Ill have my wayang finished tomorrow morning..
It could be an oracle if anybody goes that class route, or one of us could be having the visions.
EDIT: If nobody wants to go oracle I will be the guy to have the visions (if that's okay).
For the city, I vote for 4 (Taldor). Big fan of freedom here.

Balik hails from the halfling clans salted through the Shoanti-controlled hills of Varisia. The halflings in this region adopt many of the traditions and practices of the human Shoanti Clans (though the halflings will argue, persuasively, that the humans are aping ancient halfling practices).
It was apparent from an early age that Balik was touched by great powers - and powers that flourish in the darkest night. Many of Balik's clansmen had a talent for interacting with the natural world - moving lightly through forests, having great empathy with animals, and talents for finding sustenance and shelter in the wilds. In contrast, Balik stayed away every new moon, and would return with black foxes, or bearing nightshade and mistletoe with black berries. Her clansfolk became uneasy when she began to return with shrine elements and writings of the dead god Curchanus.
Although Balik's gifts were embraced by the tribe, individual clansfolk felt uncomfortable with the 'weirding chylde'. She was fostered to the Lyrune Clan (and eventually took their name) and their aging shaman Haldorus to develop and nurture her 'weirding ways'. This was a great success, and Balik has - and maintains - a very close relationship with her mentor.
But in her 25th year, Balik was plagued with dreams and portents. That piece of her that responded so directly and viscerally to some legacy of Curchanus goaded her. Haldorus consulted with her, and scryed her destiny. The unambiguous scrying was as imperative as inscrutable. Balik was to travel alone, at night, in a specific direction, where unseen presences awaited her. A message and a task awaited her - and she would recognize new companions and the task - both set squarely on the path of her destiny.
Balik is a very private person. She is most comfortable stalking through the night of a new moon, hunting prey for her sustenance, and to support her clan. Fostered to the Lyrune clan, she has adopted their less berserkergang, more measured and deliberate approach to life and warfare. But like the broader Shoanti, Balik cares little for the constraints and niceties of Inner Sea 'civilizations'. She came to adulthood, and is strongly in tune with, some of the most immediate, savage, and visceral elements of the natural world. In addition to the savagery of nature, Balik is also touched by the Void, and her dead god Curchanus. Balik has a profound capacity to disregard the irrelevant - including empathy, pity, or personal connection - her cool, dissociated regard can be deeply disturbing - particularly from an attractive 3 foot tall childlike figure. It is even more disturbing when Balik turns from her iciest moments, and moments later reengages as a warm and personable companion.

@Balik I look forward to your backstory.

As I said shes a Professional Grifter, not into violence, so may know some that are as back up.
Need an assassin to help keep those drunk's hands to themselves?
Bonus:
Be right back.
Hmm, part of the reason I posted up Huluk was partially because I thought there was an oracle character already in the making. If this isn't the case then I wouldn't mind if this handsome chap was considered in his place: Grimward Brack, Oracle of the Spellscar.
Anyway, the offer's there.
Dang! Wish I had more experience to get accepted and tied in! I was thinking a drow psionic assassin or wizard cleric. It was going to be epic and characterized after a couple characters from R.A. Salvatore. Haha. Guess I'll just keep my eyes on this to see how the game turns out.
Will you allow the Demonic Obedience feat? I can't find it on the PRD though.... If allowed, I would take Baphomet as my Demon Lord.
woooooo this thread blew up while i was at work
I am going to go with a wizard evoker who will head for the Bloodmage Prestige Class. He will be an evoker, and I am thinking Neutral alignment. He will have been studying the theory behind what the Bloodmages in Kaer Maga do, and has taken the first steps along the route of using his blood to strengthen his spellcasting. Unfortunately, it has taken a toll on his physical well-being.

@Grimward/Huluk - I set up Balik as a potential 'Oracle lite', if the GM's inclined. Exactly who else would believe the nomadic psychotic and oddly disturbing little waif, and go off the reservation to follow her prophecies... well... I guess that would have to be a bunch of people that didn't want to get kicked in the shins. In the dark. With pointy shoes.

