No putting starting gold together.


Male Human Expert 2/Alchemist 1/Warrior 1

I suspect you're not a fan of buying partially charged wands?

Also, could you explain the starting circumstances a little? Where do we start, is there some sort of town we should be in, do we know a little about what's going to happen next, what's the general area like, stuff like that would be good for fluff creation.


Also, roll your starting gold here.

The plan is everyone comes up with characters by tomorrow or maybe over the weekend. I'll start things off of Sunday after everyone has approved characters.

Plot time!

For whatever reason your character chose, you took a job as a caravan guard. A war with organized greenskins made the caravan less profitable as the months went on. About a year making the same runs with the other PCs, the caravan moved on to less dangerous clientele. As you were sitting around drinking in the tavern wondering what to do next, you were approached by an officer in the local militia (aka nobleman).

str: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 5) = 13
dex: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 5) = 11
con: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 6) = 10
int: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 1) = 7
wis: 3d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 2) = 10
cha: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 6) = 16
race: 1d7 ⇒ 5
bloodline: 1d39 ⇒ 35

So you're sitting around a table and a half-orc sorcerer nobleman approaches you. When asked about his sorcery, he claims to be a descendant of earth genies. He convinces you to escort him up to one of the forts for a mission. 10 gold each now, 10 gold when you get there and you can choose to stay for the mission from there. You all said yes.

Just to be sure, the Kinetic Chirugeon Archetype is available, yeah?

We need a Healer!
I'm gonna play a healer in this here game tonight.
He won't be that fast.
And he won't be that strong.
But he'll stop us from looisng the night.

*Wanders off Humming the Tune to 'I need a Hero.'


The chirugeon is authorized

starting Gold: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 4, 6) = 15*10


Hi Grey!

Here's the link to Bloodrager - the Crossblooded archetype is at the bottom. I wanted to combine Crossblooded with Spelleater (they don't replace the same abilities and can be combined by rules).

My question, however, is on the bloodlines of the rager - I imagine that, like the sorcerer, you would want to roll to find out them. I just wondered if I could choose at least one of them (Draconic) so I could later on go for the prestige class "Dragon Disciple" (lol I know... Just making my terrible gnome worse by the minute. Trying to make it "a little" decent at least haha).

The bloodlines available to a bloodrager are Aberrant, Abyssal, Arcane, Black Blood, Celestial, Destined, Draconic, Elemental, Fey, Infernal, Kyton and Undead. If I could choose, in this adventure, I'd choose Draconic (like mentioned before) and maybe Celestial, Abyssal or Undead. But I could make the others work too if needed lol.

Let me know!

Rolling for gold (level 1):

3d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 6) = 17 x 10 = 170

I'm a little confused as to the total of gold. We're level 2 - if I want the 2 levels to be of bloodrager, would I roll 3d6 again? Usually we'd get like 1000 gold when start at level 2 (link) but since you told the game is harder, I imagine you wanted to tune our gold down, right?


Male. Mostly. Human. Mostly. Archaeologist

Cool. I'll get building in a bit.


well being that im extremely average my character's name is bob he is a fighter his starting gold is

gold: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 4) = 14 * 10 = 140 gp

he was a former soldier and just got fet up with never getting a promotion so he quit


Remember level 2. So two levels of rolling for fighter.


gold: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 4) = 14 * 10 = 140 gp

gold: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 3) = 15 * 10 = 150

total gold is 290gp


Male. Mostly. Human. Mostly. Archaeologist

Gold: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 6) = 8 - 80gp.


GreyPlauge, when you get some time, please try to answer my questions :)


For the blood rager questions: roll a d6. If you get a six, you're a rare crossblooded sorcerer. The point of all this is you get only the choices your character would have gotten growing up. Thinking cross breeders are more rare than 1 in 6, but I hate saying no.

You would then have to roll for both bloodlines. Once you make these rolls, you're locked in.

Did anyone else have questions I missed from the recruitment page? Has everyone who claimed a spot posted here yet? What's the rules for partially charged wands?


