Into the Abyss

Game Master Brolof

Dragons are great. I hope the party winds up with at least one.

(Especially if I'm in it. Who doesn't want to make friends with a dragon?)

Also, even if the party ends up more Good than not, I hope we end up with at least one nongood or evil teammate (though hopefully one who is actually committed to teamwork). Keeps things interesting, especially if they have a well fleshed out philosophy. I've always thought that a little alignment tension (not to the point of breaking up the party or derailing the adventure ofc) really helps the characters involved define themselves.

GM, out of sheer curiosity, could I take the Jotunblood template, for a cyclops?

If so, I think I might go with a half-fiend, jotunblood cyclops which would be CR 11, and leave me with 3 class levels.

Ah, if the party ends up being all dragons, I swear I'll make my card a Kobold :p

Well, I for one would probably have "prevent the party of mostly mortal but all mythic murder hobos from killing things that should not be killed, like non Qlippoth demon lords, especially if red headed and generally charming" as a sidequest.

My recent elevation to the nobility of the Midnight Isles high society isnt worth much if Qlippoths eat the Abyss, I also like living, am fairly fond of mortals and am presumably under direct orders from Lady Shamira to remove tentacles with extreme prejudice.

As such, I should be the most cooperative Succubus without a redemption arc that is semi plausible. Technically, I am beyond morality anyway.

Concerning my proclivity to speak while shooting, well, subject to GM approval I could trashtalk the enemy/inform the enemies of their many objective shortcomings telepathically instead :).

The ambassador from hell sounds pretty cool, then we would have one charming lady trying to woo the intrepid heroes to the Abyss, and one presumably also charming devil to guide them to hell. Add a Saerenraen and we have a 3 way alignment tug of war.
And no, I am totally not aiming at seducing Hells Ambassador to the Abyss, because such a feat would absolutely not massively elevate me in status.
All claims to that effect are just utterly baseless inferno-reactionary propaganda!!!
Or alternatively irrelevant bickering from dear Auntie Vellexia, who for some reason thinks that I stole her portrait or something...

And a True Neutral bard.

Edit: If I don't die putting all those tons of mechanical info into the alias, that is.

Sorry if I've missed anyone or anything, I'm not trying to slight anyone. This was a list based solely on whether there was a backstory/crunch and more a link list for the GM to quickly go to these sheets.

So two undead... Immune to positive energy, immune to morale bonuses and immune to mind-affecting effects - such as Inspire Courage, Heroism, Good Hope, etc.

Before some of you jump with "but Inspire Courage is NOT a morale bonus", I know, it isn't - but it is mind-affecting.

I hope at least the rest of you would like to have me around :p

Ahh, forgive my ignorance. I didn't realize until now you were making a bard. I hadn't read your post stating as much, so I thought your concern was more the healing and mind-affecting abilities of the undead more accurately, not because you were going to try to inspire us and fail. Perhaps if the whole party is immune, you could be an inspiratory bard dishing out inspire bonuses, or a clerical bard dishing out sacred bonuses?

My (Storm Dragon) character is "Abe no Toshiro". Aasimar(?) Arcanist

I noticed this with 30 seconds to go before the 1hr cutoff, so I didn't get to link to your account before I updated it :( Darn cutoff. I did manage to quickly get the name in there though.

Sorry if I've missed anyone or anything, I'm not trying to slight anyone.

Don't worry, I didn't feel hurt or anything, it was just the right moment to point out I was gonna apply with a TN character - something out of my comfort zone.

Perhaps if the whole party is immune

Also no problems with this, or everyone being difficult to heal. I just wanted to know in advance so as to not spent precious feat slots on useless things. Bards have many archetypes which grant many different substitutes for Inspire Courage and that are cool to play. Dirge Bard and Dwarven Scholar are on my 'B plan' list.

I suspect whatever party we end up with, we'll need to make some build adjustments after the final picks to make sure we mesh well (and aren't all over the map in terms of power level).

There are more then enough non-undead and non-immune beings applying for this adventure.
Bard will be fine.

Definitly. We certainly have enough tools to cover all bases.

I honestly have no real idea of my "powerlevel".

I have no real concept of what a peak munchkin could come up with given these rules. It is probably much more powerful then a Succubus sniper.

One could probably query a monster database, and then rank them by "feats per CR" and "point buy by CR" pick whatever is stronkest, Slap primalist on it and max munchkin from there.

** spoiler omitted **

Thanks for the IC response :) Wish I could respond in-character at length but still working on completing the submission first.

