Jelani's The Witchwar Legacy (Inactive)

Game Master Brian Minhinnick

Any feedback for me?

Woo, 2 more points of AC. It's crazy, because with wild shape on Cho has like a 39 AC. I didn't even calculate in mage armor yet, which puts it at a 43!

I feel pretty good about that :)

OK, got the Eidolon stats up. I can't really support the math on it, Used Hero lab, and I haven't been able to find the point cost for the basic form in the book. lol Feeling the pressure.

Oh, and you have Cho listed as bipedal. He's quadrupedal, but I realize I may have not listed that directly on his sheet or spreadsheet. I'll remedy that. He's basically cerberus, a huge three-headed wolf thing.

(cho also has the Mount evolution, in the event that we get anyone who wants to ride on the DOOM WOLF.)

I realize in hindsight that also having a Dinosaur would've been cool, but running an animal companion on top of this... thing, would've killed my brain.

Brujeka could have an animal companion as well. I didn't do it for the same reason.

BTW DM Jelani, the eidolon stats are at the bottom of the block.

Recruitment is closed!

I'll post the final list of applicants in a few minutes.

Well crap! It looks like I did not make this in time :(

With a flash of bright white light a lithe and beautiful nude woman with skin the color of marble appears before you, hovering upon powerful white wings and radiating a sense of serenity. "Fear not mortal, I mean you no harm." she says in your native tongue. "My name is Mariah. I am an Archon of Iomedae, The Inheritor." Her voice is like beautiful music, pure and without fault. She carries a long thin gleaming silver trumpet that is covered in swirling, natural-looking patterns. "I am here because your deeds are known to us. My mistress bids me invite you to take part in mission of dire importance. Events have been set in motion that if not stopped, will lead to a terrible evil being unleashed on Golarion. We have prepared a gift for you that will make you stronger than you've ever been before, hopefully strong enough to avert disaster. My commander awaits us, with answers for your questions. Time is of the essence, will you come with me?" Her chest-length, midnight black curls wave gently in an unseen wind, as she extends one perfect hand out towards you, a look of urgency in her iridescent blue eyes.

Stops looking at his maps in abrupt alarm, his hands reaching for his trusty tetsubo

I'm all for stopping evil, that's been my mission for years, in particular for my enslaved people. But how do I know this isn't some clever Oni trick, Devils like to to tempt men with flesh and beauty to lull them into safety... and I've seen it happen enough to be wary of beautiful women bare except for their words, although I suppose as you've caught me unawares you could have more easily caused harm if you'd wanted... I'll come, but I'm first going to arm myself and let my comrades know where I'll be... He looks around, eyes averting from the woman, stern and stoic the image he projects, If you kill me the movement will still continue! Too many events are in motion for you to stop good folk from rising up! He looks into her eyes That is if you're a demon, if you're seriously from Iomede you might just have the power I'm looking for in my quest! He smiles, and hefts his mighty tetsubo and saunters towards her, arm out and ready to escort her and his eyes firmly looking towards her feet, his peripheral vision barely able to watch her hands.

What were the other mechanical errors? I'm sorry I'm at work and trying to work out the multiple profiles is hard constantly being interrupted. (I work 12hr shifts thur-sun and while I can post alot it's often interrupted)

Kommandar Killthemjaro was a goblin born of the bloodsnake clan, he was a also a goblin seemingly born out of his time. Most every night he would get dreams. Dreams of a never ending battle on a world that could never possibly be this one. It was a war of conquest and bloodshed, the earth covered in greenskins, orcs, goblins and beasts of all types in such numerous quantities as to turn the ground into a living tide. Such quantities of orcs and goblinkind could never exist on Golariaon yet he could see them crystal clear in his minds eye. Best of all, every single one of them was equipped with guns of all sorts and killy potential and aside them strode gigantic metal beasts known only as "Tanks." These awe inspiring beasts drew such admiration from the goblin that he coveted it above all else.

All of a sudden he was awoken by a bright flash of light...

Kommandar Killthemjaro's response was a simple one.

Im going as fast as I can here! As such, some of it might not be up to my usual standard ^-^

Sorry about not finishing in time - this weekend suddenly turned crazy on me. I think I'm actually gonna finish building anyway, just because I'm interested to see where I'm taking this; keep me in mind if you need another player later on!

Damit, I just got too much to do to finish it quickly and I just dont have the time to do it... If I hadnt slept that last 2 hours I could have had this thing up and going :(
Its really frustrating to not be able to participate, not because I was not selected but because I didnt get a submission up in time :(
I lost the chance to play a gobo in another campaign. Well good luck to you guys and hopefully you get in and have a blast :) Make sure to make an impression for my gobo who couldnt come XD

Okay, here are my selections.

