Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Tycho follows Raven's lead, grateful for his assistance.

"Thanks friend - dam that trice cursed chicken stew !"

As they return to the barracks Tycho heads for his bunk, taking a few hours rest.

Sorry about my inactivity, been away for a few days due to unforeseen circumstances. Also, I hope you dont mind that I call you Raven, Colrsoss?


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Oh almighty dice gods aid me in this rolling so poor Tycho doesn't faint :P

rolls:

1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

As he removes his red greatcoat he takes a second to contemplate were this is heading. "Straps and buckles ? Oh this better not be what I'm thinking ... I hope I get paird up with someone sober ateast" He gives Cruach a sideway glance as he unbuckles his scabbard from his belt and removes some minor things from his pockets. With a movements hesitation he decides to keep the dagger in his sleeve, in case of unexpected company. After stoving his stuff next to his bunk he rejoins the ranks and starts to warm up.

Do we keep track of exp ourselfes or will you do it oh almighty dm ? And have anyone heard anything from Nithya recently ?


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

"Private Tycho Harkonen, madame."


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Thanks for the new post guys =)!


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Taking a deep breath, Tycho anxiously awaits the Corpral's fury. "Curses ! Raven is still outside! I hope that is what Khair wants to say... otherwise I'll have to say it, and I can tell that I haven't made the greatest impression on the corpral ... She is kind of cute when she is angry thou" Tycho barely manage to suppress a chuckle at his last thought, realizing that laughing out loud at this moment might prove painfull.

Not quite. Still waiting for Pentor to get enough rest (and respond) before I can take over the minutia of running.. I think. If nothing happens by the time I'm off, I'll see what I can manage.

Thanks

Sad but true =)

I belive Caern is still in his room atleast : P

Returning to the barracks after a good meal with Raven and Khair, Tycho's fine mood is broken by the screaming. Quickly putting two and two together, he realises that he currently is knee deep in shit. He swallows the most of his fear, gather his composure and straighten his back before confronting the furious woman.
"Tycho Harkonen of the Tempest Coven reporting Sire!" he exclaims in a loud voice. "Sorry" he added in his normal tone, hoping to make an honest impression atleast.

"God this feels just like when mum caught me stealing cookies..." he thought.

Tempest Coven is shaping up nicely. Welcome aboard all.

Why thank you ! =)


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Just doing a quick headcount:

Nithya - Summoner
Tycho - Sandman
Caern - Inquisitor
Ceragia - Evoker
Jaqen - Monk
Khair - Gunslinger
Smoke Raven - Raider (rouge)
Cruach - Fighter

3 Secondary Casters, 1 Primary (but a Summoner is almost a primary caster anyway, and Quigong monk has some tricks also)

2 with full bab, 5 with 2/3 and 1 with 1/2


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Tycho leads the way to an not to shabby tavern he passed by earlier, he mainly listening to the converstation between Khair and Smoke Raven.

"Yeah - The usual stuff I suppose, gold and glory" he blinks as he replies to Khair. "Well, truthfully, its more about the chance to make something out of myself, and as a bonus I get to see the world. Don't worry, I can take care of myself, no harm done thou"

The small group arrives at its destination - The Red Fox Inn - and Tycho opens the door gesturing to Smoke Raven and Khair to get in while he holds the door.

"Now, lets see if we can fill our stomachs with some hot food."


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

After his quick rest, Tycho decides to get some fresh air. When he notices that both Jaqen and Ceragia is gone he smiles slyly and starts to hum a children's rythem involving then and a three. When he gets out he notices the two newest members of the squad [Khair & Smoke Raven]. "Why hello there, you must be our new comrades. My name is Tycho" he says and makes a slight bow, curiosly eyeing both the strange man resting on the street and the one playing with a small pice of paper.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Atempting to understand Jaqens gestures, and keeping an eye to the door so that noone else sneak up on him, he replys "Do that, I'll give you two some privacy then" He smiles and blinks to Jaqen before continuing talking "Be sure to check out the Warlock's Walk, its quite far from here, but the wonders there are worth it!" Tycho waves goodbye to Jaqen and Ceragia and sits down along the wall, practising minor legerdemain tricks with a coin and a dagger and thinking about how glorius it would be to trip one of the two golems endlessly patrolling the Warlock's Walk...

Khair Colbad wrote:

A figure entered the room, a mismatched cloak drawn tight against him, it's mix of earth tones and forest greens seemed odd from this close. He wore a dark green scarf wrapped around his head and face, keeping him from view entirely.

He eyed the men and women that had arrived before him, but moved to one of the corners of the room and took a seat, quietly contemplating the odds of their CO arriving shortly.

