If you want. I can help you with herolab?I'd appreciate that.
Will do. Along with my tiger skinwalker
Thorfinn, you are not proficient with a bastard sword? should i still add it to your gear?
Also, what deity? and should i buy you basic adventuring gear?
@GM
When you say good characters with backstory? Good aligned, or just good written up characters?
Working on a barbarian/slayer modeled on Conan. Hope to get that together in time...

I don't have the EWP, but can still use it two-handed as a martial weapon. OOC I just wanted a backup for when I need to do damage in big chunks and/or cold Iron. I expect to be using claws and/or bite most of the time (I think I forgot the bite option in my offense section, could you add that in?). Same with basic adventuring gear, I just forgot. As for deity, the more he's researched his family's draconic heritage, the more he's found himself drawn to Apsu. He's really become quite fascinated with his dragon's blood. Might lead to a prestige class one day or something :) .
Okay. Cool. Will finish up tomorrow. Almost 12am here. =^^=
My fanglord will also prefer his claws. So much. I did not buy any weapons for him. Ranger/slayer. Claws doing the work. Going for the rending things. Also. He may or may not get "natural" claws by level 2. So he can use his shift ability on something else. =^^=
All this talk of claws is making me think my cat should take the claws trait just to fit in. I suppose I shall if we get a claw happy party.
I think I've finished my backstory. He's basically a devout desert-y country bumpkin experiencing the big wide world for the first time.
For as long as Aiden can remember, he has kept moving. Born to a Bedouin family in the Kelishite empire, the tribe would only pause for short periods, moving on before they could exhaust the oases they stopped at. The times he liked most were when they rested around cities, because he was enamored with the variety of people residing there. They were so varied from one another, and all were different from his tribe. It was in those cities that he first heard of the icy northlands, a place of deserts even colder than the Windswept Wastes at night. A land where all of the water was said to be solid, as if such a thing were possible!
Even ignoring the more fanciful notions (solid water? Ha!), he was still captivated by the tales and longed to see this land for himself. His people, like many nomadic tribes, were followers of the Cult of the Dawnflower and did not approve of his desire. Even when denied his so-called "foolish wishes" by the tribal elders, Aiden did not give up. Praying to the Sarenrae for guidance, he had a flash of divine (or more likely mundane) inspiration. Going back to the elders, he managed to sell his journey as bringing the Light of the Dawnflower to distant peoples who were unaware of Her Truth. Finally convinced, the acquiesced to his demand.
First he had to leave the Kelish Empire, which was easier said than done. Boxed in by the Godfall Mountains, Aiden first traveled south to the port city of Ur-Azarr. Upon arriving there, he saw the first thing in his life that left him dumbfounded: the sea. Stretching as far as the eye could see, from horizon to horizon, was more water than Aiden had thought existed in the whole world. His awe turned to dismay though when he attempted to drink from it and began to cough and hack. Water might taste funny, such was the way of water, but it should not have burned his throat like that. Taking ship to Taldor, he was surprised at how much water there was. It seemed no matter how far they traveled, there was always more of it. Much to his annoyance, and the sailors' amusement, no matter where they went the seawater was still undrinkable.
When they made landfall in southern Taldor, he was impressed at how green everything was. He had heard stories describing the lush vegetation, so he wasn't too surprised...aside from the trees. Those were enormous. They were so unlike the short and scraggly, stunted things back home that at first he didn't know what they were. And just like everything else in Taldor, they were so incredibly green. He eventually made his way to the village of Heldren, from which he hoped to set out north, and maybe finally see the lands that had inspired his journey.
My character's animal companion has claws.
I don't have claws... A reble is I.
I'm actually very tempted to mix my two character ideas and create a new one from those.
I'd still want to go Skinwalker but Bloodmarked or Nightskulk instead of Witchwolf (I'll need the Int). Would also mean losing claws.
The main reason for this is the large amount of people going for something similar to my idea already. Even if we'd all get in I'm not sure I'd enjoy a pack of very similar characters.
I'm thinking how much fun it would be to role play my Lawful Neutral investigator to deal with all the animal chaos with pets and claws and what have you. Sounds like a blast!

@Cuan: Green Force is fine as well as the feats you asked about.
@Seth: I'm talking about well written submissions, which I'm pleased to say everyone has done well with so far.
Keep an eye out for later today, I'll be posting a list of submissions just to have it all in one place. Recruitment is open until 11:59PM EST tonight.
Since i changed my character... i need to redo my submission... or would you rather have me stay with strix?
Not sure if I will be able to get a character fleshed out in time, so if I'm not in by the end of the day then best of luck to all.
Just a couple of tweaks Seth and I discussed (things we got our wires crossed on, not any actual changes to the comcept).

Orphaned at a young age, life had always been hard for Alexander. He knew his family had once been a prestige household of knights, known for upholding all that which should be the code of every knight, but had never met them himself. They had died shortly after he had been born, murdered by an unkown group and left to fend for himself. Thankfully, the boy had always been quick to make friends, able to find help here and there to get by. Not all wished to be his friend though, and those who wished to hurt him simply for someone to bully was just more fuel on the flame that was in Alex's heart. He yearned to be close to his family however he could, and after some begging to a few who had been befriended, Alexander found a trainer. Picking up fighting quickly, he continues to learn and strive to stand up for honor and justice as his family before him. Perhaps if he did, he could feel their presence with him, and then they would lead him to find their killers to face judgement.

May the best applicant's win everyone.
Here mine finally is, Melina Tharsdottir is ready for action.
Ended up going for Inquisitor (Green Faith Marshal/Sanctified Slayer) with Gunslinger (Bolt Ace). And she's still a Witchwolf, though the claws have become a back up plan. She is of Half Elven stock, which just means she looks like a Half Elf when not shifted.
Her youth was a simple one and not out of the ordinary in any way. In hindsight she figures her senses were probably already more accurate than those of the other children but back then she didn't have a clue. Sure, she was the only one who could smell the fresh pies at the baker's from the other side of town but she always assumed that was just an oddity. Everyone had something they were good at, this was hers.
It was during her early puberty that things started to change. In most things she resembled the other girls her age but for many others she'd be vastly different. She could for instance scarf down tremendous amounts of food without gaining in size. While she once more assumed this was just a quirk this all changed quite dramatically when she shifted for the first time at the age of 16.
It was an accident and she had been sitting outside, under the light of the moon, with a boy she liked. When suddenly wrecking pains came over her he very gently placed a hand on her back in order to comfort her. When she looked up at him with a toothy grin and greatly increased hairiness he jerked away and ran as if his life depended on it.
She was deeply ashamed and only blurted it out before she packed her stuff. Once that was done she explained it to her parents and then left For years she has roamed the woods of Taldor. From north to south and from east to west. She always remained shifted in the woods so she could visits town to buy supplies without having to fear some locals recognised her.
Recently she has started to move south and she's thinking of leaving Taldor. Her last stop is the town of Haldren.
Skinwalkers vs Witches! It sounds like a bad Sci-Fi Channel flick. lol
