The survivors: an undead story (Inactive)

Inn and surrounding property


1 to 50 of 85 << first < prev | 1 | 2 | next > last >>

The gods have abandoned us. the dying man said to those that surrounded him, his face wracked with pain and suffering immensely. His lower abdomen, below the ribcage, was torn wide open, spilling his internal organs across his lap and onto the floor. Blood spit forth from his lips as he coughed, and he wheezed. I was not strong enough...to save you, to save myself. And because of my doubt, i have failed all of you His body shook and he gasped a final breath, before expelling it slowly, the light fading from his eyes as he took on the look of one looking far beyond, into the ether of death.

That...that was our last, best hope Johanna remarks snidely, and snorts as everyone looks at her, aghast at her bluntness. Well, it was. Let's face it, without Angar, we'd be dead and risen as the undead long before she says, sweeping her hands towards the walls. its not the walls that she is talking about, but the horde of undead that now roam the land unchecked.

As if to reinforce her point, several loud moans bellow from outside, several far away, with others nearby.

Be that as it may, we still have to carry on...harnell replies, hope filling his face momentarily until he winces and shakes his head. if we dont carry on, then we might as well slit our throats now and get it over with. He says, staring hard at Johanna, who holds his gaze a moment before looking away.

Carry on? with what!? we're out of food. out of water. Our main source of healing is dead, unless percius there can get over his shakes and summon up a bit of healing charm from his Lord? Marzel snaps from the shadows of the room, and a strange huddle of rags near the fire shakes in response.

Lynnl holds up her hands in an effort to keep the noise down before it rises too loud, garnering the attention of the undead that wander outside. Quiet! she hisses. We have some food. and we have water.

Sure, if there was only three of us. but there's 15 of us! That's not going to feed us through the night. Marzel snaps back the nearest food is 6 blocks away at the stockade. and water?! thats 8 blocks in the opposite direction. And it was delivered before...before all this happened!

a long, drawn out pause fills the air as everyone shifts, glancing at everyone else. The situation is hopeless, death is in the air...

...or is it?

********

howdy! if you read this far, youre intrigued. An undead survival adventure in time for Halloween?! say it isnt so!

so heres what im looking to do.

1st level adventure using pathfinder 1st edition rules, mixed with resource management.

Character creation

1st level
stats: roll 4d6, drop the lowest.
Max Hit points
Core races only
starting wealth: max wealth +50gps
one trait
alignment: i will allow one! evil aligned PC.

no unchained, no mystic.

also, to be fair, i will allow you to make PC that specializes in the undead, if you roll between 01-10 on a d100.

if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

This will be open until friday or saturday. id like to start this by the end of this week, start of next week.

thanks!!!!


Let's see what we come out with:

STR: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 3, 2) = 14 Drop lower = 12
DEX: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5, 1) = 10 Drop lower = 9
CON: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 3, 2) = 10 Drop lower = 9
INT: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 1, 4) = 9 Drop lower = 8
WIS: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 5, 6, 5) = 19 Drop lower = 16
CHA: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 6, 1) = 18 Drop lower = 17

Great charisma and wisdom, good strength, and lousy dexterity, constitution, and intelligence...

Specialized: 1d100 ⇒ 93 = Nothing to see here...

Recommendations?

I never said that the stats were rolled in order.

Think I will build and inquisitors.

So if we didn't roll between 1-10 on the d100, does that mean we can't go cleric or paladin with positive energy?

Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 1, 2) = 7 6

100: 1d100 ⇒ 1

Well, wasn't doing too back until those two ones ending up with a 6. I wasn't originally planning on an undead focus as I had a dwarf Inquisitor I had made for a Walking Dead of Golorian Kazgar Shieldsmith. I was planning on modifying and I still may. Need to figure out what to do with that 6.


If selected, this will be a very interesting character.
===========================
Belleza is a star. Beautiful and charming, she has been the face and voice of the church of Shelyn since her 8 years old. Now, at 16, she has become the pinnacle of charm and beauty in a maiden, what an evangelist of Shelyn must be.
Her rhetoric and beauty have converted many people to the flock of the eternal rose, but so far no man has even caught the eye of her, a devout follower of the eternal maiden.
Armed with her charm, training, an expensive and beautiful dress and accompanying jewelry, she is perfectly equipped to deal with a new day in the service of Shelyn, and her task of converting people to her church.
And completely unprepared for an undead invasion.
============================
Yes, it will be a challenge, but I think she can be a good character for your adventure. She is quite unable to fight, and most of her spells and abilities don't work on undead, but I think she can help her fellow survivors by supporting, healing and boosting them.
By the way, her archetype lets her fulfill a bard's role besides her cleric one.
Her character sheet is here.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments, and I hope you want to see her dealing with the undead as much as I,

Couple questions as I ponder a character

1) How long of a game are you planning?
2) How many people are you looking to accept? Are you looking for average party size or are you wanting to fill out all 15 slots?