THE DICE HAVE SPOKEN
I think it is time for me to play my rogue of terror. A purely amoral, high functioning sociopath who has decided it is time to do 'the right thing'. The only snag is that he has no idea exactly what that entails.
Canim "The Corpulent" is my submission. The alias isn't complete, I still have work to do, but it should give you the general idea.
I've got the Crunch but no alias or fluff. That will be handled tomorrow.
Just need to choose which spells to prepare, and buy equipment, and my character should be complete.

I wish to play a gnomish intellectual wizzard that despises the intellectual elite. Kind of like Beatty from fahrenheit 451.
He is a very get-under-your-skin type guy who likes to corner his prey into helpless submission rather then confront head on.
I'll build this out soon. What is starting gold?

All right this is Isaac from above, and here is the character I created. I wrote a nice background but when I went to save it the 30second timeout ate it.
Hes cool, nice new Gnome alt image
@Tobalis - edited in above. "You ninja'd me, man!"
Sorry I'm reading it now.
Will you allow the Demonic Obedience feat?
Since I can't open that page you will have to PM me the details of the feat then I will consider it.
Heads Up guys I will make my decision on the final party in two hours, so make any changes and fixes ASAP.
Also for the record, you are making 4th level characters but using 5th level WBL which is 10,500 GP
You will be starting in Cassimor with a mob on your heels chasing you out of town.
Is it alright if i roll for a few higher dc alchemey items that i cannot yet take 10 on.. If i fail to hit 25 i just lose the material costs?
And what Catastrophe did we stop but we are blamed for causing in the first place?
Lol that soon? I thought the party would be decided up next Tuesday!
Anyway, I'm submitting Sixth for consideration, Walter's character. The basic background is there, but I'm finishing the other details, like appearance, behavior, contacts. I'm also pming some of the other possible players to see in what can we interact, but so far most of them are really villains ^^
Sixth is a summoner with an Undead Eidolon, not the one he like to have, but still, you use what you can, right?
I post multiple times a day and like long campaigns, so I hope to be among the selected. ^_^
Is it alright if i roll for a few higher dc alchemey items that i cannot yet take 10 on.. If i fail to hit 25 i just lose the material costs?
That's fine by me.
@Sixth. I was initially planning to do that but considering the overwhelming response I've had in character concepts I decided to bump up the schedule. Plus things rarely going according to plan is going to be a bit of a theme with this game. >:D
This is Seinal for your consideration.

Im done with my guy, just gotta get his backstory finsihed..
Fluff!!!!!
Brad came to Cassimor three years ago and told the nearest barkeep that he would like to crawl up into a bottle and never come out. Brad paid the man with a substantial amount of money and was told that he would never have to worry about anything ever again.
The days went by and as he started drinking he has found himself being able to achieve a more spontaneous fighting style. There were fights that he wasn't the cause of but somehow got involved in over the years but no one died and the worst injury was a mild concussion. Save for the broken chairs, tables and bottles. But he lead a quite life and became known as the Town Drunk. Never giving his full name people started calling him Brad Drunk and sometimes they wouldn't pronounce the "r" correctly. Not that he cared, he knows he did something but he can't remember what and that is fine with him.
Every once in a while people would come asking for a "Brad Hemmingsworth" and they came with a bounty sheet but people would turn the other way and say that they haven't seen him. They might not like Brad but he had always kept to himself and they didn't want someone else to come in and be a bad influence being drunk.
However since the "incident" he got involved in by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. All he was doing that day was taking a stroll by his favorite part of town, drinking of course, and he came across some fire. Now being the drunk that he is he forgot that Ale was flammable so he poured his drink on the fire hoping to put it out. Well that caused more problems than it solved and the gist of it was that half of the city was burned down. He didn't realize at the time but it wasn't all his fault however the people don't believe him and are now driving him out of town. The barkeep has to side with the people or else he will lose his business but before Brad left the inn the barkeep stocked him up with Ale for as long as much Ale as he could store.
Brad is now having to worry about becoming sober. something he desperately doesn't want to happen for reasons he has forgotten.

