Righto, First things first that I'd like to explain: My Sigil differs majorly in this way: ALL SETTINGS EXIST. ALL SETTINGS ARE CONNECTED. everything is explained by interconnecting worlds and planes, every different world is just that- a different world, Infinity means infinity. Beyond the edge of every universe is a vast infinite space separating other universes, therefore you can encounter basically anything... Be aware of that Gives me a reason to use Pathfinder stats and explain it off... Plus it let's me plant some Easter eggs...
One thing I'd like to state- It took some digging to find alot of your alignments- I'd like it to be a bit easier for me to find that information- as unlike other games something like that is gonna come into play alot more often. The selected: Yigbex The Imp! "Shella" the Dreagloth. Telin kingfisher arial elf,... Air elf, whatever Tak Starscale- the drakobold Sparrow- what I can only describe as Celestial. Eleven The gunslinger robot Zazriel The Drider, Shedinn Delmirev Undead knight Haile- The ogre Mul, Gilly Geitmenn because it would be a crime to deny a background like that Aaaand that's 10... Hmm so many good applications!
Please report to the discussion and I'll answer any last second questions and we can begin working on where you are in Sigil, why your being brought together, and who's doing the gathering.
Sons of Mercy are the current incarnation of law in Sigil (in as much as the city guard is aligned with a faction). And Dakon's nominal faction. Well, That faction represents what I believe should be a palidan: See good in all but don't force good apon those not seeking it... Anyways, Sorry for the delay on my posts, My internet provider decided yesterday was a great day to just stop working.
I might actually run two mixed tables, Or allow you to decide the tables yourself... Who knows, I'm still pondering.
Ssssooooo from thebtop:
2) No- this is not by-the-book. It's more... Very close to Planescape but overall it's our world and there will be diffrences. 3)any template that doesn't completely make you imortal- and of it does: I will make sure you get to use that immortality often...
4)you may reflavor Galorian specific classes/feats/or anything you wish. Hell, you can even just be from Galorian- Again this is our world and differences will happen. Your character can be from any setting, But please be aware sometimes themes clash a little ;P
okay, i think now wouldbe a good time to anounce when I'm closing recruitment: I'll be closing the 28th. the party will be choosen then on the 1'st and I'll get us started in the great City of Doors
The skeletal champion template gives 2 hitdice as undead. When do I get these? Undead 2 / cavalier 4 or cavalier 4 / undead 2 or something in between? you do not get any hit dice from templates, If the template says it gives hit dice- It doesn't .. As for two tables- I may run two tables that have the chance to tie in later and end up on opposite sides of the conflict.
Ah that's a tempting lineup. Make a really weak character, not good at anything at all yet the greatest Bard on existence: with ABP this lineup is very playable... Of course only if you build a caster :P For those interested these are my Spellscale and Dragonborn races:
Dragonborn(Forgotten Realms):
Dragonborn as seen in the Forgotten Realms
Type: Humanoid(Dragonborn)(0rp): Dragonborn are Humanoids with the Dragonborn subtype Size: Medium(0rp): Dragonborn are medium and gain no size modifiers Speed: 30ft(0rp): Dragonborn are normal speed Ability Modifiers: +2Str +2Cha -2dex(0rp): Dragonborn are physically strong and as naturally charming as dragons, However they lack finesse. Language: Dragonborn begin speaking Draconic and Common, with high Int they can learn the following languages- Elven, Dwarf, Goblin, Orc, Giant, Aklo, Gnome, Halfling.