=================================================
BACKGROUND
=================================================
The people know of Herb, just not much about him. He's a loner who used to live in a shed in the forest nearby. Because he usually kept to himself he earned the nickname Herb the Hermit. Those who passed through the forest sometimes saw him and he usually returned a friendly wave, but that's about it. Because of this everyone just assumed he was a Druid of sorts and did his "one-with-nature"-thing. His long beard and the dirty long robes supported any stereotype.
But he wasn't and he didn't. He was a devout follower of Gozreh, the god of the storm and sky. His shrine was a wooden construction near a small lake the town's children also use for a refreshing bath in the summer.
He spent all day long praying. For him this has the form of tending to the fauna and flora, listening to the wind and watching the birds in the sky.
This was until a few days ago, when the Undead came and he had to pack his things and flee into town. Now he's one of the last 15 and his minor ability to create water by Gozreh's will, is about all he can bring to the table.

If I could take a 2nd trait it would be one that makes Survival a class skill. Because I can't, I want to ask the following: May I get Survival as a class skill in exchange for one or two of (Appraise, Diplomacy, Linguistics)?

While this is a cleric, this is definitely not an anti-undead build. With his low cha channeling vs. undead would be a very bad call.

17/16/15/12/11/10

Background:

Gul was born to the Dushikh tribe, the daughter of the tribe’s stronghold and a bard who managed to talk his captivity into an altogether more comfortable affair. Growing up in their stronghold, the half-orc was steeped in the ways of her Orcish kin. But her survival had always been contingent on the protection offered by the prestige of her mother, for none would risk the ire of the shaman. Gul did all she could to prove herself a true orc, up and to mastering the use of the butchering axe. But it was never enough to truly belong.

Thus, when her mother was mortally wounded in an ambush on a group of travelers which went horrifically wrong, Gul slipped away into the night. She didn’t trust her tribe on how she would be treated without a patron. She decided that if the orcs would not accept her, then perhaps humans would. If nothing else the majority of them seemed weak enough that they might well pay her to be a mercenary.

Little did she know that the town she wandered into would have such a dire undead-problem...

Half-Orc Destined Primalist Bloodrager. Sadly no spells until lvl4. But she has a butchering axe and knows how to use it.


on a side note regarding my submission of Herb the Hermit. I took the Wolf domain from the druid animal and terrain domains, because the text says

Quote:
Other nature-themed classes with access to domains may select an animal or terrain domain in place of a regular domain.

I took this as a cleric of a god of nature should be allowed these domains. If you as a GM disagree, I'd take the separatist archetype, which allows any domain as your second domain.

more of a generic city location. but if you need something hard and fast, then we could say outside of Waterdeep in Forgotten Realms, just to make it interesting.

firearms will be early.

** spoiler omitted **

Half-Orc Destined Primalist Bloodrager. Sadly no spells until lvl4. But she has a butchering axe and knows how to use it.

have axe, will survive!


What else in life is needed? If there is ever a problem your axe can’t solve then your problem is that your axe is too small.

——

And by the way, what I would do with a ‘5.’

* Lore, Nature or Lunar Oracle. Cha for AC, Ref, CMD instead of Dex.
* Lame Curse (-10 movement)
* Low dex means low Initiative, Ride, Stealth, Acrobatics

The character has a peg-leg. Lost years ago, he hobbles around as best he can.

And because I’m thinking about it...The character was a pirate who was the ship’s doctor, dentist, and cook. Why level 1? Because the one and only time he had to get into a real fight, he lost his leg to a ballista. Has given up the pirate life and returned to land...only to be stuck in a zombie apocalypse. And with the bum leg, fleeing isn’t an option.

That means 17/14/12/12/12/5

Example Pirate
Str (12) Life on the seas is rough, and weaklings need not apply
Dex (5) Used to be a 15 until a ballista took your leg off at the knee
Con (14) Only the hard can eat hardtack
Int (12) Smart enough to not have to speak like a pirate
Wis (12) Is that a ship in the fog? Probably...
Cha (19) Primary Spell Caster

And if you feel the need to melee beyond your class, then worship Desna. Lvl1 Feat divine Fighting Style. Now use Cha for Hit and Damage with a Starknife

4d6 - 2 ⇒ (2, 6, 2, 5) - 2 = 13
4d6 - 1 ⇒ (6, 5, 6, 1) - 1 = 17
4d6 - 1 ⇒ (1, 3, 2, 6) - 1 = 11
4d6 - 1 ⇒ (4, 1, 4, 4) - 1 = 12
4d6 - 4 ⇒ (3, 3, 4, 4) - 4 = 10


RIZZENMAGNUS,

You seem to have missed my earlier posted questions.

Couple questions as I ponder a character

1) How long of a game are you planning?
2) How many people are you looking to accept? Are you looking for average party size or are you wanting to fill out all 15 slots?

1)it's open ended. Until there reaches a point where the party will survive...or everyone in the inn dies.

