Hey! Dotting and getting up with some character ideas but that reminded me I do have some old characters from your old games and though to put them on good use :) Some characters need some changes but otherwise I do have some interesting idea for neutral wizard with racist tendencies.. (well, the influence popping out from just recent "Divinity Dragon Conquerer" game :P) or might be something new
Going with 2nd set->
Uuh.. both sets looks more than playable have to say. Hard time choosing now. Anyway, will go with cleric: building him up and getting ready to be presented in couple of hours? Any possible information regarding faith / gods or same as with Pathfinder? Hoping to get Darkness domain with something else (hoping here that non-evil god having it :) )
Lets give it a try and it seems like we got ourself a some kind semi-human with better than average stats. Thinking of cleric or ranger
Ah, this seems to be interesting after a long pause from RPGing. How does human cleric originating from Taldor sounds? Concept of a bit more elder person than usually muscles-ripping-off-from-shirt approach
Dotting and shuffling through teh thread with idea of Pirate (Rogue archetype) chased out from Luskon, who had to escape his execution.
I had my eyes on this topic for a while and kept following *cough*stalking*cough* it and could not resist anymore. It seems to be a fantastic idea plus been brewing some ideas in my mind I just had a fantastic idea of a wizard with goofy and clumsy personality with a bit craziness added specializing to time and warp magic. "Time is here and time is there, it flows and stop and boom! then goes backwards although I haven't been able to prove it yet.."
hmm. thinking of something
Well this sound indeed amazing and got even 2 concept mind. I am huge fan of Sopranos & Godfather (thus inspired for this concepts) Well, I just had this awesome idea of: "Mickey" Garazch aka the Dream Crusher: small time drug maker & dealer [Gnome alchemist] who has a bit obsession of researching new set of drugs and making his own life interest with drugs by using the drugs at first on himself in order to avoid Bleaching or Ander Tarviano, self-named & most famous=(in his own head) profession: [Bard, Sandman/Chelish Diva archetype] prostitution dealer and information gatherer in the town
Uff, dotting for interest! Seems like something to look at
possible candidate:
Elf: ##8 10 10 19 16 16 ##| # # 11 13 10 14 14 14 ##[Alchemistor] [Venerable / 360 years old] Rhabdom: King Dom oft Man His memories go far back in time. He has seen all of developments in Rhodium but not in bad or worse. All of that didn´t matter. He has almost lost his sanity due to loss of family he had cared for centuries. Died in the sandstorms, died in the hands of beasts, died from hungriness… There hasn´t been a single day in his life he hasn´t cursed his own existence for his inability to save them or affect the outcome when the gods punished the kingdom. No god will rule his life or no mortal is telling him what to do. Because of others foolishness there is so much suffering, Because of his own weakness he decided to study harder. There was nothing for him anymore in this country filled with sand and dust. No longer he would trust anyone else so easily. No longer will he hear others for their gods. They were all same in his eyes…. Each of them Leaving behind that wretched world and country he sought for a new place to spend his last decades. To find answer to his questions about this world, to silence the cries of soul, to drive away the pain behind his mask… craving to find someone or anyone drag him out of his misery or end it. The cacophony of madness and screams were slowly advancing but the trust to find someone to talk … was hard
here is some background plus stats presented. Unique about him is the Venerable age and experience. Having some interesting idea of RP but still consideration and not being so much attention to "text" so will have mistakes
Happy that you are interested :) Will be actually quite interesting even from my part, now that I think about it, how much does it actually affect the game play if barbarian is getting extra rage powers more than once (not really denied) so keep eye up or might as well report. your statements is true about the later level game: actual titans + wizard sneezing bigger fireballs than you have seen them cast so.. mhm, but I dunno. Could think that I could still dish more damage plus there has to be something good about the antimagic field :) Charge and hit (hopefully crit) and if they run... AoO which might as well go for trip or hitting again. Nevertheless, I have NO idea how it might actually be and these are just hypothetically speaking of game level. But still, will see with extra rage powers. Barbarian does have some really nice / crazy skills so have to evaluate them actually against normal feats to see which is better
Hey Kirth thanks for your response :) I did not read the introduction so carefully through to notice the indication of places where your character could originate from but as plains are quite a normal area you can find anywhere, I though that would be OK although I am not so big expert regarding the continent where this RP will be based regarding also the building up character: true about that since I have gone through most feats and thinking how to build up my barbarian I noticed that there is counter for everything. It is just simply amazing job what you and others have done here so thanks for that! As a side note: I tried for one think about optimizing my barbarian here by your rules and got out and interesting build. If I were to spend all my feats for the Extra Rage power I would get quite insane combination / damage barbarian when I went trough calculations and ... just wow. Could squash some AC penetration there and would be insane: Titan stature Aura of Superstitious Trollblooded (or) Improved Power Attack