(0rp) Draconic Heritage:(2RP)Dragonborn choose a Chomatic or Metalic dragon type at creation. They base all their energy resistance and breath weapon on this type. Additionally Dragonborn are Immune to paralysis and gain a +2 to saves against Enchantments-(Addapted from Elven immunities):Note- this does not count as a Draconic bloodline however Dragonborn must choose the same color if they ever choose a Draconic bloodline in the future Natural armor:(2rp) Dragonborn. Have hard scales, granting them a +1 natural armor bonus to AC. Energy Resistance:(1RP) Dragonborn Have 5 Energy resistance based on the dragon type choosen with Draconic Heritage Breath Weapon:(1+1RP) Dragonborn start the game with a a breath weapon. This breath weapon uses the same shape and energy type as Draconic Heritage. They start with a breath that deals 2d6 damage with a DC of 10+Constitution modifier. This can be used 1+ your con modifier times a day. This can be made stronger through feats(See below) Claws:(2RP) Dragonborn have 2 claw attacks that deal 1d4 damage each. These count as primary attacks unless used in conjunction with a manufactured weapon. Low light vision(1RP): Dragonborn can see 2 times as far in dark. Special Feats: Improved Breath weapon
Alternative Racial traits: Replaces breath weapon:
Spellscale(3.5->Pathfinder): Lore: Spellscale are the Children to Two sorcerer with the Draconic bloodline. Only 1/10 children of two Draconic sorcerer are Spellscales, Making them even rarer than sorcerer themselves. Almost all of them are Sorcerer- and each has an innate knowledge of the magic that flows within them. While most take up the mantle of sorcerer, some delve into the blood that fuels their magic- becoming Draconic exemplar, or devoting themselves to a Draconic deity. Type: humanoid(Human, Draconic*)
Ability score:(1RP)+2Cha, +2Int, -2Con- Spellscale are Naturally beautiful and extremely analytical, but their bodies are suited more for magic than battle Languages:(1rp)Spellscale begin knowing Common and Draconic, and those with high Int can learn any language Blood Of Dragons:(2RP)Spellscale Have such innate ties to dragons that their Cha score is considered 2 higher when determining the abilites of the Draconic bloodline. Highly Analytical:(2RP) Spellscale are Naturally tallented with magic, and their innate ability with it gives them an edge: +1 to Spellcraft and Knowledge(arcana) Sorcerer Prodegy:(~2RP) Spellscales have such innate ability that any Spellscale with Cha 11 or greater have access to the following spell-like abilities 1/day:Identify, Magic Missle Draconic Resistance:(~2RP)Although not true dragons, Spellscale have a natural resistance to the same magics Dragons do- +2 Saves vs. Sleep and Paralysis Darkvision 60ft- Spellscales have Keen vision able to see in the dark Total RP= ~10 *The Draconic subtype: A creature with the Draconic subtype isn't a dragon, However they are treated as a dragon for the purposes of applying for feats, being targeted by spells, And using magic items only useable by dragons- may apply this to Dragonborn
I do believe I said there would be no wild talent gift, due to being disconnected from Athas. as for a deadline: I dont have one yet, I will close Recruitment when i feel it has been allowed to brew long enough. as for the criteria: make a character- have a backstory- don't be a murder hobo. also yes... 25 is quite generous, so Rolling is a bigger risk than boon in the end...
I want to state before it's too late: KOBOLDS WILL NOT RECEIVE A -4 TO STR, INSTEAD THEY ONLY HAVE A -2 TO STR, AND GAIN A +2 TO CHA. this balances out the curious Reptiles- they are so weak it seems almost cruel to leave them so mangled. The reason for the +2 Cha- Kobolds are crafty and witty, After all Dragons keep them around despite their weakness. They are often described as Sorcerers or Bards and this fits them well.
Ah, So comes the inherit risk of rolling.
Poor luck my friend- thankfully you can always plaster a Template on your character and add a small bit of edge to your stats. I can already hear the lvl 3 Liches and Vampires Creeping up the path... Little do they know, the darkenss is not their friend
Those of you interested in this game may now apply Here Where I will be awaiting your responses... Patiently
Welcome to Sigil. Located at the top of the spire in the very center of the Outlands- This City is an Icon to all planiars, and a Mystery to all Primes. In this City a mortal man might converse with an Astral Deva and a Terrible Pit Fiend, On the same day! Perhaps even at the same table.
