The "World of Peace" - The Holy Vessels (Inactive)

Game Master Shizzle69

So I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in playing a game set in a world where the entire population is good. All of them. Yup even the dragons. There is one religion that has convinced everyone to be at peace, and they have lived this way for almost 2000 years.

You will be some of the most evil people from across the planes. Not in your face offensive, but behind the scenes scheming masterminds of evilness. So much so that you will attract the attention of the one person here who is not evil. Someone who will bring you back from death, yes your dead, most likely in hell you evil bastard, so that your can bring evil back to this "World of Peace."

I can answer any questions you might have. As far as rules for character creation go, you will be Gestalt. One class will be the evil that you once were. The other will be a body into which your lost soul will be placed. The race will be randomly determined by a 1d100 roll. I have a list and can tell you whats up. Stats will be 30 Point buy or 18,16,14,12,10,10, no you cannot dump a stat 8 will be the lowest after racial mods. 2 traits, I'm not quite sure on the level I'm thinking 3, 5 or 7. You must be evil!

Sounds delightful.

I'm curious about the list though, is it the same one used for Reincarnate? If so, will it be treated like a reincarnate in that you only take the physical characteristics of the new race but the mental ones of whatever you were before?

EDIT: Character would be either Lawful or Neutral Evil

The list is custom and much better than normal. Your race will be the body. Your mental state is represented by your class not your stats. So not really like reincarnate at all.

So a nett racial +0 on all mental stats? Just want to know what's going on.

I'm not completely sold on the random race part, but then again I guess mentally the character would belong to whatever race he or she was before dying.

But like I said, sounds delightful

I don't like the idea of someone else or randomness picking up my race, but other than that, it sounds like fun.

(how will you handle healing? Evil PCs might mean Evil Clerics who use negative energy...)

Your old race is of no consequence as far as mechanics go. You may by a strange twist of fate have the same race but for mechanical purposes you will just use the standards for the race you roll. You are more than welcome to roll before you choose your classes as well so that they can fit your body better. So if for instance I rolled a 57, I would be a gnome and use all of the racial stats for gnome. The fact that in my past life I was a human does nothing for my mechanics, just my story.

Edit:Healing would be best left to the cure spells. I would recommend against playing a cleric as the aura could cause trouble if anybody bothers to look for it. It's not against the rules but you will have to take precautions unless your super sneaky dude or something.

Your characters will have accepted this fate and the body, you are not forced into doing this, you want to.

What about things like racial archetypes? Could you have one class (your old life) using a racial archetype for your old race?

EDIT: For instance, I'd love to have been a Ratfolk Alchemist in the past using Plaguebringer.

Interested, even have a character rolled up that would fit.

Backstory mind need changing, but he's an Infernal Bloodline Sorc, who sees his powers as a blessing, and wants to advance the agenda of Hell and Asmodeus as much as possible.

Let's do this! Race is 1d100 ⇒ 45

That can work. Any abilities that work off of racial traits will not work because you will no longer have the trait but you qualified for the class before you died so you can have it now.

A 45 would make you a Half-Elf. If interest is high and it looks like we'll play, you can keep that or I can roll again. The same goes for all who roll.

So, I am a half-elf or was I one?

Your soul is being placed in a half-elven body.

hehe, this could be fun, especially if the godling books are allowed. I can see a clever or eldritch godling class char having lots of fun with a background of a fallen evil god wanting Evil back

Honestly, because even normally evil people wouldn't want truly to bring evil back otherwise, as they would rather use the chance to trick everyone into helping its goals to power and riches. A formerly evil outsider would however hate all the happy bunny wabbits and flower tossing virgin priests in a world without pain/suffering/treachery/war.

1d100 ⇒ 13

just wanted to see what my char's race would become

Surprise me 1d100 ⇒ 45

Wow, so Half-Elf :P

1d100 ⇒ 19Elf, huh...

I had idea about a gestalt Mindchemist-Void Mage. It's too bad I don't really like evil games. Have fun with it guys, especially you Monkeygod.

yes===# in
Lets have more fun

Sex 1 male 2 female

Original sex 1d2 ⇒ 1
New body sex 1d2 ⇒ 2

New body sex 1d100 ⇒ 19 elf so Oterisk says GM is that true.

Old race, as to be Drow - just think of it not only in an elf body but also in a female elf body of the neurosises.

would like to be an evil summiner synthesis a big black spider o man love this idea. In this way he/she can shift into evil mode by calling the dark spider.

Sweet elf maid, Evil dark spider demon.

Why, because he/she can that why CE dos not need a way it just needs a when who where and how

maniacal laugh, maniacal laugh, maniacal laugh.

Hmm 19 is in fact elf. How did you know that. 13 is Half-Orc. Man number generator is wonky. Also I don't know anything about godlings. As far as motivation, that should perhaps be something you work on creating. The world is how it is. Why you would want to change it, and how is up to you not me.

ah half-orc, lol

here is one of the godlings, you can find the other classes at the same place too

LINK

Cool it's on d20PFSRD. Pretty much anything on there is fair game since I can access it whenever.