backstory of Algar:
Algar comes the tribe living in the plains, grass growing as far as eye can see. Their totem animal wolf is highly regarded among them due to one wolf own capabilities to survive or whole pack of wolves ability to work in a team and perform incredible feats although it was not unheard of some individuals to worship other totem spirits which were regarded in high. Algar is a second boy of the tribe chieftain 5 children. Rather than having the eldest boy inheriting the title of chieftain, the offspring fights for the title. Growing up to be a big man man although not in such a portions as his older brother and 4th younger brother he had gained better health and stamina than most. Algar was not the smartest of his siblings and not even the eloquent in barbarian terms. However, he was practical and had better sense to approach situations gaining him the favor of his father. His father knowing well his son´s weaknesses imposed to them a task to find a better half for themselves who would assist them, take care, fill their non-good sides and would bring healthy kids to the clan. Algar took this seriously. Packing his stuff and taking off to find out his better half and to get back to his tribe to take his place as a chieftain which was rightfully his to be (all the siblings had the same thoughts). The journey would also come to serve him in the way of improving his powers as well as to be a great way to consult others, to gain confidence in talking, learn tactics. Algar was trying his best... although the possible wife-candidates would have hard time with him - Interesting fact about the tribe was the interracial make-up: humans, orcs, goblins, halflings, even 1 pair of kobolds. It was not uncommon for interracial couples to be born in tribe. The chieftain of tribe was amusing in his own mind what kind of wonder or new kind of mixture Algar would bring with him from his journey description: Algar is 5 feet 5 inch tall muscular man wearing simple clothes with some furs around his shoulders and waist. His hair is bleached with dyes, tried to resemble the fur of wolf. Eyes are yellowish with hint of green, skin tanned from sun resembling deep brown colour. His face is not the most imposing and his lack of intelligence does not convince others any further. His knowledge however with certain things and firm believe to understanding of life (simple philosophy and how things are actually) are something... like a breeze of fresh air or interesting at least. His mind on single task and approach with ground-to-earth tactics are respectable although they could be improved to involve more than "just doing this and the job is done". A wife in his terms is: good, listens to you, can help when needed and all the stuff with "thinking and calculating" can be done by her (admitting quite bluntly: having more intelligent partner and better at some things are no shame. She should support him). However, he is the "king" and he is not taking orders but giving them. There is only a one leader in his pack and that will be him.

I am up! Finished with everything and just need to transfer the crunch on alias
Lvl 20 Wizard
that is the companions concept so far
Hmm... well The Inner Sea World Guide does help at least in my case + if you need anything to grab some idea I would recommend: http://www.d20pfsrd.com site
Hm... Any wishes from my side? The spell list + my choice of rods + the scrolls are listed on the post. Better to have good party cohesion than playing God :)
Well, might as well have fun with trait selection :) Anyway these guys will die... but sure as hell will be interesting EDIT: Picked up 2 traits which seems to fit character due to Neb vs Geb 1. Enemy of the Undead: 2 trait bonus on saving throws against any spells or spell-like abilities from an undead creature
I have no idea how the American education system really works but in Finland it is quite different. Starting at age of 7 children begin their school (lasting 9 years) and after that they have 3 options to choose: upper secondary school (voluntary) or vocational school (voluntary) or dropout. Even after these there still exists 2 different options: university or polytechnic. Bla bla and so forth, there is some huge differences with style, education and system and I strongly disagree (That is my option) with sending children in early ages to school or to start "studying" as soon as they are able to comprehend simple things
Understood :) You are making the decision and asking the opinion to know that we are standing on the same ground still.

Mhm, thanks for the info! As said, it is so far only the crunch and believe me: when I have to play all those numbers in my head for level 20 character + calculate items... just not working. It is good, as I have noticed, to just post the statblock here to be visible for a while and get others help also . Ty for the info! However, the extra increase to the Int score is from "Wish" Ability... BUT
Just a curious question because I have to be honest and curious also: How much powerplay you want to see from us? :P and how much "free-waving" from the character abilities? Just thinking from the aspect of char (Level 20 = kind of god already)
Mainly reasons are: 1. trying to think if okey to have Darkvision 120 ft + Arcane Sight (made to be permanent) 2. Still trying to fight with word-setting for Bracers of Armor and Robe of Archmagi 3. Just calculating that everything is ok (to make sure I am not forgetting anything from my character + to ensure I am not cheating / doing something wrong from my own part) 3. Seriously thinking: What you say about having the "Staff of Magi"
Hey Nimon :) I am just having TOO much free time... so doing useful stuff along while planning my guy Here is somehow complete version of everything now. He is not ready yet but shaped up with items and stats but need to go over him but without furder ado!