I was a bit in dubio on which character concept to go for as I had two for nearly the same mechanical idea, but the short of it is that I'll probably go with a female paladin of Faylana, who elected to stay behind in the Midnight Fane somewhere during the events of WOTR. Ever since, she's become a gladiator of sorts in the arena of Alushinyrra. Both because it appeals to her warrior nature and that of her goddess, but also as a pseudo-deterrent, to keep showing the demons that the normal mortals can fight back in force, and that opening the rift to invade Golarion again is a very, very bad idea. That it allows her to keep killing demons while honing her skills is a nice bonus, for that time she might eventually leave to return home.

(Yes, I admit I've been playing too much metroid dread and just had to make a female badass warrior of sorts vaguely inspired by that much awesomeness!)

Oh, and since it looks like the apocalypse is happening in the story by Qlippoth invasion, I don't think she'll make any fuss about teaming up with evil characters or the like. Save the planes first and all :)

Seriously considering a shabti horizon walker with a favored terrain/terrain mastery/terrain dominance of the Abyss who's been fighting to survive the Abyss as long as he can remember.

A question: How does the "You cannot, for any reason, gain additional attacks at their highest attack bonus from more than one source, no matter how many such abilities are in effect. (Example: haste, champion’s strike abilities, etc.)" interact with, say, the Zen Archery Monk's flurry ability and their ki pool ability to add an additional attack by spending a ki point? Does haste still stack with two-weapon fighting? Does haste still stack with rapid shot?

A 3pp request: Spell-less Ranger from Kobold Press.

And how does that work with natural attacks? Because it might mean scrapping my build…right now I have claw/claw/flurry/bite/gore/slam. Ie: a natural attack build

Flurry gives a penalty, as does Rapid Shot and Two-Weapon Fighting. Those stack with each other. Spending a ki pool ability and then also using haste wouldn't stack. I'll rule feats such as Manyshot don't count as "abilities", so Manyshot and Haste would stack. Also, that ranger looks perfectly fine, basically just an archetype of Ranger.

And how does that work with natural attacks? Because it might mean scrapping my build…right now I have claw/claw/flurry/bite/gore/slam. Ie: a natural attack build

A natural attack build is fine, since each of those counts as separate attacks.

I think I am done.
Pretty sure I forgot some numbers somewhere.

Also, yikes the formatting. Will put the crunch into a Google Doc somewhere, it is very hard to audit due to the way it comes out here.

Would prefer to do full audit once I know if I am selected :).

Items loadout, Skills, spell selection on the rifle, one feat choice, one background trait choice and one trickster path choice are open to revision, based on party needs, but this version should be close to the final.

Brolof, unsure if my question was missed, but could you check it out(around 12am), ad let me know if that template is approved or not?

Saw it, meant to reply, never did. Yes that's a fine template.

Thank you for the answer.

Also as an update. Dropping from Monk 1 / Fighter 9 to Monk 1 / Antipaladin 3 / Fighter 6

This is because this build relies really heavily on fear. And the Antipaladin takes away fear immunity from enemies. This keeps the vast majority of abilities from being ineffective

If I form a Hunter's Bond with companions, per below

The first is a bond to his companions. This bond allows him to spend a move action to grant half his favored enemy bonus against a single target of the appropriate type to all allies within 30 feet who can see or hear him. This bonus lasts for a number of rounds equal to the ranger's Wisdom modifier (minimum 1). This bonus does not stack with any favored enemy bonuses possessed by his allies; they use whichever bonus is higher.

can I apply half my effective favored enemy bonus from terrain dominance, per below

When dealing with creatures native to that terrain, the horizon walker treats his favored terrain bonus for that terrain as a favored enemy bonus (as the ranger class feature) against those creatures.This bonus overlaps (does not stack with) bonuses gained when fighting a favored enemy.

to my allies?

I *think* I'm pretty much done with Rahlmaat here, other than traits, equipment, and spells. Equipment and spells are closely related because a significant chunk of her cash is going to go towards expanding her starting spells--she's a seeker after mysteries, a solver of riddles, and the secrets of arcana are one of her favorite types. She's also had many centuries to seek out more spells. Not to mention she's been the guardian of an ancient temple of Nethys full of arcane secrets for a long time.

If anything, I'm a little nervous she's going to feel just like a 12th-level wizard that happens to inhabit the body of a 25-foot-long winged cat. I'll have to play up her age and her odd sphinx focus on viewing things as riddles so she feels more like something non-human.

In terms of build... she's going to play a lot like a 12th-level wizard. While she's huge in her natural form and has fairly nasty claws, pouncing on things is usually going to be less effective than her magic. She's also incredibly brilliant and has nearly every knowledge skill, along with a few other skills. But mostly, she's a spellcaster.

Here is my submission Daniel Beatty for this. I hope I have got him built right. I still have one feat to pick.

Lokhir is done! Will give numbers a once over. But the core is here.

