The Emerald Spire: Chaos party (Inactive)

Game Master Captain collateral damage

Emerald Spire Superdungeon, Chaotic party from Thornkeep, Level 1



My group is currently missing a player for the Emerald Spire Superdungeon. The party is chaotic level 1, and operating out of thornkeep, which, like any good river kingdoms town, is almost totally lawless. The party has a goblin oracle, hobgoblin antipaladin, and catfolk rogue.
Character Creation: 20 point buy ability scores
Any Paizo Class, but you must use the unchained verson if there is one, except for monks, who may use either.
Any race of 15 RP or less.

Discussion
Original Recruitment The two parties (law and chaos, this is chaos) are now separate, so don't worry about PvP.


Seems like these guys could use an arcane caster, there.
I'd be happy to roll a Bladebound Magus :D


Name: Arduino the Lesser
Class: Wizard (Spirit Binder) (Evocation (Admixture))
Race: Male Human
Alignment: N
Backstory: The late-in-life child of his elderly archmage father, Arduino bristled with excitement when he found out he would finally be permitted to leave his studies with his father and explore the outside world. Then, two weeks later, he was recalled as his father foresaw imminent death for himself, and needed his son to help figure out how to save and preserve his life. Eventually the moment came as his father was in another room, working with Arduino's borrowed familiar; he heard a great whooshing and the sound of terrifying laughter, and the smell of fiery brimstone. Eventually, the doors fluttered open, and out came Arduino's familiar, now harshly imprinted with his father's spirit. Following his directions, Arduino has ventured into the staging grounds of the Emerald Spire's delving, hoping to find some way to restore his father to life.
Personality: Studious, nervous, young, awkward, naive. Nursing a rapidly growing resentment of his father. Grieving for his familiar, hoping she'll be returned if his father is resurrected.
Description: Young, short brown hair with a rapidly out-growing severe haircut, brown eyes and pale face, plain robes with a heavy satchel.
Familiar: Thrush wth brown feathers and dark eyes, light-feather marks around eyes in the shape of a pair of glasses. Harsh, imperious, elderly tone of voice. Arrogant.

The party's lawful counterpart has also lost a member. They have a half-orc arcanist, a dwarf monk, and a human druid.

welp two of my games just sort of fell apart, stopping and everything so i'm on the lookout for a new game so color me interested.

Neutral good Kitsune Shaman/Brawler type character. Brawler being the first level, and then water Shaman later on for some of the hexes

I already had a background written up for this character so here it is, just need to respec for this campaigns build

Background:

Appearance

Concept

1) Essentially she is an Anti-Nihilist, this means that she believes the world sucks, and that won't change unless someone goes to change it.

2)She spent much time outside in nature, specifically she enjoy's being around water, she grew up in a misty forest/swamp type area.

3)Her families death and her being driven out of her homeland has lead her to try and find a new place to call home.

4)Many consider her beautiful even by kitsune standards, although she has few if any people she call's true friends and tends to dismiss most people.

5) She want's to be seen as a hero, as such she helps people without generally expecting reward.

Goals

1)To be viewed by some as a hero, or be admired

2) To find a place to call home

Secrets

1) Kara knows she is being hunted by The man who killed her family, she does not know why. Her family as was renown as Hunter's.

2) What she does not know is her family hunted people remorselessly, hence why they were killed.

Relations

1)Ro'kurk Blood-Axe A half orc who lead the mob that killed her family. Kara's father killed Rokurk's Wife and son. He is hunting Kara, knowing her still alive.

2)Narine, a traveling nixie that Kara would play with when she was young. She often acts as a mentor, teaching Kara bit of magic or giving her information.

3)Kara's Father is the biggest influence in her life, he taught her how to fight and to respect nature.

Memories

1) I remember my training, it was hard. I was taught to be swift. Faster than the wind, more graceful than the waters. My fire needed to be better. Father wanted me to carry on the family legacy...

2) The water was cool, morning, mist covered the lake. I could see things below the surface, i dived in after to see what it was...

