The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

This is a high level rules light game set in a school for magical kids, kinda a mash-up of Soul Eater, Harry Potter, and X-Men. :)

And a bear no less. They are higher on the lycan food chain :p


Male Drow (noble) 14 Ranger

Only thing that's somewhat tricky at this point is Ryuzo has the ability to sense lycans and other zoanthropes within a certai distance...
So when she's starting to unlock that part of her, it should register. Right now, he's jsut going to play it by ear, as she hasn't registered up to this point...

Ghalen is bored to tears. Right now he's trying to uncover the truth, whether it's what he wants to hear or not. This is why he keeps scouring the history section in the library. If this doesn't pan out, he'll probably approach Jiminy for somethign to do...


Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

For some reason I keep thinking of coke commercials when I try to picture Nala as a polar bear. :P

Yeah, that part of Nala is only just now starting to come to the surface so I'm not sure how that will work. First few attempts may be awkward. :)

Whatever info Ghalen is looking for, he can find it in that library. Including restricted Empire archives. Gotta love magical libraries.


Things Vai and Nala have in common:

  • A traumatic, abusive past
  • Fear of being touched
  • Can transform into huge things.
  • Have had at least 1 wardrobe malfunction related to said transformations
  • Have magical powers related to their abuse figure.

    They really should start a group.


  • Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    They're even more similar than I realized! Yep, definitely need to start a support group. :)


    I don't think Vai and Nala have ever even met... not even during the lycan uprising.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    You're right. Well, they will meet in the near future...should be interesting. :)


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Kidlet came home sick from school at lunchtime, so now I have to go take him to the doctor. So I'll be on sporadically today. He's in that mood where he wants to be fussed over.


    Male Drow (noble) 14 Ranger

    No worries at all. Mommy takes precedence over DM ;)


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Well, it's good I took him to the doctor. Kidlet has strep throat. Glad we caught it early.


    Male Drow (noble) 14 Ranger

    Indeed!

    Quite possibly the only school more overpowered than Avalon. :P

    That said, go for it. I love that manga so I'm pretty familiar with the material.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    I have no idea how to implement it, though. It's a pretty unique thing, and the closest I can think of to use is a magus, but that's not really the full Magia Erebea feel, spellstriking.All I know is that I want to do something like this, I have no idea where to go from here. T_T


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Well, think about the mechanics of what it's supposed to do. List it out. We don't have to copy the mechanics of another class, just make power levels equivalent. I know what my impression of it is, but I don't know exactly which aspects you're looking at. Once I know that, I can definitely help make something that will work.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    What I'm really looking at is the ability to absorb spells, taking on the characteristics of said spells. Eg, if lightning bolt were to be absorbed, we'd see an increase in speed, and extra damage in the form of electricty damage. I'd also be interested in the possibility of losing control, and having a demonic sort of power take over. It fits well with such massive modifications to the body as happen during Magia Erebea.

    Looking around, I found that someone put down a (very) rough conversion idea. Keep in mind, it's incredibly nonspecific, but it's the only thing I've found.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Yes, that seems like a good idea. The closest thing I can find to that idea currently is the psionic power, energy conversion, which really doesn't fully realize the concept. Absorbing spells should probably work a lot like dispel or counter spell.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Continued looking around, and I've found a potential build, although it's incredibly vague, adn I've got to get some books from a friend. It uses some Bo9S stuff, like the Swordsage, specifically the unarmed variant proposed at the end of the swordsage section. I'm looking through it, I'll be sure to pop in if I find something that might work.

    Also, I was talking about Absorbing the spells of the user, not necessarily as Negi's power-capturing magic circle thing, although i found that really cool as well.


    Swordsage, with the unarmed variant seems like it could work. As for the the demon taking over I would say take some frenzied berserker levels along with a level of barbarian or two with fiend totem.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Yeah, I was considering that. I'm looking at unarmed Swordsage, Jade Pheonix Mage on one side, Duskblade, Enlightened Fist, Abjurant Champion on the other, so I don't really see where Frenzied Berserker would fit in, although i could get a level or two of barbarian. Still looking for potential classes, but it looks like I've got what I need. Do we have any teacher openings?