Combat
* Ignore 5 DR for outsiders, 10 DR for outsiders native to plane
* 6x primary natural attacks. +22 hit and 3d6+33 damage
* 1d4 mental ability drain damage with 1 hit
* First hit causes intimidate at +39. Any shaken enemies count as flat footed
* Fear Aura 60ft with enemies at -4 penalty (or lose fear immunity). Failure = shaken (and thus flat footed)
* Shatter Spells
- Not the best to-hit. But good chance of attacking FF. Pretty decent damage. Will get sneak attack soon.

Defenses
* DR 5/- (10 if anyone in 60ft shaken)
* Fast Healing 10 (15 if anyone shaken)
* SR 33 (if anyone shaken)
* AC46, good saves, undead immunities
* Swift action 1d6 heal 11x/day
* Standard invisibility and undetectable (+25 stealth without invisibility)

Mobility and Senses
* 55ft movement, can swift action teleport to anyone shaken within 480ft
* Darkvision 60ft, Thought Sense 60ft, Fear Sense 120ft

Spells
* Small array of psychic spells. Main ones are mind thrust IV, spider climb and synaptic scramble

Weaknesses
* No flight (common here…)
* Very little, if any ranged potential
* Does poorly against mindless enemies

And there we go. Formerly a psychic elf, now an undead monstrosity that feeds off of fear.

Alignment is very much Lawful Evil. He has a moral code, in that he holds to his contracts. He is a professional, afterall, and reputation matters. He is evil in that he feeds on fear and, by his very nature, revels in violence and causing suffering. But he is not chaotic evil, in that he does this because it is how he survives, and he has no interest in returning to the mortal plane because he doesn’t trust himself to not indulge in the buffet he would find.

Lokhir would be more than happy working with good aligned people. Even if they do tend to taste best.

I see the Antipaladins are coming out to play.

Nice.

My tentative power level is nowhere near some of these I'm seeing, I'll probably find a way to power her up a bit.

Edit: I haven’t finished my numbers exactly, so I may wait to see how she ends up.

I honestly wouldn't sweat it much. If the numbers to what you wanna be good at doing are 2x your Character / Class level, you're good to go.

A skill monkey might not have my fort save, but if they don't tell me to stop doing piercing damage because it just makes them bigger and more dangerous and I won't win that way, my HP, rage, saves, and damage don't matter fer nuthin'. :P

Can you possibly teleport to a shaken partymember as a get out of jail card for either you or the partymember? If yes, may need to check if there are ways to inflict shaken on oneself :).

Toshiro is mostly done, just need to write down his spellbook.

Spoilers: it's full of Transmutation spells. And a couple Summon Monsters for Guardian Spirit.

Toshiro is a master of the biological processes that shape all living things, and as such he can also act as a healer.

Sheet.

“ Right Behind You (Sp)

So yes…this could be a party member. It’s not something I had considered.

“ Fear Aura (Su)
Creatures that have at least 5 fewer Hit Dice than the implacable stalker must succeed at a Will save or become frightened for 1 minute if they come within 60 feet of it. Even if they succeed at their saves, they gain the shaken condition for as long as they remain within 60 feet of the implacable stalker, and for 1 round thereafter. All other creatures within this radius must succeed at a Will save or become shaken for as long as they remain within 60 feet of the implacable stalker, and for 1 round thereafter. A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again by the same implacable stalker’s aura until the creature has left the aura and reentered it. This is a mind-affecting fear effect. ”

And it doesn’t seem like the party is immune, though I’d assume that they’d get used to it. At least I’d hope so. :p

Also, I can’t seem to find the DC for the fear aura…

I was thinking on picking a book for Legendary Item - the legendary Opus Mastropieri. But books are not listed as possible Legendary Items, nor do they have a surge roll assigned.

Which roll do you guys think it should be assigned to (in case they're allowed at all)? Intelligence-, Wisdom- and Charisma-based skill cheks seems the more obvious, but I though I should ask in case someone (or the GM) comes with a different idea.

Also, it's being an ordaly to check which Mythic abilities, spells, feats, and other choices to pic. I don't know how you guys did it so fast.

A combination of having a vague idea of what most of the Mythic stuff does already and having a strong, narrow mechanical theme in my case. I had one goal: 24 hour modular polymorphing. It took me three Mythic abilities just to get that.

This depends on the fluff of the book, but if its role is to be a source of power related to bardic spellcasting/magic, you could also consider using the bonus for staffs and rods, which fill a similar role as sources of spellcasting power. They also correspond in body slot (at least, I presume a magic book would also be held in the hands when used, rather than worn).

Also, it's being an ordaly to check which Mythic abilities, spells, feats, and other choices to pic. I don't know how you guys did it so fast.

For my part, I have used the system before (albeit a while ago, back during the mythic playtest).

It's the book where master musician Johann Sebastian Mastropiero wrote all his works and knowledge.

