Alright, my submission is about to be ready, but I'll be a bit busy today. The crunch is not 100% ready, but this is the alias, a Ranger/Warpriest of Mielikki. The fluff is not 100% ready, and I'm working on it on a doc outside of the forums (since I hate when my text is eaten by Paizo), but mostly:

Teucer is the bearer of a weird longbow, inherited from his father. He travels to the Half Way Inn in hopes of getting some clues about the bow from the inhabitants of Evereska. This will be further elaborated.

One question: in Faerun, half-elves cannot have progeny, right?

False, as far as i know.


Also, since this is a FR game, are you allowing a bonus regional feat and regional gear package??

Edit: What current info for Cormanthyr/Myth Drannor should we be using? Would the entries in the 3.0 FR book be alright, just time-shfited to your starting year?


Update: I'm going to be submitting an elf gestalt magus/fighter. I'm ironing out remaining crunch, then backstory. Hope to have it up in next couple of days.

no to the bonus feat and gear..

Ya.. the lore should be OK for Cormanthyr and Myth Drannor. We'er starting about 10-ish years before the Time of Troubles.


That's fine. Are they available for normal selection?

I was considering Luck of Heroes (+1 luck bonus to AC and saves) as it is far more flavorful for my character.

Ok, so i’m looking for about 4-6 level 1 PCs (one of which is spoken for, so 3-5) to be crazy enough to start this thing with me.

Forgive me if I missed this, the thread has blown up in a big way - in the interests of not submitting the same thing that already exists, do you know what the spoken-for player is going to be making?


There is a link on top of page.

So if we do submitt multiple characters you want us to reroll or should
we just stick with what we have already rolled


I will be submitting a Half-Elven Arcane Duelist Bard/Fighter with a penchant for speechifying, naïveté, and rushing into danger without thinking ahead. Now I just have to decide if I want to go the 16 Str/14 Dex route or the 14 Str/16 Dex route.

If that's in response to me, that sums up submissions so far. Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't specify the player who has already been accepted.

Okay, now I have starting equipment sorted out, so I believe my submission is complete.

You can use the same rolls.

The spoken for player is Samnell and his cleric/wizard of labelas.

I don't care about repeats, though. So submit what you want and we go from ther

Smanell: elf wizard/cleric of Labelas


Why that Samnell sounds like a swell fellow. ;-)

I almost submitted a Wizard/Cleric but an Elven Bladesinger/Arcane Archer combo was just too damn good to pass up!


Got it, cheers! I'll have my submission this weekend.

Let's stick to PF feats, there are a million feats in 3e, and opening them up is a Pandora's box I'm not sure my

Mind can handle.

I am backing out Gestalt characters just does not seem to suit me.

Fighter (Eldritch Guardian)

Eldritch guardians are trained to detect and give warning about magic threats to the people and places they protect.

Class Skills: The eldritch guardian adds Perception, Spellcraft, and Use Magic Device to his list of class skills, but does not gain Intimidate, Ride, or Swim as class skills.

Familiar (Ex)

At 1st level, an eldritch guardian gains a familiar, treating his fighter level as his effective wizard level for the purpose of this ability.
(familiar chosen Iuon wyrd. they're little floating rock dudes that I thought was appropriate for a dwarf craftsmen)
This ability replaces the bonus feat gained at 1st level.


warpriest version coming soon
Edit: given existing cleric in guaranteed slot, I'm probably going to go for the warpriest version, because with someone else able to take care of high level condition removal spells, I can be a better kickass fighter and crafter


Here is my Druid(treesinger)/Warpriest of Silvanus, Osgaron.

I just need to come up with a surname and then do all the fluff for him.

Thrain Duroktan

backstory:

Thrain Duroktan is a simple dwarf with a big dream. Born into a house of guards and warriors, Thrain preformed his duty, learning the ways of war in service to hearth and home, but he always longed for more. Despite showing skill with his family's warhammer based fighting style, Thrain felt a powerful connection to the forge. Thrain found a passion in the act of creation and joy in seeing his creations put to use, and it was not long before he found himself in service to the dwarves god of smiths, Moradin, laboring to provide weapons and armor for his home.
He's currently in town to further hone his craft both in filling orders for people and in searching for lost lore of the magic the ruins used to hold, and seeking expirence that Moradin dogma claims provides wisdom.

Focus Weapon

At 1st level, a warpriest receives Weapon Focus as a bonus feat (he can choose any weapon, not just his deity’s favored weapon).

Sacred weapon (1d6)

Smith’s Spells

A forgepriest adds the following spells to his spell list: 1st—jury rig, shield; 2nd—heat metal, shatter; 3rd—keen edge, quench, versatile weapon; 4th—wreath of blades; 5th—fabricate, major creation; 6th—mage’s sword.

Fighter (Eldritch Guardian)

Eldritch guardians are trained to detect and give warning about magic threats to the people and places they protect.

Class Skills: The eldritch guardian adds Perception, Spellcraft, and Use Magic Device to his list of class skills, but does not gain Intimidate, Ride, or Swim as class skills.

At 1st level, an eldritch guardian gains a familiar, treating his fighter level as his effective wizard level for the purpose of this ability.
(familiar chosen: Iuon wyrd. they're little floating rock dudes that I thought was appropriate for a dwarf craftsmen, later I'll get improved familiar and replace him with an earth elemental or homuclous)
This ability replaces the bonus feat gained at 1st level.

