Numeria Land of Fallen Stars is allowed.

I would be willing to allow uncivilized tactics.

The reason I do this isn't because I want to discourage anyone from anything. (Or at least nothing too out there). I just like being able to look at the original source of material for myself. I own all the main hardcovers, but my local store doesn't carry the splats. The splats I mentioned in the OP were called out specifically in the players guide so I read them first. (Champions of balance was also mentioned, but I missed that on my first look.) Expanding beyond this isn't bad, as long I know what book to go looking in. And there are websites to check things against until I getvaround to looking at the other books.

Also, if I want to tailor an encounter to better fit the PCs, it helps to use some material that matches the themes they're using.

Yes.

Repairing Nanites: Some androids cannot prompt their nanites to aid them in any endeavor, but instead find that their nanites stitch their wounds together. The first time each day that such an android has taken an amount of damage greater than or equal to twice her Hit Dice, the nanites automatically activate, without an action. Her circuitry-tattoos glow with light equivalent to that of a torch for 1 round and she heals a number of hit points equal to twice her Hit Dice. This racial trait replaces nanite surge.

Makes mores sense than Nanite Surge for the quick background on the character.

Thoughts?

Just saw this as I was going through everything and I like that ability.


Garroth Seren needs to change on of his traits to a campaign trait.


Hmm, correct. Probably gonna go with Additional Traits feat then, I think I have a "hanging feat" I havnt known what to use for.


Looking at the campaign ones, id probably go with either Against the Technic League or Robot Slayer.

Background:

Harrash is the product of the "half-elf baby dilemma." He was discovered in the outskirts of Numeria by androids who assumed his parents had abandoned him.

While they tried to make the correct decision by adopting him, they didn't give him the affection that a humanoid requires, although they had no way of knowing so. Harrash, for his part, bears no particular affection for androids. As soon as he could, he fled his adoptive parents' house to live in the outskirts of Torch, where he met an ape, which seems more human to him than robots, or even most humanoids. He is not interested in decimating all androids, but he is suspicious of all androids and robots, and doesn't want to be at all lenient with them.

Harrash lacks a sense of humor and has a pessimistic outlook on life due to his upbringing. When Khonnir disappeared, Harrash naturally suspected robots or androids, and decided to make sure that they wouldn't cause more harm than they already had.


I started Iron Gods with this character, but it died halfway trough book 1. I would like to try and give it another go.

This character would need minor adjustments, most notably removing Unintentional Linguïst.

Grand Lodge

I will be with drawin' Forvir, I got into another IG game.


Dilana is no longer available to fight the menace under Torch.

Sovereign Court

Just missed in another IG recruitment, so hope to fare better :)

Arrenopos background:

Arrenopos awoke about six months ago. He has no knowledge of where he came from or who he is. He was found by Khonnir Baine in the wastes outside of Torch. Khonnir recognized him for what he is and helped ease him into human society and helped disguise his true nature. Arrenopos has skills that he is still coming to realize. The last six months have been vexing for him, especially when dealing with Khonnir’s daughter, Val. Human emotions still confuse him despite his intense scrutiny. Khonnir’s tutelage has been invaluable though and Arrenopos is slightly more comfortable on his own now among the population of Torch. Khonnir has also taught Arrenopos about his true nature. This has only deepened his unease. Who is he? What purpose was he created for? Despite his progress, Arrenopos continues to have a deep seated and irksome feeling that he has some specific purpose and this “feeling” is disquieting to him. What that purpose is though, still evades him.

Also, I didn't see if the question had been asked, but are you allowed to take a drawback to gain an additional trait?


I'd like to apply with an unchained rogue. Olimpia is an android with the Numerian Scavenger archetype and the Against the Technic League trait. Having previously been their property, she is first inclined to run or hide from these sadistic cult members but will fight if cornered or the stakes are right.

Oilmpia has the Technologist feat and Technic Training from her archtype. She does extra damage against the Technic League and as she levels will gain other advantages like being able to roll twice for glitches, picking the one she prefers (4th level), and bypassing the hardness of robots (8th level).

Oh, and for the record, I too like background skills. :)


Still finalizing some stuff (mostly spells and equipment), but I'd like to offer Old Scrapper. Bard (archaeologist) who is the local crazy old guy (although not that old, and maybe not so crazy) who spends his life scavenging old bits of technology.


Recruitment is closed. I'll go over the last minute submissions and post my decisions probably on Wednesday.


If it makes a difference in your characyer, Galahad, I qpuld allow taking a drawback to get an additional trait.

Good Luck Everyone!

GM: I haven't put background skills in yet - I'll do it if I get selected.

Not critical, but if I do, it would be "meticulous" as it fits the Android idea.


I think I missed the option for a drawback as well and will consider them if selected. I'll try to pick something that fits well and encourages role play.


Hey GM, I saw you closed recruitment and just wanted to re-affirm my interest since I hadn't posted here in a while. Didn't want to get passed over or anything because I hadn't checked in. Adrien was already built to your specifications so he should be ready to go if selected. As Darian said, we were in a game together when the GM disappeared from the boards. I would love to take another crack at Iron Gods, as I've only ever gotten a few rooms into tue caverns below Torch.


Here's the list of characters that were accepted:
Arrenopos
Valeria Starr
Adrien Belmont
Harrash
Skivven


Take the next couple of days to get your character sheets finished up and I'll have the gameplay thread up Friday or Monday.


Hey, thanks for the pick!

Do you anticipate having a Discussion thread up before that, or no?


Woot!

Looking forward to the game.


Okay, I have separated out background skills.

GM: Since you are allowing Drawbacks for a third trait, would you allow the River Rat trait to be re-themed as "Sewer Rat" instead? If so I will add that trait and a drawback.

Also: There is no special ratfolk favored class bonus for Investigators (I think only core races got FCBs in the Advanced Class Guide). But the ratfolk FCB for alchemists is 1/6th of an alchemist discovery. Would you allow a custom FCB for ratfolk that gives 1/6th of an investigator talent?

If the answer is no to either of these it's no big deal.


Matt, thank you for the selection. No need to rush. I can't speak for the others but I'm going to be a little tied up what with the holiday weekend and a all.

Sovereign Court

Thank you!


@Adrien I'll throw up the discussion thread later today.

@Skivven-Yes to both

@Valeria-I kind of figured at least some people would have holiday plans.

I'll put up the discussion thread today for everyone to just talk if they want. Maybe I'll get the gameplay thread up tomorrow, maybe not. There's really no hurry to get it up before Monday though.

Cool, thanks.

Realized that if there was a trait with the word "Rat" in the name then I wanted to have it.

Even if gameplay hasn't started yet, getting the gameplay thread up is useful because one people dot in the campaign will show up on their campaign tab.


Can anyone see the discussion thread? It seemed to disappear on me.

Sovereign Court

Campaign board is having some problems. Paizo will need to fix it. (It's not just you, it's all of the PBP games.)


Just as a heads up, they appear to be fixed.


Awesome.
