Dain & Magill move up behind Nigel and wait their turn to go through the hole in the wall.

Great news! Congratulations!
Isabel casts a spell and touches Silas, boosting his power. Then she takes the illithid's shadow in both hands and twists it.
OK, here goes:
Asim background gives END+1 and EDU-1. Arranging these, with the Asim modifiers, I get: STR 7
After reading through the Player's Guide for the campaign, I am leaning towards a human from Asim. My early envisioning is a low EDU, self-taught, but intuitive tinkerer and mechanic type...but we will see where things go with character creation. I am good to get rolling with character creation Friday. The core rulebook I ordered should be arriving tomorrow.
Hi there! I guess I am the "potential player waiting to decide", so wait no more. I need to look through the campaign info and consider race & background options, then I will check back in. Looking forward to playing with everyone!
Dain and Magill search the rest of the cavern for any other signs of what might have killed the humanoid.
Spider slowly spreads his arms out away from his body, hands open and palms up. Hi looks at the others to see if anyone else is reacting to the "voice". "Did everyone hear that?"
So I'm looking through the Pathfinder rules, and I'm not seeing what skill would be used to imitate someone else's voice. The Disguise skill obviously covers looking like someone else, but says nothing about sounding like them. I'd be inclined to use the Disguise skill for this (it's already a pretty narrow skill), but I could see the Bluff skill as a possibility as well. How would you rule it, Scott?
Over the winter, Aristu pens a letter to his father. The tone of the letter is formal, and it details the fight against the trolls. Towards the end of the letter, he complains of the dearth of well-trained horses in the Sword Marches, and asks if his father would be willing - come spring - to sell him Dart and Blaze, the two light warhorses that Alister and Aristu trainied on as young men. Another letter, lighter and more familiar in tone, is written to Ariel. It lets her know that he and Alister are well, and summarizes events in the Sword Marches by focusing on the more heroic exploits of the Commissioners. Finally, he works to replenish his magical supplies. Specifically he attempts to obtain scrolls with the following spells:
as well as 2 potions of Cure Light Wounds. He will get what he can from the merchants of Stagfell. What he can't find there, he will send to Leveton to see what Olaf can acquire.
Good luck!
Ahran watches the troll as it charges out the door. He notes the wandering left eye and the spot under each arm where two thick muscles meet. Stepping forward he feints toward the troll's head before slashing at the weak point on its left side.
As they arrive at the ladder, Spider finally notices the contraption in Drifter's hand. He gets Argo through the hatch first, then propels himself through behind him.
"Yes, I agree Piotr. I am also ready to be gone from this place. Let's take a quick look at that last tower, then head out." Aristu heads out of the central tower and towards the SW tower.
Dain peeks into the first boudoir, and wrinkles his nose - not in protest of the sights or smells, but in response to the childhood memories the room evoked in him. While the others continue to inspect the boudoirs, Dain and Magill explore the entry room more thoroughly - searching through the leaves and refuse.
Question #7: Dain continues to live in the Warrens, as he has his entire life. He spent his adolescent years living on the streets and finding shelter where he could. Since he has been adventuring with the others, he has made enough money to buy a permanent spot in the Warrens where it's needy denizens can find him. He occasionally will take an extended rental at the Ghostly Minstrel Question #8: Dain has never had a romantic involvement. From time to time he has had crushes on women from the Warrens, but - due to his lonely social status and offputting social skills - these have been thoroughly unrequited. Question #9: Dain is used to feeling the presence of the city's spirits around him at all times. They may not always manifest themselves audibly or visually, but even so he can feel them as they move about the streets around him. It was only a few years ago that Dain first found himself in the Temple District, as he walked along the streets, marveling at the sights, he approached St. Valien's Cathedral. As he approached, a strange feeling overcame him, giving him goosebumps. It took only a moment for him to realize that he couldn't feel any spirits nearby. The odd feeling of disconnection made him turn around retreat. It made him feel so uncomfortable that he has never returned to the Temple district.
Working on Dain now. Only major things left are picking my known spells and buying equipment. Probably the biggest step left is actually posting the stat block.
I particularly like the one where rats become your divination spell. Cool! Yes, that is one of the 3 revelations on my short list to start with. I sent you an email with some thoughts on getting a spirit animal.
Understood, but I think I will be going with an Oracle with the Streets mystery.
Ok. I suspected that would be the case. Mostly what I liked about the Shaman was the flavor and the spirit animal. I'm sure I can map the flavor onto an oracle or cleric without much problem. I'll see if I can reasonably get a "spirit animal" with one of those classes by adding a familiar or animal companion somehow (a feat perhaps)
Tim, help yourself to the ex-gladiator background. But I think Scott said that only one character could be a Litorian.
Scott, please let me know if I should go ahead with the shaman or not. The hexes seem like they are pretty similar to the witch, so I am suspecting not.
Shaman it is! You good with the arcane caster role, Andrew?
Thomas, I figured if you had the melee character covered, then Tim & I could cover the divine caster and skill character (either his Slayer and my Shaman, or his Oracle and my Rogue). That would leave the arcane caster for Andrew, and Jamey's Bard for support/buff
So is the Unchained Rogue intended to replace the original Rogue class?
Tim, if you are leaning towards the Oracle, I will come up with something rogue-y.
Ok, i've got some ideas for an ex-gladiator that would work as a fighter or a brawler and would cover our front line melee slot if needed (there's got to be an arena of some sort in a city the size of Ptolus, right?). Warpriest also sparks some ideas. Having never played one, I'm curious, would that class be able to fulfill our front line melee needs? Our divine caster needs? Both? Neither?
That said, I decided to peruse the various divine classes to see if anything inspired me - and I could definitely see playing a shaman with a raccoon spirit animal who calls upon the spirits of the city. I will look at the front line martial classes next and see what inspiration strikes.
OK, this seems to be working. I am open to play pretty much anything, but I'd lean away from an arcane caster as the most recent 2 pathfinder characters I am playing/have played are a sorcerer and a wizard.
Testing...one two three |
