What's your opinion on psionic classes? I've got a Soulknife [Soulbolt]/Aegis bouncing in my head at the moment, probably either a ratfolk or a tiefling.


Awww. Understandable, if disappointing (I was really looking forward to getting back into things). Still, though, life always comes first. Hopefully we won't be waiting too long; I want to see where things go. Even if the upcoming Blood of the Moon is probably going to make me look at my planned build for Karrn and tear it to itty-bitty shreds with new options.

On a side note, the Google doc URL seems to hate the Paizo forums. As in it won't let the link work no matter what. I need to figure out a workaround.

EDIT: Finally got the doc working. Urgh. Karrn's dream.


So, I had a bit of a writing chunk fall out of my head today. It'll take place the first time the party goes to sleep after reaching level 2 and Karrn takes the Aspect of the Beast feat.

Thoughts and feedback are appreciated.

The problem there isn't that they want to run an evil character, it's that they want to run a Stupid Evil character. Just because someone's evil doesn't mean they can't be team players or genuinely have friends. For example, one of my favorite characters I've ever run was a Neutral Evil gnoll warblade. Chakk's life goal was to become the most powerful warrior who ever lived. If people got in the way of that, he'd kill them without a second thought. If they stayed out of his way, he didn't care about them and certainly wouldn't waste time on them. The rest of the adventuring party with him, he at first tolerated because they weren't opposed to his goal and often very helpful to him (buffing, healing, etc) and as time went on he came to genuinely value their companionship in a violent sort of way (i.e. "mess with them and I kill you").

He ended up becoming the de facto party leader, and actually held the group together as they carved out a new kingdom for themselves, and the others served as a moderating influence on his bloodlust because he actually valued them enough to listen to them. At one point, an antagonist approached him with a (very profitable) offer to betray the party; Chakk just killed him on the spot for insulting him by implying money could change his independent goals.

So long story short: the problem is the player, not the alignment. Talk with the GM.


/me plays the Jeopardy theme


Uh... are people still alive?


So, how go things?


I like it. It also brings in a bit of related flavor of what we discussed about the Walker.


FINALLY. It worked. Profile updated with stats and junk. Updating gear tomorrow.