Rumors have been whispered in Sigil, the City of Doors. Roumors that doors are begining to close. Portals that once led to powerful worlds, Lost kingdoms, and rich cities have began to shut. Portals no longer able to reach such worlds. Any Primes from those worlds are cut off from returning, unknown magic preventing them from going back. Some folks are worried, others figure if such things where a threat to Sigil or any of their planes, it would be a long time before they would be effected... Hello everyone, I am The lone DM, Your Guide to the City of Doors. those of you new here can become easily lost in the winding streets and dark corridors filled with Demons and Angels alike. If you are not careful, One can get seriously hurt... Me as a DM:
I'd like to explain some basic Home rules I Have, as well as let you know how I play as a DM. I'm very lax as a Dungeon master, and Find RAW to be quite restrictive at times. And for me the rules should be the Arbitors of Fun. Therefore I tend to flex and bend the rules to better allow the freedom that comes with playing any role-playing game. So- if you have any questions about Rules and how I view them, go ahead and ask. I do keep most rules, as Paizo does a good job of laying good framework, But if there are any contradictions or strange limits you think should be addressed, Please bring them up. For example- If a species cannot see but has a sense like Blindsense to see things- in my mind that doesn't make them completely blind beyond what their Blindsense allows.
Custom Races and how I play them:
Okay, First off let's lay down the ground rules- Custom races are gonna be allowed for thos game. However I'm gonna be quite the stickler for details, and if I sense any excessive use of RP I will be less likely to consider a race. How to format a submission for a Custom race:
From here comes the traits and such. I first want to state that I will be incorporating some changes to Type and Size RP: First- Being Tiny is only 2RP instead of 4, and being large is only 4RP instead of 7, and neither grants a stat bonus. Another thing I'd like to add-on The ability of flying no longer cost 4 RP but 2, however you may still pay 2 extra for the greater speed And here is an example of the format of like for the traits and qualities: Blurgle
Size: Normal -RP cost Speed normal 30Ft -RP cost Ability score bonus: +2 Blurg, +2 Gle, -2 Flabbernak,- RP cost Language:Blurgleflaff- RP cost Trait name: Blurlge are terrible creatures who have no stat binuses, are completely useless, and stink so much they are avoided at all cost.- RP cost Total RP: Terrible So- for each trait as well as the Ability modifiers, I'd like you to Explain how your race has these abilities rather than just copy/pasting from the race Builder page. This makes your race Unique and ties it up in a bow. Another thing of like to say- you may reflavor the names of each quality as long as you explain what they do and next to the RP cost explain what they where. You may also reflavor certain abilites with different ones.for example: Elven immunities make you immune to sleep spells and Grant a +2 to saves against enchantments. Well you may reflavor this to instead make you immune to Paralysis and Grant a +2 to saves again Necromancy spells. You may also make your own traits- So long as they dont outdo any other trait and you give an estimate as to what the RP value would be in your opinion. After you've applied a Custom race I will give my thumbs up or down as to whether you can use it or not ^-^
Setting based Races:
Dark Sun: there was a Pathfinder Conversion from Dark sun made by Tony Denning and Timothy Brown called "The Athasian Pathfinder Conversion" I Remember finding a link to the PDF somewhere on this website. I really liked their conversions for the races from Dark Sun. I have the PDF On my drive-in However I can't exactly share that with everyone ;P If someone can find me a link that would be nice, Otherwise Please ask- we will be using the Stats for standard play for any Races coming from Athas- so just ignore the Ability Changes on each race. As for the "Wild talent" ignore that as well- as being away from Athas has broken your natrual Psionic connection to the land Eberron: there was a conversion I really liked found Here where I'll use the Rules For Warforged and eberron based Races for. You may use the alternative Racial Traits from this website as well so long as they don't Include any Psionics other than Occult Adventures. Ravenloft: Unfortunately I can't seem to find a good enough conversion for anything Ravenloft related- However you may flavor yourself as being from any of the many lands of Ravenloft quite easily. The Dhampir and Skinwalker fitting in quite well. Other Settings: Please ask before putting forward any setting specific races- however I will basically allow pretty much any setting so long as it doesn't clash with the theme of Planescape or D&D
Character Creation:
Here's the real meat! Allowed Content: Official Paizo, and above listed Sources, you may ask about 3pp but don't expect too much.- no spheres of might/power, No Ultimate Psionics Race:any, See Allowed settings above as well as custom races above.
