From what I'm seeing it looks like we will have enough applicants to do 2 tables. I want to double check that we will have enough arcane/divine support but we for sure have enough front line power for 2 tables.


I'm an arcane support! =P

Are you looking at groups of six or four?


I was looking at groups of four but might take 5. We NEED more arcane support! Like badly...ITs Vorg and Origamidog at this point which I mean I guess that means they get in but I'd like some competition at that spot lol.


Hey, my witch is totally arcane support....

Yes sorry i lost your witch in the shuffel but your on my list now don't worry.


Looks like pad300 is planing on going wizard after 1 level of rogue. He may go arcane trickster as well.

Grand Lodge

I'm not trying to submit a second character but I have been sitting on a Sylvan False priest sorcerer is a little cleric, a little druid but mostly arcane support. If an extra arcan character is needed.

It looks something like this:

Neutral Medium Half-Elf Sorcerer 1;
Init 1; Senses Perception: +2
Defense
AC 11, touch 11, flat-footed 10
hp 9
Fort 2, Ref 1, Will 4
Offense
Speed 30 ft.
Statistics
Str 8, Dex 12, Con 14, Int 14, Wis 10, Cha 18
Base Atk + +0; CMB +-1; CMD 10
Feats False Focus; Spell Focus: Enchantment;
SQ Animal Companion; Bloodline Arcana; False Piety;
Skills Diplomacy +9; Knowledge (arcana) +6; Spellcraft +6; Use Magic Device +8;

Yes, it is an arcane trickster build, with a single level of rogue...With definite battlefield control overtones being a Air(smoke) elemental specialist...

Keldon is definitely in the arcane lane. I looked at the list of possibles before hand and said to myself, this needs arcane casters...


I don't get why people like arcane trickster so much. Giving up the chance at 9th 0r 8th level spells for ....sneak attack? is too high a cost in my book.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying don't do what you like, but I've never understood the draw for the class myself.


I have already submitted Amboy Yacolt but I could rework Edgerson if you need more Arcane.

I will work on it tonight. It should be ready by tomorrow.


I made Bevin an Archeologist, but I can adjust him to be a different archetype of Bard if that would fit better (I just thought the archeologist was particularly fitting given the themes of the campaign).


Here's an arcane caster I originally made for a Return of the Runelords campaign that went nowhere. I'm only starting to make the needed changes but they're very minor and shouldn't take long.

I'll modify some details of her backstory along these lines: Ambriel is leaving Magnimar for Sargava for a few years (or decades), waiting for the said embarrassing library scandal to be forgotten. Her interest in the Void as an element has led her to becoming interested in Lirgen as a potential source of further knowledge on the subject. She intends to do some initial research and planning in Sargava before trying to travel to the remnants of Lirgen to recover more information on the Void she suspects Lirgeni astronomers had discovered.

Ambriel is a School Savant Arcanist with the Void School Specialization. I'll need to consider it a bit more, but I figure she will focus mostly on control with some summoning.

I've got one I'm playing now and at least for me the Arcane Trickster is a thief with magic capabilities. From the things I've read AT fills the thief spot but it's no worse than any 6th level caster in the arcane spot.


When is the deadline for this? I'm interested in making a character as well, but might have to do some research on what is the best fit.

Arcane trickster doesn't really give up casting. With the feat that grants sneak attack you're just a single level behind wizard in casting and the highest level of casting is equal to an arcanist or sorcerer.

You prefer an arcane caster right? Any preference on what kind? Full caster? Not summoner\witch\bard\arcane trickster?

I kind of want to try to play a (chained) master summoner sometime. Not sure what's appropriate for this game though and there's already another summoner submitted.

I think I might have submitted a magus for serpent skull before, let me see if I can find that character. Turns out that character was a tiefling... But you prefer core races, right?


Edgerson is ready. Not my best work but I am cutting it thin on getting to work today before your deadline.

Good Luck everyone.


Gold: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 2) = 14x10=140 gp

I would prefer core races and full arcane casting ability.


For the role of arcane support I submit Samira Vellien, my half-elven sorceress.

Crunch Notes:

Female half-elf sorceress 1
Bloodline: Serpentine
Str 10, Dex 16, Con 14, Int 12, Wis 8, Cha 16
Feat: Weapon Finesse
1st-Level Spells Known: color spray, mage armor
Traits: Boarded in Mediogalti (campaign), Affable (social)
Gold: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5 x10

Background:

1) I'd like 5+ points that capture the concept and story of the character. More are welcome, but no less than five. 
Samira had always felt drawn to Sargava, like an itch in her brain she couldn't quite scratch. She tried reading about the region and listening to stories from travelers. She tried ignoring it and looking for odd jobs here and there, but nothing seemed to hold her interest.

In her searching, Samira discovered within herself a natural talent for sorcery. Her natural affection for snakes and reptiles showed in her magic, and she even taught herself how to grow fangs on command like a viper.

Her only anchor was the man she met and fell in love with, Marnel Sudry. She couldn't simply pack up and leave for whatever drew her to Sargava, she told herself, because Marnel was here. Finding him passed out in her bed next to another woman dissolved her last excuse. She gathered up what gold she had saved and embarked on a ship called the Jenivere to visit this strange, but somehow familiar, country.