If your letting in Godlings 3ed party would you let in Psionics?
A mind mage is made for this kind of game of hiding true self.
Thinking of a Telepath GM as core evil race Illithid or Githynaki.

Oh yeh I love psionics. Your gith or Illithid would have to deal with their New body though which might be fun for you.

I also forgot to mention that The book of Vile Darkness and it's counterpart the Book of Exalted Cheese will be allowed for this game.

sign me up as a Mighty Godling half-orc or a Clever Godling (unsure yet), the setting fits them so well I have to think carefully which

some decision on the level would be nice, as I see it most classes really begin to be fun at lvl 6

Actually, new idea. Previous race and class- Elf fighter/Duelist Vampire (nosferatu actually). New class is Monk. A 30 point buy would be great for this build. He is the tragic style of villain, who would rather be good but is drawn to evil, when he became a vampire he gave up all hope of being good and for a long time masqueraded as living and good while secretly living off of the dregs of society. Now he is reincarnated and the situation makes him morose and irritable. He will probably go Undead again if allowed or if he finds a way. Would absolutely exchange two character levels for the Nosferatu Template.

Since you aren't sure of the level yet, I only built him to 3

I'm not sure on the second class yet (will accept the second roll you talked about when the game would get off the ground. Half-Elves are nice, but can be a bit bland) but I'll grab a Plaguebringer Alchemist as the "old" half.

The basic idea is that before his death my character served one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, pestilence in his case. Now that they are all gone, either killed or in hiding, he wants to now become the one rider and bringer of the apocalypse. Tying him in with plague, famine and death is no problem, just looking for a nice tie to war.

I love it, great idea.
If you still have room, I am all for the randomness of evil.

1d100 ⇒ 46
If this total is also a half-elf, I'd be fine reversing it to 64 to add some variety.

I'd be happy to roll everything as random as well, just give me the dice to roll.

vampire? there can be templates?

jtfoto: I see half-elf people

psionic it is then, prob have to make my mind up on Illithid or Githynaki but gives me a start

Start sex male
new sex female

old race Illithid or Githynaki
new race elf.

Old class psionic
new class to be desired may go for two psionics or wis/psionic

heh, no idea why I missed that its a gestalt campaign, now I have less worries about multiclassing and such, and will either choose two different godling classes for gestalt, or use a Mighty G/Magus coombination :P

vampire? there can be templates?

jtfoto: I see half-elf people

Lol, yeah but my half-elf's other half is a hobgoblin.

I'm in shizzle! I've RPed with you and like your style. Here is my roll: 1d100 ⇒ 26

I'm hoping for an evil race! Let's see what I get!

I am in,1d100 ⇒ 44
Old race Gnome, class alchemist vivisectionist, new class if Mid size Barb titan mauler, if small size ranger something.

Interesting approach, but I've had my stomp on Hommlet run, so it's safely out of my system

So 44 and 46 are both half-elf. This number roller is bringing them on. Jman72 you have much luck 26 is Half-Dragon. Choose Wisely your color.

Woot!!!!!! Since it is a template, do I need to roll the other half? With gesalt, how would the class level start for this race?

Sounds like a blast. Cmon number roller

1d100 ⇒ 87

87 is Orc don't worry everyone is accepted in the world of peace so race will not negatively effect anyone.

Hmm, Orc. Well, Fighter/Barbarian it is then. Will have stats tommorow

had a look at this

ConvertedMindFlayer here

They all seem to get +6 Int which is high unless its that kind of game.
I could just tone it down and go with +2int as with the elf.

So will have to have a think but going with a psionic

@Jman: Yes you should roll the base race This list is new so I hadn't thought of that. Only like 4% templates so it hasn't come up yet.

Edit:I found more notes on the back of the list. Including how to build the troll.(yes I am race dropping) All templates are meant to be human according to me of 2 years ago.

@Spugly Fuglet:Do not worry about mind flayer you will have none of their abilities. Your personality will be that of a mindflayer but you body will be an elf. No more mind blast, or dominate person. It will be difficult for you to adapt. The way it works is that you were given a choice so you knew that you were entering a different body, in your case a "lesser" body, to accomplish your goals.

Roger...human/half dragon

4%-wow!

So in picking color, do I need to pick an evil color?

You had me at evil, though I have to confess that I have no idea what gestalt means.

And just for grins, here is this: 1d100 ⇒ 92

92 is Vanara Gestalt is basically like taking two classes at one and getting the best of both.

Why not. Lets see how this goes. 1d100 ⇒ 14

14 is Half-Orc again.

Not bad. There are some fun things that could be done with half orcs but they will never match up to the gestalt rolled.

you didn't reply to the PM, plus the question still stands on what level we start at

Wow, vanara gives me all kinds of ideas about stuff. The thing that keeps coming back to me is a druid/monk, or maybe a Cavalier mixed with that sorcerer bloodline that lets you cast from wisdom.

I'm definitely gonna compete for a slot in this. Love me some evil games.

1d100 ⇒ 83

Edit: Gestalt just means that every level you get to take two classes instead of one right? So a level 1 character could have all the benefits of both a fighter and barbarian level (or whatever two classes) correct?
