Alternate Rules I will use- Performance Combat, Words of power can be researched, but not started with. Called Shots can be made if you take Weapon Finesse or Precise Shot feats. Piece Meal Armor rules will apply in arena-type settings only. I will use Hero Points also, having a character background linking your character to the Harbingers will grant you 1 to start.


Vital Info:
AC: 19, touch 13, FF 16; F/R/W: +5/+4/+6; HP: 26/26; Init: +3
Skills 1:
Acrobatics +0, Climb -3, Diplomacy +13, Handle Animal +9 (+11 with Reafan), Heal +2, Intimidate +11

Xara's background has been updated to include reference to Arodeth and the Harbringers. Please advise if it is acceptable, as I don't know either Arodeth or the Harbringers well enough to take too many liberties.

It is acceptable, good job.


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

Was thinking of taking the Judgement Surge feat from UM.

However, the feat's description has a different pre-req than the preview list. The former requires one to have the Judgement class feature, while the latter says you must also have Judgement 2/day.

Also, do I need to worship Aroden? or would it be ok if I worshiped Calistria?

You can worship who ever, I will allow you to take that feat since you probably would have it by now, you just do not remeber.

Well, I'd like to have my other 1st level feat be something I can make use of now. So if Judgement Surge isn't something I can use currently, due to this memory loss we're suffering from, I would rather pick something useable by a normal 1st level character.

No, what I am saying is that you can use it now, you just do not know why you can.

Oh, ok. I thought you meant I had it, but don't remember I had it, so I don't know I can use it...or something. Thanks Nimon

Also, how are we doing HP? I figured Max+Con, which is standard, but obviously I change that.

I will be gone most of the day today playing a house game. I will post when I return. Hopefully belros posts in the gameplay tab. If he hasn't by that time, Tirion is up. I will repeat this in the recruitment tab.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

I know that I am not in this campaign yet, still crossing my fingers. However, in looking at the other characters, the Inquisitor, I think it is Akor Scourgebane, is Neutral Good, but worships Calistria. I am not sure about whether the DM is allowing variations or whether Inquisitors have greater latitude than clerics, but Calistria is CN, and a normal cleric would have to be within one alignment step of CN --> CG, CE, N or CN. Other than that have fun all, hopefully I will be able to join you, just waiting my time.

If I do get in, let me know whether I should start as a cleric or a wizard -- or if the party build requires something completely different.


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

I can easily change my alignment to match my deity. I chose my alignment before my deity, not knowing if I could worship Cal or not.


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

Out of sheer curiosity, how do you feel about 3PP material, specifically SGG's Inquisitor Judgements??

I am totally fine playing a normal Inquisitor, but playing the alternate class in there, the Justicar, would be more fitting to my concept.

I understand if its not allowed, just thought I'd ask, just in case.

Ps,
So far this game is really fun and hella interesting, especially with the little hints about our past. I check in all the time to see if there's any new posts lol.

Me too. I can't stand the waiting =). I have a feeling this combat is going to be really hard. I'm a total gimp until level 3 because a scimitar is not a light weapon so my weapon finesse can't play out ;). Not to mention I have no spells.

That brings me to another point, would divine spells work out here?


No divine spell, or even supernatural abilities. It is basicly like haveing antimagic zone on all the time.

Sorry Akor, In this campaign I want to keep it paizo only. I will allow you to "research" spells and abilities though and maybe then we can come up with something more in line with what you have in mind.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

I apologize for the delay. Will have my character finished in the morning. Have two small boys and spent about 8 hours with them - cuts into time to put a character together.


Female Human(Azlanti Pure Blood) Wizard(Metal Elementalist)/2 - Cleric/3

Here is Tirion's base character - need to put the work into skills/traits/feats, will get that done tomorrow morning. Will then post and join the campaign. Thanks.

Also make a back story linking you to Arodeth of the Harbingers and you will get 1 hero point.

I'm sorry I fell of the grid, troubles with the internet connection at the library and with sickness at home made me unable to post. I don't know if you replaced me or I'm still in. If I'm out I understand the pace is very good and I was delaying it, if I'm in I will post as soon as you tell me. Sorry again.

It's alright Nimon, I understand. I will keep an eye on you anyway, this seems to be shaping to be a great game for all involved. Enjoy your gaming everybody!

Here is Herani with full background. Hope it works. Let me know how/when you want me to jump in. I will start reading the IC thread shortly.

Male Human Dungeon Master

It works, though I must admit, I still have not found anything on this Band of Blades where are you guys getting that bit of fluff from? I only own the Inner Sea Guide as far as background stuff.

Feel free to jump in now, give your self full gold potential for your class and 1 master craft weapon and 1 potion of cure light.

You get 2 hero points(rules in APG for them). 1 for background and 1 for killing Snarlk(you were not here for that but I will not penalize you).

We are about to start several combats within a dream, when you wake from this dream you will remember everything.


Female Human(Azlanti Pure Blood) Wizard(Metal Elementalist)/2 - Cleric/3

Lol - I do not have the Inner Sea Guide - think I need to get it.

Here is where I am getting it.

Are we going to have spells in the dream?/When we awake?


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

99% finished, just need to add spells known and equipment. Really, really annoyed that a dangblasted Handaxe is not a simple weapon, as that would make perfect sense for me to use as my melee weapon, sticking with the whole lone hunter theme I'm going with since it would double as a tool.

Also, Why are there so many good Inquisitor spells, but so few we can know?!? ...not fair.

