I remember a character a while back that initially was supposed to be a highly charismatic cleric/wizard Mystic Thurge who was going to be a seductress with alot of charm spells... But she turned more twards the Revenge side of her deity(she was a cleric of Calistra) I remember there was a point where a dragon insulted her, So she blasted the *explitive* with A fireball/flamestrike maximized with a rod of metamagic... It was a white dragon, So a lvl 15 wizard/cleric dropped two flame spells for around 30*6 fire damage on its head and it takes more damage at that point... It can be safely said that Somtimes high level characters are stupidly overpowered
Wonderful! I didn't ;P But o can easily use my Favored class bonus to put an extra point in linguistics and get that language Also- marked it as "Common sign language" not drow sign language, assuming that that's allowed. Otherwise I actually intended to just nod and shake head for yes and no, and only use social skills and such at a later date ;P
As a character I probably will fill out a Ranger-esk role. I'm a support Melee, But my low AC is outshined by by natural weapons and multiple attacks. I can also track enemies, Sneak into places 1/8th my size, and be generally pretty sneaky. I mean, If I can revert back Into a blob, and hide as a puddle of water or something like that, Or hide in places only diminutive creatures can get to... I make an excellent scout. my immunity to precision damage and flanking also allows me to get in deep with the enemies and provide flanking bonuses- While I'm also taking dirty Fighting to allow me to use those flanking advantages to use combat manuvers without penalty. Although I'll probably still use manufactured weapons due to the higher damage than my natural weapons for a little. At least until I can turn giant. My main issue with combat is that I'm currently built as a Damage sponge, And that will only get better as I level- Getting DR/slashing really early... However I do know there are enemies out there that can oneshot past my DR and my HP- so my advancement will mostly focus on getting enemies on bad situations fast...
For the most part, My limit on communication will likely only be limited lower levels, And outside of that, I plan on Velusia wearing a Mask and Thick robes anyways, Outside of their Slime. So they look like a cloaked mute most of the time, I might look into taking a feat or trait that allows me to use minor Telepathy or something like that... I think it might be a good idea for me to meld background with someone else so that they know I'm not just a gormless mute, and am actually a human taken in by the fey after a tragic accident with a robot that had rendered his body onto a mass of goo... I find it interesting how base land speeds are kept, But no other speeds are. I'm human in every way- Except anything from physical traits. I.e. I'm human but clearly I look like a slime, So DC to disguise as a puddle of slime is probably really easy....still need to eat, sleep, breathe, and such, Incan be grappled(although who would grapple a slime?) And technically I'm still wounded and healed normally.

that sounds hillarious, Although it does state in the class features I'm able to form natural weapons as a swift action, This should mean I'm also able to form shapes as a swift action... Outside of human form I like to imagine I can't form limbs, but can stand upright as a pillar or blob, I'm gonna have my character always wearing a cloak, with all of his equipment floating inside him... Of course. Just gives me ideas for combat when he shifts to a human, shoves a hand in his chest and slowly draws a Longsword from within.

Forming shapes? sign language would be easy, But it would force everyone to take it as well if they want to understand me, For now I'll just brush it off, as by the time I turn lvl ~5 I can remain in shape for 5 hours before having to save so... Just gonna have to get used to my character being mute most of the time.... the biggest downside is I'm only able to do it 1/day per level. I mean, J get why it's made this way, But the inability to speak is my main concern.
The biggest problem about being a Blob: I can't talk, Have no item slots, Can't wear armor, and sevral smaller things. On top of that- I can only remain in a humanoid shape 1 hour a day before having to make a fort save to remain in the form for another hour. I was hoping to discuss something like being able to communicate in this form without having to shift into a humanoid form, or at least lower the DC to remain humanoid in order to talk and communicate... It would be nice to not have to wait until lvl 5 before I'm able to be social. How I'll likely play this out- I'll probably be a human who was CHANGED into a slime via external sources and my class is more me learning to change back into my humanoid form while simultaneously learning more about how it works...
Kobold klan here, I'm planning on making an Oozemorph Shifter, To fill out a melee role as well as push some Druid into the group. However I'm gonna play Him as a follower of the lost prince, Dedicated to preserving the safety of the land while uncovering the secrets to the technology buried under torch. As an Oozemorph however I do have some complications that need addressed a little. I.e. being an amorphous blob 90% of the time with a limited amount of time I can remain in a non-blob shape. |