Well met and welcome ! Clicky - head over here and join us ! =)


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Starled by Jaqen sudden whistle Tycho leaps several feet in the air and uther a series of curses to foul for a public forum. When he realises who the man in black is he atempts to regain his composure. "Oh hello, didn't see you coming" He exclaims calmly, but a tinge of nervosity still remains in his voice.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

After a quick walk with Caern Tycho returns to find that Ceragia also has arrived. "Hey there Ceragia ! Me and Caern was just checkin out the neighbourhood - and this city wonderfull... I've never seen this many arcane wonders in a long time." Tycho tilts his head sligtly to the right as he realises that there is a weasel sitting on Ceragias shoulder. "Oh - Cera - I think there is a weasel on you shoulder"


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

"Exellent ! Lets go then, I've heard that the parade grounds are a sight for the gods."


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

I've switchd out my Improved Initiative for another feat from UM:

Spellsong

You can blend the power of your performance and spellcasting.

Prerequisites: Cha 13, bardic performance class ability, able to cast 1st-level spells.

Benefit: You can combine your bardic performance and your spellcasting in two ways. First, you can conceal the activity of casting a bard spell by masking it in a performance. As a swift action, you may combine your casting time of a spell with a Perform check. Observers must make a Perception or Sense Motive check opposed by your Perform check to realize you are also casting a spell. This uses 1 round of your bardic performance ability, regardless of the spell's casting time.

Second, as a move action, you can use 1 round of bardic performance to maintain a bard spell with a duration of concentration. You can cast another spell in the same round you are using bardic magic to maintain concentration; if you do this, your concentration on the maintained spell ends when you end the bardic performance the spell is part of.

Asuming its ok =)

Another point, since the game is not yet on, I'm thinking of switching out my Know(arcana) for another knowledge skill, seeing that we already have that skill coverd by multiple chars =)


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Dotting. We are slightly more refined, mr fury, thats why ; )

Tycho swiftly claims the upper bunk in one of the rooms, unloading his heavy backpack as a mark of ownership on the thin and not to comfortable looking bed.
"Ahh a place to rest, finaly!" After catching his breath, and resting for about a minute, he once agian bursts into action, vibrating like a little children on christmas. "I've hear a lot of things about this city, and there is so much to see ! Anyone up for a quick walk ? Besides, we still have to wait for the rest of the squad"
Tycho looks around waiting for someone to answer his request, smiling like a child.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

"So then friend Caern, do you play card?" Tycho asks as he looks at Caerns fortune teller deck.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Exellent tea Nithya ! And its even my favorite kind ... free
Tycho laughs at his own horrible joke and takes another sip of tea, sweeping his gaze his strange companions.
So then, a caller of souls, a fiery mage, a mime and only the prince knows what. What a merry bunch we make. Although, I must say I share Ceragias desire for a thick wall of steel to intercept any bolt bent on drawing my blood.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

Ceragia and Nithya is it then - its good to know the names of the people we are going bleed with.

:
Tycho don't appear to have any ulterior motives at the time

Perhaps it would be usefull to know eachothers set of skills, so we can organize appropriately? I can start with confessing my interest in the great art, but I'll be the first to admit that I only know a few meager cantrips.

Tycho looks from Nithya to Ceragia and back agian, hopeing for them to reveal more about themselves then he did.

OOC: :) Tycho is more rogueishly built then a normal bard thanks to the sandman architype, just so you know (aka dont expect that many songs of inspire compitense). However at higher levels I expect he will be able to carry his weight with debuffs and direct magical application. For now he will mainly use his extensive skillset and mundane tricks


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

"Ah I would never dream of refusing such an offer!"
Tycho leans over to greet the strange man, and also to get a closer look on his exotic appearance.
"And what would your talents be then, good sir? You dont look like the swordswinging type, mind my manners. Are you perhaps a disciple of the great art?"


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

"mmm Do I smell the glorius scent of food?"

A pale man in red appears from the shadows and approaches the fire, sitting down on the opposite side from Ceragia.

"I presume that this is the meetingplace for the fourth squad? I am Tycho Harkonen, a pleasure to meet you"

Tycho gives Ceragia a courtly nod, and continues to gaze upon the food


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1

I'll vote for Nex and Tempest Coven

The pathfinder wiki is a good place to start. Just google pathfinder wiki, and you'll find it.

I'm happy wherever, but I like the idea of being in a high magic land, and in the inner sea, magic goes up as you go south.

Will go and check the wiki out, I'm not terrible familiar with paizo's world. High magic however sounds about right for this squad, its either that or a teribly magic low region (were people would pay good money for spellcasting services).

Also - the books I used in char gen was core and the apg, and a trait from the guide to Qadira (to get Disable Device as a class skill). However, was planning on takeing the Eldritch Heritage feat on lvl 3 from Ultimate Magic - subjected to gm approval and my own survival that is =)

from pfsrd:

Prerequisites: Cha 13, Skill Focus with the class skill of bloodline selected for this feat (see below), character level 3rd.

Benefit: Select one sorcerer bloodline. You must have Skill focus in the class skill that bloodline grants to a sorcerer at 1st level (for example, Heal for the celestial bloodline). This bloodline cannot be a bloodline you already have. You gain the first-level bloodline power for the selected bloodline. For purposes of using that power, treat your sorcerer level as equal to your character level – 2, even if you have levels in sorcerer. You do not gain any of the other bloodline abilities.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 1
