is my back-story satisfatory?
You know I'm starting to wonder with a martial training course is going to be added to the schools class roster. If lynora or DB3 wanted me to teach it instead of the magical theory, Salis could do it. When Salis was played as a character in a table game he studied many different combatants and was great at picking out the areas of improvement and good qualities from observing them train and fight. Besides it would be funny to have required reading in the martial combat classes as well.
Well, according to Lyn with what I showed her, I may or may not have Krisilanni ready, but I don't know if I have things recorded properly on the alias. If people know what I need to document on here, please tell me so I have things absolutely right. I have most things recorded on a Word document, so I know most of what I have for him, at least.

I'm thinking LN (with good tenancies) Diamond (template) Peri-Blooded Aasimar, sorcerer 16(linorm) gsaulted with psion (telepath) pyrokeneticist and thrallheard.
I'll get back story next, but he has a robe of arcane heritage. and either permanence-ed or goggles of arcane sight.
definitely the permanence not the item, I use the alternate spell like and gave up daylight for spell resistance,
he got about 20 str, 15 dex, 14 con 12 wis 16 int 28 cha
he is here looking for power, he has tried as many paths to it as he can, his former master was killed by a litch in front of him when he was about lvl 5, the litch gave a speach on how spells aren't power, power is power, no matter the form, my character took this to heart and plans on shoving that speech down his throat... metaphorically
you can make those words reality... if you make a truespeaker... words are power with them....
btw if you want a lich hunter you want the paladin I'll bring in after Treisdan plays for a while....
of all the new people (myself included)who are the new students and who are new teachers?
I am hoping to be a new student
I'm going to be the best of the new students. Sorry, it's just a fact; maybe you can be the second-best, but I'm just going to be running circles around everyone. No one can compete with me. Well, they can compete, but they'll lose, of course.
...Or something like that.

This game isn't about who can make the "best" character, it's about having fun, making friends, and telling a story...
Just being in character ahead of time, man. :p
One can only lose if one competes... -Good
I'm Second Best? Fine! Dominate Person... -Evil

Yeah, you're definitely a student, in the newly built elementary school even if your age is the same as the last time I looked. We ended up with so many younger characters that we had to expand the school a bit. :)

Sounds good so far. Psychologically damaged overly powerful kid....yeah, he'll fit in just fine. :)
yes the age is the same.
just that much more time to get better than Krisilanni Rashira at something... even if it is just holding my breath longer.

If people know what I need to document on here, please tell me so I have things absolutely right. I have most things recorded on a Word document, so I know most of what I have for him, at least.
I'm planning to spend a good chunk of time tomorrow working on game stuff (mostly on writing the fast-forward to wrap up the current term and set things up for the start of the new term) so if you don't already have things settled by then I can type up what you sent me into a format that you can easily cut/paste into your character profile.
Ah, I would very much appreciate that, Lyn, and will have to be a good boy to everything you say I'm supposed to be a good boy for. Or something.

There's always been a martial training course in the curriculum. Many of them actually. Though we are currently without a blades instructor. If that's something you would be interested in you are more than welcome. :)
i like it. I'm playing a non-magic character because i tend to want to play something out of place.
There are other non-magic characters, though they often have special abilities as well. It's a school for gifted children and that comes in many forms. :)
I would like to join as a human with no magical capability despite two highly magical parents. gestalt fighter/15, duelist/9, rouge/5, monk(martial artist)/1.
He is at the school due to a favor his parents called in with the headmaster. He hates being here and not being useful, so he does whatever he can to help. he knows more then most magi about spell craft, due to intense magical schooling from his parents. He helps magus in training, and any magi or sorcerer who wants to be competent in hand to hand fighting. He even can help with magic theory rather often. despite all his work, his current best is casting mage hand 3/day, and magic missile 2/day. honestly, he gave up on himself being able to cast magic and helps others. Due to his knowledge in magic and ability to avoid most anything, he is very effective on magi, and in general can spar with the willing.
dex 26, int 20, wis 27, str 12, con 14, cha 14.
hp 143.
magic item- +3 merciful rapier; cold iron
non magic items- masterwork
ac- 31. (10+8(dex)+5(int)+8(wis))
touch ac- 31.
flat footed- 18.
flat foot touch- 18.
other possessions-
a robe.
seemingly pointless goggles.
all standard gear for a student.
I'm not sure if this character is intended as a teacher or a student. We can definitely work with this, I'm just trying to clarify since it seems like he's described as teaching stuff. Definitely sounds like he'd be a good sparring partner for Sadie though. (She's the captain of the fencing team.)
Rosa is a Teacher , if you can call an sentient exmilitery peace of hardware that , just don't expecter her to teach home-eeconomics .