The core of the character is Knowledge skills. He's got 32 Int (and that's because I thought it was already overkill, I could have otherwise risen it up to 38 or so), 12 ranks in every Knowledge that's not a background skill, plus Bardic Knowledge. That should add up to +31, and the possibility of another +18 thanks to Display of Int.

But Knowledge skills don't kill, so I didn't mind putting some hot sauce on them. The rest of my mojo goes to buffing teammates and staying alive.

I am still working on my paladin. I wanted a decent backstory and it ties into wrath of the righteous AP.

Considering the character I am submitting is the same one that I used to play the AP.

(Even though it never finished).

The ability to surge a caster level check vs. SR may come in handy, especially if you plan on casting a lot of buff spells in combat. Depending on how many nonhumanoids wind up in the party, you may end up having to roll against friendly SR, as well as the more traditional task of getting hostile spells through enemy SR.

For example, I took Eldritch Breach for Radamare partly because if some demon or dragon or such in the party urgently needs that quickened heal spell to land to survive the round, I want to minimize the chance of fizzling against friendly SR.

That said, surging lore checks would likely come in handy too, and if you plan on mostly casting your buffs before combat rather than in combat, friendly SR won't be as big a deal since it can just be lowered. Same if the chosen party doesn't end up including many characters with SR.

Int, Wis, and Cha based skill checks does seem the most fitting considering it's essentially just a "Here's all my notes" books of a famous guy. You can probably get boosts to combat through the other abilities on the item.

Fear Aura under universal monster rules
https://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/rules-for-monsters/universal-monster-rule s/

Under this your DC should be in the mid 20s, 10 base + 10 (from your 30 CHA) + "half your racial hit dice". I am not familar with the last formulation.

Thank you! So I’d assume that with 10HD (the 2 templates *hurt*) it becomes DC25 with enemies using a -4 penalty. Thanks for finding the rule!

For me, choosing mythic stuff was relatively easy.

First: I am picking what seems fun/thematic. Its mythic, power is kind of guaranteed, so it is arguably rude to the GM to optimize too hard.

1: Get out of Jail cards are good (which is probably 3 out of 6 for me).
One get out of jail card is teleport 30 feet away if hit, leaving a mirror image behind and ignoring damage from that hit, another one is escape artist roll against stuff like paralyzed, stunned/grappled as a free action, this one is without even using mythic power (and with an escape artist skill in the 30s).
My third get out of jail card is remove a mind affecting condition from an ally within 30 feet, at the cost of a move action. Not as good as I thought because my vital strike like shoot is actually a full action.
Even better, all of these 3 are thematically fitting.
Giving up a move action isnt great, since gunslinger damage drops quite considerably if I dont full round action, but I can use the standard to teleport to improved position, and undominating/unpanicking or in some cases unparalyzing or unstunning (if the condition was caused by something mind affecting) a party member is rarely a wasted turn.

2: I want a legendary sniper rifle that a) gives me utility and well, undetectable is gud.

3: Beyond morality, fits her roleplaying wise given that she can quite decently hint at repenting/redemption (for improved interparty diplomacy), and you can technically heavenly AOE nuke her without her suffering more then an LG Paladin would. So yes, If I get grappled by a bunch of whatever, and am out of "go out of jail cards", just holy nuke away.

I have one slot remaining, could go skill mimic (best target would be class abilties that scale of charisma), I could go "this may just work" to skill monkey, I could go snipers reposte (no AOEs from shooting from melee), thus meanign I free up weapon finesse and mythic weaponfinesse, for even better shooting.

Items and feats/traits on the other hand...

Two questions:

Will we be expected to keep track of nonmagical ammunition not made of special materials?

I'm a little confused on how enhancement bonuses to armor and weapons are going to work. For example, if I wanted to buy, let's say, a vorpal longsword, do I buy it for 50,000 gp? Or will I be buying it for 72,000 gp as a +1 vorpal longsword, to which I then add my attunement bonus for a total of +4? Could I even get a plain +2 longsword and using attunement boost it up to +5?

After thinking about it some more and seeing some of the other high-quality submissions, I will withdraw from the running. I don't think I have the game knowledge required to make something equally effective as multiclassed psychic vampires and the like, especially on limited time :') And, to be honest, the background story got a bit bit stuck in generic zero to hero too. Inspiration just wasn't with me this time.

Good luck to everyone in the selection process!

So, having mostly finished my char, here is some dumb stuff that could have been done. Not saying that any of that would actually be a good idea.
Feeling much more confident in actually looking through the bestiary after I did my char, option paralysis go away :).

I don't want to keep track of regular ammo as a player, you won't be made to do what I wouldn't want to as a player.

You'd spend the 50,000 GP to get it Vorpal.

You know, I wish soooo hard that the psychic vampire's name was Colin Robinson.