Yeah this is looking much more interesting than cleric

Expanding / correcting the background for my character, and the only thing I can find on how long Naiads live is here. (Says they live 700+ years.) ... It's not official anything though. Can I use that as an approximate age estimation for my character's lifespan (Paizo has very little detail), or do you have a different view on Naiad lifespans?

(Not asking to use third party content... just trying to figure out how close to the fall of Myth Drannor she would have been, and whether she might have talked to anyone who had actually been there.)


Question for the GM:

Spoiler:
I am working on a monk + Wood Wizard. I am looking at the Archetypes, and what I would really like to do is take both Maneuver Master and Monk of the Sacred Mountain. I would call him a Monk of the Sacred Tree, and he would be dedicated to saving the forest, nurturing the trees, and ridding the world of desecrating evils.

The Archetypes work together except at Level 4, when both call for a change to the Monk's Slow Fall Ability. Would it be acceptable to chose one of the two options, and therefore keep both Archetypes? Otherwise, obviously, I will chose one or the other...

Stat-wise, Akor is done, just need to pick spells and spend gold.

His chosen deity is Corellon Larethian, for when that matters for mechanical effects, but he worships the Seldarine overall.


Hmmm, I likes some rollin'

Spoiler:

4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 6, 1) = 13 = 12
4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 5, 1) = 13 = 12
4d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 3, 4) = 17 = 14
4d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 6, 4) = 18 = 16
4d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 2, 5) = 17 = 15
4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 5, 3) = 15 = 12

Well, 28 points on the first try!

If the 2 archetypes replace the same ability, you can't take both archetypes.

I'll be going with the warpriest version two posts down.

Deity is Moradin, blessings are War and Artifice

thanks for the note about liking my concept
I hope that when you select him, he'll live up to and surpass your expectations.


Heya Shadow, I keep forgetting that you and Lycan are the same person (more or less). :)

Heh, more than less :-)

I'll be updating that thread tomorrow.


Ok, i think i have all the submissions to date in the doc.

Silver Crusade

I'm thinking a Centaur Paladin/Monk of Lathander.

Str 18, Dex 15, Con 14, Int 10, Wis 16 and Cha 16.

Lets see if I can get his backstory going..

Ok, so doing this piecemeal is getting me nowhere....

[sooiler=Ser Armithia]
1) how did he get to the Halway Inn?
2) you have Taldane as a language in the Dossier. Also, Common doesn't exist in my FR (because i'm weird that way). The most frequently spoken language in the region would be Chondathan.

Common doesn't exist in my FR (because i'm weird that way). The most frequently spoken language in the region would be Chondathan.

Aelakoress:

don't forget the background!

1) how did he get to the Halway Inn?
2) you have Taldane as a language in the Dossier. Also, Common doesn't exist in my FR (because i'm weird that way). The most frequently spoken language in the region would be Chondathan.

Chondathan is the most common language in the region. Elven would probably go a long way


Gotcha, Nix Common, recode to Chondathan. Will do if I'm selected (redoing the char sheet isn't hard, uploading it and getting the links right is, so I'll fix it if I'm selected, if that's ok).


Background complete!

Do you need anything cleared up for his backstory?

Finished revised background finally. Pasting here so you don't have to go digging:

Background:

When Nivian was young, a young elven boy used to visit the edge of her lake. He was gentle and had a beautiful voice. He would sing of Cormanthyr and the heroes of Myth Drannor, the City of Song. She revealed himself to him after a time, by joining in one of his songs that she had learned while listening, having a natural talent in that area.

He kept coming to sing with her, and over time singing together, they learned of one another's cultures, and she learned of his dreams, and the new songs that he was learning. He taught her everything he knew as he learned to be a cleric, and she taught him more of nature and the wildness and songs of water.

Eventually, the time came when the boy stopped coming. He was growing into a man and had more responsibilities and interests and couldn't travel to come and see her as often, and then stopped altogether. She wasn't sure, but she guessed that he had met someone he loved and that his friendship with a naiad was seen as a negative by the object of his affection.

Nivian kept singing of Cormanthyr and Myth Drannor, and over time has kind of idealized it--in her mind it is the utopia where everyone gets along and unenlightened races don't start wars and ruin things... and it is a place where Naiads and Elves, and other races, could have lasting friendships that didn't have to end.

She never considered searching for Myth Drannor itself, but after the boy didn't return for many months, she left her lake to be cared for by her sisters and started traveling, bonding with the rivers and the water along the way, and looking for a place where she could learn new songs and enjoy the stories of other races without knowing that it would all just end with a distracted disinterest. (She was hurt by the loss of her friend, but instead of admitting that to herself, she tried to blame her sadness not on the object of her affection (who she didn't really realize that she loved so much), but on external influences... so she set off to seek to fill that empty place in her heart with new songs and experiences.)

She became an explorer, and her curiosity about people and things-- the whole community of the world and how it all fits together, but especially how elves interact with other races--has led her to the edge of Evereska where she started singing one day at the Halfway Inn and was quickly hired after the proprietor discovered how the combination of her music and unearthly beauty drew crowds.

She agreed because she loves to sing, and she misses her friend and hopes to find someone else who shares her idealism as he did. She does her best to spread the ideas of peace, community, and oneness with nature through her songs, stories, and poems. Adventure too, of course. Heroes and great deeds, but also compassion and doing what's right and good, even in the face of wicked rulers, judges, or laws. She sings often of Cormanthyr and Myth Drannor and the idea of races united in seeking good and building something together.
