![]() Okay well I'm not going to make this harder on myself by trying to hack the system. So here's what I propose. Several easy fights with NPC levels to see who's worthy of becoming part of the main game. Each player can make two npc leveled characters. as I fully intend to murder at least one of them. The one of yours that survives (provided it isn't a tpk will get trained. If both of your characters survive you choose which one and the other succumbed to his wounds or died during training. ![]()
![]() Well that's easy. His literal obsession is ancient thassilon. As for criminality, he's bought things from black market dealers when he couldn't find them legally but he's no more a criminal than most Gnomes. You can probably expect him to pull pranks like switching people's unattended items around to different pockets. And if you'll recall wabbits prank with the wasp nest that is also in line with a gnome's sense of humor. ![]()
![]() You are normal everyday people, you have been kidnapped and enslaved. You are forced into an arena and trained to be adventurers. But your training is stunted. You are trained in what they want you trained in. Wizards are taught only the spells that they want them to cast. The rogue isn't taught to pickpocket or be stealthy. They have taken away the greatest tools you have for escape and put you in a dungeon they've built inside an arena. How will you and your comrades in arms escape when they've taught you everything you know, but not everything they know? ![]()
![]() Wow. Okay, Background generator is, well, fairly useless with my backstory other than confirming my parents are alive and I have no siblings. Otherwise I would have murdered multiple soldiers which had something to do with my family and yeah. I woulda ended up very very evil. So may I present Wilhim, a pink and green mottled maniac with electric blue hair and a massive preserved mushroom cap on his head decorated with several brightly colored peacock feathers sticking out of it.

![]() Okay, so here's what I've got for a background. I'm going to flesh it out tomorrow with details from the background generator. Gnome grew up on the road in a merchant caravan. His family were a permanent part of it. His dad was an alchemist and provided goods to sell and weapons to use. It was a good life and Gnome studied at his father's feet. He had more of a knack for it than his father and started doing things that terrified his old man and the rest of the caravan. (You can only blow up so many fruits and vegetables after all.) When he wasn't pelting the caravan with pieces of exploding watermelon he was running around with the other kids. Being an archetypical member of his race his curiosity got him into trouble on more than one occasion. The most noteworthy one being when the floor of a cave he was exploring collapsed. That was his first true time in a dungeon. He woke up and after barely surviving numerous deadly traps. (Mostly broken from age and neglect or designed to injure those quite a bit taller than him) He found an old book. That's where his father found him. That book mesmerized him for some reason and he sketched out the faded letters over and over again. He was heartbroken when his father sold it but he still had his drawings. On a trip through Magnimar he was able to find someone able to recognize the language as ancient thassilonian. He spent years learning all he could from books and delving into dungeons to find more. Finally he could translate a few of pages he copied as a child. It was a soup recipe. He and his family laughed themselves sick when he told them. They did enjoy the soup though. ![]()
![]() FCB? Also, I'm fairly certain my skills are correct and that I have enough backround skills, let me look. As for 9 I'm getting 1 from my planned headband of vast intellect EDIT: Oh wait, Favored class bonus and I need to fix my hit points because I got one less. since gm said half plus 1 EDIT 2. Far as I can tell I have it right though I do need another feat (thanks for catching that) and I need to do something with the fcb. Did you input my skills seperately, because I normally have 4 and included the 2 for background skills in that, so my sheet reads six. edit 3. use a point from my favored class bonus to bring myself up to 45 HP legitimately and took extra bombs fcb 4 times to give myself 2 more bombs. I can throw bombs for DAYS ![]()
![]() I'm just going to get the f&@@ing mechanics down and stop waiting for inspiration. Hopefully I can come into the fight before this is over and toss a bomb. I'm going to be buying a headband of vast intelligence. As per your rules it will be less than half my wealth, and I get a bonus to a single skill. (does not stack with my ranks.) No special restrictions on them being intellect skills, Wanna choose a skill for me? ![]()
![]() Looking at a Crypt Breaker Alchemist but I have a quest on how you would rule the Alkahest Bombs. Would different energy type bombs still use the same rules as the Alkahest bombs, or would they use normal bomb rules since they aren't acid?
