How do you feel about this probably too strong Graveknight template? I'm eyeballing my stats and I think this could make for a solid Warpriest or Paladin.
Alternatively, a weird ground I could tread - and I do mean weird - is a Graveknight Ranger / Psychic, which gets me spells from Wisdom and Intelligence AND makes me perfectly fine at the smashing faces thing. Apparently, Psychic magic doesn't suffer arcane spell failure, so this could be a great way to play a full BAB full psychic caster riding a spooky mount of some kind (probably an Accursed Companion of some kind).
Alternatively... I could use the Ghost Rider cavalier archetype + the psychic class. This makes my mount undead too.
So, yeah: Paladin, Warpriest, Ranger/Psychic, or Cavalier/Psychic. Any thoughts?
(Honestly, despite my awesome stats that encourage full spellcasting... Graveknight Paladin, given permission to be Lawful Good, just sounds really appealing to me.)
EDIT: Oh, wow. Nevermind the paladin, there's multiple paladins already. Unless I specifically went for a mounted paladin route and focused on being the spooky character on a horse. I suppose that'd be my focus in any event: combat from the back of a horse. Ghost Rider or Sword of Valor. And maybe I need to find a way to make my Lay on Hands work on me despite Lay on Hands being positive
energy.
EDIT 2: Also, if Graveknight is too powerful, I'd be happy with Skeletal Champion or Dread Skeleton. I'm trying to avoid templates that hunger for living flesh / souls / whatever. The only other template that stands out to me is the Death Knight template, and I'd definitely, again, ask for permission to be Good-aligned and potentially play a paladin. Human Death Knight Paladin that can't use Lay on Hands on itself could be really cool (and potentially disastrous).
Mines Marla and she's already in. And I see it now. Multiclassed on one side. Thought it might have been a typo. Or a really weird gestalt I'd never heard of.

Those are the ones that are making it.
Now Inlaa my other game seems to have lost their tank, would you mind taking their place?
Which game is that? Is it the City of Drow one? I'd like to do some more setting study and the like before I make my decision, but possibly. And I'd love to get a good look at the other characters too and get a feel for what classes would fit the given setting best.
I do need to check: 1/day posting fine? I can do that pretty easily and have been doing so in all my games (with the sole exception of a game where the GM's activity has slackened due to real life issues).
And I will say that generally speaking I'd just really like to try out an undead character of some kind (since you're allowing templates in return for levels), so I'm interested in knowing what templates you'll allow.

it is the city of the Drow, the link I put up earlier head all the info for the setting thus far. The once a day is fine. Just take off I've level for those templates.
YAY, I am SOOOO ready to get into action with my Witch
Same here, save the Witch part.
So when do we start?
Soon
