Soaring through the skies of the realm the demon observes the inn as it approaches. Passing by once to take in the building as it passes, the creature wings over and dives in a at a measured pace to set down just outside of the inn. The demon's cold black eyes scan the surrounding area...
All set.
I'll just post the link to the first time I rolled it in the other game. We also did a point buy that was less than this game. I could reroll my stats and stuff but I'm not going to. I'm perfectly content with what I gots. Since its going to be mostly RPing anyway...
Okay...so I'm gonna submit this bad ass eidolon build I had from a previous abyssal demon game that didn't work out. Tell me what you think MG...
Peers at Nephistal with something of anticipation... "Yes, release what has been torture bound and let's see the face of freedom and wrath!"
"Does it matter what the celestial's motive may be? It is now bound by the corrupted force that drives it's own pertinacious will. It should be freed and allowed to exact revenge upon it's gaoler. Let the chaos of retribution twist the poor deluded creature to our will."
Shifting slightly from his place in front of the cave, Dimmu spoke out loud... "Would any of you "Children" care to share what we have learned from your reconnoissance?"
"No time was given. They were allowed their opportunity to live. They may be making defenses."
"Your group is the first to return that I have sensed. We have some humans dwelling here within the ruins." Making a slight nodding gesture with his head in the direction of the cave entrance... "The bravest among them was given an ultimatum to leave or be subject to the will of the group conscience. I for one will not see them enslaved, either they come willing or die...maybe they could earn their existence."
Still standing by the entrance to the human dwelling, Dimmu sighs as he silently awaits the return of the rest if the troupe....
Gaze unwavering Dimmu watches the man intently for a time...
The man holding the sword: "My name is Alvoratrix. My companions and I are planning on making this our home for a short time. You and your kind would do best to move on. Some of them will want to keep you and some will want to dismember you...You can stand against them when they return or cower in your holes. I would advise making a hasty exodus. Are your kind kin to the brave souls that made their stand here in the past?"
Dimmuborgir rolls over and descends down to one if the camouflaged domiciles, landing just outside. "Reveal yourselves. Do not be alarmed."
"I will remain and reconnoiter the surrounding terrain and ruins. I will await your return. I may scout the Dome and see what if anything the Deathless One may be preparing." Dimmuborgir takes to wing and begins by making sweeps around the ruins in slowly arcing outward concentric circles gaining an understanding of the lay if the land... What happened here...in the past... was once a great thing. A higher state of entropy was attempted but failed. But that power still remains.
Grunting...Dimmuborgir sweeps his gaze around the demons assembled as well as, the crowd in the marketplace.
"Better that standing around like a bunch of stunned children." Leaping into the air Dimmu makes a few sweeps around the marketplace then disappears
"Today is a day of celebration for the passing of Zyxlilot. He has shed the forces of nature that have confined his true form and returned to the ichor..." Dimmuborgir scans the group intently...Sensing the hesitation to act... "Enough words. We are creatures of action. If we should find this Nalfesnee's lair and continue our discussion then let's move. I grow bored of this idle discourse. With his litter bearer emolated and the Babaus vanishing act we do not know where to begin. Did anyone here know of this Nalfesnee and his operations. Was he located here within the Carnival of Pigs or elswhere?"
Dimmuborgir teleports next to the Sicsivicus's... "The Deathless One holds his throne because of his ability to know what transpires in his realm. Did you all really think you could conspire his deposition in the middle of the Carnival of Pigs without him gaining the knowledge of such council."
Ulgulanoth: "Gird yourself well Lord, they are coming for your Throne. I will number among them, although your Throne...I care not. Why have you not brought Oboctus to it's full glory and allowed its inherent power to flood the planes? This I can not understand. Why confine it's greatness?"
Ulgulanoth: "How do you measure their chances? What would you have of the filth?
Ulgulanoth: "Have you garnered what you came for? Or is there more that you require?"
Sene'Sis: "I have seen the shadowy human as well. My instincts tell me to pause and see what happens next. This may be the challenge the mysterious ooze had mentioned. It may well be that we were brought here...by purpose...the right place at the right time...or to witness something...."
Dimmu disappears from the center of the marketplace...and reappears on the opposite side of the track where the Babau and Nalfeshnee are converging. Ulgulanoth:
"The ooze wants that I should kill the Deatless One, in exchange for the dominion of Oboctus. One of these things I do wish, not just for myself but for all of denizens of this stagnant domain. The other I wish not." Gazing at the rest he is impressed...not with their strength or force of presence, but more with the shear diversity of that which the abyss has spawned. Slithering in a circle where he stands he gazes upon them all one by one. "What are your thoughts on this o' Children of Degredation?" Ulgolanoth:
Speaking again to the ooze...: "Your form unlike many of our brethren has evolved greater than all of us. The abyss too must take this form in it's entirety, to accomplish the great task of returning the cosmos to it's true existence. I do wish to kill the Lord of Dust, in order to remove order. This we can agree upon. If you deem me unworthy or incapable of such a feat, then say so now. If not...then tell me how I can return the Lord of Dust to the Void, like the unwanted child of entropy he is."
Speaking to the ooze: "How unfortunate for you, that you lack the depth to see the true potential of this realm. If you have more to say, speak now. If you do not require the storm of chaos to aid you in your indevours or wish to return this realm to it's true purpose, I shall have my leave. Plumb the depth of your viscous mind an see that true chaos is formless. I wish not to rule Oboctus. I only wish to see it emancipated, allowed to break free the confines if it petty dimensional boundaries an flow unfettered into and though the cosmos. If your desires are parallel to that and nothing less, we may yet form an alliance."