Lol. If it helps any, the last PE teacher is an earthbender/ tech genius. Her idea of a light workout involved tossing boulders at students. :)
She's still around, but these days she's responsible for school security...well, that and building armaments for the resistance. :)
first an earthbender now an airbender what next...the Avatar?

We have a waterbender too. Her name is Morrivan. And the firebirds might as well be firebenders....yeah, I'm pretty sure all we're missing is the Avatar. :P
Just a general shout out to anyone who's good at this particular thing, but if anyone would like to help me finish picking my spells for the oracle half, I'm open to any and all suggestions. Just want to hear from more than one person; it's how I make my best decisions. Don't ask why; I don't know, either.

oh yeah I've always wanted to make a character like that, but could never find a DM to let me play him, not this powerful persay but this kind of mindset of a character, someone extremely powerful, but broken. a manipulater, one who, if his manipulations fail always has the option of destroying the opposition directly (or at least attempting and having a good shot at it)
it's sorcerer 16 psion (telepath) 3 elocater 2, thrallherd 1, pyrokineticist 10.spell resistance=18, it's not much but it's there
immune to fire, and ice,
resistance 5 electricity, acid, and sonic
he is 6 foot 3.5
he has a psi-crystal
he has a masterwork mithril (adaminite edge work) bastard sword with which he is proficient, he plans on making it litch bane later
he has diamond flesh with metal looking veins (not like blood veins like veins in rock, it's from the celestial flesh feat)
he has metal wings
he originally planed on being a kenetisist but his encounter with the litch showed he can't just blast away his problems he so far has had one encounter with the guy and the litch could barely remember fighting his master as it was too insignificant to him, my character barely survived, mostly because the litch didn't care enough to properly kill him.
I haven't thought of a dietity for him, any ideas other than Nethis/Mystra?

You just keep telling yourself that...sure it's a lie, but I'm sure it makes you feel better about your poor pathetic existence...
my character was like that, but he got over that (or at least tried to) around lvl 5 with the litch. he still thinks that way, subconciously, thinking none, bar possibly that litch or a dragon or a powerful outerplanier could stop him, and only possibly at that, but he tries not to show it, he tries (a little) not to even think it, he does anyway, he is roughly 37, he looks somewhere between 16-19
you can make those words reality... if you make a truespeaker... words are power with them....
btw if you want a lich hunter you want the paladin I'll bring in after Treisdan plays for a while....
paladin isn't an option for him unless you were referring to an ally in which case he will be all up on that, he is a telepath/thrallherd with a 28 cha he will try to charm him first, maybe some not-choosing-to subconscious mental thrall thing then if he finds it necessary as in verbal charm failed and he finds the paladin enough of an asset he will dominate or charm magically or psionically, LN, I can't change the alignment to strict LG for paladin , he would violate that oath all over the place for power, that and after thinking on it a bit, he may almost have Evil tenancies by now, LN, halfway to LG was his alignment before the incident, but now there are small Evil tendencies now, still lawful
thoughtell me more on this truespeaker....
There's always been a martial training course in the curriculum. Many of them actually. Though we are currently without a blades instructor. If that's something you would be interested in you are more than welcome. :)
Salis can teach the blade training if you are wanting him too or he can be the magical theory teacher. I'll let you and db3 choose which one since it still hasn't been announced formally. Ether one he has experience with so it's all good. Just don't expect him to be any good with a sword.
of all the new people (myself included)who are the new students and who are new teachers?
I am hoping to be a new student
Salis here is a new teacher. Ether magical theory or martial blade training will be what he teaches maybe both. We'll see what is chosen for him.

