GM, aside from 25pt build and the extra trait, were there any other particular details on character creation?
I can't find their specifics in that link's recruitment.

Ms. Venici!! Great to see you again! If you're applying to this campaign, competition's gonna be tough! I can vouch for Alessandra. And she's smoky hot for a half-orc!! I'll be switching from Zen-inquisitor to melee, though. ;)
And has tried hitting on a follower of Eiseth in that latest stranded one. :)
Hey guys, hope we're all doing ok, i was wondering if someone would like to help testing a homebrew d100 system, in a short home scenario. It's set on early 2000s earth.
Take good care of yourself.
Take care of yourself, Max. I'd propose botting, given our modest posting momentum.
Alessandra calls out to her compatriots.
To the man, she gently presses the arrowhead tighter against his neck. Enough for painful pressure, but not to draw blood just yet.
Alessandra waits until the two split up. Trusting the men to catch the other one, and when she feels there is enough space between those two, Alessandra moves as quietly as possible towards the first. , bow in hand, arrow at the ready. If he notices her, she just aims her arrow, and lowers her voice to hushed tone, but clear enough for the other to hear. If he didn't notice her, she'd step to behind him, poking the back of his neck with the tip of her arrow. "Breaking and entering, stealing from the armory, juicy bits of breaking the law. Not a sound, or this is not going to end well for you or your wife."
Alesandra keeps quiet, but carefully listening to whatever noises may give the intruders' position away.
You know, there is this Belgian beer, called Duvel. (english translation = devil.)
Right-o. Gentlemen, who wants a pint & a sunny terrace, overlooking the city?
Alessandra hides just behind the corner in the G2 in the southeast.
"Hmm, an ambush at the armory, then." It's also possible that someone besides a doddering old couple is behind these thefts, which is why your house searches have failed." "True an option. They break in, and another takes the equipment from them to another location." Even with Maximillian's sharp memory, Alessandra copies the records.
The summary of violations is impressive, Alessandra would give him that. Alessandra displays no hostility, and keeps a neutral, if businesslike tone. "Quite a list, and i agree that such chaotic behavior should find consequences. I do not doubt your men's readiness to maintain the order, but the severity of the physical punishment, pushes the rabble's mindset towards rebellion." "Stocks, imprisonment, gibbets, public humiliation, a whipping.
"I am not concerned about the happiness of the populace. A rebellious mindset is my concern.
Alessandra, before opening the door, reconsidered her in hindsight brazen way of approach. Hmm, it could incur resentment, Maxwell is right about the archbaron's likelyhood of being displeased.
Alessandra slightly nods, a stern gaze as an opener. "In a manner of speaking, yes.
She lets it sink in for a moment.
"Still, the misconduct has created an opportunity for the both of us. If you can get your men to ease up on the locals, they see us three as people who can arrange normalcy in their lives. People who make things better are more easily cooperated with. Think about it, common folk are quicker to obey and follow, if they are content. You, we, and the archbaron all benefit, and the locals would even be less inclined to silently leave and join that rebellion." "Occurrences 'happen' everywhere in the world, but if they become more of an infrequent 'incident', that benefits us all."
"Hmm.", she acknowledges that for a moment. "Well, we'll have to wait and see if reason can be put into their heads. Any follow up action required, could be done with approval of the archbaron of course."
Assuming the manservant/butler opens the door, Alessandra nods to him. "We would like to speak to the House Guards, are they present currently?"
As the three of them would almost walk in, and the manservant/butler leaves them alone, she speaks calmly, but you notice a twinkle in her eye. "Do you know what gets an unruly dog to cooperate faster?
"Sure, the archbaron might raise an eyebrow, but i am positive i can convey the benefit of doing so."
I found trickster to be hilarious, bending reality, mobs committing suicide upon seeing you. :D
And here i had completed my angel run of Wrath of the Righteous.... Yet now i want to delve into that as well..... Also, grappling the incubus against their will is called a surprise hug. :P
Alessandra gives but a slight nodge in confirmation. Sure enough, she could understand where the crowd got their beef, and she could certainly come up with some creative solutions. She heads for the jailhouse door, casts a guidance on herself, and a shield of faith for good measure. In infernal:
If Maximillian doesn't object either, Alessandra adresses the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen. It has come to our attention, that the ones supposed to handle regulations in an orderly manner, have been not diligent in their duties. As representatives of the Archbaron, we cannot tolerate brigand like behavior such as this.
Either take 10 for 23 on intimidation, guidance included.
In a low hushed tone to Jerax and Maximillian, before they would enter the prison. "If this goes well, then the locals would have more reason to work with us in our future efforts, i would say. If we fix this issue, they owe us. Plus, people tend to cooperate more with the side that is best for their situation. We are the better alternative here.", a corner of her mouth curls slightly up.
Alessandra looks at the angry crowd, before Jerax and Maximillian address them. In infernal to Jerax, "...the exact sort of thug i spoke of, to the bard. Precisely the sort that require some disciplining themselves. They neglect their duties and are brigands with a permit." "Maybe we aught have some words with them. After all, their behavior is clearly inciting chaotic tendencies with the locals."
And here Alessandra went 'convincing' the angel knight into a bean spilling pile of misery in downtime.
With Maximillian exiting and asking the question, she slightly shakes her head. "He knew her name, but so already did we. He met her early in the morning, praying on a hilltop."
Hellknight class is PrC, we needn't kill a devil. Devil run is funny, but could use more time to shine.
I wish i could outright kick Nenio's arrogant @ss.
Jerax, Maximillian, question for you two. I'm starting up another run of Wrath of the Righteous PC, and i've got a mod that lets me make gestalt characters, and one that adds anti paladins as an option. Are your current matches of classes final, or will there be further developments? Like, oh, hellknight from Jerax perhaps? ;) I was considering adding our trio as gestalt mercenaries in the party.