1d6 ⇒ 2

Not crossblooded... As for the bloodline:

1d12 ⇒ 2

Abyssal... This will be... Interesting

Second roll for gold:

3d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 6) = 14 x 10 = 140

170 + 140 = 310 total gold


Building him like a lava gnome, spell eater bloodrager. Horrible, btw lol


Roll call, who is in and what character type?

I was going to go with Mark of Slavery since it fits the background I've come up with.


No on drawbacks. Working up the starting narrative. I'll post it tomorrow afternoon some time and then we'll be on the once a day schedule (minus weekends).


str: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 2) = 8
dex: 3d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 3) = 12
con: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 6) = 10
int: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 6) = 12
wis: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 5) = 12
cha: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 2) = 14
race: 1d7 ⇒ 3

I don't think my rolls saved last night, did they appear now?


Looks like I'm a gnome rogue.


Starting Gold: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 1, 2) = 13 level 1
Starting Gold: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 3, 6) = 14 level 2

gold = (13+14)x10 = 270

Appearance:
A lanky Half-Orc most often seen wearing a hat, Darilak doesn’t look especially exceptional unless he activates his powers. Then he is a maelstrom of water and ice, ready to destroy.

Darilak’s green skin is a touch darker than usual thanks to spending much of his life in the burning city of Katapesh. His hair remains dark despite the blasting sun he has lived in, and the heavy canines that many Half-Orcs feature aren’t too prominent on Darilak. Even his eyes are a more human brown, reflecting, perhaps, the loss of Darkvision that he has suffered.

The most noticeable feature is Darilak’s right arm, covered in heavy tattoos of Fire Ink. The strange, mystic patterns posses a certain power of their own, and the Fire Ink seems to enhance these. Darilak’s whole arm and hand glow like a torch, and as such he usually keeps them covered unless in a dark place. More tattoos cover other parts of his body, including his face, but weren’t enhanced with Fire Ink before his freedom.

Personality:
Darilak is a quiet man, although typically calm and friendly with it. He is usually unfailingly polite to people he knows and strangers alike. Beneath the calm surface, however, is a fierce desire for personal freedom. Second to that is a taught desire to succeed, as failing carried harsh penalties when he was child.

Thanks to his watery affinity Darilak combines offence, healing and support abilities, but is poor at close range fighting. He tends to hang back and pound an enemy as needed, occasionally using his Slick ability to deny them an area or force them to move across it slowly. When needed he moves in and uses Kinetic Healing to keep his allies (and himself) in the fight.

Background:
Born in Cheliax, Darilak is the result of a breeding program to create...something. He is almost certain there is infernal blood somewhere in his make-up, but has been told there may also be several other strange creatures and beings. Darilak isn’t sure finding out would be a good idea, though.

As a child he was tattooed with sacred signs in an attempt to boost his abilities, and even with the potent Fire Ink along one arm, but it failed dismally and he was sold to a slave trader heading for Katapesh. What the trader had spotted that his former owners had not was that Darilak wasn’t a failed project - his abilities simply weren’t fire based, or those powers were sealed away. He was gifted in manipulating water, however, and the trader made a small fortune selling him in the Dark Markets.

As a slave, Darilak was treated reasonably well. He was valuable, after all, especially once he learned the healing arts. And he worked well as a bodyguard - with a decent set of armour and his Water Shroud he was hard to hit, and his watery abilities hit more often than someone lacking co-ordination should expect.

Eventually, Darilak’s master died of old age, and Darilak was in theory to passed to his successor when his estate was bought. The Half-Orc, however, had no desire for another master. He escaped, using what valuable he could scrounge up to buy passage away from the city with little more than what he could carry on his back.

His abilities soon found him work as a caravan guard. Few people wanted to turn away someone who could heal wounds, after all. Now that job is done, however, and the gold gone. But another job escorting a nobleman should pay for a few more suppers...


I'll step out, guys! Can't make it work. Have fun you all!


Gameplay is up!

Any problems with my sheet before I post?

And just to clarify...we simply post what we want to do, and you post the dice rolls and such?


Yeah.

No problems, but it's not really a core pathfinder world. There's probably a place called cheliax that has the same history of whatever pathfinder says it does, but don't be surprised if you run into some gnoll chelaxians.


Crap I mean no. No problems with your sheet. I was busy at work and I thought it said is my sheet ok.
