the discussion
Well... I'm relieved to see I'm not the only one in trouble. ^^;
major announcement time.
Anything and everything found in the netbook under the dragon banner is now allowed in my game.
Finally took a long look through it, and it looks well thought out and balanced, so have fun.
yeah...major plot twist...
HELLO! o_o I have wondered how the Wheel-World would be different if saidar had been tainted instead of saidin, but I didn't expect to see how such a world would pan out. :D Kewl.
Yeah, now I've read this thread as well, cool, I've wondered about this as well :)
I guess we better find a way to meet in the dream world somehow, at least to share information about portal stones. Otherwise we'll have to make a stop in this world if ever we are to get back.
warder template
Warder:
+2 enhancement bonus to Strength (Stronger)
+1 hp per level (stacks with toughness) (Tougher)
+5' bonus to speed (Faster)
+2 to all saving throws against weaves and abilities of shadowspawn and darkfriends. (Darkfriend is defined as someone who has sworn oaths to the Dark One)
I'll get onto making contact - if I can - as soon as I can manage to grab forty winks. ^^;
Thinking about my 9th level that I haven't yet taken - if anyone wants to wade in with suggestions, please feel free...
If I had even decent Str or Dex I'd take my 9th lvl right now in Armsman. I guess I could take Noble, but it seems a bit incongruous. Kodo's family was of the noble warrior type, but it doesn't really seem to fit, which is a shame, as Cha is my only positive stat apart from Wis...
Any ideas? Should I just take Armsman, aiming to take the now-available Flame and Void feat, which allows use of Wis instead of Strength? I can take it after level 10 when I'd have BAB+5... Would make Kodo somewhat useful in combat.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Armsman sounds like a good choice to me, especially with the Flame and Void. But more generally, take whatever class you think fits your character; I think that it's more how one plays the character and less the stats that make a character fun.
Also, I don't know how nice Rizzen will be, but you can bet that Alathea will learn the weave to Heal Severing if she finds it. (Almost as enthusiastically as she'll learn the weave to Sever!) I think you should keep playing Kodokura.
Whether or not I get my channelling back, I think a couple levels of Armsman might be good. Even if I max my channelling, Kodo's never going to rival Rhoekk, for example, for damage output. Fulfilling his father's wishes might be something that could keep him from passing into complete melancholy and death.
Well, at least my Madness score won't go up as I level this time :) I think I'll just do it, DM permitting?
And yes, let's find you that weave Alathea!
do it. no madness score will be assigned.
Dot.
Just so I am clear, if they find that a woman can channel she is hung on the spot?
no.
they put the woman on trial, then hang her.
made a change to the woodsman class:
I am discarding the natures warrior ability, and replacing it with the basic favored enemy and favored terrain abilities from the pathfinder Ranger.
Favored enemy list will be broken down as follows:
myrddraal
trolloc
draghkar
gray man
Darkhound
Country (Tear, Illian, Tanchico, etc)
Favored terrain:
Blight
Forest
Aiel Waste
Desert
wetland/marsh
Plains
Urban
no.
they put the woman on trial, then hang her.
Well, that's a relief...
check that, i forgot something.
they put the woman on trial
then the offer her death or severing.
On the Woodsman, I took The blight feat:Shadowspawn Hunter for trollocs, can I regain that feat for transferring them to my favored enemy?
Yes
Yikes, this is one scary questioning already...
Yes, Rizzen, you really know how to make Alathea uncomfortable...
Yes, Rizzen, you really know how to make Alathea uncomfortable...
I have my ways.
I'm imagining this setting as a cross between the inquisition and the Salem Witch hunts.
Oh dear, oh dear... Things are rapidly spiralling out of control, aren't they just...?
Indeed. I really, really hope Alathea can talk her way out of this one. On the other hand, I do have a character idea in mind should she be killed, should Rizzenmagnus approve...
You two are making it really difficult not to read the spoilers... lol
That's because we want everyone else to suffer. :p *evil laugh*
that's my job
Wow, things are getting exciting in here! ^^
I am currently doing the planning stages for this campaign, and see that the mix of combat to roleplay will be about 60/40.
Also, there will be more ter'angreal made available for procurement in this campaign. Just food for thought.
Hey there GM, I've just levelled up with armsman, I'm wondering if you could throw poor old crippled Kodo a bone... I can't qualify for any Str or Dex based feats, as my scores are 8 and 10 respectively, sooo, I was wondering if I may be able to save my level 9 feat till next level, when I can qualify for the flame and the void? As it is I'll be spending this level as an exceptionally substandard combatant (+4 to attack, -1 to Dmg)...
I totally understand if you're not up for me saving a feat for later, but I just thought I'd ask.
If I can't save it, I'd be up for suggestions from anyone on what to take. I'm thinking dazzling display, as my Intimidate is pretty sweet, but do people see that as useful?
Also, hp rules? Regular rolls? Here's mine if so:
$@&+!
We've been getting maximum hit points per level, as I remember. Also, don't look now, but you may not have to rely on being a combatant for much longer...assuming we can find the missing half of our companions.
Happy Valentine's Day, all!
Yeah, I think it's max hps.
Its max hps.
and look over those intimidate rules again. I think there is something worthwhile in there
P.s. If only there was one item, one out of 21, that would help kodokura. If only these 21 items were in a bag. And oh it would be so nice if Rhoekk would carry that bag...
Max hps - phew!
So that's a no on the feat saving? Fair enough.
Yeah, the -2 debuff on all enemies within 30' is ok I guess... It just means my feat progression for magic feats is interrupted, and if I want my level in armsman to be useful at all I really need flame and void, so I'll have to interrupt the magic feats thing again...
I would have been ok if I stayed a dedicated and didn't take the Asha'man prestige class - my BAB would be +5 now, letting me take the damn feat. But Asha'man are just cool, know what I mean? :)
Yeah, I feel your pain. Taking the wise one levels really hurt Fia's BaB too.
Yeah, the ol' "+0 BAB" thing is a deterrent to power dipping I guess, but in a setting as rich as this one, where dipping is often done for story/coolness reasons rather than optimisation, it just tends to hurt story based decisions... Oh well.
You guys seem to be have loads of fun here, I mean Wow!

OOOOO What ya rolling for Rizzen? something cool i hope
hehe... It could be Fia's new madness rating...
Wait, I really shouldn't feed him ideas...
Yeah that would be awful if it is
nope. just rolling for something else
For Alathea's madness, huh?
Just recently watched the bourne identity. Great movie, filled with plot points and locations that a smart dm can properly utilize
Second one is good too... have yet to watch the third and fourth installments of the series though.
Hate to be that guy, but...
As good as the movies are, the books (the first two, at least) are sooo much better (that's probably harsh - they're completely different animals). I've tried Ludlum's other stuff after Bourne, and I find his novels to be rather bland, pulpy thrillers, but boy did he hit gold with the Bourne Identity. It's very different from the movie - totally different in fact, apart from the basic central premise - but far deeper and more thought provoking in terms of what identity is.. The movie is kind of like BBC's Sherlock is to Conan Doyle's Holmes: a modernised take on the idea of a character.
As a fan of the movies, I can highly recommend the book :)
There's a lot of activity in here... Let's see what you guys have been up to. ^^
Mostly just trying to keep our heads attached. :)
