I wouldn't be adverse to digging out the dusty tomes from my shelf! Have a huge amount of material for the system.

Grand Lodge

I am pretty sure I could whip up a offensive (not to the players!) caster if you think that is necessary, or we could just continue on with the Fey we have manipulating the enemy with guile and trickery. Also Mwikali provides a pretty good arcane caster.

Grand Lodge

That sounds fine to me. I have actually not read that table yet (just finished table 1, only took me about 4-5 hours...). Given Algoral's nature she could pretty much be working for anyone or no-one.

Finding Lord Perpireen and joining him on his famous adventures (someone has to do a better job of singing about them after all!) sounds like a good way to spend a decade or two.

Story:

Standing (although he is rarely on the ground) a mighty 21" tall and weighing in at 15lbs, the pale blue skinned and strangly plant-life winged male paints a beautiful picture with his silver hair and green eyes.

Algoral is like many of his kind who have left the First World in order to see more of the planes. Curious and flighty yet with the patience of an unaging race. This current trip is just the latest of several in which he has traveled to many of the nations of Europe and Northern Africa and studied their traditions and most especially their people.

He has always entered the Second World from a mushroom circle in the highlands of Scotland, and has adopted that nation as his "homeland" in this plane. He spent much of his first trip studying, and carousing with, the Druids and Picts of that land, before crossing the chanel and finding the huge variety that is the continent. During his time on the continent, he has traveled with several groups of adventurers and has come to enjoy the feeling of exitement that comes from a team working together with their lives on the line.

He has also come to appreciate the finery of the empires of man and has begun his collection of Jewelery and fashion. He is almost never seen without his four ioun stones making their lazy away around him. He is usually also decked out in rings and bracers and fine robes of many colors.

His kind's natural affinity for language is at its extreme in his case. He picks up languages easily and has mastered ten from the Second World as well as his two native tongues.

He prefers to flutter about on his viney wings rather than walk, but will if he has too. Fluttering is also a good description of his vocal patterns as well, as he appreciates the sound of his own voice. Even when he stops talking he is often unconsciously keeping up a staccatto rhythm on his drum.

He has found a natural place for himself in the adventuring parties he has associated with: the squishy middle. Lightly armored and carrying no weapon, he does his best to stay of reach of enemy combatants. Choosing instead to bolster his allies and toss the occasional trickery at his foes.

Story:

Sunol was rescued from the slave pits at an early age by the man who would become her mentor and Father figure. He was a mage fleeing from the Technic League. They. ran south and settled in a small town where under an assumed name he soon became a important figure for his magical and crafting skills. She became his apprentice and toiled along with him at the Craft and the craft. She couldn’t wrap her head around the way he did magic but managed to find her own way.

They lead what seemed to her to be an idylic life. She worked in the lab and helped around the tavern that was attached to it (and truthfully provided much of the income in such a small community). She learned from her “father” and spent time learning how to make friends with the locals in the tavern.

She was more charismatic than her father and became the face of the family when it came to the local folk. Somehow while still young and not particularily extraordinary looking with her mousy brown hair and slight build, she still managed to make friends of most everyone who came ito the tavern. Her facility behind the bar kept her from having to roam the tables and debase herself as the barmaids often did.

If not for her fathers strange disapearance on a local investigation, Sunol would have likely spent the rest of her life in the tavern and the adjoining manufactory. However with him gone, it soon became apparent, that as much as she was liked, she would have trouble holding on to her father’s businesses. She was just too young to be taken seriously by the people ihn power in the town. She was smart enough to see what was coming down the pike, and gathered those things that were hers and left the town before the elders decided to foster her on to someone she couldn’t stand.

backstory:

Once a broad strapping lad with a shock of bright red hair, now significantly slimmer, dark haired, and very androgynous.

Lucian was bodily changed by the strange accident just last year, but has not given up on the strong faith that propelled him in his youth. His mind is conflicted by the strange dreams, sensual and hedonistic in nature that war so against the discipline he has striven to embody since he was brought up as a foster child to the town's smith and his wife.

His mother taught him her faith and impressed on him the importance of offering succor to those in need. Him father worked him hard in the smithy, making him at one with hammers. Up until the recent accident he had wielded a sledge hammer in honor of his father and god, but now finds himself oddly comfortable with a guisarme in hand.

Lucian has painted his armor red as an attempt to make his now nonsensical nickname more understandable.

looking ahead:

I don't see Lucian being anything but a Paladin for his entire career unless something in his new body causes him to fall from grace. But we will leave that possibility to the misty looking glass.

Background and description:

Sunal is a local kid taken in by Khonnir when he started showing signs of Arcane aptitude. He started off working for Khonnir in the foundry, working on crafting before Khonnir had seen enough of his work ethic to start teaching him magic. He has proven a quick learner, but his aptitude proved to be different than Khonnir had hoped and his innate abilities lead him down the path of the Arcanist rather than the Wizard. Still he loves and respects the skill and knowledge of Khonnir and happily did what ever was asked of him.

