I want an orcling. If we're starting at 3rd level, he may be a barbarian / rogue. It's looking like INT, WIS, and CHA will definitely be dump stats. Heh.
EDIT: This is a chaotic twisted Grimm campaign, you know. :D
Here you go... :D
Orcling Characters
Orclings are the bastard offspring of Orcs and Halflings. They are shunned by both races and are treated as less than second class citizens.
+2 Constitution, +2 Wisdom, -2 Strength: Orclings are hardy, having learned to withstand many hardships. They are also cunning, but retain the physical weakness of their Halfling parents.
Small: Orclings are Small and gain a +1 size bonus to their AC, a +1 size bonus on attack rolls, a -1 penalty to their CMB and CMD, and a +4 size bonus on Stealth checks.
Fast: Orclings are fast for their size, and have a base speed of 30 feet.
Senses: Orclings have low-light vision.
Mixed Blood: Orclings count as both Orcs and Halflings for any effect relating to race.
Hardy: Orclings gain a +2 racial bonus on Fortitude Saves.
Sneaky: Orclings gain a +2 racial bonus to Perception and Stealth.
Second Class Citizen: Orclings always begin any encounter with Orcs or Halflings as if that being’s attitude were Unfriendly.
Can we go with the +2 to STR & DEX and -2 to WIS and INT? Then switch out Perception to something else? Whatcha think?
How did I know you were going to pimp Big John before I even clicked that? :)My current Pen & Paper Character in Rise of the Runelords. :)Orcling. Hmm...
He's going to be a barbarian. With very low wisdom. Heh.
Wait...we're starting at 3rd level, right?
"Hey screw you buddy... I don't need no girly man to Pimp me out. I can Pimp myself out just fine!"
What's better, the rogue's evasion or the barbarian's uncanny dodge?
I might have him play the flute.Okay. Half-elf bard it is.+1
What are you going to Profess in?
The syrinx?
Professor, are you going to be a cleric of Mercury or Apollo? For this PbP, I'm seeing Mercury...
What's better, the rogue's evasion or the barbarian's uncanny dodge?Both...
Although if I had to choose I'd choose Evasion hands down, but only if you have a high Reflex Save. I do love me some Evasion...
Barbarian 1 / Rogue 2 it is, then. Thanks!
...but then again, a rogue talent versus a rage power ... hmmmm, decisions decisions...

Two physical stats getting bonuses is too munchkin-y. :)

Just remember, you need to be in Light Armour for Evasion to be effective.
Professor, are you going to be a cleric of Mercury or Apollo? For this PbP, I'm seeing Mercury...
Hermes, definitely. When you start looking at the actual primary source material, Apollo is really just an oracular god who muscled out Helios over a long period of time. Hermes is a major player. Also, if we are going level 3, I think I'll take one level of rogue.

Well....he is a ... munchkin. :P

I definitely planned to be in light armor regardless.
...but then again, a rogue talent versus a rage power ... hmmmm, decisions decisions...Your horc/orng should be more "ragey".
What would make a good 'rage' power for an orcling, then?

Good man!
Why aren't we posting all this in the discussion thread?
Uh...thank you Captain Obvious. I'll go there right now.
Proposed orcling rage power:
Furious bite: Combing the appetite of a halfling and the ferocity of the orc, the orcling barbarian has learnd to 'take a bite out of crime' and can make an extra bite attack (1d4 dam, 1/2 str bonus) at his full att bonus during a full attack action. He may also use his bite as a single atttack during the charge. If the orcling has rogue levels and the bite counts as a sneak attack, it causes bleeding.
OK, since I start work in just over 3 hours I guess I should get at least a little bit of sleep, right...
Don't know how you do it unless you sleep on the job. =D

Well, there's already this:
Animal Fury (Ex): While raging, the barbarian gains a bite attack. If used as part of a full attack action, the bite attack is made at the barbarian's full base attack bonus –5. If the bite hits, it deals 1d4 points of damage (assuming the barbarian is Medium; 1d3 points of damage if Small) plus half the barbarian's Strength modifier. A barbarian can make a bite attack as part of the action to maintain or break free from a grapple. This attack is resolved before the grapple check is made. If the bite attack hits, any grapple checks made by the barbarian against the target this round are at a +2 bonus.
...which makes me think I got what rage power I want. Thanks for the tip, niel!
And P.S. Welcome to our not-so-humble home. =D

I did that last week while on Painkillers, when I started at 4am. Instead of doing my paperwork I curled up on the floor and fell asleep for 2 hours... :/
Too much Japanese food...
...but never enough Thai.
Starving...
Are you going to make it to Saturday in one piece?

For me personally, I find that Japanese food is the worst possible thing to be overstuffed with. For some reason there is a peculiar sickly feeling that goes along with it, but I don't know why.Too much Japanese food.....is there such a thing?
Well since I am only now off to my lunch I will avoid any raw fish

Happy Earth Day Fawtlites. Added a few new pictures recently. Took a couple-few this morning before the rains came again.
Slow site.

More fantastic work, Moff.
Yeah, the Paizo site's been slow today...then again, everything has. I hope the good lord isn't listening, but it's been a rather boring day today.

As FhDM (and later CrimJ) said, Moff. Sorry for the vagueness.
Evening.
I wasn't feeling too well and went to bed around 1900 last night and then didn't get up until 0600 (late) but still made it to work on time.
Stupid slow site. :(
Yeah. It has been very sluggish today. I wonder who's fault it is this time.
