Game Master Whack-a-Rogue

Thanks hustonj. I appreciate the input.

Ahoy Mates, I'll like to join this adventure. I'm Troy Silverblood, at your service.

Please take a look at this character and see if i need to fix anything to join your campaign. I haven't written a background yet. I'll get that down as soon as possible. Basically his father was a captain and was disgraced by his men. This lead his father to commit suicide. From that day forward Troy's live goal is to become a captain and clean his father's name. I took the Buccaneer's Blood trait which answers why he stopped by port peril.

Thanks for the consideration.

Presenting Rickard "Flicker" Screed for your consideration.

Please let me know if I messed up the character sheet -- I'm sure I missed something or other.

@Sooshura - everything looks fine

@Troy Silverblood - I'm not allowing any 3rd-party classes, you'll you need to submit someone else. Sorry.

@Rickard Screed - everything looks fine. you may want to include a separate line under the "Offense" section for when you're using TWF. Not necessary, but makes it easier to remember the penalties.

Please let me know if I have missed you, if I have it was not done intentionally.
Hope it helps Whack-a-Rogue

I just finished doing that, actually. Didn't break it up that way, though. Thanks for the assist. :-)

You're welcome. Also Troy Silverblood is not using a 3rd party class, Swashbuckler is an Archtype of a Rogue.

I have always liked it when people do that when I am applying for games as it lets everyone see things clearly.

I knew about the Swashbuckler Rogue archetype, but he's using something else. Did a little digging and found this: Swashbuckler which appears to match his Character Sheet.

@Troy Silverblood: please correct me if I'm mistaken

Ah yes, I see. The Evade bit, I shall edit him on the list then. I thought it was strange he had Evasion and a Rogue Talent already. I never use that site, so didn't know about the other classes on there.

Did the same thing, because I remember having looked at Swashbuckler and not liking it and I liked what his was. I had a Swashbuckler in 3.5 that I adored, so...yeah...Really like that 3rd party class.

Am I correct in assuming that the Discussion thread is before the Campaign traits ending? So in my instance I have a drink in the tavern as I am just about to seal a deal and then everything goes black. Seeing as we are in a tavern, I figured this would make more sense and help with progress the beginning of the story.

How does that sound to you?

You're correct. Each PC gets a unique campaign intro, and I'm basing it partially on the Discussion thread happenings. Don't worry about role-playing River's "fade to black", I'll do it for you.... *evil GM grin*

...Great

You definitely have me feeling nervous, although it isn't the fading to black bit that worries me. It's the waking up in a strange place ... such as a chips hold, in a cage.

Wow, I didn't realize there was roleplay going on already in the discussion thread, better finish up my fluff so I can join in...Also, I ran into a snag, I haven't picked my free outfit, and it will put me into a medium load :(. So I switched out my armor to something lighter (leather) so I could afford the weight, even though I realize I wouldn't necessarily be carrying everything all of the time (And I could always drop my backpack in combat).

@whack-a-rogue: yeah thats what i used. d20 has always been my go to site, but here is a ranger i'll submit. Backstory will be the same and at level 2 he'll be using two weapon fighting.

I'd like to submit. I dig piracy!

McKeegan was an odd dwarf.

He always felt more at home near the sea than the stone. He saw his art in the wood and chemicals instead of stone and metal. He kept his beard shaved to allow his nose to be able to sniff the concoctions he brewed (and because of that wee tiny accident with the fire that one time, never you mind.)

When he was of age, he left his tiny village and boarded a ship for sea. On its first voyage a run of disease killed the saw bones and left the Carpenter's Apprentice, McKeegan, in charge of healing. So his saw was put to use cutting off limbs and his chemicals went to healing the aches and pains of the crew instead of building masts. It was there he began to be called Bones, for his personality as well as his new profession.

The thing was, he took to it like a duck to water. He was good at it, good at healing and keeping dying men alive and fighting. Good enough that when his time was up and he docked, he left the ship to take an offer to board a Chelish naval vessel, the pride of the line and a fat paycheck as well.

At least, that was the plan. A stop for a drink at a lowly tavern changed everything. Now the gods only know where he's bound...

@Troy Silver blood - looks fine now.

@Bones McKeegan - everything looks fine

Here's Lies' history, it's rather short, but it answers the questions in the OP.

Lies is an actual nickname for the name Elizabeth, so she introduces herself as such, "Elizabeth Verity, but you can call me Lies." Lies being a nickname for Elizabeth is not a coincidence, that is how I found the name and I knew I had to do something with it.

I'm definitely still thinking barbarian, but having played the game, I don't want to go overboard in optimization. Had that issue with my alchemist my first go around.

Was definitely thinking dwarf and was thinking either sea reaver or invulnerable rager (but I feel like invulnerable rager might be a bit overpowered, in some aspects).

You definitely have me feeling nervous, although it isn't the fading to black bit that worries me. It's the waking up in a strange place ... such as a chips hold, in a cage.

Don't worry. Just remember that there is nothing to fear but fear itself.

And me... ;-)

Cuddles yells, AND ME!!!, but soon realizes that he may have misunderstood the statement and looks around sheepishly.

I am pleased to see that I am the only waves oracle submitted. The other time I applied I think there were three. And was was even using the same portrait as me. lol.

This is ShadowyFox's barbarian, & I'm working on the crunch of him, but I'd like to join in the RP over in the discussion thread, if that's alright.

No problem! :-)

Sooshura is a MALE Undine Cleric of Besmara. My apologies for causing the misunderstanding, somehow.

Role-play already? Dang . . ..

Darn, sorry about that Hustonj. Very tired, if another list is needed, I will make to to remedy that. Sorry again.

I'm closing recruitment in about 12hrs (noonish EST), so hurry and get any last-minute submissions in. :-)

:) Submission is incoming. Just deciding on languages and gear. And, of course, his fluff. But so far, a good deal of fun. :)

As far as languages, he obviously is starting with Dwarven and Common, but I'm trying to decide on what two additional he should have.

Ok, Whack-A-Rogue, what do you think? Got all but the languages portion of the fluff. Still trying to figure out those last 2 languages. Thinking Polygot (to reflect part of the background), but the last I have no clue on.

So, having just lost out on another recruitment, I started lurking around for somewhere to put this character to use, as the creation process had left me chomping at the bit to play with him.

Ive tried to get into S&S games several times, but the always draw overwhelming amounts of applicants (as shown here). Your initial recruitment post left me feeling confident this game will last, so here I am.

Character stats and the end of his background are currently set up for the other PbP I applied for, but I will edit that if im selected.

Cheers

All right, everyone: recruitment's now closed. I'll look over everyone's submissions more in-depth and make my final decision later today. Thanks to everyone for your interest.

So eager to hear now!

Man, this was tricky... So many awesome submissions! After much thought, I've chosen the following characters: Alain Shadestrom, Aldous Mathis, and Tao Sheng.

Thanks to everyone who submitted characters; I wish you the best of luck. Hopefully we'll meet again in a future campaign.

Try to have fun, guys!

Congrats to those who made it. This will not be the last that'll be seen of Stormbeard!

I would love to see like a cameo of Senor Diabolito and his gut bustin brew.

Well maybe it'll all work out. One day we'll see the Little Devil in a group, one way or another. :)

Crosses fingers

Congratulations and have fun!

Good luck unwilling sailors! He-he-he...

Unwilling? What ya talkin' bout Bellamy?

Bah! Oh well, guess I should have participated more in the discussion thread.