-----Feats-----
Human Bonus Feat: Combat Reflexes
Level 1 Feat: Crane Style
Monk Bonus Feat level 1: Panther Style
Monk Bonus Feat level 2: Crane Wing
Level 3 Feat: Fast Drinker
-----Class Abilities------
AC Bonus (Ex)
When unarmored and unencumbered, the monk adds his Wisdom bonus (if any) to his AC and his CMD. In addition, a monk gains a +1 bonus to AC and CMD at 4th level. This bonus increases by 1 for every four monk levels thereafter, up to a maximum of +5 at 20th level.
These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the monk is flat-footed. He loses these bonuses when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load.
Fuse Style (Ex)
At 1st level, a master of many styles can fuse two of the styles he knows into a more perfect style. The master of many styles can have two style feat stances active at once. Starting a stance provided by a style feat is still a swift action, but when the master of many styles switches to another style feat, he can choose one style whose stance is already active to persist. He may only have two style feat stances active at a time. At 8th level, the master of many styles can fuse three styles at once. He can have the stances of three style feats active at the same time. Furthermore, he can enter up to three stances as a swift action.
At 15th level, the master of many styles can fuse four styles at once. He can have the stances of four style feats active at the same time. Furthermore, he can enter up to four stances as a free action by spending 1 point from his ki pool.
This ability replaces flurry of blows.
Unarmed Strike
At 1st level, a monk gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. A monk's attacks may be with fist, elbows, knees, and feet. This means that a monk may make unarmed strikes with his hands full. There is no such thing as an off-hand attack for a monk striking unarmed. A monk may thus apply his full Strength bonus on damage rolls for all his unarmed strikes.
Usually a monk's unarmed strikes deal lethal damage, but he can choose to deal nonlethal damage instead with no penalty on his attack roll. He has the same choice to deal lethal or nonlethal damage while grappling.
A monk's unarmed strike is treated as both a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.
A monk also deals more damage with his unarmed strikes than a normal person would, as shown above on Table: Monk. The unarmed damage values listed on Table: Monk is for Medium monks. 1d8
Bonus Feat
At 1st level, 2nd level, and every four levels thereafter, a master of many styles may select a bonus style feat or the Elemental Fist feat. He does not have to meet the prerequisites of that feat, except the Elemental Fist feat. Alternatively, a master of many styles may choose a feat in that style’s feat path (such as Earth Child Topple) as one of these bonus feats if he already has the appropriate style feat (such as Earth Child Style). The master of many styles does not need to meet any other prerequisite of the feat in the style’s feat path.
This ability replaces a monk’s standard bonus feats.
Stunning Fist (Ex)
At 1st level, the monk gains Stunning Fist as a bonus feat, even if he does not meet the prerequisites. The monk may attempt a stunning attack a number of times per day equal to his monk level, plus one more time per day for every four levels he has in classes other than monk.
At 4th level, and every 4 levels thereafter, the monk gains the ability to apply a new condition to the target of his Stunning Fist. This condition replaces stunning the target for 1 round, and a successful saving throw still negates the effect.
At 4th level, he can choose to make the target fatigued.
At 8th level, he can make the target sickened for 1 minute.
At 12th level, he can make the target staggered for 1d6+1 rounds.
At 16th level, he can permanently blind or deafen the target.
At 20th level, he can paralyze the target for 1d6+1 rounds.
The monk must choose which condition will apply before the attack roll is made. These effects do not stack with themselves (a creature sickened by Stunning Fist cannot become nauseated if hit by Stunning Fist again), but additional hits do increase the duration.
Evasion (Ex)
At 2nd level or higher, a monk can avoid damage from many area-effect attacks. If a monk makes a successful Reflex saving throw against an attack that normally deals half damage on a successful save, he instead takes no damage. Evasion can be used only if a monk is wearing light armor or no armor. A helpless monk does not gain the benefit of evasion.
Fast Movement (Ex)
At 3rd level, a monk gains an enhancement bonus to his land speed, as shown on Table: monk. A monk in armor or carrying a medium or heavy load loses this extra speed. +10 ft.
Maneuver Training (Ex)
At 3rd level, a monk uses his monk level in place of his base attack bonus when calculating his Combat Maneuver Bonus. Base attack bonuses granted from other classes are unaffected and are added normally.
Drunken Ki (Su)
At 3rd level, a drunken master can drink a tankard of ale or strong alcohol and gain one temporary ki point. The act of drinking is a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. The monk can have a maximum number of drunken ki points equal to 1 plus one additional point for every two levels thereafter (5th, 7th, and so on). The monk can gain this temporary ki even before he gains a ki pool at 4th level. These drunken ki points last for 1 hour or until spent, whichever is shorter. As long as he has at least 1 drunken ki point, the monk can spend 1 ki point as a swift action to move 5 feet without provoking attacks of opportunity.
This ability replaces still mind.
Ki Pool (Su)
At 4th level, a monk gains a pool of ki points, supernatural energy he can use to accomplish amazing feats. The number of points in a monk's ki pool is equal to 1/2 his monk level + his Wisdom modifier. As long as he has at least 1 point in his ki pool, he can make a ki strike.
At 4th level, ki strike allows his unarmed attacks to be treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 7th level, his unarmed attacks are also treated as cold iron and silver for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 10th level, his unarmed attacks are also treated as lawful weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 16th level, his unarmed attacks are treated as adamantine weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction and bypassing hardness.
By spending 1 point from his ki pool, a monk can do one of the following:
Make one additional attack at his highest attack bonus when making a flurry of blows attack, or
Increase his speed by 20 feet for 1 round, or
Give himself a +4 dodge bonus to AC for 1 round.
Each of these powers is activated as a swift action.
The ki pool is replenished each morning after 8 hours of rest or meditation; these hours do not need to be consecutive.
Slow Fall (Ex)
At 4th level or higher, a monk within arm's reach of a wall can use it to slow his descent. When first gaining this ability, he takes damage as if the fall were 20 feet shorter than it actually is. The monk's ability to slow his fall (that is, to reduce the effective distance of the fall when next to a wall) improves with his monk level until at 20th level he can use a nearby wall to slow his descent and fall any distance without harm.

