Cadogan's page

Oh, yeah, that one. Ugh, I hate those things.

I recall none of this. What imposter are you tale spinning about?

(And, there was a treasure room in the second Book of Swords? Man, I need to reread Saberhagen…)

It went exactly as planned. Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this conversation. ;-)

Well, I shall remove my invisibility ring then.

Why defile perfection?

I was holding out for a better pay day. Don't flatter yourself ;-)

I'm ready, but if you want a lesser party member, I'm sure my avatar in your reality can whip one up.

I should have killed that egomaniac Agun when I first met him.

You forgot I slipped her my ring of invisibility ;-)

No one lets me have any fun.

Well, it is better to die with the comforts of home rather than in a muddy field.

I'll never get soldiers.

Oh, wars are FUN! Killing without consequence? Who DOESN'T love that?

Politicians? They never give fealty to their true gods, Nerull, Zilchus, and Erythnul. And they're booooooorrrrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnngggggg.

They deserve nothing more than the death I like to deal them.

And giving the monastery to my church would have netted me a nice tax deduction, if I paid taxes, that is.

I'm easy to idolize.

Please. My cheap beer is Lone Star.

My expensive beer is any of the Ommagang offerings, as they're born in the town of my birth.

And, you're dead and I'm not a priest, so neener neener I can't hear you!

But I'm all about the mojo...

;-)

Joachim can't summon a cup of coffee when I need one, let alone a flanking partner...

Sorry, got caugth up with aMiB.

Union people are silly doodooheads!

Better?

;=)

Edit: changed aliases, since we're doing Kirthfinder characters ;-)

Mud, meet stick. :P

Eh, gobbos are just halflings who can't buttle or deliver messages with any degree of reliability...

Updated on the profile.

And, I'm not "pretty", I'm "stunning"

:p.

Yay cameos!

I still need to go on that mission to get my d-hopper. I'm too much for just one dimension to contain!

You know what's strange? I know what happens next, and I'm STILL sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for another post.

Ok, I redid Joaquim and Cadogan under v.2.0. Posted both characters under the appropriate alias. I juggled a bit in the skills to make fluff = mechanics (took two of Cadogan's free skill points and threw them in Profession (Gambler), for instance, to reflect all the gambling he does, instead of just relying on Sleight of Hand to cheat).

I'll keep them updated here so you have access to their sheets at all times.

I haven't finished Fiacra yet, still fiddling with a thing or two to make the mechanics fit the fluff.

Here's Cadogan.

First, well done considering layout and presentation.

I especially like what you did with the Rogue. I fell that with the APG the classes are pretty much balanced around Level 5-15, with the exception of the Rogue, who falls short unless your GM especially plays into his strengths (a plethora of traps, unusualy skill checks galore, not that much combat).

Your Rogue seems to be much better at holding his own, especially starting with Level10.

I'm playing a Rogue 4/Fighter 2 under v1.0 of these rules, and he is a beast. I am quite happy with the way he plays (even though, due to party makeup, I'm pretty much the front line fighter/damage dealer and I "fall down go boom" a lot). I don't think I could go back to a vanilla 3.5/Pf rogue after Cadogan.

Yeah, you much prefer your French Vanilla Rogue now :P

Emphasis on 'French'

I am of Catalan descent, not, ugh..."French"...

Meanwhile, not to jump the gun, but once you guys are done, Mr. C will have a message for Cadogan:** spoiler omitted **

Oooooohhhhh....

I think I know what this is.

I am going to move heaven and earth to come up with the 82k for this.

Or, you know, rob some rich folk or something.

And the modern player expectation seems to be survive until level 20...

Feh! *spits* I expect to die every time I enter battle! If I die, then all has gone according to plan. And if I survive, then it is a joyous day! If I wanted to survive, I would cower in the back behind a tower shield, chanting nonsense, making shadow puppets, and playing with owlbear feces. But that is not the way of a true warrior! And why would I want to live such a life? If you do not enjoy the visceral feel of cleaving through an orc's skull while surrounded by more of the orcish horde, then you are not alive!

My compatriots think I have a death wish. I will die some day, either at the hands of some great evil, or at the hands of a lovely assassin. Dead either way. That I've lived this long is a miracle, frankly.

Next week (the 11th) would be out of sight!

Count me in!

Three people is a quorom! Session called and confirmed. Hopefully we can get Cadogan back safely from Jurnre...

Damned random poisoning b*%~!es...

Well, I did jump into the river with Agun's nearly dead body and stop the bleeding when we got ashore. And somehow managed to keep St. Rim from killing me on sight.

As to my motive, I figured if I could keep Agun alive, only one group would be after my scalp after that. It seemed to me he must have been kind of V.I.P. (possibly with deadly friends) to warrant a hit where the operators were not only expendable, but guaranteed gone.

;)

Cadogan has a number of minor arrests and suspected felonies removed from his record. Although he initially falls under suspicion of Mr. C's organization as a "Royalist stoolie," his criminal reputation is restored (and then some) when word leaks out that he assassinated Lord Fairpoint's daughter.

So, um, I can reasonably assume that there aren't an excessive number of beings that may want me dead for this? Perhaps just some random cultists and a demon lord or two?

Is that the sound of you backstabbing?

Depends. Does the smokescreen around his head give me a stealth bonus?

Well, yeah, this avatar doesn't quite showcase exactly how handsome I really am...

That avatar makes you look like a girl.

Look, somebody had to say it. It didn't necessarily have to be me, but it didn't necessarily not have to be me, if you catch my drift.

*puffs on cigar*

...

I swear, avatar selection is the hardest part of making new aliases...

Well, yeah, this avatar doesn't quite showcase exactly how handsome I really am...

I attack.

I'm so proud of you...

Um, hmmm. Errr. I don't like this...

Loyalties? I've heard about that concept somewhere...

I don't know quite how I ended up in the company of so many lunatics.

I have a few theories, but my AC and BAB aren't high enough to confidently express them, cher ;)

No, that was Cadigan that wanted to do that. He would have beat me to it.

Do you honestly think I'd do anything to mar this face? My agent and the eau de toilette peeps would have a cow.

Blue Steel!

Well, just let me know when I can go train and increase my ability to save everyone's bacon.

All work and no play make Cadogan go crazy...

I miss you guys. Even you, Rim, believe it or not...

;)

Not everyone can be this good looking...

You know, I'm pretty damned handsome.

Just sayin'.

This avatar does Blue Steel so well, don't you think?

As a female gamer that pretty much only plays female characters, I find that I have to create quite asexual characters 99% of the time to keep the game from becoming uncomfortable for me. If I create a normal female character with normal attitudes toward sex, she's pretty much immediately assumed to be a slut and it's open season on her. That's just not fun to play for more 2 minutes every couple of sessions. Heck, I've played characters that are cold and uninterested and still have problems.

I have to know a group really well before I allow my character to let down her hair, and even then it's caused problems, because my character that actually had a relationship with an NPC must now be willing to whore herself out to any male humanoid the party comes across in order to gain favors for the party.

::sigh::

It ends up feeling like every time I try to create a character that's not an ice princess, I get punished for it. So I pretty much stopped trying.

Yeah. ;)

My psychic seer powers are tingly right now. Somehow I think the past is coming to bite me in the ass...
