"Amid a dull pounding in your temples, you awake and your eyes blearily snap open. Sprawled around you in a dank stone cell are nine other bedraggled sentients, all bound to the floor with chain, like yourself. Guards patrol in front of the bars every few minutes, their torches the only brief illumination you have. You are trapped in this cell with your fellow prisoners like animals. And you know, deep in the depths of your self, that this is not your true fate. Go find it." And then everyone starts talking?
Still here, give me a shout with anything you would like me to do. can you start the IC thread.
well, i have been unexpectedly busy. but one of the CO DMs may start the IC thread for me and take over for a bit.
Alright. Will have stat blocks shortly. I assume you want them pm'd to you? yep. Naberius, you can find some of your stuff at your alchemy shop. just dedeuct the diference from the gear you recover at the prison.
max based on class. so 5d6x10 =300 4d6x10 = 240.
go ahead. everyone pick thier missing gear to recover it. you needn't worry about rations or water at the moment, it's only a prison. the missing gear will be distributed amongst vaults as you go through the prison. consider it max starting gold worth of weapons armor and shields etc. any food, consumables. ammunition etc would be confiscated for military use.
some elite bodyguards and a guard captain. preferably around 4-5th level, lightly armored to make pursuing fugitives easier, and equip to challenge but not quite kill an undergeared party of 10 1st level PCs. low level potions, scrolls or wands are fine, but permanent magic items are not meant to be carried by these guys.
Discussion you may discuss any further details here and finalize your characters. the 10 of you are the chosen inmates. and yes, you will eventually get to recover your gear on the way out. though i still need to stat out boss opponents.
WaterHammer Half Elf Bard
you all get to join. meet me in the discussion thread. i said i was looking for a lot of inmates. and now, i don't have to stat out as many NPC inmates. meet me in the discussion thread.
to help maintain activity. to help resolve issues to help with interpretations to take over when i am unavailable to help select players to assist with decision making to assist with improvising and managing NPCs on the spot. and to keep in check with the lore.
CRB
essentially, i'm giving people the right to get all the crazy out of thier system by channeling it.
exactly. and it also keeps the overpowered SAD casters in line as well.
So Far WaterHammer Half Elf Bard
Questions to Answer Waterhammer, yes, a half elf is fine, the core races are in chapter 1 of the ARG and i said chapters 1-3. Krybyn, yes, you can save points for later, but you must spend at least the first 25. Loup Blanc; you can take infernal bastard, treat it as an alternate racial ability instead of a trait. Akari; Taking a trait and Renaming/Reskinning it is fine. For CO DM Darkone
the four of you can decide among yourselves however you wish.
well, i'm not a very experienced DM, which is why i elected to have to Co DMs. i will allow the 4 Co Dm applicants to sort it out amongst themselves. but i am looking for quite a lot of players. 8-12 is my prefferred amount.
Recruitment lasts till Wednesday to Friday, depending on the number of submissions. i also need 2 CO DMs to assist me with things.
Elan Psion is fine. any specific human ethnicity you resemble?Universal blend... Mediterranian, olive tone (not too swarthy). got at least a rough draft for your build? or a reason for why you are in a Chelexian prison? the minimum i am looking at is attributes, feats, skills, traits and powers.
Elan Psion is fine. any specific human ethnicity you resemble?
You wake up in a Chelexian Jail Cell with no equipment, you awaken bound and gagged. Rules 26 point buy, no starting attributes above 16 after racial modifiers
Humans get +2 to a second attribute of thier choosing, but cannot choose dual talent. you must come up with a reason for why you are inside a chelexian jail cell.
if you want, you can search for a New DM. i thought i could DM, and my lack of confidence bit me like a rattlesnake.
real life is providing issues. i'm gonna have to close this campaign.
Milos:
there are random people just staring at the group with fascination. but they are appearantly harmless. the swindler selling lucky charms gestures towards the groups direction. Ay! come over here! I'll cut you a special deal!
the young lady smiles thank you! . her curse spontaneously manifests again, seeming to make her feel very ill. her excellency was rather feverish, but she wanted to press on anyway. even though it would be bad for her health. a typical manifestation for her.
after a while of on and off travel escaping the cultists of Lamashtu, you find yourseleves back in Caliphas during an overcast day. Lady Umbriere looks towards the party and seems to be trembling with excitement. may we visit Uncle Max? the Area was crowded, most of the crowd was centered towards the market. random swindlers were cheering buy your lucky charms here!
pretty good. i would probably list a description of the DM boon i posted in the other thread. if you have a spare 2,000 and wish to enchant your gun, go ahead.
it could be either one. i could work to accomodate both if i must. children of lamashtu count as followers for the purpose of the save bonus, as do divine casters who follow her.
Recruitment is currently closed at the moment.
yes, you may take combat trick as many times as you have rogue talents if you wish.
