Baru, hey fellow Wisconsinite. :)

No pets here myself, but I do have a lot of houseplants and a big garden.
Been playing RPGs since the mid 80s. Most of the time I am the GM, so these PBP campaigns are my only chance to play.

Sorry, I have no idea how I didn't notice the other threads were up till now.

Character should be all finished now and good to go.

okay so story-wise I still have a lot of work to do, work is still taking over a big portion of my life, but the good news is that once I get everybody situated and teamed up it should be snowballing from there, encounters are easy for me and as long as I have the big picture planned out I can fill in details as I go.

For now I am looking through everybody's character sheets and will be supplying advice and/or suggestions on improvements that could either benefit the campaign, the team, or individual players. That being said I did not build your characters and would be overstepping my boundaries if I tried to use my mindset to construct your idea, so if a suggestion contradicts your overall plan for your character please let me know.

First off: Baru Brimmstone.

You may alter your rogue side to the unchained rogue if you wish,it would free up a feat since the unchained rogue gets weapon finesse as a bonus feat at 1st. Also I would suggest putting a rank into Perception given that you are the party's first line of defense against traps.

More to come...

Do you have a link to the unchained stuff? I know it just came out, not sure if its up on any of the SRDs.

ditto.

I hear the unchained rogue gets a lot of love, but I don't have the book yet. If there are any links yet, I too, would appreciate it. I definitely would be willing to update to unchained rogue.

still buy the book though, support paizo!

Thank you for the link.

So after overlooking Rogue Unchained, like you stated it gives me weapon finesse. Freeing up my 1st level feat now brings me to ask for a GM discretion.

Would you allow me to take extra exploit?

Why do I ask?

Extra Arcanist Exploit Feat:
Extra Arcanist Exploit

Your repertoire of arcanist exploits expands.

Prerequisite: Arcanist exploit class feature.

Benefit: You gain one additional arcanist exploit. You must meet the prerequisites for this arcanist exploit.

Special: You can take this feat multiple times. Each time you do, you gain another arcanist exploit.

School Savant Archtype:
School Savant (Archetype)

Some arcanists specialize in a school of magic and trade flexibility for focus. School savants are able to prepare more spells per day than typical arcanists, but their selection is more limited.

School Focus (Su): At 1st level, a school savant chooses a school of magic. The arcanist gains the abilities granted by that school, as the arcane school class feature of the wizard, treating her arcanist level as her wizard level for these abilities. She can also further specialize by selecting one of the subschools. In addition, the arcanist can prepare one additional spell per day of each level she can cast, but this spell must be chosen from the selected school.

Finally, the arcanist must select two additional schools of magic as her opposition schools. Whenever she prepares spells from one of her opposition schools, the spell takes up two of her prepared spell slots. In addition, a school savant takes a –4 penalty on any skill checks when crafting a magic item that has a spell from one of her opposition schools as a prerequisite. A school savant cannot select the school understanding arcanist exploit. This ability replaces the arcanist exploits gained at 1st, 3rd, and 7th levels.

With School Savant, my character still meets the feat prerequisite. I have the class feature, although I would not actually select my 1st exploit until 5th level.

Some people say, "No problem, take it."

Although:

Other people rule the Extra in the feat title, places an undeclared restriction of "Must already have 1 exploit." Meaning I would not be able to take this feat until at least 5th level.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

With my character being a teleport-y focused in concept, I would like to take the Dimensional Slide exploit:

Dimensional Slide:
Dimensional Slide (Su): The arcanist can expend 1 point from her arcane reservoir to create a dimensional crack that she can step through to reach another location. This ability is used as part of a move action or withdraw action, allowing her to move up to 10 feet per arcanist level to any location she can see. This counts as 5 feet of movement. She can only use this ability once per round. She does not provoke attacks of opportunity when moving in this way, but any other movement she attempts as part of her move action provokes as normal.

So... what do you think? Thumbs up or Thumbs down?

The pre-req is arcane exploit class feature which, even though you don't get that first exploit you are still considered as having the class feature. At least as far as I am concerned.

So yes, you may take that feat.

Just a heads up, I'll be out of town this weekend, so I won't be able to post until Sunday night.

cool. thx for the clarification.

@Burns, don't forget to add the +1 to hit for your bombs from Throw Anything.

@Nijena, I would put a skill rank in Perception. With that, you'd get a +8 Perc. Higher than the rest of the party, would help mitigate ambushes, hint hint.

Still reading over character sheets and planning out the opening, sorry for the wait guys but I want to make sure it's perfect!

Perception is not a class skill for cleric or wizard, I would only get a +1 bonus from the rank which is poor return compared to knowledge skills etc. My eyes of the hawk ability will increase on its own as I level, and I plan to make magic items to augment it. It might be a couple levels before then. Also my familiar has +14 Perception, so if anything blatantly weird happens, I will get a mental nudge from my bird pal.

No worries. Ready whenever you are.

@Nijena, since the additional class skill from the feather domain is wasted for you, I will allow you to gain Perception as a class skill instead.

okay so just need Baru to update his sheet with the unchained rogue, Nijena may gain Perception, and Burns is missing the +1 from Throw Anything.

On to Jonuli and Nolath, once I finish with them I will do another quick run-thru to make sure I didn't miss anything.

@Nolath and Jonuli, could I get you guys to list the bonuses for all of your skills (listing each knowledge separately) please, makes it easier for me to reference.

Does that include untrained skills like Climb, Swim, etc., or just the trained ones? I've put the trained ones in a separate spoiler of my profile.

Updated. Ditched Knowledge Religion.

All skills trained and untrained. And I would prefer them to be together and in a columned list as opposed to listed out in sentence form with commas. Easier to read.

I meant replace the Fly skill that the feather domain grants you since the wizard class already gives it to you.

Yeah, that's what i did. I meant in order to take a rank in Perception I had to ditch a rank in Knowledge Religion.

Ah okay then

@Nolath, your Kn(planes) should be +7 and your heal should be a +3. Don't forget about the alter self SLA unless you replace it via the variant table, if so please include a note of that in your sheet.

EDIT: also, your Kn(religion) should be a +5

now that everybody has access to the unchained book. take a look at the rules for stamina and combat tricks (pg.112) I will be granting fighters stamina for free, all other classes may take the feat if they would like.

Sorry again for the delay, is everybody still here and willing to play? I will be beginning your adventure soon just need to clear up a few things about the city your in and I should be able to finish that part tonight, assuming I won't need to stay late at work.

I'm ready to go!

I will give Burns until monday to respond. If he doesn't by then we will start without him. Everybody get ready for an adventure of excitement and danger beyond your wildest dreams ;)

Any response from Burns?

I don't think burns will be playing anymore, he's gone afk on his other games as well. Who do I have left that's interested? I want to start with everybody ready rather than surprising you all and waiting for you to catch up so I will give everybody one week to post in here expressing ur continued interest and will make the first post in the gameplay thread next Monday. Whoever fails to reply to this post I will assume is incapable of fulfilling the minimum post expectations and I will be dropping them. Sorry if that sounds harsh but I want to make sure this game stays strong and I want only the most dedicated of players.

I'm here. I check in every day all day. I have other PBP games as well as my own I just started so I am a frequent poster and participant. Unless I get hit by a meteor I'm not going anywhere.
