, he's a Wizard/Ninja. :-)
Awesome roleplay so far tonight, everyone. I'm off to bed now but will update during my work break tomorrow. :-)
Hmmm, may need to use my influence role on Enya tomorrow rather than on a member of the crew. :-)
lol
Enya : Just letting you know that this is all role-play in character and in no way is meant as a personal jab.
I am just clarifying this as I have done something similar once in a game and a player took it personally, so I like to clear it all up before any serious damage (intended or otherwise) is done and ruins the game for everyone else, including ourselves.
I have just been reading up on the Undines and usually they can go from calm to angered and back again within minutes. But the showing of emotions is rare ... I think getting whipped (all of us) counts as a rare occasion to remain angry for a while, wouldn't you say?
Y.B.D : I have just found a spell that I would have known, so was wondering if I could switch it for one of my existing spells, not one that I have already used or considered using (including Burning Hands)?
@River: Enya's been enjoying the back-and-forth as well. Ifrits are passionate and easily angered, so she's having fun. :-) What spell are you referring to?
@River Same here silly! I started it. :-) Its just how Enya is. Im very much playing the Ifrit in her. No offence taken and this is the kind of stuff I enjoy. Makes gaming demensional from the usual 'oh were a party and we never have quarrels!' Aspect that always seems to happen in games. She isnt a bad girl, she is just very spirited.
Hmmm, may need to use my influence role on Enya tomorrow rather than on a member of the crew. :-)
Hahaha!
You have the exact same view on gaming as I do then, good to know :) I always thought it was weird that a group of adventurers would never argue or have fights.
The morning is going to be interesting, especially with working ... who is going to skip work I wonder?
Y.B.D : Undines Curse, yes it is nasty but only under certain circumstances. I can see it working very well with River's backstory. If not, then I could have said I bought a scroll of it at the beginning and added it to my spell list. Would mean rolling a Spellcraft to learn it (which is the option I would rather have, if I had the money for it?)
@River: Yeah, we can say you scribed it before the adventure started. Feel free to Take 10 on the Spellcraft roll. :-)
Sweet thanks. Will make the Coup a lot easier too ... if I can choose the correct target, which I have in mind :)
How would youall feel if he took you two's argument into his own hands? I'm tempted to. :)
Be my guest, it will make it more interesting. Although at the moment it is only a 1 sided argument as I haven't really said anything back :P
Y.B.D : Let me know if you struggle to find anything on my profile, I try to set it up so it's easy to find and all the spells are links to their correct pages. But just in case.
Just remember, Enya isnt in the room anymore.
Wow... I am starting the freakin Cuddles Fan Club!
BAIT: PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER!
WHO'S WITH ME!!!
I'm in! I will take the position of : Number 1 fan!
Can I be your spokesdwarf and bouncer?
OH MAN! ITS THE LURKER DORF!
BAIT: PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER
RIVER: #1 FAN AND AWESOME FISHY FOLK OF ANGRINESS
DIABOLITO: SPOKESDWARF/BOUNCER/LURKER EXTRAORDINAIR
Count me in as well.
@River/Cuddles: Way to initiate some pseudo-pvp. I'll make pirates out of you yet! More fun times ahead... ;-)
I must admit I did look at his profile to check his Grapple bonus ... he only needs to roll a 2 to grab me! Not going to happen.
Could any of us doing a knowledge or Survival to try and work out where we are and how far away from land we are? If so then I will bring the topic up on the following day, as I am one of the most intelligent in the group (of the characters, not players). So it makes sense for me to ask, but don't want to get peoples hopes up by asking.
Yep! Survival or Knowledge (geography) to estimate your current position.
I want to say sorry again for not allowing you to respond, River. One should always let the player control the character.
That being said, once I have you I get a +5 to maintain, so you pretty much can't get away. :P
CUDDLES HAPPY HAVE CLUB OF FANS. HE DO BEST TO ENJOY WIND MADE BY FANS. ESPECIALLY ON HOT DAY.
Cuddles, I was not expecting you to fail. If you had rolled a 1 or 2, that would have been hilarious though as you back away from me slowly. But alas the dice decided for us to be serious for a while.
Sorry about the rant. I don't usually interrupting another player who is acting in character but Alain would be genuinely worried about what would happen if everyone on deck started abandoning their posts without orders.
My intension is that if the four of them are able to slip away quietly Alain will go around to the friendly/helpful crew members and ask them to help cover for their absence. I'm not sure what Enya's reaction will be though so I didn't want to get too far ahead.
That was a rant? LoL I look back at some of my previous posts with double the text and now I worry that I post too much, if your post was a rant. ^_^
Less about the amount of text and more about the intensity. Also it felt like PvP and I hate playing that way.
I actually thought it was awesome RP. The Ifrit who is known for having a volatile personality bursts out in a bluster. Your character reprimands her for putting us in danger. I think you did awesome... But I DO understand your stance on it. Some people would see it in a differently. I am just happy that we (every last one of us from what I have seen) are quite excellent RPers and adults about the game. I honestly think you are playing your character admirably. Besides, some interpersonal conflict makes it feel more real since we all have only known each other for about 5 days total. Some personality clashes are bound to arise. Eh, I don't know. Now I feel like I really AM ranting. >.<
On a separate note...
I am going to be flying over seas in about 12 hours, I will be on a 28 hour flight, so I will be MIA for about 48-72 to give myself time to recoup from the long trip. I apologize that I will be out for so long and I will catch up as soon as I can. In the mean while I would like to ask our friendly neighborhood GM to please take over my character and run em as you see fit until my return.
Are these rat's skulls big enough to wear as hats?
If not, I'm so going to do arm wrestling for money, visit the store, buy a hat, and affix one of these skulls to said hat. :D
Edit: and I want to make sure it's either masterwork, or I'm going to buy a Masterwork Transformation spell later so I can enchant the eye sockets with continual flame and other such shenanigans.
That would be cool, however these are Dire Rats which I believe are only Small (considering most rats come under Tiny that is very big for a rat.)
Going for the hat route then. I'll take all the skulls and make a kind of headdress out of them. :D
Or pay to permanently enlarge one..
Either way, Cuddles calls dibs on the skulls.
It is awesome roleplay! I love fighting, especially with a hot-headed character. Oh Alain, btw, you might want to start diplomacizing Enya, she is now Hostile towards you. And like with River, I like it when there is some inter party strife. It makes the game have more demension to it. :) The hostile thing shouldnt last for long, as long as Alain realizes what he is doing.
Shockingly, I could find no pictures on google of hats with large rat skulls affixed. I only did 2 or 3 searches, but still. I will endeavor to describe my hat and the method of procuring the skulls as graphically as possible. :)
Cuddles, I have to say I can see you going with something similar to a character in a recent animated film.
In Google type in : EPIC Mandrake
you will see what I mean :P
Yes. Except replace the fur with a few rat skulls and the bow with great meaty hands beating the life out of you. :)
Cuddles, I have a feeling, is going to become a rather dark good guy.

I expected Enya to fly into a rage when Alain reprimanded her and, in my experience, people in a rage don't respond to diplomacy. The only thing that gets through is something intense. Alain will apologise tonight if you give him a chance.
I generally don't use diplomacy, or any other skill, against another character. Like I said earlier, it feels to much like PvP and I hate PvP. We can talk it out though.
