Other Gear: Corsair hat (worn sideways), black eyepatch (worn over his left eye), handkerchief with flower motives worn as a bandana, a rat's tail worn as a ponytail, red stained shirt, small backpack, small rusty knife, wooden pipe used as a toothpick, broken astrolabe, coin purse full of bone irregular dice, his former lucky toad (Drowny) that died of dysentery: he glued a crow's beak to the toad face and now he usually put that over his shoulder, half a bottle of rum, old healing potion full of seawater, 8 crusts of cheese (counts as a daily ration).

Background:
Buz always wanted to be a pirate. The tales he heard depict them as bloodthirsty adventurers, sailing the seas, pillaging and plundering along the way. What's not to like? But the life as a member of the Licktoad tribe is no adventure, and the largest body of water near his village was just a big pond of mud. Sick of swamps and frogs, Buz left his tribe and headed to Sandpoint, looking for a good chance to join a pirate crew. For a while he lived in the sewers near the city docks, catching glimpses of his future life as a mighty bucaneer. He was able to steal a corsair's hat, a blunderbuss that is too big for him (he struggles with recoil sometimes) and a black eyepatch (his left eye is perfectly fine, but Buz believes that wearing it helps him with the aim somehow). But what he really wanted was a truly pirate peg leg, so when he accidentally shot himself in the tip of the right foot he was very happy to make 5 crudely crafted wooden toes, and he proudly wears the half-exploded boot for everyone to see. When he heard that a ship was headed near The Shackles, a zone notoriously full of pirates, he snuck past the ship guards and travelled all the way there into the ship's lower decks. He managed to arrive there, and since then has joined the Gullchoker goblin pirate tribe. He may not be as experienced as his companions, but he's eager to make his enemies tremble in fear for his name.

Buz's Song
Hear Buz thunder, hear Buz shoot,
hear yar buttocks meet his boot.
Toads and mud he don't give a hoot,
Cuz he wants the shiniest shiny loot.

As there is a cleric and druid, that is a lot of magic; so I will build my guy on the rogue base, but the city rogue doesnt really make sense so I would like to use the wilderness rogue changes from the Unearth Arcana which is more along the outside pirate goblin theme.

I don't know if there's an official 'engineer' class, but earlier you were talking about doing an 'engineer' and the GM surely didn't sound against the idea.

Found this:
The Engineer (Alchemist Archetype) which is what it says on the tin?

(And Whosi is hilarious, also I dunno if I'm accepted yet and even if I am party balance isn't as important as unbalanced nuttiness probably. :) I just posted here cuz I saw you ask about how to make an engineer)


Male Efreeti, advanced manthing 45HD

That Engineer is pretty cool; but will stick with what I got I think. One Feat; boy tuff choice; so many to choose from. Hehe, any chance gobs are like humans and get two :) ?

been kicking around a background; got to put pen to paper.

I just saw that we are supposed to have minimun starting gold, 60 gp in my case. That's barely any money for ammo! If I drop the dragon's breath cartridge, the armor, 2 doses of powder, 1 bullet and 1 pellets I might get to that money. James, are you ok with this or can you just let me keep the armor?

Sovereign Court RPG Superstar 2010 Top 16, 2011 Top 32

The minimum starting gold is to reflect the fact that you're all starving goblin members of a failing tribe that has been hounded by enemies on all sides. You're not bright eyed heroes out to conquer the world. Lose everything down to the minimum. Don't worry, treasure will flow.

Also: everything used in the build must be Paizo-made. No Unearthed Arcana, no third party stuff. I've had bad experiences with both.

The book I'm using is the Goblins of Golarion companion. It gives you the stats for goblins PCs, new traits and feats and info about the different tribes. The stat block and the Other Gear section is instead inspired by the pregenerated characters in the We Be Goblins module, which unlike the Companion is free at the Paizo store.

I see that you are going with Rogue. A good trait to choose could be Color Thief: you blend into the enviroment due to the odd colour of your skin (+2 stealth if you wear light or no armor), which is fine since you are basically covered in coal.

As for feat, in the Companion there is the Burn!Burn!Burn! one (1d4 extra damage when attacking with nonmagical or alchemical fire, +4 reflexes to avoid catching fire). I think it would fit your character.

Gotcha. Dropping all the stuff, getting a padded armor (5 gp) instead. I'm not using any 3rd party stuff as far as I can see.

What do you think of my character? Do you have any suggestions to make?

You can get stuff for 3/4 the cost if it is 'cobbled together'. This means that it weighs double what it should and it breaks on a natural roll of a 1.

Which just adds wonderfully to the image of gobs running around with tied-together weapons too large for them that are as liable to damage the wielder as the target, IMHO. :)

That's a rule from the Goblins of Golarion Companion, btw, so totally legal here (I made a LOT of use of it!)