Angered with the situation of the opportunity requiring for him to make his appearance among the diseased of the Carnival of Pigs, Dimmuborgir screams out in rage... "RRRRRRRROOOOARR! How dare they presume what it is that I wish! They are mistaken! Tearing off after the Quasit, Dimmuborgir catches up to the pitiful creature and impales it upon his horns...the carcass already oozing gore, Dimmuborgir wings over and starts his fast decent down to the Carnival of Pigs. Seeing an open area in a central concourse, he focuses his attention on a particular area to land, unfortunately a creature was standing there, oblivious and he comes crashing down upon it, the concussion of the blast leveling some tents on the perimeter.
Sliding the corpse of the Quasit off of his horns to splat onto the ground, already breaking down into a gelatinous puddle he makes eye contact with the crowd at large and motioning to the dead Quasit, he speaks, voice booming... "Who's pet is this?!"
Realm updated in profile...carry on.
Her I am!
The saga continues...Okay made a few updates. Changed my physical description (fluff), finally started spending my money. And in an effort to get things finished quickly I just copied and pasted my Domains up there to get something "on paper", I am gonna take a little time tonight and look em' over and make my final decisions on that. Hope to have them posted by tonight. Got to wait till I get home so I can copy and paste easier. No way I'm typing all that.
But a fun challenge. I had never even thought of using the eidolon rules in character building before.im still interested i just havent had time to finish crunching the insane amount of numbers it requires for this build. hopefully i'll be done thursday or so.Tell me about it. This thing is ridonkulis to put together. Oh yeah, don't get me wrong. I'm looking forward to it. It's gonna be epic! But at this point I don't even bother checking my sheet anymore. I just change what you tell me. LOL.

** spoiler omitted **Funny. I just adjusted everything you mentioned while you were typing. I took the extra feats I needed, checked the CMB and it accurate. I wasn't adding the pincers. I did take Improved Natural Attack. I will definitly drop Critical Focus (Apparently I was still thinking in the terms of a 5 level fighter). And good catch on the pincers, I didn't even notice that it said it was secondary. No your right I just edited my previous post. You just beat me to the punch. I didn't even think about the Fighter Weapon Training...Damn, this is getting to be a chore. Wore out half my iPhone battery already. This would all be so much easier if I could open up more than one window to view at a time.
** spoiler omitted ** Funny. I just adjusted everything you mentioned while you were typing. I took the extra feats I needed, checked the CMB and I could have swore I ran that number three times and came up with a 44 but this time it was 37.. I wasn't adding the pincers. I did take Improved Natural Attack. I will definitly drop Critical Focus (Apparently I was still thinking in the terms of a 5 level fighter). And good catch on the pincers, I didn't even notice that it said it was secondary.
I think I found the answer to that one in the eidolon info. Looks like if I only had one attack it would be STR+1/2. But since I have mire than that it's just STR. Adjusted accordingly in profile.
@Nephistal - No harm done, water under bridges and all that jazz...by all means take it apart and let me know if there are any more mistakes. The more I go over it I notice little mistakes here and there and have adjusted accordingly. Still a work in progress. One question I would like some clarification on is attack damage. Primary attacks do STR + 1/2 and Secondary attacks do 1/2 STR? Am I reading that right? Is it just the first attack that foes STR + 1/2 or is that only if I do one attack by itself? What then do all the other primary attacks do Dam + STR? Still some confusion on my end about that.
@ Ulugulanoth. Do you have to have Improved Unarmed Stike to attack with natural weapons without provoking AoO? It's reads like you would but if they are natural attacks is it necessary? Also before someone cries...I adjust my speed appropriately...made a mistake...not a machine. And I realize I still have some skill points left to allocate.
That said, let me compliment you on your nascent demon lord's physical appearance. The combination of a serpent's body, avian features, horns, and multiple arms ending in irregular appendage terminations really hits the bulls-eye in terms of what I imagine for unique abyssal princes. Thanks, I thought so as well.
Dimmuborgir throws a rock at the Red Dragon; Mortiismuul... "Get outta here you big stupid dragon! I didn't like you anyways! Go on! Get! I never really loved you!" Dimmuborgir turns his back on the Red Dragon...looking hurt...broken...choking back the sobs and fighting back the tears, he mutters under his breath... "Stupid Red Dragon...sob...sob..."
*sigh* First of all...thanks, I didn't think it was right, something seemed off to me about it, but I had no idea of the rules based on cohorts and leadership limits. I have been a DM for over 24 years now and I sure couldn't find anything saying other wise...and the links you provided had lots of info on it I don't see how it helps a person extrapolate exactly what the ECL would be. Although I must admit we hardly ever get into Leadership in the games I've played...it's just not something most people seem interested in. I thought CR14 was equivalent. As far as the hit points go...I'm not sure what the hell happened there. Just a simple mistake. I'll reroll them on here like the others have done, and adjust accordingly. I used the exact rules that were laid out as well, and barring a couple simple mistakes, for you to insinuate otherwise is rude. Thats what reviews are for. *sigh* I have to admit after all the work I put in...I did it at work...in a truck...on an iPhone...I thought it looked pretty good. Sorry to disappoint you.
Leadership???
Holy crap! Started peicing together the eidolon/demon this morning...combat is going to be a dice rolling bonanza!? Any thoughts on how to make that a little more fluid?
"There shall be only one! Oboctus is mine!!!