Dark Archive

Male Human Dungeon Master

Heh, well can't have it all. Inquisitors are pretty BA as it is.


Male Human (Azlanti Pure-Blood) Magus (Blade Bound, Kensai) 5

Nimon, I just got done looking at the Words of Power. I'm not sure I would want to trade my traditional spell casting for them. When you mentioned researching them, would they be added as additional spell casting capability or a replacement?

Dark Archive

Male Human Dungeon Master

No, not a replacement. I found what I was looking for on pg 166 Experimental Spellcaster feat. You get to add some Words to your spell list. I will be doing it simular to that, everytime you make a successful research roll, you can strip a word of power from a spell you know, eventually being able to make various combinations.


Male Weremonkey Rogue/Ranger/Trickster

Its 1am here for me, and I need to head to bed, like 20 minutes ago, lol. I will level Akor to 3 when I get home from work tomorrow. I've been a bit sick lately, so it might not be till late morrow night, as this whole week when I've come home from work, I've passed out for a few hours.

WBL = wealth by level

For level 3 this would be 3000 gp worth of equipment. It is under the Core Rules --> Gamemastery tab on the website. About the 4th table . Would post the link but Iam posting from my phone.

Sorry - posted with the wrong Alias earlier - before I start working on equip - do we have our level 1 money, or the equivalent money based on the Wealth by Level table --> 3000 for level 3.

Still need to work on the words of power, should get that done in a while.

It will be at least that much worth in equipment, gold still holds value in the wastes so that would have been taken. This will be remedied in other ways to be revealed.

I'd like to use a whip, as I gain auto proficiency with it, but the whip kinda sucks as an actual weapon. Any chance you'd allow a war whip of some sort that has maybe a metal tip so it deals damage on a regular basis??

Check the scorpion whip from ultimate combat. http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/weapons/weapon-descriptions/whip- scorpion


Male Human (Azlanti Pure-Blood) Magus (Blade Bound, Kensai) 5

Man I've had a cold as well. Something's goin' around for sure.

Level 3 is where I can start kicking some butt - except I have a black blade scimitar hiding somewhere ;). I'll have to find it. Nimon, I have done some research, but haven't found an answer - so I guess it is up to you. Would you allow the black blade to be enchanted with other properties such as Keen?

Anyways, I am all leveled up.


Female Human(Azlanti Pure Blood) Wizard(Metal Elementalist)/2 - Cleric/3

I am still confused - are we choosing equipment with level 1 money? Or 3000 in accordance with level 3. Thanks, I will have stuff purchased fairly quickly once I know. Also, can I use my Craft Wondrous Items feat when purchasing magical equipment for pricing?

Dark Archive

GM W.R. Monger

I think we are doing the 3,000 gp version and are starting with maximum health or we roll it. What about multiclassing since I wanted to dip a bit into another class. Wondering before I do the all level up thing and the gold thing for gear.

Can I use her craft wondrous item feat for pricing too? =)

Deiros, Nimon said: "Reminder full hit points on progression." In other words, no rolling, just max health.


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

I've put 3 ranks in Linguistics, which gives me three new languages, how do you handle that? Can I just choose whichever, or do I need "in game" reasoning?

I was thinking of taking Celestial and Draconic for my first two, not sure about the 3rd, leaning towards Elven or Halfling.

Dark Archive

Male Human Dungeon Master

Ok just got home lots of questions looks like.

Full Hit point potential.
Go ahead and buy or upgrade your gear with 3k gold, remainder will be lost(loose change would be taken by these fiends)
I will not change the whip, it has it's purpose. There are some exotic weapons that might fit what you want, but you would need profiency.
You are all just now level 3, so no you can not use your craft wonderous items yet. There will be a chance for that soon enough though.
Words of power level = the minimum slot they can be put in. So if you have a spell that uses Target word- Personal(level 0) and Effect word - Force Armor(level 3) this would be a level 3 spell slot.
You may choose any languages with linguistics that is fine, there is plenty of opertunity in the past to learn what ever you would want(druidic is only allowed if a druid though).
Xideus your weapon will be rewarded to you as soon as you link back up with Arodeth.(Should not be long depending, just remember where she said she was going)

Dark Archive

Male Human Dungeon Master

Oh ya, and to answer Xara, you do not get any Meta words yet, just Target and Effect. If you want boost you will have to get the feat. As you have noticed though, it is not a bad thing to have. Word spell feats are on 166 of the UM.


Male Human (Azlanti Pure-Blood) Magus (Blade Bound, Kensai) 5

All done with the equipment. I bought a pseudodragon if that's OK ;)

Can we pool our leftover gold for a wand of cure light wounds? Xideus will give 31 gold ;P


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

Nimon, can I use a Scorpion Whip?? It's from Ultimate Combat.

You can if you spend a feat on exotic weapons, it is in UC as an eastern exotic weapon.


Male Casrua. Inquisitor 20/Ranger10(gestalt feat)/Nature's Warden7(prestigious)

Even though it says if your proficient with a whip, your proficient with a scorpion whip(Akor is proficient as whip is Calistria's favored weapon)??
When I checked it out, I thought it was in the Gladiatorial weapons section, which would kinda be fitting, considering our current situation. The other reason I was asking is to pick my Teamwork feat. Might take a ranged one, or pick a melee one, depending.

Also, I am thinking of taking the feat Favored Judgement, which requires you to select a favored enemy ala the Ranger. Do you have any suggestions that might fit, especially since we don't truly know our full history?