Tank - Vega
Damage - Gror
Divine - Poppy
Arcane - Ophilia
Traps/skills/stuffs - Dorialis
Other - Cho'ankai

It was the damage spot that I had a really hard time with. Came down to between Gror and Enkidu. In the end I think Gror is going to put out more damage. His background also ties him more into this particular story. The rest who weren't selected, thank you for your time. I appreciate that you were interested, and I hope you enjoyed making your characters as much as I enjoyed reading them.

To those of you who didn't make it on time, again I'm sorry. But the deadline and requirements have been the same since the original post, and I feel I provided plenty of warning reminders. If you finish them up I will keep you in mind in case we need any replacements.

That goes for those not selected as well, if we need any replacement players at some point I will be posting here.

The final team, please head over to the discussion thread.

It happens.

I'll be interested to see how the magic side of things work out with this. Alot of builds have higher than normal saves, but the saves vs their spells that the characters cast will be easier for the NPCs than normal. also dispell magic and anti-magic will be incredibly effective against this party.

I had monk's robes giving the d8 to attacks, but am not sure if it applies. There seems to be an issue with natural vs unarmed attacks. So base damage may be d3 instead. Which is fine, the SA is where the damage comes in.

Dropping the iterative attack too.

However, multiattack increases the tentacle as it only has a -2 penalty now.

RAW multi-attack doesn't give you the ability to perform multiple attacks... it only reduces the penalty if you can.

Of course raw doesn't give any PC the ability to attack more than twf.

Monk's robes don't apply, you're right about multiattack. Lets move to discussion Dorialis.

An eidolon gains Multiattack as a bonus feat if it has 3 or more natural attacks and does not already have that feat. If it does not have the requisite 3 or more natural attacks (or it is reduced to less than 3 attacks), the eidolon instead gains a second attack with one of its natural weapons, albeit at a –5 penalty. If the eidolon later gains 3 or more natural attacks, it loses this additional attack and instead gains Multiattack.

Eidolons gain a second attack with a natural attack, this is a change to the normal multiattack rules so as long as you only got 2 natural attacks or less you can get a second attack with it.

Its sad (and frustrating) that I was unable to get everything up in time, and you did give plenty of warning (which I was asleep for :( my fault) so I am not angry or sore or anything, just a bit mad at myself.
That said,

I'm sorry if that sh*ts on your vision, but find me another DM who's willing to let you create a goblin inside a giant snake wielding a large sized double hackbut (which would be a cannon by it's very definition:A large, heavy piece of artillery, typically mounted on wheels, formerly used in warfare. Check, check, check.) or take a siege weapon into a dungeon.

I just managed to find such a GM! (go figure...) so I will be upgrading him to level 20 and apply him to that campaign. Surprising that so many peeps would be willing to do something like this -_-

Tsk. Well, have fun fellas.

Out of professional pride, I am going to post a few things I was going to use to achieve a quite nasty level of damage, in case it wasn't immediately apparent.

Smite Evil
Once per day, a paladin can call out to the powers of good to aid her in her struggle against evil. As a swift action, the paladin chooses one target within sight to smite. If this target is evil, the paladin adds her Cha bonus (if any) to her attack rolls and adds her paladin level to all damage rolls made against the target of her smite. If the target of smite evil is an outsider with the evil subtype, an evil-aligned dragon, or an undead creature, the bonus to damage on the first successful attack increases to 2 points of damage per level the paladin possesses. Regardless of the target, smite evil attacks automatically bypass any DR the creature might possess.

Aura of Justice
At 11th level, a paladin can expend two uses of her smite evil ability to grant the ability to smite evil to all allies within 10 feet, using her bonuses. Allies must use this smite evil ability by the start of the paladin's next turn and the bonuses last for 1 minute. Using this ability is a free action. Evil creatures gain no benefit from this ability.

Litany of Righteousness
Calling down a litany of anathema, you make an evil more susceptible to the attacks of good creatures. If the target is evil, it takes double damage from attacks made by creatures with a good aura (from a class feature or as a creature with the good subtype). If the target also has the evil subtype; when it is hit with attacks made by creatures with a good aura, it is also dazzled for 1d4 rounds. If this spell targets a nonevil creature (or one that lacks the evil subtype), it has no effect, and the spell is wasted.

I was considering smite (but not Litany, that's nice), but it also came down to backstory. Not just pure damage. His character is already invested in Irrisen, opposing Baba Yaga and the region. He also offered an unequivocal yes to the archon. Enkidu offered a yes with a condition that the archon couldn't really keep. You're a great player man, I love having you in my other game. Don't feel like Enkidu's not awesome, he is. It was a tough choice :/

It's all cool. Good luck with it.

Can't win them all...

Good gaming, have fun with it.