3) the fire and flames heated the air, shouts and noises. An angry orc cutting my family down. Men with pitchforks and torches chased me as i ran into the fog, A Tail Blade given to me by my father strapped on, my only protection ...

Background Story

I grew up in a misty forest, by a lake near a small town. I always wanted to visit the town but father always told me no, saying the forest was our home were we belonged. Father, Mother, everyone they would all leave on hunts, sometimes gone for days leaving me alone. I was to young to go with them.

It was during this time i met Narine, i was bored, sitting by the lake. I saw something underneath the surface swimming, So i dived in out of boredom. We swam back and forth, almost dancing. it became almost a routine thing, the two of us hanging out by the lake, Sometimes we would sing, other times play fight. A hobby i grew to enjoy.

I grew old enough for father to begin teaching me what he called the Art of the hunt, taught me about our peoples art of deception, why i was special. My fur always had been white, father said i had been blessed. He gave me a Tail blade, a series of metal plates and blades connected to my tail one of the few features Kitsune always possess even when in humanoid form. An odd weapon, but nonetheless the weapon of my family.


Ok everything looks good so far. Could people please say which group they would like to be in? (law or chaos). I'll obviously know if you're lawful or chaotic, but both characters I've seen so far are neutral.


I'll go with the lawful group just because i've decided to switch to brawler oracle and having two oracles in a group would be weird,imo.


Bump. Still waiting for stats from Ammon, side for Arduino, and stats, fluff, and side from ElegantlyWasted


Oh, sorry. Thought it was clear from the fact that I completed my posting before you mentioned the lawful side opening.


oh sorry im going to have to drop i got alot going on


I'll submit got the spot in the lawful party. Character in progress

Does spell specialisation apply to wands? I can't see why it wouldn't, the feat doesn't say anything about it being restricted to spells you cast through your own slots.

If you agree, I'd like to pick up a wand of magic missile with a couple charges, for when I inevitably run out of spells.


Sure, I think Spell specializtion can apply to wands.


Apologies for not submitting my lawful character yet, something unexpected came up and I've had no time to finish writing him up. It'll be a tiefling fighter of the lawful alignment.

Is it a bad idea to have the alignment be anything but good? Ie would a lawful evil alignment (greedy personality) type fit into the group well or would it be better to have a LN alignment? With a low intelligence and charisma I think LE fits the character better, but I'm all for getting along with the other players still


LE would probably work, after all your operating out of a town under the control of hellknights. :)


All right, Sallera the sorceress, hopefully fitting into the chaos legion.

Picture
Background Sallera has long chafed under the strictures of life at a hell knight outpost. She's recently discovered her powers, and feel like leveraging them into a way out of town, preferably to a better life.

She figures that getting rich will let her get to a place where she can more or less do whatever the hell she wants, but the number of ways for a young girl to get there are limited around these parts, and so she's up for a dungeon delve to remedy these sad circumstances.

Besides, there's new stuff to explore down there! Stuff to kill! She'll soon find out that she quite enjoys visiting magical violence on socially acceptable targets.


Here is Vokin tiefling fighter for the lawful group. I'll work up a better background a little later but Vokin is simply a mercenary by trade before he ran into Signifer DiViri and began his training to become a Hellknight.


It occurs to me that the lawful group lacks a trapfinder. Just a thought.

I'll be making a selection when the party gets to a point where it makes sense for them to find a replacement character. Also chaos characters should now be level 2.

Alister grew up in a quiet elven enclave in Absolam surrounded by a community of merchants. He was trained from an early age to take up the family trade of alchemy but started showing strong tendency toward more magical study. His family and community took up a collection and sent him to the Academy of Secrets where he studied hard and learned under the instruction of some of the greatest minds of magic. Since he graduated the first level classes he has returned to Absolam where he continues to work as an alchemist in his parents shop as well as look for a new adventure to take when a person wearing a strange device called a wayfinder walked into the shop and did some recruiting Alister thought that sounded just fine and agreed to take their test.