He has grown fond of the foundling, Val, that Khonnir has adopted and treats her as his little sister when Khonnir is not there to see.

Bright and surprisingly hardy for his small and thin frame, he makes up for his lack of physical strength with his wits and determination. He is pretty nondescript looking, with the usual coloration of the Kellid folks in town, and if not for the bandolier that he habitually wears that is full of stuff he uses in his spell and other crafting, he would hardly be given a second glance on the street. He does not arm himself, or wear any armor, except for the occasional heavy leather apron when crafting at the forge.

The one thing that shows him as more than just a random artisan in town is his proudest creation. His journeyman project with Khonnir: his construct familiar, Glowman (he is not proud of the name, but it is what Val called it when she saw it for the first time, and he can't bring himself to name it something more dignified).

I have always played it as the delivery of the spell is part of the standard action of casting it. But would be un-amazed if I had been playing it wrong all these years.

Grand Lodge

A kineticist would in theory get more powerful when raging as they are Con based.

Grand Lodge

If I were going for pure damage output I could certainly change a bunch of things about Thelonius, but I maximized for as high an AC as possible figuring that he would most likely end up as the person to try to counter the opponents damage dealers.

background:

As a child, Illian's family and entire troupe was mysteriously slain in their wagons while he was off gathering wood for the evening fire. Bereft and without hope he set off down the road expecting to die before he made it to the next town. Yet fate must have had other plans for him, as he stumbled into Sandpoint after two straight days of walking. Delirious with hunger and fatigue he collapsed in the center of town right in front of the chapel.

Father Tobyn took pity on the child and brought him in and fed him enough to nurse him back to his senses and then sent him off to Ilsoari and the Turandok Academy.

He became a fixture underfoot at the academy, and until the "incident" was thought to have overcome his tragic history. Two years ago upon his majority, he and Ilsoari agreed that perhaps the best thing to help the boy settle his mind and purge himself of his nightmares and occasional unexplained rages was to try to see if a monastic career would allow him to set his mind straight.

The monastery of Irori at Magnimar was well suited to him and his abilities and he soon began to walk along the path of self realization. One of the things that he realized was that the death of his parents and his powerful rages were in fact not related. There was something else at play, something that was determined to be Draconic in origin, but still not understood by Illian or his masters at the temple.

Mere days ago, Illian took his new name in the church and decided that he owed it to his savior to be at the consecration of the new cathedral in his adopted hometown. So he set off to Sandpoint, carrying only the robes on his back, his sandals, his lyre, and his temple provided sword. He would henceforth be known as Brother Thelonius.

I am working on a non-traditional un-armored tank. A monk. I have pretty much the crunch worked out except for the bloodline part, and am working on a solid background now.

Grand Lodge

Given the slew of sorcerors (see what I did there) that have been put forth, I am also playing around with the idea of a straight forward Paladin. I am finding it hard to make one that will be half as effective as the boosted fighter, but I think I have something that might work, but this one pretty much needs the Rich Parents trait to start with enough equipment to even look like a Paladin.

I'll work on him more and see if I think he will be a fun character to play. (one skill point per level without using favored class is really limiting for anything other than a one dimensional slayer of evil).

Born to a family of artisan jewlers, Roldan did not suffer a difficult upbringing. Never a very physical child Roldan grew up with his nose in a book, or following the scent of a pretty lady.

He did follow the family trade and allowed his family to train him in the craft, but that was never his true avocation. He discovered early that his blood was touched by something other than just the family pride in their artistry. he could make things move with just force of will and make people like him very easily.

He would have likely lived a comfortable and easy life if not for a fire that destroyed the family factory and led to the death of his parents. He sold what remained of the family property and sent out to see if his magical blood could lead him to a differrent fate.

I am working on a sorcerer.

Do you have anything against the rich parents trait. Not terribly useful for a sorcerer but fits the background I have for him.

Wow, after spending the last 3-4 hours reading over the gameplay thread I must say I am impressed with the feel of the game so far.

I think it is particularly interesting how every fight seems to end up a giant mosh pit of Kobolds pilling onto their tougher opponents. And then dragging themselves back from deaths door.

I feel for Draco, seems to be lots of rather quick turnover. I wouldn't be one of those. I am a frequent poster and plan to play for a long time.

Story:

Kricker comes from an unusual tribe of Kobolds. The tribe values technology as the means with which they will overcome the bigger and more powerful races. They have captured many alchemists and gunslingers over the years and tortured or bribed them into teaching the tribe the tricks of their trades. All of the warriors in his clan learn the art of the gun, rather than the crude weapons that other inferior tribes use. But, Kricker was not content to be a simple warrior of his tribe. He had felt a higher calling ever since his youth. The beauty of conflict tugs at his heart and soul. He obeyed his calling and has begun his service to his god.

Ooh, this looks tasty. I like me the underdog slightly silly characters. Let me see what I can work up...

Also do you know when the games are going to go into warhorn? I may want to sign up to Run a couple.

I'll see if I can come up with a couple of laptops if someone can supply a printer. Do we care if the laptops are Macs or PCs? Obviously the software works on both.