Akor, i need to know a little more about your character before i can think of an appropriate boon. but here are is an attempt for the moment. in your service of Calistria, you have brought vengeance on the behalf of others. and as you fled your former faith, you have learned to conceal youself better. you have spell resistance equal to 11+your level against divination spells and when you roll diplomacy checks made to gather information, you may roll twice and use the better result.
dm boons for milo and bear milo in your time hunting followers of lamashtu you have learned to counter aberrant psychology. you are immune to confusion effects and gain half your level as a circumstance bonus on saves made against the spells spell like abilities and supernatural talents of lamashtu and her followers . bear your time with uu has given you a unique synergy. you gain gang up and outflank as bonus feats . and you are treated as having solo tactics for this purpose. you stack your fighter and rogue levels for the purpose of meeting feat prerequisites. your devotion to uu gives you iron will as a bonus feat.
dsp you may say you crafted your gear. you spent the feats. ill allow the discount on gear you can actually craft. anyone with the feats has that privelige
guess i will go with standard half hd plus one. first hd will be maxed as well.
she is more personable and less formal. kind of pushes herself despite being frequently ill. she tries to be accepting when possible. having been raised by her uncle. whom is a rather jolly fellow. nicknames are fine and she knows her name is difficult to remember.
the Discussion Thread For Guardians of the Moonwhisper Heir. please discuss and work on your characters here. for HP generation, i will let the party vote. option 1
option 2
option 3
@Stormraven, Udaya is fine. i figure we could let her use the proponed boon. @Darksmokepuncher, write a character proposal and i may consider adding you. i may have to close recruitment early. Chosen before choosing gets too difficult. Eben The Quiet Stormraven Monkey God Abraham Spalding Arcnight Darksmokepuncher meet me in the Discussion Thread. and lets throw in Bookeeper for a 7th and call this discussion thread closed.
for storm ravens rogue paladin i was considering for a dm boon the following dm boon: your former life as a thief influences your current life . as a paladin you may stray one alignment step further than normal without penalty and you may add your paladin level to your rogue level for the purpose of calculating your sneak attack damage
screw that noise indeed. a sneaky party sounds awesome.
@stormraven, the concepts sound fine. So Our Current Applicants Abraham's Razmiran priest Monkeygod's Inquisitor Arcnights Gunslinger/Rogue Stormraven's Paladin/Rogue Stormravens friends Rogue/Fighter? i beleive that is a fine setup. i can stat out the NPC Heir and we now have a full party.
Abraham, the race combo is fine. it sounds good actually. i noticed you also forgot the freebie feat (which replaces the traits) DM Boon Angel of Razmir in your service as an angel of Razmir, you have learned to mimic one of the key abilities of a cleric to augment your cover. you may channel (your choice at character creation) positive or negative energy a number of times per day equal to 3 plus your charisma modifier as a cleric of a level equal to your sorcerer level. For Arkknight's Rogue/Gunslinger DM Boon This is My Teachers Gun! this well crafted advanced firearm bears your teachers name engraved in the side of the barrel, when wielding this masterwork gun, you are treated as having 2 extra grit points per day that may only be used with this gun. your familiarity with this gun also allows you to double the first range increment. you may reload the entire capacity of this gun as a swift action. all other wielders treat it as a normal masterwork advanced firearm of it's type. the base and masterwork cost of this gun have no impact on your starting wealth, however enchanting it requires you to pay the difference in price.
an Inquisitor should be fine. you can modify your current 5th level inquisitor for all i care.
it will most likely start in ustalav, but expect a lot of travel, you might leave for a bit, return, leave again, return again. you are essentially escorts for a youth on the run from the cultists of Lamashtu. so expect some globetrotting. but gothic horror heroes are fine. if you take the name and concept from a well known literary character, i don't mind. most of the encounters, combat and social alike will be mostly humanoid. there may be the occasional abberration or other creature. but don't expect Cthulu or stuff like that.
@Abraham all 3 races could work. i will leave that up to you. i will try to come up with a fitting DM boon. how do you feel about a free Domain tied to your sorcerer level? i was thinking of Trickery, but i will let you propose alternatives if you wish. the domain spells would be gained as spells known when you gain the appropriate spell level, treated as on your spell list, and use your normal sorcerer slots, and you would have the requisite domain powers. i think it fits the angel of Razmir idea. Trickery. it would also work for the son of Razmir as well. we could combine ideas from the Aasimaar and the Strix concepts. how about a celestial blooded strix who is falsely proclaimed to be the son of Razmir and once lived as one of his "Angels"?. we could combine ideas from the 2. basically, otherwise a strix, but has a hint of celestial blood and maybe could have features pulled from either or.
a multiclass rogue/gunslinger could work. the game isn't technically gestalt. but i could see that working. get started on the concept and i will look into it. i may consider giving a masterwork advanced firearm as a DM boon.
