I say yes to almost everything, so I'll say yes to this.

If anyone has completed their character submission, feel free to pick up a Drawback if you wish.


Got my major equipment and am just figuring out what little bits to buy. Any good vigilante magic tems?

Don't tempt me to ask for 3pp material! LOL

I'm considering playing a Sanguine Angel instead of the Necromancer, since the PrC fits the overall theme of the AP.

Still gonna take the vampire feat tree. She'll probably be a straight up human fighter, no archetypes or anything.


Here my submission, a sneaky, assassin type. Has a lot of social skills as well as the usual thievery ones as well.


Mightypions WIP submission doing some HP rolls:

Hp rolls all my multiclasses are d10: 6d10 ⇒ (8, 9, 3, 7, 9, 7) = 43

Blessed be the ruinous powers!


Submissions close at midnight eastern time tonight.

Expect selections between Tuesday and Wednesday due to the passing of my pup tomorrow. Thanks again for the condolences.

Since it seems like the forces of evil are surging, I'll roll too.

5d12 ⇒ (8, 10, 11, 11, 8) = 48

Hail Asmodeus!


@Philo Pharynx

Blessed be!

I am mostly ready, background is done in 2 narrative pieces, specific enemies he has a grudge with included.

Equipment has about 2K gold left to play with (likely to be invested in wands, quickdraw sheaths, masterwork lockpicks, good clothes and a pack animal), and one of the traits (I picked trap finder) can be vetoed by the GM, but I have high dex, so why not tick that "trapmonkey" checkbox? If its not available, I would gladly invest the skill ranks elsewhere.

Sigvörn can fight, sneak, and schmooze, while he has many opinions on specifically extraplanar matters, many of them will be hilariously wrong.

Antipaladin dip resulted in pretty good saves all around, which will increase further next level when I put CHA to adjusted 18.

Oh, some tiny bits of STR damage and I am in deep excrement, as parts of my abilities depend on having light load while being in melee.

Need to do a once over, as I changed attributes after initial skill points, so my dex skills are probably 1 higher and my STR skills 2 lower. Also need to add all currently active class abilities in spoilers, so the GM can easily reference them without needing links, but I think this isnt needed for recruitment.

Oh, I have one more feat to assign because Swashbucklers get weapon finesse for free hmmmm....


A possibly useful list:

Sigvörn af Skrellig NE Dex based human Bloodrager/Antipaladin

Quirra
LE Dex based Fetchling assassin

ClydeMcClod
LE STR based Stalker vigilante

Elliaria
Archonblooded construct inquisitor

Liam the Wanderer
Ifrit pyro-Kineticist

Milton Nessus
LE Human Cleric of Asmodeus, Advocate

Malleck
LE human fighter STR based

Jolene
LE Kitsune Bard

Tih
NE Kitsune Mesmerist

Apologies to anyone I missed!


This is an All Star grouping of great folks that I have/am enjoying gaming with!

We are traveling today for holiday so, unfortunately I will need to...hesitate-ly withdraw.

Happy Gaming All!

You know when the perfect art comes up and hits you in the face? Well, I don't. But in this case it was close enough that my crude image editing skills were able to finish it off.

We'll miss you Dorian.


New computer time!

Now must fiddle with things to get comfy


And we're closed.

With five selections and nine applications, there are 126 different parties to choose from. Not an easy choice.

Template wise, Sublime may be pretty great eventually with these looks haha :)


Did some last minute alterations such as picking the remaining feat (I grapped extra background skills for scholar of the great beyond and fates favored), but if selected I may finetune that a bit with the rest of the party.

Intention is that he can contribute a bit to lore things, as one can assist on kn. checks, without actually being good at it.

Sadly, I no longer qualify for sublime. But I do have some form of most of it's benefits.


Sigvörn can eventually grab half fiend, perhaps half indivak if that can be acquired by some not plot breaking way, I wouldnt put it past the cardinal to have "demonic option" acquired by combat, which could have interesting results.


There's a bunch of really sneaky/fast talking characters submissions here, should make for some entertaining RP.

Oh yes. All the poor little Mitrans who shall be led into temptation.

By the way, each of us should say what our characters most significant sin is.

Pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth.

Elliaria would be pride. Except that is it really pride when you are literally better than others?


Wrath/Bloodlust


Lust/wrath for Jolene.


For Sigvörn:

1: Pride. He sees himself a step above his tribesmen, seeking to constantly improve himself, and he thinks highly of his ability to "speak with outsiders as an equal" (spoiler, types like him are not uncommon, and smart social outsiders like Erinyes, Succubi, Contract devils etc. know exactly how to handle those like him).

2: Wrath, the Mithrans did execute parts of his extended family, drove his tribal coalition underground, and turned hostages taken into worshippers of their sun god. He is pissed, and a bloodrager. And personally wants to murder the pair of archons who slapped him around like a ragdoll, once he gets strong enough to credibly do so.

Sins that least effects him:

Jealousy/envy, it is natural for some to have more then others, he himself has more then most as his gear could buy a small village.

Sloth, his *polytheistic pantheon* does not feature anyone who ever does something half assed.

Greed and Lust affect him normally. He succesfully worked for Nocticulan interests before, succesfully precisely because he isnt overly lustfull (and thus wasnt seduced). Greed is a great motivator, as far as he is concerned, but it wont stop him from running when needed, or have him make bad decisions.