I can just say wow, absolute same! I will be casting my dips on the Wizard (Universalist) or Alchemist
still in the game
Azharten keep his eyes on the small figure, following its running until disappearing. Turning and continuing his walking, it was better to forget what happened although someone didn't want them walk without being under the watch it seemed. As Azharten walks, there was something strange in the air but he could not say what. Looking around, he noticed some guy walking forward quite hastily and avoiding most of them. Sneering and back to his own thoughs, Azharten begun walking back to Orphanage
Oooh damn... more goodie-goodies! Can't people keep their life filled with anything else and protect their hips? Tsk tsk... sometimes I just wonder if there is sense to have people like this glaring and snarking, while watching these just appeared recruits... and carefully cleans one dirty spot from the robe At least keep it white then if trying to be whitey talking to himself in little bit huskey-voice as caring of the younger person?
Going around and not paying attention to small guy, Azharten never had any desire to look at someone, he realised that it was almost the same when he had left the town. After some time, the man was still moving with him and now he got annoyed. He never was popular and for hell sure he never had gotten some damn kid follow him. Thinking of scaring him, Azharten turns to one of alleys and move through it to another side, but slip fast against left side of wall. Waiting to hear footsteps, Azharten ready himself to jump and scare the child. Intimidate and Perception
Damn... guess its time to return to Orphanage. Maybe I can spot something good along the way..like finding something to kill elf hehe Azharten speaks to himself and mutters the last words to himself. Turning and moving down towards the Orphanage, Azharten looks aroud and ponders everything, what has happened recently in this town. Thinking of something else, idea comes to his mind. Wandering now in the streets and crossing from place to place just to see how the time has affected around and things looks like. Perception
Getting up and looking at the door, Azharten sharpen his ears. Damn elf and magic... vanishing eh? Trying to play invisible and be so nice? I will hunt you down for that Speaking to empty air to see if any response will be coming Well, I have always been bastard, thats for sure, but then I didn´t care. At least I am still young enough to remember that I don´t have father, unlike someone who can´t even remember, where is his left foot from right. Insulting words to air, Azharten continues as he listens You speak so high and might for someone, who is just staying behind the shadows and vanishing, when it is comfortable. Coward or just escaping, because it is convenient? You call yourself a man... I have seen even women, who got more stuff bet***'n their **** than you, and oh, I am not talking about priestess of Calistra, hahaha Letting out sarcastic laugh What do you know about mockery of mimicking or trying to be? Elf yah... you forest people always got more "higher" opinion than required for someone, who doesn´t even see the reality in front of you. No wonder you guys are crazy or spending most of time alone. So please, enlighten me ou great sage, what is the problem here? Or can´t you say, since you don´t know... all mighty third-rate trickster
Azharten smile get wider Aah... mage eh! I love you guys. Cut the arm, steal the wand and then choke it down your own throat! Goblin:
Snarky bastard. You are like a food for goblins and as many as I have killed... they like elf, half-grilled Changing his speaking and with menacing voice Drop that wand or I will cut your arms out, bastard and takes 5´ft step towards man, slashing viciously at man and his wand Attack [Main-hand]
Acrobatics (if needed)
Oh really... I never accused of something... but boy and now Azharten speak gets darker sounds... a sinister feeling begin surrounding, as his face completely freeze to emotionless stone I guess I have to beat the s+*& and answers out of you. You don´t tell me, you will be beaten! You better remember, what kind of person I was...and I will take that name out of you now with cold and dark voice Azharten draws his swords
Listening curiously, what the man was speaking about, Azharten begun to think Something is odd here and that man is holding something back. What is going on here? Damn... if Lydiana was here. I guess I just have to sort it old way, hehe. Then pausing for a moment, Azharten will continue Actually, I never heard your name. There is also big resemblance with another orphan, Eadric, if you remember, who is also now here. Could you tell me, what is your relationship with him? Twins, since I have never seen someone looking so similar to someone else. changing the subject and keeping going on for several minute. Keeping him comfortable with question, Azharten begin to hammer him with questions There was lot of things in childhood. I can´t remember all things, since I left early. What you mean not everyone used to like him? Why are you still here and what is your job? She was quite kind to some of the children, to all actually... but what you said is interesting? Did something happen or what. Standing and looking through him You are hiding something... or more likely not just telling everything. Spit it out. I am considering what to do now. There has been something wrong this whole time, with whole town and I don´t like it... but I never liked anyone here
