Thanks for the update. I like to make this offer and occasionally it helps the process. If you have any questions about the build, the direction character, backstory, posting history etc. feel free to dm me. My past experience has been that almost everyone in the tread is also okay with answering questions if it will make the process easier.

Good luck all.


Great. I will check back then.


Good luck all!


Lint would be happy to take sign language if it helped facilitate a build. It is why I write open backstories so we can make things like this work.


Lint Nature Spirit Guided Oracle (Healer/Buffer/Support)

I have designed Lint to be flexible within the group. This flexibility is also reflected in his backstory as he can easily have had contact with any other PC. He can take on the healer role by picking up the life spirit but opt into something else when needed. Having a wolf will allow him to be useful at lower levels when spells are limited and open up mechanical option like using the bodyguard line of feats to supplement the healing. When healing is less necessary, he can switch spirits to fill a different secondary role (slum (scouting), stone (scout/controller), tribe (control/healing/buffing), Lore (knowledge)) all have exciting options.

There is another Oracle applying but I think the class is so diverse that our two builds would not have significant overlap so I would have no problem with two being picked. Obviously, the final say will go to you as the GM.

Backstory:

Lint is small for a halfling and much quieter than most of his kin. He comes from a family of hunters and farmers in the region, so he has always been comfortable with animals and the outdoors. Lint is regularly seen around Iadenveigh. He received his nickname because of the naturally grey hair with which he was born and the keen observation that he is almost always stuck to an equally grey wolf he calls Sweater. Sweater is of course not the wolf’s real name, but a miss heard Varisian word that means lithe that a travelling merchant once used to describe the wolf. Lint does not correct these people as the names make the wolf seem safer to be around.

Lint makes his way from town to town bringing seeds and cuttings of herbs he finds to help the townspeople he encounters. He knows there is another task for which he is destined for, but he has not identified it yet, though the calling is getting stronger. Until fate or Erastil brings him to his destiny, he will quietly roam helping anyone he can. He never takes more than he needs but will sit down and share a meal with anyone who invites him to do so. Lint is a gentle breeze in harsh lands.

Among the towns that Lint travels to is Torch. This town has always made the hair on Sweater’s neck stand on end. Maybe this is where the mysterious source of his magic is calling Lint. Lint has found odd devices, witnessed strange happenings and creatures, along with the comings and goings of the Technic League (Against the technique league). Like the other denizens of the natural part of the world, he has seen automatons slew and heard stories about the strange alien creatures found in Numerian dungeons.
