Oh Karrin! (Guy) ;P
I luv that girl. She cracks me up.
Semi-seriously, how do you make her sound so, natural? Are you a blond IRL? ;)
I have to work HARD to get a PC ramble on, you seem to be able to produce them at will! ;)
Well, the real secret is to realize that Karrin is actually incredibly smart, and so what I do is start with an idea and then think of how I can ramble my way into that idea as if by accident. So in this instance Karrin wants information, she wants to know if there was indeed another god involved here and if this guy can name it. She's also looking to see if this guy will drop any more hints or names. She doesn't mention Tcian Sumere here, even thought it might catch this guy off guard, because she doesn't want him to know that they know. If he turned to mist once he might do it again and warn his fellow cultists.
In the previous ramble Karrin wants to stress that she believes her vision but she's also not looking to sell her friends and compatriots on some easy mission, so the point that there's a good 10% chance that there's a safe fortress in the negative plane is what she's selling and so she works her way towards it, in that speech where she tries to convince everyone that they shouldn't pick on Bethany what she's actually doing is trying to calm everyone down rather then actually help Beth, she makes strong points to start but then pretends to get all scatterbrained towards the conclusion which weakens her statement. This way, the points Karrin makes does stick with the group, but they disregard the source, and seeing as Karrin is clearly scatterbrained they can't even be sure that she'll have the same conclusions if asked again and thus she maintains a level of neutrality.
All illusions about Karrin are thus dispelled.

LOL!
Or confirmed. ;PThat girl is crazy. Like a fox. ;)

I'm recruiting some meat shield talent. Never fear
Oh I think it's too late for not fearing! ;P
<Sigh> It's only fair I suppose. After all we are known for dishing out stupid amounts of damage (Especially at lower levels, where all my +CL feats really kicked in!)
I suppose it's only fair to remind our PC's that they aren't the only dangerous peeps on the block! ;)
Having said all that,... Justin thinks that having a large, durable Meat Shield to hide behind (Preferably one that can also hit back!) would be awesome right about now! :D
| Hamar of the Hyena Tribe |
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
That is,... a very unusual combination. :/
But it worked! ;)
And Karrin IS the thing that people fear!
I just don't think this mummy-guy is 'people' ;P
This is one of those groups that at table top would be amazing. Not that it's not amazing now but at table top with these players synchronizing it would be downright scary!

OK! Heidy ho, neighberinos! It seems we need a meat shield in our group. As the current fight points out, some of these bad guys can bring the pain. In that vein, I have reached out to our two runners up from last time, and both are still interested in joining.
So, for the current folks! I am going to have them post their ideas for a meat shield in the recruiting thread. I would like you to take a look at them.
| Patrick Curtin |
Hey guys,
We have two possibles for the game. Take a look at their concepts posted on the recruitment thread, and evaluate them. If you want, you can post any questions to them on the recruiting thread. Any concerns or things yous like to say privately, PM me. I want a good fit for our game.

Well, from my point of view they're about the same, and without a backstory it would be unfair to evaluate both buuuuut with Edward Sobel's character being a grappler, that would fit in well with Karrin's backstory a bit as we all know Karrin has a bit of a wrestling obsession. We all remember that one time Merle talked Karrin into putting a sleeper hold on Justin :D
| Ragadolf |
Seriously., What I got from each character sheet they are both very interesting. And physically competent.
(I think Justin would rather get another sleeper hold from Karrin rather than arm wrestle either of these guys!) ;P
But I think it is only fair to wait until we get a short backstory on both before really comparing.
In THIS game at least, it seem that character really IS part of 'Character sheet'! :)
Looking forward to a difficult decision. ;)
| Ragadolf |
FYI- Justin's Story- Chapter 4 (Part 1) is now up!
"We're off to see the Barmies!"
I actually have part 2 already, but the entire thing was long (almost 23 pages with all the spacing) and I'm trying to edit/proofread, but my eyes are getting blurry. (Lack of sleep AND old glasses) ;P
So part 2 will post soon, either later tonight, or after I get off work late tomorrow.
Enjoy! :)

Okay, stat blocks, I like Cyx (plus I like saying Cyx)
Storywise I think Arnav Longarm is stronger, plus I do like the idea of a hero with NPC levels.
I think, if I were to vote, I think I'd have to give it to Longarm. Both were really fun, lots of background stuff that Pat could draw from but Longarm is probably the better fit for the group.

Welcome, save some flesh for Hamar to cut and we'll get along just fine...
| Arnav Longarm |
Welcome, save some flesh for Hamar to cut and we'll get along just fine...
Oh, I don't expect to get everybody. I expect I'll be the guy standing still while you dance around behind the bad guys cutting their legs out from under them.