No. I occur he's told us all we can. That being said: Damn woman! You are amazingly sexy when you inquisit! If I held the bard any lower, he'd no doubt feel my appreciation of your talents poking his back", Jerax winked slyly at the half-orc. Quite the sadist, that one. The first i ever heard saying he got wood after seeing an interrogation. His enthusiasm may be of use, somewhere in the future. She doesn't say anything immediately, but a corner of her mouth slowly creeps up eventually.
Alessandra sighs with some disappointment. "That much we knew already.", she puts the pressure point under some strain, then lightens it. "Last question, bard, which hilltop did you meet her at?" Once he answers the question, she lets go of his hand.
She pokes him in the chest with an index finger.
She pats his cheek with her gloved hand. "Now, you can go back to playing your music. Unless Jarex here has a question or two for you.", she aims a glance at big red.
Her stare grows piercing.
"See, the thing about inquisitors, is that we are trained to detect lies." She smiles faintly, "And i am a girl trained to do so." She repeats nerve pressure, but constantly, lightening only if he seems willing to talk, and even then not completely letting him off the hook.
"You are still withholding information. Spill the beans, and your hand stays in working order, to do what you like so much. Being a writer and performer, after all."
Alessandra holds open the door for Jerax. Once outside, "So, you seem to know rather juicy bits about the angel knight.
If he refuses, she takes one of his fingers, and with her bit of knowledge of anatomy, puts pressure on the nerves in his finger and hand.
"Let's have ourselves a chat elsewhere." Should Jerax somehow have trouble to restrain the bard,
Both are frontliners. One indeed plays the LE anti-paladin, combined with Armiger. He probably goes into Hellknight down the line, i suspect. The other is a cavalier/bard (the psychic caster archetype)
With the tips presented, i would consider 2 paths. Stick to Inquisitor / Zen archer , get access to the needed early archery feats. Variation: retrain the inquisitor levels at earliest convenience, into a cleric with 1 domain replaced by conversion inquisition, and take improved initiative to make up for the cunning init bonus. That would still get me Wis to social rolls. Different class half of the gestalt, but with the two things that are pretty useful currently from inquisitor. Or, as was suggested, one half inquisitor and few levels ZAM, the other straight cleric. That'd be Lvl 3 through 5 ZAM, then returning to inquisitor. Besides cleric, how about a druid? Take the eagle domain and maybe the Nature Fang Archetype. Enjoy flying while raining arrows down on your enemies. While, as a follower of Eiseth, that would look stylish indeed, she's pretty much a city raised person.
No problem. Might be future goal for retraining. :) Would changing aligment from NE to LE, be allowed?
I would go ZenArcher20 / Inquisitor20, or Ranger20 / Inquisitor20. I would still advise against taking Inquisitor here (unless you're building for something specific), and instead take a 9/9 spellcasting class. I get what you're saying, but we're already in local investigations, and at level 2. 2 re-recruitments later, gestalt became an option for us remaining 3. Plus personal background wise, dear (adoption) mother is a prominent inquisitor, and raised her to become one as well. She aims to become her mother's equal in efficiency. The 'something specific' idea was to be an efficient archer with solid investigation and social skills.But Zen archer/monk is a good backup, things considered, should it come to an untimely demise.
What about Zen archer 5/inquisitor x, + Ranger on the other half? The last book of the AP is for lvl 15 characters, after all.
Since we are still very early in, Can i per chance rearrange my ability scores?
I will at least partially take some levels in Zen archer, and they benefit from better wis, both for AC and attack with bows. I'd naturally change alignment to more lawful.
Hello. As a party of 3 gestalt PCs, we are going to run Hell's vengeance. I am the ranged attacker, with one half to go inquisitor, maybe a few levels zen archer even. I am undecided on whether to take fighter, ranger, slayer, or maybe even an urban bloodrager, for the other half. Stas atm: Str 12 Dex 18 Con 12 Int 10 Wis 16 Cha 7 We are playing with elephant in the room, so deadly aim is a free option, and PBS is gone as req for precise shot, freeing up 2 feat slots. If we're looking at the first 10/12 levels, what would offer a decently survivable and fighting combination?
Thanks in advance.
GM, how many cities/towns would the AP roughly cover? Urban ranger is useful for Disable Device, yet seems an archetype centered around a limited number of urban places.
A few options i was considering, was ranger, due to boosting options in ranged combat, and a meatshield in the form of an AC.
The one thing disadvantageous in taking the Sanguine Angel, is that it is very much melee oriented. Literally a sword & board angel of vengeance. Alessandra's a ranged oriented character. She is meant to go into Evangelist, originally.
Oh...my....Eiseth.... we could actually do so??
Oh, that would be a lot of fun! Alessandra might need to gestalt a full BAB class and make her way into Sanguine Angel. That would be so very thematic.
Re-recruit? :)
Alessandra was sitting in her chair pondering some thoughts, on the task and personal. When addressed by Maximillian, she looks up. "Yes, it seems Jarex has a thing for very mature women." *cough* "I tried gauging, without directly addressing the topic of her debt.
"Compared to their 'unfortunate lives', violence and social abuse from friend and foe alike, she feels her own is weightless.
At the doc's: Alessandra processes this information. The doctor was clearly a moral character, putting welfare of others above any self time. Leverage in a conversation. Alessandra cleaned her hands closing up her part of lending aid. "Until next time, doctor.", and she takes her leave with a nod.
At the Doc's place: With the drunk not much use as a source of information, Alessandra tries gauging the doc on the matter her debt. Of course not at all aware of that herself. ..."...and that woman bravely went on.
"You dropped something..." (picking up whatever)
