Wrath of the Righteous (Inactive)

Game Master Schiffer

Mekel, I am going to go with the half elf wild caller summoner. We will see how well this works. The Riftwarden Orphan trait for the archmage path means I am adopted, so I could have been adopted by your family. Go ahead an pick whatever race you want. I think for flavor I would use the adopted trait to get a racial trait from whatever my family is, so just let me know what race you decide.

GM: Do know know exactly where you read that, I can't find anything specific on it. I do know that the barrier between the worlds was always thin there, so I could imagine that they would be able to more easily communicate and eventually worship these otherworldly beings.

Oooh Thomas, I like that idea... was thinking half-elf oracle, but I really like the idea of "brothers" that look distinctly different but are still "family"

Yay thats fine Thomas. And i did find it. It's in the background for a minor NPC in this AP

Can I read these spoilers?
Currently I'm thinking maybe a Forgemaster Dwarven Cleric or (if ACG is allowed) maybe trying out a Kellid Shaman?

whats ACG?

and yay its chill if you guys read these spoilers as long as Thomas is okay with it. He might you want to find out what we are talking about in game

found the ACG. I'd be fine seeing how that works out. go for it

Yes go ahead and read the spoilers. Apart from finishing his backstory, Andlat the summoner is complete. Harakani if you want to to write you backstory and just include me getting adopted, I'll tie mine in and we will be good to go.

On a side note I will be traveling a lot this weekend, so my posting will be occasional and probably short. My traits are riftwarden orphan, and an adopted trait tying into whatever race Harakani picks.

Also this is Foradass, my Eidelon. One question GM, I there seems to be some argument as to weather the Eidelon goes on the turn of the summoner, or if they have their own separate initiative. I don't care either way, so just let me know which one I should plan on doing.

I think it'll be easier to have you guy go together, then you don;t have to try to keep track in the first round if and such

oh, and now that you are invested in a summoner i'll state something that always scares my players (you will most likely not mind and maybe already planning on doing it). Each evolution needs to be more than just a boost to your eidolon's power, it needs to be shown in other ways too. For instance, his +8 perception evolution, where does this +8 come from? I just enjoy watching people create this life form :)

Do you mean where does it come from as far as why he would have it, or are you looking for a physical description of what he would look like, given that he has +8 perception? Or both?

I had planned on the physical description, and I had an idea for why he has certain skills, like I for example gave him knowledge nature, and handle animal as class skills to tie into the nature theme.

a little bit of both. Don;t just give him something to give it too him. Have a reason behind it. Big eyes? antenna? something different?

He being a creature of nature would work too with the knowledge check.

I basically had my real life players do this because i was trying to get them to stop power building their characters and put some thought into their characters past the character sheet.

You've been doing this fine (all of you have), i just like seeing it with the Eidolon too

Okay. Three option so far. Would like to get people's opinions (and hopefully resolve the deadlock in my own head)
All just ideas so far, feedback gratefully accepted.

OPTION #1
Morgrym Dolgringrun
LG Male Dwarf Cleric (Forgemaster) of Torag 1
Str 14, Dex 13, Con 14, Int 12, Wis 16, Cha 6
Feat: Heavy Armour Proficiency
Traits: Touched by Divinity (Torag, Protection, Shield 1.day), Glory of Old (Regional):+1 trait bonus on saving throws vs spells, spell-like abilities, and poison.
Skills: 4 points (Knowledge:religion, knowledge: planes, Heal, Craft armoursmith)

Gruff, and dismissive of humans, elves, halflings... well everyone not a dwarf. This does not include his (adopted) brother Andlat. The two have a complicated but loving relationship, with Morgrym providing the voice of wisdom and Andlat the charismatic front-man.
Morgrym does not make friends easily, and Andlat is pretty much his only friend.
Andlat and Morgrym's parents were in the same party, and Morgrym's parents looked after Andlat while Morgrym's parents went on their fateful mission.