2) 4-6 players...i see the other NPCs as open ended potential PCs that the players could fall back on should their pc die


4d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 4, 3) = 13 = 12
4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 1, 4) = 10 = 9
4d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5, 4) = 13 = 12
4d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 2, 5) = 13 = 12
4d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 3) = 9 = 8
4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 1, 5) = 17 = 16

Undead Stuff: 1d100 ⇒ 10 Yes

I see a very suboptimal fun character in my future. Will hopefully get a character in here before the deadline!


Oof. 13 point buy. But can be anti-undead. Look forward to seeing how you can leverage that:


@GM: I've noticed some negative feelings on the boards towards the classes from Occult Adventures, so would you have any issue with a spiritualist?


Completed Characters
* Gul: Half-Orc Bloodrager
* Derlan: Halfling Kineticist (Fire)
* Belleza: Human Cleric of Shelyn
* Herb: Human Cleric of Gozreh

SQ Acid Dart 6/day, Studied Target +1
=================================================
SPECIAL ABILITIES
=================================================
Class features
Acid Dart (Sp) As a standard action, you can unleash an acid dart targeting any foe within 30 feet as a ranged touch attack. This acid dart deals 1d6 points of acid damage. You can use this ability 6 times per day.
Domains Earth (Caves Subdomain)
Spontaneous Casting You can channel stored spell energy into summoning spells that you haven't prepares ahead of time. You can "lose" any prepared spell in order to cast any Summon Nature's Ally spell of the same spell level or lower
Studied Target (Ex) A nature fang gains the slayer's studied target class feature. A nature fang can study an opponent to gain a +1 bonus on Bluff, Knowledge, and Sense Motive; a +1 bonus on Perception, and Survival checks attempted against that opponent; and a +1 bonus on weapon attack and damage rolls against it. The DCs of nature fang class abilities against that opponent increase by 1. If a slayer deals sneak attack damage to a target, he can study that target as an immediate action, allowing him to apply his studied target bonuses against that target (including to the normal weapon damage roll). A nature fang can only maintain these bonuses against one opponents at a time; these bonuses remain in effect until either the opponent is dead or the nature fang studies a new target. The nature fang may discard this connection to a studied target as a free action, allowing him to study another target in its place.

Racial
Fearless (Ex) Halflings receive a +2 racial bonus on saving throws against fear. This bonus stacks with the bonus granted by Halfling Luck.
Halfling Luck (Ex) Halflings receive a +1 racial bonus on all saving throws.
Keen Senses (Ex) Halflings receive a +2 bonus on Perception skill checks.
Warslinger Halflings are experts at the use of the sling. Halflings with this racial trait can reload a sling as a free action. Reloading a sling still requires two hands and provokes attacks of opportunity. This racial trait replaces the sure-footed racial trait.
Weapon Familiarity (Ex) Halflings are proficient with slings and treat any weapon with the word "halfling" in its name as a martial weapon.
=================================================
BACKGROUND
=================================================
Gabriel is a 15 years old halfling boy, son of two goat farmers. While he loves the goats, he spent most of his short life playing and just being a child. His favorite playing ground were the caves in the nearby mountains which he knows better than anyone. He used to spend all day exploring them, even staying overnight.
Since the invasion began, he advocated for leaving the village and hiding in his caves, where they would be safe. But his father wasn't convinced and now it seems too late. Gabriel's mother is not with them, but is probably safe, as she and his brother were out of town several days' rides away.
Gabriel spends his time in the 2nd floor watching and studieing the enemy every moment through the window.


He's a ranged damage dealer, as good as it gets with a small sling... Could be a controller later on being a full caster.


Here is a link. Basically a summoner but with a phantom and psychic spells instead of arcane.

I think I have someone that will fit well. Meet Valin Kal the inquisitor.

Light backstory about Valin's adult life as I don't know about the world yet:

Valin Kal is a worshiper of a warrior god (one that works for the setting). For most of his adult life ha has severed at the side of a Magisters (a travelling judge/ investigator) protecting them and training with them before he meet his unfortunate demise. For a warrior of his calibre, he is reasonably well studied in the types of criminals he has most commonly come across. Valin is a pious and serious officer of the law and a staunch defender of those around him.

A slayer can only maintain these bonuses against 2 opponents at a time; these bonuses remain in effect until either the opponent is dead or the slayer studies a new target. If a slayer deals sneak attack damage to a target, he can study that target as an immediate action, allowing him to apply his studied target bonuses against that target (including to the normal weapon damage roll). The slayer may discard this connection to a studied target as a free action, allowing him to study another target in its place.


This is Robert Henry's applicant, I was waffling between paladin, samurai and a barbarian. Finally went with the barbarian.

I haven't been in Waterdeep since Neverwinter Nights, so a little rusty on the setting.

Kunala is from the north, specifically the Savage frontier A young Illuskan Barbarian, come to the big town to see the sights and possibly find work.

I will have more in the description soon.


Ok, I've got Kazgar Shieldsmith updated and ready to go.