Pix; I dont have the Companion; would you mind just making my gobby? I think you have a good grip on what I am trying for and this feat and trait you suggested are fine.

Background

Spoiler:

Shriga was born into the Gullchoker tribe and earned her name well prior to being uncaged for her incessant attempts to mimic gull calls. On a good day, this performance actually brought food on the wing. On a bad day, it didn't make anyone's headaches any more bearable. She is more skilled than most goblins of the tribe when it comes to the art of salvaging Things That Float and assembling them into Still Larger Things That Float, at times even taking raftbuilding and ship-repair to a level that could even be considered craft. Her other hobbies appear to involve faceplanting in tidepools and licking semi-toxic marine life. When she fell off a raft one evening, the more ingrogulated locals deemed it a relief. Unfortunately, a few days later as the tribe was engaged in breaming a larger captured hull, she flopped out of the shallows with a wide-eyed glassy look, a face full of urchin spines, and an almost inarticulate announcement that she had Spoken To Lady Lastbreath. Subjected to several days of alternately breathing dried stonefish smoke and attempts by the existing priestess to drown her, Shriga finally was reluctantly admitted as an apprentice. That incident occurred over a year ago, and at the last Spring tide, the priestess booted her out again, having announced to all and sundry that she'd taught Shriga 'as much as she needed to know' while grudgingly admitting that Shriga was 'a priestess' but certainly not 'The Priestess' and that anything else was 'between her and the goddess'. Shriga has spent a fair amount of time engaged in her disconcerting pastime of lying face-down in tidepools since then, a habit made even more disturbing since now she seems to be able to do it for extensive periods of time. When not apparently drowning inland, she is often seen wandering about with various bits of salvaged flotsam, small buckets with captured toxic sea creatures, and either glaring or looking with hungry cunning in the direction of The Priestess's raft.

Description:

Spoiler:

Voted most-likely in her litter to be mistaken for flotsam. Stormy-ocean dark grey-green hide, three foot two, many well-honed teeth, lean and bony, with charmingly scarlet enormous bulging eyes and...Is that hair or seaweed trailing down her scalp and back? Yes to both! She tends to be rather damp. Also slimy. Wears what was once a stunning halfling ball-gown. Now the only thing stunning about it is its color, which is a synapse-searing hot neon pink with undertones of scarlet where the sun hasn't yet bleached it. Over the gown she wears a sort of open long (on her) jack-coat of soggy leather, patched with kelp and turtle-skin and covered with tangled netting and old rusty fish-hooks. Many, many old rusty fish-hooks of various sizes. If it isn't propped up reverently on a post, a boulder or the remnants of a barrel, she will have a hunk of heavy coral which looks like a large bird-skull tied atop her head (not in the 'cool fantasy' I am wearing a skull way but in the 'I am ludicrously skinny and have a big rock on my head' way). Said hunk of coral is similarly decorated with seaweed and shiny shells. Usually has a dead gull on her back, partly making use of the available fish-hooks there and partly tied with twine, dismembered just enough at the joints to let the wings flap around when she is waving her arms excitedly. The gull is wearing a reasonably well-tied noose. She carries a freakishly hook-curved length of sharpened, ocean-patinaed jagged metal attached to a stick, and has what served in better years as someone's wooden trencher strapped to one arm. Has two alternating settings: mumbling, or shrieking at the top of her lungs. Also one factory default setting: face down in a tide-pool with her ears occasionally giving spasmodic twitches.

Shriga's Awfully Pompous Priestess Song

Spoiler:

(Alternately near-whispered and shrieked, to no perceivable rhythm or tune)
Clever, cunning quick,
She teaches us every trick.
All slippery and slick
Fun toxic things to lick!
From Laaaaaaaaaaady Lastbreath!

All that we could wish:
Drowning in anguish,
Wood, dead things and fish
All make a tasty dish
From Laaaaaaaaaaady Lastbreath!

Drown-dead gulls and drown-dead men
Things to fix and use again!
(Shriga doesn't have to rhyme.)
Shriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiga!
Calls Laaaaaaaaaaady Lastbreath!

There is a Rogue Archetype called 'Trapsmith' in the APG, but it hasn't got the Architecture or Engineering skills. Perhaps our benefactor will let you swap 'Knowledge (Dungeoneering)' for 'Knowledge (Architecture)' or 'Knowledge (Engineering)' or some such like?

There's a suggested 'Tinker' with the traits 'Improvisational Equipment' and 'Master Craftsman' somewhere around here with a skill list like that.

Aha. Also a 'Trapsmith' Rogue in the same thread.

But it's all under 'houserules'.

From most of what I am seeing, depended on how wedded you are to the idea, you might just be better off picking a class that matches the effects you want and describing your spells/feats as clockwork/technomagic. Sorry.