Sense Motive I see... I agree, that there is something going on. I will tell you, that I met this... rumoured killer and it was quite fast one little bugger. Not sure, how will it be later, when I get my hands around it, but I swear at that moment, it wont escape. more sinister look appears to Azharten face as he remember the incidents in sheriff house and then look at one of his "brothers" Tell me... I have been long time away now and I don´t know what has really been going on. However... I would like to know, why aren´t you or anyone else of our sister or brothers helping Keiyanna? She is struggling alone to raise kids and take care. We all own something to her... but I admit, we all got our own lives now and we do what me must, but... living nearby to old home, so it won´t hurt much to pay visit and help her as Azharten looks intensively at the man Looking around, Azharten takes notes around and won´t say anything for a while. We are 4 at this moment... She called us, when she need help and we answered. I... know I am not the best one of all the people and I am not like others. Nevertheless, I am here... and I assume you do remember me and my nature, don´t you? Perception
Sitting on table and looking at one of his "brothers", Azharten wonders for a while, until continues Keiyanna is need of help and I am here for asking for it. Doesn´t matter if you can´t help much, but maybe some information would be good to have. What do you know about recent situation and what is going on here? Why are you actually locked behind your door? There has been some strange events gone nearby and past days. Any help would be nice, especially when Keiyanna is need of it
Looking at the man... almost like a clone to Eadric, Azharten steps inside and looks around. Turning his head to man and asking May I ask, but what the hell is this? Why so many locks and being careful? and stands there, if not indicated to sit
Glaring at the man, Azharten clears his through Fool or not, but at least you should have some kind idea who I am, eh? Azharten, one of the Keiyanna kids and so should be you too. I got something to talk, if you would mind? and Azharten tilts his head, like determining the man´s worth
Finishing the business in the tavern, Azharten steps out to light and breath fresh air Daaaamn, it smells good. No offense towards that dwarf or anything, but sure smells like alcohol. Later evening though... one tankard would be good, oh boy Stretching and looking at the street, Azharten turns towards Lydiana So Lydi, what´s up? Most of time sick or something? I know it doesn´t smell so good there but... hm, could you go find Eadriok and Basha. They would like to know also what we found out Scratching his cheek, Azharten walks forward Well, time to see if we find sisters & brothers from this town Moving, Azharten picks up something to discuss with people and throws out a question time to time about former "children" of Keyianna, who might be living here. Diplomacy
We had earlier discussion about the APG classes. Took a look into it and was thinking, if converting my fighter to two-weapon class in fighter.
Azharten face is cold. like those of stone, but only his eyes seem to fail, seemingly to pop out of his head. Coming closer to bar and catching the bottle fast and hiding under his belt Thank you... having hard time of really speaking words out I will paz surely back later... and if you ever need help, you can trust on me. Just a call, and I will come Stopping and staying silent for a moment, Azharten realises what the old dwarf had just said magic, in the place of Orphanage. That might be a lead to this! Thanks mate! I for sure will come back later and taste your best dwarven beer, you got here'
Well, when you say it like that I would need maybe Potion of Bull´s Strenght, but... maybe I will pass. Don´t have money and hard to get something, if you can´t afford eh? Passing out for a while, Azharten realises something Got any information you could share? What has been going on in street-level here, some strange activities or gambling? Know anyone, who´s tongue might have slipped and revealed something? It seems odd that so many people were interested to buy piece of land and especially the orphanage...
Ahah, that sounds great. I like the idea
Azharten looks around amused but is suspicious... too many drunk, sleeping and so early in the morning! Carefully approaching the dwarf Good morning sir. It´s quite early in the morning, but seems like you already have alot of customers. tilting his head little bit towards dwarf My name is Azharten, one of Keyianna´s sons. I have been summoned here to help her. Recent cases or rather dead people here with additional buying actions... is kind of suspicious. I would say... I am doing investigation in my own way and my mother is being troubled now by this. Thinking a moment and then speaking again Would there be any possibility, that you could help us with this case? It seems that there might be... magic behind this Intimidate
Well, since we know where the dwarf is resting or at least spending his time, we could start with him. There is possibility, that he might know where the elf also is, so dwarf I say as Azharten speaks, he nods to himself Steady people and as I know, he could have some knowledge about elf Thinking for a while, he then speak back to Lydiana My guess here is that the dwarf might have less to do with our mother than the elf, but I might be wrong. At least I have some kind of hunch for this and grins in the end