Gluttony, he likes good food, but sees "lusting for food" as akin to lusting for good company. Useful in moderation.


Wrath/Glutteny


I feel like I may have the time to draw up a fellow to be perused....

Sure, why not, I can't look at anything till tomorrow night maybe Tuesday night anyway.


Oooo! A 24 hour deadline for a Masterpiece of Eeeevvviiiillllll...

Sounds like a regular Sunday night!

Thanks, Storyteller Shadow!
(I was tempted to bring in Arkhan...lol.)

Well, you expressed interest early enough I think.


Here is my Work in Progress....

Mephistopheles

I noticed the Theme ...lol.

Still working on him, but any questions, concerns, comments are welcome.

Thank you!


Shadow, could I also make a late submission? Things got kinda crazy with getting ready for Easter, and my brother's girlfriend moving in this weekend as well. Completely ran out of time/energy on Friday.

If not, I totes understand.

The Devil is in The Details....

I do feel a bit Wicked for the extension....

Going to be working on his Background today (and pick spells and equipment)...


A bit of his recent history building off his Campaign Trait.

Backstory:

Standing, casually sipping from a fine crystal goblet, a tall, muscular man with red skin, cloven hooves, and black hair and horns raises said goblet to his lips. His blue eyes crinkle in amusement at those gathered together.
Anyone have any amusing Prison Break stories to regale a fellow with?

The mischievously grinning devil offers a wink to his newest group of malcontents.
Ever heard the story of Mephistopheles?

In the small town of Eldridge, a once-peaceful community was rocked by the clandestine activities of Mephistopheles, a cunning devil who sowed seeds of sedition among the townsfolk, promising power and riches in exchange for their souls. The church of Mitra, a bastion of hope and morality, became embroiled in a fierce battle against the seductive allure of his dark influence. However, his efforts were thwarted when a group of vigilant paladins, tipped off by whispers of sinister gatherings, descended upon the town. Armed with holy light and unyielding resolve, they caught Mephistopheles in the midst of his manipulations, ready to face judgment for the chaos he had unleashed.

The saddened blue eyes of the Devil drip a lonely tear.
The beautifully crafted artistry of Mephistopheles' sedition was thusly bound, gagged, tried, and sent to Branderscar Prison.

The devil shrugs.
But that, my newest company of like-minded citizens, is when the fun really started ....

The tall devil roars a disturbing laugh at that...


Two questions:

1) Would it be okay if I swapped out Bravery for the following(It's from Bravery Alternatives by Owen KC Stephens):

Guard (Ex): You add Appraise, Knowledge (local), Knowledge (nobility), and Perception, to your list of class skills. You gains 2 bonus skill ranks at each level, which must be allocated among these skills.

As undead, I'm immune to fear, but I don't plan on taking any actual archetype to trade out bravery.

2) Since I'm taking 4 of the 5 vampire feats, how should I handle my hit points? Should I calculate that as if I've always been undead(and thus use my Cha mod)? I feel like if I have to go level by level, making different adjustments as I do so based on my Con dropping, would be really confusing.

1) ok.

2) as Vampire is fine.

This week started as a mess already so maybe Wednesday I'll start looking at everything

Thanks for the update. I can turn off the impatient toddler in my head for a while.


WIP, mostly done however. Mainly need to purchase gear.

Prior to joining the Knot, Ves served as a bodyguard to Tiadora. Her heightened senses made her an ideal guardian, often able to spot an attack or ambush before anybody else.

Tiadora trained her in the ways courtly intrigue and manners(something the young lady severely lacked before meeting Tia).

Edit: She took the “Strike first, strike ruthlessly and thus be victorious” training trait.

Yeah that's why I updated, I'm the same way when it comes to submitting to a new game!


I only find myself checking the Recruitment every so ... often...lol.

Mephistopheles is basically ready, save for some minor purchases, including spells to copy.

Liberty's Edge

I just got into another game, so I'll withdraw my submission (Milton Nessus, the Asmodean Advocate).

As much as WotW interests me, I don't want to overextend. But best of luck, all of you. And have a fun game!

So long, we'll miss you.


Good evening. Apologies for the delay. It is always with a heavy heart that I make selections for a PbP game as I know how hard I work at submissions and it was clear how hard everyone here worked on theirs. However, the number of applicants must be limited to 5. That being said, if someone does drop (I know YOU won't but someone might!) I will recruit from these submissions before opening recruitment once more. The Discussion Thread (and hopefully the game thread) will be opened this weekend, but as I am getting a procedure done on Friday (yes the fun never starts around here) I am not clear how up to it I will feel this weekend so don't hold me to that!

The selections to join the rebooted game are:

1. Mephistopheles,
2. Malleck of Alerion,
3. Elliaria,
4. ClydeMcClod, and
5. Tih.

I will post up the Discussion thread here when it's ready.

Once again, thank you all for your submissions.


Gratz to those picked! Have fun with the evil!


Congrats everyone

A Reckoning will not be delayed indefinitely.


Congratulations and condolences spread out as appropriate.


Enjoy the hopefully amusing evil Shenanigians.


This 'bout ta git real! Probably just like that MTV show, but, less deviously scripted...lol


If anyone remembers that old "The ultimate fighter" show? Thats kind of what I picture.


We will drink a toast to you who could not escape the axe

Salute o7

I was doing rather well; only refreshing every hour (or so)....
