As it happens from time to time with pbp threads sometimes fizzle out. And sometimes you find the PCs you created for them have an appeal, and you think you'd like to try them out again.
I find that begs a question.

What do you do with the PC used in the now defunct thread?

The posts to the thread they were in are still there for others to look back on. So is it right to just delete the PC info that reflected the decisions and actions posted in that thread?

Or should a whole new alias be created every time you try to reuse a PC? But then you run the risk of not being able to get the right name for the alias.

To bad there isn't a way to archive a character sheet in a profile. the only idea I can thin k of would be to condense the sheet into a spoiler tag at the bottom of the profile maybe, with a link to the adventure thread it was used in.

Any thoughts out there?

So I was thinking of making a class based off the paper-users from the the manga/anime R.o.D. (Read or Die / Read or Dream). Looking around I could only find mention of paper themed wizards/scrollmaster here and this from-scratch here.

The from scratch one isn't a bad start but it just didn't feel right. My idea was something like the way rogues gain talents.

I was thinking of using the non-fighter BAB progress, d8 hit dice, good Will/Ref saves and bad Fort save. For proficiencies I was thinking simple weapons and light armor.

For special abilities, I was thinking something like 'bardic knowledge' and 'paper manipulation' to start with. Eventually gaining 'paper tricks' to access more paper uses or enhancements of some kind. Maybe gaining magical enhancements to their constructs by using scrolls in the construction.