For the Chaos group I have a Barbarian who will second level go cleric and then the rest barbarian. I will post both with crunch and backgrounds shortly

Racial Abilities:

+2 intimidate/+2 sense motive
Celestial Resistance: Aasimars have acid resistance 5, cold resistance 5, and electricity resistance 5

Special Abilities:
Domains: Community, Plant subdomain, Growth
Calming Touch (Sp): You can touch a creature as a standard action to heal it of 1d6 points of nonlethal damage + 1 point per cleric level. This touch also removes the fatigued, shaken, and sickened conditions (but has no effect on more severe conditions). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier 2 = 5/day.

Enlarge (Su): As a swift action you can enlarge yourself for 1 round, as if you were the target of the enlarge person spell. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier 2 = 5/day.

Channeling negative energy: causes a burst that affects all creatures of one type (either undead or living) in a 30-foot radius centered on the cleric. The amount of damage dealt or healed is equal to 1d6 points of damage plus 1d6 points of damage for every two cleric levels beyond 1st (2d6 at 3rd, 3d6 at 5th, and so on). Creatures that take damage from channeled energy receive a Will save to halve the damage. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the cleric's level + the cleric's Charisma modifier 0 = 11. Creatures healed by channel energy cannot exceed their maximum hit point total—all excess healing is lost. A cleric may channel energy a number of times per day equal to 3 + her Charisma modifier 0 = 3. This is a standard action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. A cleric can choose whether or not to include herself in this effect.

Rage: A barbarian can call upon inner reserves of strength and ferocity, granting her additional combat prowess. Starting at 1st level, a barbarian can rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Constitution modifier 3 = 7/day. At each level after 1st, she can rage for 2 additional rounds. Temporary increases to Constitution, such as those gained from rage and spells like bear's endurance, do not increase the total number of rounds that a barbarian can rage per day. A barbarian can enter rage as a free action. The total number of rounds of rage per day is renewed after resting for 8 hours, although these hours do not need to be consecutive.

While in rage, a barbarian gains a +4 morale bonus to her Strength and Constitution, as well as a +2 morale bonus on Will saves. In addition, she takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class. The increase to Constitution grants the barbarian 2 hit points per Hit Dice, but these disappear when the rage ends and are not lost first like temporary hit points. While in rage, a barbarian cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration.

A barbarian can end her rage as a free action and is fatigued after rage for a number of rounds equal to 2 times the number of rounds spent in the rage. A barbarian cannot enter a new rage while fatigued or exhausted but can otherwise enter rage multiple times during a single encounter or combat. If a barbarian falls unconscious, her rage immediately ends, placing her in peril of death.

They sacrificed to her and lived in their small community until a goodly ruler came to power. His government saw the religion as evil and the stone giants as enemies and monsters and attacked his people. His people struck back and planned and executed an insurrection against the government attempting to overthrow first the local government and then he himself. All of his family and people were killed, and he was knocked unconscious during the battle, only to awake in the the lands of Cheliax a slave. Soon after he escaped and made his way until he found the lands near the super dungeon where he learned of the adventures to be had and has entered seeking riches and glory.


Someone voted for me! And someone else agreed! :D

I'm totally stalking the chaos threads, by the by. I hope that's not a problem.

I'd vote for you, and no, not just because of your character portrait. Though it is a bit.


Dropping out.


It looks like the chaos side is going w the sorcerer. I could go vengence paladin for lawful instead of wizard as you guys look like you need melee. Check out my submissions and if you want to give me a chance I will whip something up


It feels as if the Lawful side kinda ground to a halt :D


I am still very interested if you are looking for recruits for either game, please let me know by message. Thanks


ok I will reluctantly be stepping down from consideration as I have been asked to step into a long running campaign. Thanks for consideration.


Is this recruitment still open, or has someone been selected already for both lawful and chaotic groups?


No choices yet


The GM hasn't been around for a week or so, though.