There seems to be some steampunky/clockworky stuff in the Rhune Pathfinder supplement but I haven't got it, so I don't know beyond the illos online...

Adding skill in PF is very easy. A rogue gets 8+Int ranks per level, so 11 in your case. You can also add another 1 as Favored Class Bonus (rogue), or you can decide to spend the bonus as an additional hit point, your pick.

For skills that you are already trained in (the ones you have rank in) is very easy: add 1 of your 11 ranks to the ones you want to improve (I'd suggest Stealth, Acrobatics, Sleigh of Hands, Disable Device, Escape Artist, and the four Craft you have) Add +1 to all of them.. This mean we spent 9 ranks in improving skills you already know.

Learning a new skill is slightly different. Climb and Perception are class skill for you, so learning them gives you a bonus of +3 to them. This is how you figure out the final bonus:
1 rank + 3 (training) + the appropriate stat modifier.

So, Climb would be 1+3+Str modifier (0) = +4
Perception 1+3+ Wis mod (-1) = +3.

This mean we spent all our 11 ranks. Your choice is if you want to spend another 1 from the favored class bonus or if you want an extra hit point (I'd go for the hit point).

Please remember to copy your stats in Whosi character's page! This way James and us can easily access your stats during the game.


Male Efreeti, advanced manthing 45HD

So; if I understand this right; I can add +1 to the skills you mentioned AND get climb and perception as noted and one hit point? or is it add 1 to those skills or get climb and percept? I think the hit point is a good deal too.

will check back ;but will update assuming I got it right the first time.

Do any of my saves or attack bonus change at this level? I am not sure how much like D&D this Pathfinder tracks.

thanks much.

You get the pluses AND the new skills AND the hit point. Remember that you should get 5 more hit points regardless of this extra one due to the 2nd level.

You saves and attack go up to! Add +1 to both base attack and to the Reflex save.
You also get the Evasion class feature (if you manage to successfully save against some magical attacks that go against Reflexes, like fireball, you get no damage instead than half damage as it normally is).
Then there's your Rogue Talent you can choose. The list is long and you can just see it yourself here.

To have a general reference of the Pathfinder Rogue class, here's the SRD page for it.

Looks like you come from older D&D editions: I didn't realize that at first. Are you a veteran from AD&D?

Cool I will write it up, I can do it 4 times a day.

Alright, interest check!

I know I threw a curveball at you with the submersible, so let's see what you like, what you don't like and what you'd like to see. Throw me your wishlists and we'll see how many things I can fit into the game.

Just to give you an idea of what comes next: You're going to find the island that the skull spoke of, and being underwater for that journey will become a good thing. Eggs will hatch and we'll probably transition from being ship-based to island based for a time. I'm envisioning a treasure hunt/dungeon crawl with an eventual return to the ship, hopefully after the crew has made some much needed repairs. From there, it's open seas and I'm open to any ideas for what you want to do after the Island. I promise to keep the Lost plot lines to a minimum. Although, an ogre named Hurley would be pretty fun...


Male Efreeti, advanced manthing 45HD

so; is this going to be an underwater adventure for a while; might want to pick up an underwater skill or two if that is the plan; never done one so might be fun; definately something new.

nothing the matter on my end, am just trying to be true to my character type and skills; am not a up front warrior type so there hasnt been a lot for me to do yet that is very rogueish; am letting the wrriors shine their warrior stuff and giving support.

Valegrim:
That doesn't really answer my main concern. You're not responding to things that have happened. You're not reading the posts since the last time you acted. I can dig the idea that you want to play your character, but if you're going to continue in this PbP you need to read all the posts since your last post so that your actions fit with the situation.

Alright, let's sound off gobbos! What do you like, what do you not like, what would you like to see more of, what do you think you would like to do next?

Sovereign Court

I'm really enjoying it, I like the gonzo-goblin things (dinosaurs, cannibals, devil-worshippers, giant fish).

Goblins are super-sneaky, so I wouldn't mind a bit more stealth to be able to enjoy a sneaky party (rather than a single sneak in party).

Honestly, though, Crang is not really a pro-active character, he doesn't have the concentration, so it will be interesting to see where the others want to go. Crang is bound to follow.


M Goblin Druid 7

Loved the crazy goblin cannibals. I'm good with the sneak side as well, so far my only concern has been running out of spells super fast :P. Just need to pace myself more.

So things I'd like to see

goblin swashbuckling pirate attack on another boat
sewer run for food in city!
getting another pet dinosaur or two
Finding/founding a goblin city <-- Or trying to take over the city from We Be Goblins!
Trying to take over a small town like it's a major accomplishment....
LEVEL 5! ;)

Is everyone still here?
