Pelican wrote: Hi Favela, I am willing to try out your ideas with the combat feats and stat changes. Also since Grusk may be able to help with his summoners pet. It may work out fine. Favel You might consider reading about "wise fox" my small Eidolon on my profile. It has the teamwork feat precise strike, you might look at taking that yourself. I can not take the feat till third level due to the +1 bab requirement. The Eidolon is built as a "flank buddy". As a ranger you usually have to wait till level 4 for an animal!
Role in the party.... Grusk provides the point man in the form of his Eidolon, who can walk point, set off traps and help avoid death and dismemberment... The eidolon is also small, stealthy and acrobatic, able to help flank with the precise strike feat. Grusk is tough as well and uses his nets/whip or greataxe as needed!

Spoiler: Name: Grusk Tan'hul Race: Half-orc Gender: Male Age: 17 Class: Summoner Alignment: TN Projected Build: Summoner for single level, then rogue, then ranger Combat Role: melee rogue Personality: Eager to make friends Primary Deity: Gozreh Concept: Loner who ends up seeking companionship through innate talents of summoning but quickly decides he needs others.
Grusk summons wise fox through intuition which occurs spontaneously. Wise fox becomes his Eidolon but also his teacher. Think of it like a spirit guide or something like that.... Sold as a child into servitude, eventually ended up working for a trapper. One of the beasts killed the trapper, Grusk was just there...... I will continue to clean up this character!
Can quickly change scores, etc I think the sold into slavery/abandoned by parents fits the campaign perfectly for a half-orc! Character concept
Spoiler:
1 level summoner, eidolon as "imaginary friend" guide who helps him till he can care for himself. level 2 teachings of eidolon continue becomes thief (acrobat archetype) Background questions

Part of life, would have been so for myself had I not run a little faster!
Sees all as prejudiced oppressors, who attack him without reasons.
Certainly
Tends to be ill mannered and outspoken, poorly at best!
Ugly Half-orc (isn’t that enough)
If they are freindly
Not relevant as Grusk currently knows no one.
Lack of social skills!
Grusk is in many ways a contradiction, he learned things from his eidolon he calls "wise fox" who embodies that which Grusk is not, he has externalized that which he does not have within.... Grusk dreamed up fox so he would not be alone, yet still he is, the one person he knew has died and his lonelyness has pushed nim into adventuring..... Also due to his low charisma he can not continue to be a summoner..... Grusk has been chased/persecuted by both good and bad and sees them as being nearly the same...... Is that better.......or worse? One word is....Contradiction

Updated Grusk.... Spoiler:
Making his way in the world Grusk was driven from most lands and lived on the fringes of societies, in that time he kept imagining that he was not alone the fox appeared to him, he had seen the worshipers of nature before and felt in a way drawn to the fox, sly and cunning slipping into places and taking what he needed. In his mind each day the fox became more and more real, till one day it took shape and he summoned the Eidolon he calls wise fox. Grusk survived finding broken items in the dumps and scraps, using minor magic he learned from wise fox, he mended and binds broken things into useful items....... Professor Lorrimor was met and Grusk saved him from being buried under a heap of trash. The professor was interested in summoners and had been seeking a spontaneous summoner one who developed without any arcane influences, he was further intrigued by Grusk being neutral and seeing a balance within the cosmos.. Grusk now fully eqipped, and hearing of the passing of the only person he knew in the world, has left the dumps and scavenging behind him seeking instead to learn more about the world than the stories Professor Lorrimor told him on his visits. Also considering full orc rather than half-orc......
How I see Grusk fitting in with the current characters.... Spoiler:
Likely Aydan Mishnok, will appreciate the fact there will be someone heading into combat aside him. Azuk'ai will have another half-orc around, one that likely aids him in passing for human Duron will have a boost in arcane casting even though it will be minor.... Melk Besonders will likely appreciate the subtile nature of Grusks Eidolon, a small animal rather than medium or large, and not frightening at all. Runyon the alchemist will appreciate the powers drawn not from dieties, instead from some far conjured beast.
ie why they might want me around! ;)
