Dotting for intrest. A nice, short little (and evil) adventure sounds neat. :) Will this be combat heavy, or we'll have space to roleplay? I'm probably going to submit this character, but I eould like to ask you if she's okay:first, she's a Skinwalker (non core race) and second she's a bloodrager, a ACG class. Is it okay? Also, I'm sorry if I can't paste her backstory and stats here from the previous posts, but for the next days I'm on vacation and have to post from phone. :( In any case, this sounds cool. :D
I very well know the mutual hate between demons and devils, yes.
EDIT: I also think that the Blood War is not a part of Pathfinder lore, if I'm not mistaken...
So, I'm not playing a divine caster, but seeing as Cynthia's deity is an important part of her character, I suppose I have to clarify things. Lamashtu's goal is also that of tearing off all of the "fake goodness" and show people how the world is: a terrible fight where only the stronger, more cunning or lucky wins. This could be somewhat conciled with Asmodeus, like a PF version of Social Darwinism. Cynthia's second goal is that of finding more followers for Lamashtu: maybe uniting all of the monstrous tribes around Talingarde. Maybe I could strike an aggreement between Lamashtan and Asmodians, later on? They take political control of the city, me and the tribes get some territories around the city and serve as Talingarde's army?

They're cuddly for Lamashtan standards :3 But yeah, I was referring to the fact that Intimidate, as written, is less effective for a Skinwalker after he/she transforms into a ball of fur(or scales), rage, fangs and cuddliness.
Skinwalker: Face the wrath of nature!
Since I've read Blood of the Moon, I can't take this image out of my head <.<
Have I missed something, or no one didn't submit a Necromancer of some sort? Strange, that's the first thing that I think when someone says "evil campaign", and I was debating myself between that and Cynthia. Stuck with Cynthia because she's a loving, adorable, murdering cultist of a madness deity. :3 Speaking of Cynthia: seeing as I'm tossing aside the most radical views of Lamashtu on the destruction of society to fit the theme of the AP, Stemboy's submitted character and the general Asmodian boundless ambition made me think about something.
Also, a shame that Zack is no longer a Dread/Warlock hybrid: I'll never be able to call him a Dreadlock D:

Marshal Cassius Earthstone entered the room that was the scene of the crime. ”I Can't believe
that skinny girl did all of this...” he said, while carefully walking through the room to not corrupt any evidence. He pulled out the medical records that the victim was holding. Medical record of patient HX000342 Height:5'4''
Phisical state: The patient appears to be slightly underweight, probably due to malnutrition. The Lamashtan Symbol carved on her belly seems to be healing at an astounding rate, and it's a miracle the patient didn't die for the shock caused by the wound. Her pain treshold must be incredibly high. Mental state: The patient is still under what seems a state of shock, and barely talked since arriving at the hospital. It appears, from the little info that it was possible to gather, that the patient is delusional and may suffer of Dissociative Identity Disorder. Notes: The patient has been brought here by a group of Paladins of Our Shining Lord Mitra that were hunting a group of Lamashtu worshippers in the nearby woods. They are believed to be a group responsible for the a number of murders that happened on the last year: every single of them was found butchered and horribly mutilated. There was no trace of them, but they were able to save the patient. Apparently she was found on a pool of her own blood, atop a crude stone altar in a clearing in the woods, with an extremely detailed symbol of Lamashtu carved on her belly. The perpetrator had probably fled already, but the weapon used in that heinous ritual, a dagger made of cold iron, was found near the altar. She was then hastily brought here and healed, but has barely talked since. Tomorrow, I will try again to speak with her. It would be best if I won't talk about what the cultist did yesterday night to her, the poor child. Doctor Aurin Armitan Day 2
”I'm not surpised of that: when we barged in with the dogs, she growled to them and they fled like little puppies.” He could hear, from the other room, that the culprit was answering the question of the interrogator with a slow, calm voice. ”I have already told you. He did not understand the greatness of our mother, so I made him beautiful to her eyes, that mother blessing may have fallen on him. My sister wasn't too keen on that, so I took control. We are much alike, me and her, but she can't bring to force herself on people she likes.” Marshal Cassius wasn't there, but he bet that crazy woman was smiling while she was talking. He turned again to the papers. Day 5
Day 8
The marshal shook his head ”The poor doctor didn't understand what kind of monster he was talking too: this should have rang a couple of bells, but alas”.
Day 17
Day 28
”Oh, how wrong was he” the Marshal said aloud. That morning, as soon as Doctor Aurin Armitan entered the room, that girl leapt onto him and reduced him into mincemeat. No, that's not correct: it's as if she was following some sick and deranged pattern as she cut him into pieces and stitched them back with a neddle and thread she found lying in the room. Truth to be told, the doctor was actually still alive, but not for much, and what that monster did to him was way worse than death. -^-^-^-^-^-^- Cynthia was completely in panic.
No
Crime: well, I'd say murder. Technically, it's also Consorting with dark powers, but I' say murder is the worst offender here. Objective: 1)Make Marshal Cassius Earthstone pay. *Evil Laugh*
The first would mostly be the objective of Cynthia's "main" personality(the slightly more 'innocent' one), and treat the second as an afterthought. The opposite is valid for Cynthia's more 'cold and calculative' persona. Random notes:
Everything's okay? Do I need to tweak anything? |