    Also, I still need to learn the Stance/Maneuver system. Going over that now.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    There are always teacher openings. :)

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Enlightened Fist is rather unnecessary. I don't think i'll be including it. I can fit barbarian, and maybe some Frenzied Berserker there.

    What to teach...


    That is a lot of multiclassing, reminds me of what I had to do for a Guts character idea lol.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    This is, by far, the most multiclassing I've ever even considered. The combination of multiclassing and gestalt is rather intimidating to me, though. Gonna be a lot of organization needed.

    Edit: Apparently some spellchecking, too.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Well, you can also feel free to do a mashup to keep things from getting too complicated. If all you need from a class is a class feature or two see if there are features of another class you are already taking that can be exchanged for it.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Hmm... actually, I was considering taking Spellwarp Assassin for Warp spell, and Enlightened Fist for Hold Ray, but have no idea what to swap for. I could do completely without Armored Mage and Armor Proficiency, but I'm not sure if that would be an adequate swap, (My gut instinct is no) nor am I sure what else to swap for.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    I think your gut instinct is correct, especially on armor proficiency. It just isn't as good of an ability as what you'd be swapping it for. Maybe the swap plus a feat though.


    I found the Guts character, he has levels in fighter, barbarian, Hellreaver, Frenzied Berserker, Ranger, and Stalker of Kharash. Frenzied berserker was mostly for flavor though.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Sure, I'll give up a feat for it, if that's alright with you. Do you have a preference for what level feat would be given up?

    Also, do you mind if I count Mage Armor as an abjuration effect for the purpose of Abjurant Champion? It seems odd to me that it wouldn't be, but it's an Evocation, if I'm not mistaken. :/

    Edit:Sorry, it's a conjuration. Still not abjuration, though.

    Edit 2: :O Shield and Mage Armor aren't even on the spell list. That's so disappointing.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Feats are feats. No need to worry about level. It tends to auto correct since losing a low level feat means taking longer to qualify for prereqs.

    I'm fine with counting mage armor as abjuration. It really should be if it isn't.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Do you mind, then, if I add shield and mage armor to the spell list? I'm surprised they aren't, and didn't realize it until right before you posted.

    I'm good with that. I doubt very much that those two spells are going to cause things to become overpowered. :D

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Jeez, I should've looked at the spell list prior. There are almost no AoE spells, making Warp Spell practically useless. The fact that all of the AoEs are low-level makes it even more so.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    So.... I won't need Warp Spell, or even, i don't think, Hold Ray. I would, however, like to add some variety with the spell list. The spell list is incredibly small, so if you don't mind, some that I can think of off the top of my head that I would like to add are Force Punch, Force Hook Charge, and Dimension door to the list. That, and maybe fly. Frigid touch wouldn't be bad either, but I can't really think of any others.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Okay. Those make sense to me based on the source material.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Sounds good. Level 22 total okay with you? And is there currently an unarmed combat teacher?


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    22 is fine.

    Err....trying to remember....I think the only ones were PE teachers. And Aananda is not up for teaching unarmed combat anymore. Or PE for that matter. Security and tech development are full time jobs already. So unless I'm forgetting someone then no, we don't already have a teacher for that.

    The Exchange

    Male Human Bard 1/Barbarian 1

    Well then, I think I've found my niche. Now, to build him. This may take a while. Usually, I use Hero Lab, but I can't exactly do that for this.


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    I had to use my phone just to access the site today. Not sure why, but I can load every other page just fine. It's only paizo that is so slow the browser times out before it can load. So my posting today may be sporadic at best.


    I am having a similar problem.


    Male Kobold Expert 6/Slayer 8

    Since I have yet to get a new laptop, what might be best is to assume unless otherwise stated that Vakkler is on vacation. There's just no way I can keep up with the fast posting right now. XD


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Given the info that came up during Michael's interview about his mental issue, now solved, perhaps Vakkler was asked to take a brief sabbatical? He was obviously having emotional difficulties during the whole episode. I doubt they would ever fire him, but letting him take a break would be reasonable. Genosuke can take over his classes until he returns.

    s'ok got vicodin


    Female awww, but that would be telling unknown

    Well, I hope that works better for you than me...The one time I took it I don't recall if it helped with pain on account of it knocking me unconscious. I can't take anything stronger than motrin. But I'm told that vicodin is good stuff. :)