It's ok you just need a sounding bord, first ask yourself (and tell us) what do you want, primarily and secondarily your spells to achieve
my character wants blast and mind control spells followed by battlefield control, he is very combat oriented in his spell selection.second other than 'blast' spells don't get new spells that do things that you can already do,
third, what's your curse/mystery
Well, it's mostly buffs and undead hate, really, though a few cures and inflicts to heal alies and myself, as the black blood treats me like an undead. No curse, as being a black blooded oracle doesn't allow for that, and I wouldn't really use it anyway. The mystery is Battle, though. Was going to be Spellscar, because it just looks rather fun, but Battle seemed to fit better. I've already chosen a few spells, but no need to really clutter up the thread.
I can't help much on the oracle spells since I rarely play one above level 2 or 3 (usually because the game dies)
but my carrion crown game shows promise in the future of getting further.
anyway I usually pick a theme and chosose my spells around that theme.
here is an example I have that I am using (still in the audition part of game selection)
or -- from Mug's carrion crown game
Everyone gets in. I'm the main GM, so I am the one who approves characters. The game has been in progress for a good long while, but new folks will be able to start posting in it Monday or Tuesday. I really do recommend that you read all of the stuff under campaign info. A lot of your questions were answered there. What you have for your character so far is okay, but I need to see a few key pieces of info before you're ready to jump in. The new player primer should detail which stats are needed. You're most of the way there, so it shouldn't be a big deal. It's really just AC and saves I need from you.
Is this any help ?THE BRIEF HISTORY OF DRAGONSTAR EMPIRE Im all a buz to start
Is this any help ?THE BRIEF HISTORY OF DRAGONSTAR EMPIRE Im all a buz to start
Yeah, that is really helpful. I've just been making this stuff up off the cuff without much in the way of background. (Although anything in the game thread trumps anything there for purposes of the game.) This gives a lot more context for me to work with. :)

AC is 29
flat foot 26(10+6(armor, mithril shirt)+10 (natural))
touch 13, (10+3(dodge)) it's not great, though he sometimes augments it with spells
flatfoot touch 10, like almost all non monks
when flying (which is usually) he has a +2 incite bonus to hit
I'm changing his 15 dex to 16,
he has arcane armor training lowering spell failure by 10%, due to it being made of mithril that means 0%
if allowed I'd like to change the simitar like natural weapon to bastard sword, but am fine with the stated armsword.
I'll get back to you on the saves, just give me a bit to figure how the gsault affects the standard sorcerer

Yeah, I have picked the theme, but I still have a lot of slots left open for all the spells I could pick, and might as well have a few that don't fit the mold just in case, right? Not that I intend to be much of a spellcaster, in all honesty; it's mostly just about using the blood for all sorts of purposes, mostly offense.
I also am eager to start things up, but hopefully the spells and little things are all fixed up and prepared. Then again, I'm sure I can finalize everything while posting, but I like it when I'm prepared ahead of time.
i am going to be a student. "teaching" is me trying to help anyone who needs it learn. also, minor edit to my character, int 24, not 20, bringing my ac to 33 as a side note, but the main difference is that he is minor anti-magic. he has 7+ HD spell and power resistance, but he can never actually lower this. (there is no template for this, this is more a request.) the reason why is unlike normal, when he was laden with magic in the womb, his body learned to reject it instead of accept it.

Ah, okay, I get it. He has a penchant for tutoring his fellow students. And I'm okay with that trait. Makes healing interesting. He'll likely be making frequent use of the nanites. :)

It might help if you change the flavor of a few spells to match the blood theme better. Spiritual Weapon, for instance, could be shaped blood you are controlling from afar.
Yeah, talked about that with Monkey, and figured that Instant Armor could be like that. Not sure what else could be like that, though; I like the idea of controlling blood from afar, but that's less blood in my body, and anemia is not fun. Well, could be enough for a small dagger or something, and that wouldn't be too bad.
well, if everything is satisfactory, i'm ready to start whenever you can introduce me. oh, and a word of warning, i wont be here next Friday, Saturday, and probably Sunday, due to a trip I'm going on. this shouldn't happen more then once a month though.
anyway, my name is Adon Derro, and I'm ready to go!

No worries about the absence (although the heads up is appreciated). One of the good things about having such a large cast of characters is that it's easy to work around it when someone is tied up with real life for a bit. :)
Lyn,
You have a PM from me to check over my character.
alright! this is gonna be AWESOME!
|
|
alright! this is gonna be AWESOME!

blind sense
dark vision 120

this is going to be sweet, ready whenever
as one final note, how are traits handled, do we get any, do we get 2, 4, one of each catagory?
if two, I going with Hedge Magician and Havoc of the Society
Okay, everything looks good, Lord Foul II. :)
how do i get introduced?
The new term will be starting in the next day or so. New students will get to show up then. Don't worry, I'll make sure to let you know as soon as it's okay to show up.
alright.