Class: Any Paizo official- Unchained Preffered, however you may apply Vanilla Archetype to Unchained so long as you can replace The equivalent abilities at given levels. Level: 5(see below for Special rules) Starting gold: 3000gp Traits: 2, +1 additional with a drawback Special Rules: We will be using Background Traits, Background Skills, Automatic Bonus Progression, Unchained Skill unlocks, Occult Skill unlocks, and Varient Multiclassing. Applying a Template to yourself!: yes! I am allowing you to apply templates to yourself with the increase to CR counting as a Level. You cannot add levels to yourself this way however and any templates that apply a -CR give you their bonuses(or penalties) but don't adjust your CR unless you already have a template. You can only have one positive Temple and one negative template. You must explain in your backstory how you gained these templates and will have to integrate them into your story. If there is a 3pp template you wish to use, Please pass it by me and I will give my approval or not. Background: I would like you to explain your Characters, Not anything in depth, But a simple explanation as to who you are, where your from, and your motivations, with them I'd like you to apply a 5 minute background.shown here: 1)3 concepts that explain your character 2)2 secrets: one your character keeps from the party, one kept from your character 3)3-5 people with ties to your character (this one isn't needed as much- but you may apply as many or as few as you like) 4)1 goal you'd like your character to achieve, 1 goal you'd like the party to Achieve, and 1 goal you'd like to achieve as a player. 5)I'd like 1 Fear your character possesses as well as 1 Flaw and 1 Positive Trait For any further questions please ask, I know I may have missed alot for there is quite alot to go over...
Right oh, I don't typically do spheres of power/might- despite my players begging me to allow it. I do thing Automatic Bonus Progression is gonna apply here, because magic items are pretty common when walking the planes most of them will be Unique items or Wonderous items- giving you a little extra atop The basics. Other than that I think I'll put an Official Recruitment up once I've pounded out the dents and details in character creation :P
Well ultimately- Like the rule of 3- the game is made of 3 things: The Fluff, The Mechanics, and the Players. Planescape is very heavy in fluff, and doesn't stray far from D&D in Mechanics. Ultimately the fluff and players are the most important parts- with little need to adapt systems to the setting as any system works pretty well... So long as it's D&D related. I'm probably gonna allow Custom races now that I've thought of it- As well as our forward some I've adapted myself from D&D into Pathfinder.
I'm probably gonna start you guys off at around lvl 5 as that level gives you enough power to not have to worry about being squished by small buggers while still limiting your power to an acceptable level. I probably won't go too high level- after all at some point your gonna start drawing the attention of some less than savory Plainers.
Other than that- Story size I feel like this is gonna be a little freeform and I'd like your characters to be like minded, or at least team players.
Greetings folks, before we start I'd like to preface by saying that although this is my first post with this profile, I am actually quite familiar with the website. This was an idea me and a few friends of mine wanted to do, But I'm unable to do it with them for reasons I'm not at liberty to say. Essentially we wanted to do a Starfinder- game where your characters lead an expedition to colonize a foreign planet. the idea being your characters are in a distant system that has been approved for terraformation and colonization. Your party has been sent to scout the newly terraformed planet to determine a good landing site for the colony ship due a few weeks after your arrival. Unfortunately: the method used for terraforming is highly experimental, and often results in hostile and dangerous wildlife. Your job is to catalogue the wildlife and determine if the planet is ready or still requires terraforming. Character Creation
Races: Any- I will allow anything. I'll even allow you to put forward custom races or ask for me to make a race for you (One of my friends wanted to play an uplifted racoon for obvious reasons) Classes:well there isn't anything but core: so just core I guess ;P Ability score: 10 points like usual Everything else: as your standard game- so long as your familiar with the rules Please let me know if you want anything awnsered, or a race made :P |