Role in the party
Restoration abilities, item crafter, great AC, crazy good resistances.

I like it :D

Actually, was typing up option #2 and I think I am more and more liking option #1... what do people think?

I already have an avatar for a Morgrym Dolgringrun, which is why I picked the name

I did have two other options.
#2 was a Tiefling Alchemist rescued by Andlat's parents (rather than an adopted brother) and would be more of a bruce wayne/alfred relationship I think.

#3 was a Sarkorian half-orc Heirophant. Cannot for the life of me decide whether it should be cleric, shaman or druid. I think the Menhir Savant archetype might be enough to push me to druid on that one.

im just kinda waiting for our Cleric and summoner to be ready to go. If you have your guy made and basically ready, go ahead and post on the gameplay forum. There will be a small update soon for those waiting to bury Mekel and Thomas

I also like it. Dwarf and half elf. Almost like Gimli and Legolas.

BTW! Dorotea didn't really do much as far as story goes (didn't stick around long enough) and being she didn't really die....she never existed.

Sorry guys - board ate my post as I was entering the character.

Getting there.
Most of the time Dwarves seem to be played with a Scottish Accent - everyone okay if I do that?

GM: favoured class bonus for dwarves is +domain ability uses.
Would you be okay it grant foregmaster a Runeforger equivalent?

Cleric: Select one domain power granted at 1st level that is normally usable a number of times per day equal to 3 + the cleric's Wisdom modifier. The cleric adds +1/2 to the number of uses per day of that domain power.

Runeforger (Su)
A forgemaster may inscribe mystical runes upon a suit of armor, shield, or weapon as full-round action, using this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + her Intelligence modifier.

thats fine mister dwarf

Oh aye lad! Then I think I can start playing. How d'you want to introduce us then?

I should have clarified that it was a bad Scottish accent.

I'll just hold off to check none of our players are Scottish :)

Guess I could go 'straulian if you want.

You where most likely following the barbarian when he charge into battle. He's faster so it makes sense that he got there before you. Just introduce yourselves with that in mind. Also, you guys do remember everything that happened about and that you have been battling vermin and the like while you are down here.

@Hegron: read Alter Self
@GM: have we also taken damage = to con mod?

@GM: was the that's fine to the scottish accent or the runeforeger favoured class thing?

both and con mod

Ok, so the alter self one may be even better for Hegron - Darkvision and more strength, I mean... :D

What do you guys think? Align weapon is also pretty good, though STR on a Barbarian is always... Well... Strength on a Barbarian.

I may claim that one if no one wants it.

EDIT: Do we have any idea on durations, etc?

They're all good. When a high powered levitate/fog combo is your weakest option you're in luck.

Andlat, Nossac.
If you're okay, I'm ready to come in. I want to buy some rope and do a little formatting, but should be good.

Getting there.

Most of the time Dwarves seem to be played with a Scottish Accent - everyone okay if I do that?

I'd feel weird if they didn't have a bad scottish accent. I know that's how I play all mine. hehe

I have updated my sheet with our last name and my adopted racial trait, Deep guardian. SO I am ready to go.

Sorry Nossac, my gear is listed below.

just waiting on our two new characters to enter and i'll post on the gameplay

It seems I had forgotten to add my backstory, so I added it, GM I have one more question, since I was raised by dwarves, should I swap out the Elven language I get for Dwarvish?

I think that would make sense. Let's go with that.

Personally, i have always thought the artifice domain to be kinda dumb....Morgrym you get to convince me otherwise now!

No.
No it's dumb.

There's a mythic ability that lets me switch it out at Tier 6... which is about where it might actually start to be useful.

lol! :D

rofl

semester exams.....Had to sing Frech Christmas songs.....

Are you guys resting??

Hegron had suggested so, but it is up to the group.

I believe Nossac was keep track of XP. Being you guys "fought" critters on your way here you guys are at the same XP

I have us at 900xp currently.