the baron is somebody made up for the campaign. he's an eccentric extravagant middle aged fetchling male who plans to keep his niece alive because she is the closest thing he has to an heir. he is a kind and welcoming fellow and always loves to have a touch of the exotic. he prefers to be called "Uncle Max" and enjoys positive minded fellows. he raised his niece like she was his daughter and he obscesses over her well being to the point of insanity. he also has plenty of embelished stories that most people don't take very seriously which further accent his eccentricy, and he always thinks up new innovative ideas that almost no one accepts. his status as baron is rather laughable. he lives in a mansion at the edge of Caliphas, and children really like him. being related to him wouldn't quite be bad, it would mean a few things, some people would expect you to be as eccentric as he, and young children would like you like they like "Uncle Max". most bards would enjoy your relative's stories and would ask you to get his "autograph". being related would be good if you liked the attention, but it could be a hinderance if you wish to go incognito.
enthusiasm is welcome.
in the dark lands of Ustalav, Baron Maximillian Moonwhisper's Niece had a cursed birth, and traveling cultists of Lamashtu seek to sacrifice the young girl to thier goddess and spread madness over Golarion. i am looking for 4-6 players. well rounded characters are more likely to be picked than one trick ponies. but that doesn't mean you should gimp yourself as a master of none. i can handle a bit of specialization, but please don't go too overboard with it. Character Creation Guidelines.:
Write a minimum of 3 paragraphs Explaining your Connection to the Eccentric Baron Maximillian Moonwhisper and why you decided to protect his frail, young, shadow tainted niece, Lady Umbriere Nera Nox Astrum Lunas Moonwhisper. character creation is 25 point buy with an additional feat, no starting attribute above 18 after racial modifiers and none below 8 after racial modifiers without a good reason. Key Word is After. traits will not be used. every PC also gets a DM boon upon finishing thier submission. Allowed Races Are Core Races, plus any of the reasonable races from the first 2 bestiaries. stuff along the lines of Aasimaar, Normal Drow, and Fetchlings are fine. Drow Nobles, Svirneblin, and similar races of greater power are not permitted Characters will start off 5th level with a starting equipment budget of 12,000 gold pieces, no more than 3,000 of which maybe spent on an individual item. if you want a custom item, you must propose it to me and show me the formula for the cost. obvious cheating like the ring of continuous true striking is not allowed. items may come from the allowed books for classes and feats. Allowed books for classes and Feats include the Core Rulebook, the Advanced Player's Guide, Ultimate Magic and Ultimate Combat. but you must link me each piece of material you use so i can read it. called shots will not be allowed, but you may utilize piecemeal armor and firearms if you wish. there will be no XP, you will level when i say you level. even though no classes are truly banned, there are some i would advise against.:
i would advise against using the gunslinger and other gun using variants because firearms are currently kind of rare and wondrous thing recently discovered and thus wouldn't be as readily available in treasure hordes. i would also advise that martial classes focus on more than just combat and keep an additional backup weapon or 2 of a different type. skills will be needed as well and not dumping charisma too low can save your life due to the expected travel and bargaining. i wouldn't reccomend using the summoner class or similar class that uses extra creatures. it just doesn't make combat fun, and as a somewhat inexperienced DM, i don't wish to read the rules on eidolons. i would advise against evil characters, but if you can explain a good case for your evil character, i might consider it. but please, no trigger happy homocidal psychopaths. other notes:
the opponents will mostly be humanoid in anatomy, and expect few truly monstrous races to be used. i may come across as a little brutal. so as a gift to the party, i offer a numerian defibrillator with 5 charges per day and a solar powered battery. functions as a true ressurection spell but the charges recover each day at noon. due to it's wierd design and seal of Baron Moonwhisper, it cannot be sold. Social Encounters will be fairly important as well. they won't be the primary focus, but they will offer thier own rewards based on how you accomplish them. i know that naming a character is a difficult process, if i use names that sound Sueish, Cliche, or Unoriginal, it is because i didn't want to put up too much effort in naming some NPCs will not be statted, Such as Her Excellency. her Excellency was too ill to complete her first bard level. the auditions will last until Monday, December 12th, 2011.
elves don't have enough meat on thier bones. i think orcs and dwarves taste much better. fattier AND meatier. now, with Orcs and Dwarves, you can make an awesome steak or even an amazing stew.
if you go into a link on the page labeled 'my account' you will be prompted to type a password. type it and enter. on the 'my account' page, there will be a list of your personal messageboard aliases. likely an empty list. there should be a link labeled 'create a new messageboard alias'. you type in a name for this alias and select an avatar than submit it. it's best to name it after the character you are using it for. in your case, Evelyn Salt. to scribe the character, you click the link to the alias profile and click create a profile.
go ahead. i was also wondering Why Wesf hasn't placed his character inside an alias yet.
all of those things are fine.