Ok, introducing Shozan the Shadow, or as most know him Norbert Hornswallow, purveyor of alchemical goods..
Info under alias
OK I have finished my basic build and story. Given more time I will update but this is my best on short notice.
The Decision has been made I will clarify the details in a moment however these are the players I have chosen:
Kyomi Ohayashi -Trickster Rogue
Sixth- Summoner
Seinal- Bladebound Hexcrafter
Cilian- Rogue
Canim "The Corpulent"- Wizard
Balik Lyrune- Druid
Grimward Brack- Oracle
Finnigin Omally- Fighter/Wizard
Byron Swiftwater- Wizard
Shozan the Shadow- Fighter/Ninja
In case you are wondering yes I'm aware this party is horribly unbalanced but I could also see these people working together and banding together as a family or at least as allies.
Grimward Brack will be the main oracle and vision receiver, however Balik Lyrune and Seinal also receive visions that often corroborate Grimwards. This will also allow us to split the party up while keeping vision for everyone.
Balik and Seinal your visions are often based around misfortune and darkness, one of the reasons you help Grimward is because he is the only one out of the three of you to receive visions that hint at positive outcomes. Also his visions seem to be the easiest to affect.
Yesssss
Balik and Seinal your visions are often based around misfortune and darkness, one of the reasons you help Grimward is because he is the only one out of the three of you to receive visions that hint at positive outcomes. Also his visions seem to be the easiest to affect.
Of course, setting fate on its head is enough motivation for me. Following around an orcale for the sole purpose of disrupting the destiny his eyes see is right up my alley.
Yes! 10 players are a hell lot ^^ Let's see how that works out!
Yes! 10 players are a hell lot ^^ Let's see how that works out!
Yes however I think it will allow us to split up into separate groups without crippling the party. So I'm looking forward to it.
Is that everyone that applied? That is more than i would want to keep up with.. Cheers for invested GM's!
Well not everyone...