2) Two goals that you'd like the character to accomplish in-game. 
Confront Marnel, to whom Samira never really said goodbye. Find out the true nature of her serpentine bloodline.

3) Two secrets, one the PC keeps to himself, and one kept from the PC. I'll come up with a third that both the character and player aren't aware of, in hopes of shocking surprises within the storytelling. 
Kept to herself - Part of Samira worries that she's on a fool's errand and that nothing in Sargava will be either familiar or friendly.
Kept from her - It isn't Sargava that Samira is unconsciously seeking-- it's the jungle around it. Samira's tainted blood is directly linked to serpentfolk cultists deep within the Mwangi Expanse.

4) 3-5 people that are tied to your PC by blood, love, rivalry, honor, etc. I'd like at least one enemy in a set of three or four, with no more than two for a set of five. 
Ally - Marnel Sudry, her one-time lover (until he drunkenly slept with another woman) for whom her feelings are... complicated
Enemy - Lily Alver, the other woman who had had her eye on Marnel for some time
Ally - Gelik Aberwhinge, long-winded gnome aboard the Jenivere. Samira is one of his most attentive listeners, constantly asking for stories of Sargava (even if they don't always agree with the ones she's heard from others).

5) Three key memories that define your character as the person they are at the time of submission. 
- Running her tongue for the first time over her fangs, which she had successfully and magically lengthened. Giddiness washed over her; it just felt so... right. As natural a part of her as her fingers.
- Staring dumbfounded at Lily, the woman who she knew lusted after her Marnel, lying in the bed she had shared with him so often. Her love had passed out in a drunken stupor, but what had happened first was all too obvious. "I never thought I could hate a snake," she told Lily coldly. "Until today." Tears brimming in her eyes, Samira turned and left without another word.
- Looking up with relief at the Jenivere as she boarded. It was a nice ship, but what the ship meant was far more important. It means I'm getting some answers.

I envision a definite Shadow over Innsmouth-type vibe for her in this game. Didn't focus too much on the crunch since you said it's not required, but I did list most of the build-related decisions.

Thanks, I was all done with the mechanical parts of my human bard. One fey-bonded gnome sorcerer coming up!


Rolling for gold: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 5) = 9


I'd like to submit, but am curious if the deadline is the end of March 12. Do we have until the end of tomorrow?


I was planning on ending this tomorrow afternoon.


Thanks. Is there a time zone on that afternoon?


EST(GMT -5)


Dropping out. Got in on another campaign and don’t want to over commit. Have fun all!


Slightly rushed Kenderella is ready to see the world. I might have missed something in my haste, so feel free to ask any questions you might have, and I'll try to do my best to answer them. I haven't statted up Enzi yet, but he's obviously a big cat.


I cleaned up the character (adding a backstory) and made an alias for Nalesa - Half-Elf Cleric (Devout Pilgrim) of Desna. All the info, including answers to DM Mathpro's background questions are now on her profile. Robert Henry already has her placed on his ordered list of submissions (via my original post); however the information is probably easier to read on the alias, here. Thanks, again, for you consideration. :)

Oh!

I'll try to think of something tonight then.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

HEY RYSKY! Glad to see you around the boards still!


Got an idea of a Mwangi character, if I can get it finished up by tomorrow I'll submit it. Thankfully no further schoolwork to do tonight or tomorrow morning, so I MAY actually stand a shot at finishing it if the children allow it.

Thankies ^w^

Glad to see you back.


Alright, I've made the essential changes to Ambriel's build and added the application questions at the bottom of her profile.

I'll still need to take another look at her spell book and gear to see if any changes are needed.

I'm also still weighing changing her feat to Breadth of Experience. Are you ok with that feat Mathpro?

Silver Crusade

*sees all the martial submissions, tries to think of a caster*

Dangit, was going Dwarf, why can't there be a Witch archetype that uses Wisdom...

Will start putting things together and see what gels, thinking Ravener Hunter (Inquisitor) or Ashiftah (Witch).

Well, there are always shamans, you know...

Silver Crusade

Eh, yeah, but aside from Hexes none of their stuff really grabs me.


There's the divine scourge cleric too (better spell list than shaman).

Silver Crusade

Neat!

*reads*

Aww, you lose channel energy and limited list of hexes (Evil Eye at least).

Silver Crusade

Sorry for being so meh, I'm not used to playing casters.

I appreciate the help and advice though ^w^

what if I told you that Jack Harrow is a Swashbuckler 1 progressing into Pact Wizard 5 and then Eldritch Knight?

I'd need to change some stats around, going from CHA to INT, but otherwise...

From 2 to 8 arcane casters that will get access to 9th level spells (counting the trickster and the potential EK, which could count for different roles as well). Suddenly we are the most numerous group. There are a few 6th level casters as well. With so many to choose between, hopefully DM Mathpro will be able to find what he wants among the applicants. Good luck to everyone and especially to Mathpro. I hope he'll find the people to make good and fun games for everyone.

Silver Crusade

Hehe ye, guess I’ll go Ravener Hunter and try to get something written up :3
