I think I will go straight fighter this time. Get us posted on how the search is going. I will keep checking here.
I think originally we went with 18/8 + 10 point buy - Let me know if you want to go with 15 & i'll add 5 points to aerys' stats
|
I figure we can just use the old Discussion thread, right boss?
Okay so for a recap on classes, we have:
Kieran the Myopic (randall793) -> Oracle (Divine slot)
Asashandra Ziliviu (Hymenopterix) -> Rogue (Skill slot)
Aerys Trajyon (Sir Not Appearing in thie Film)-> Sorcerer (Arcane slot)
[No Name] (RaFon) -> Fighter? (Fighter slot)
And me.
I'm not sure what I'll play yet - probably something with full BAB.
I will try to get something up today or tomorrow. Working weird hours this week (happens rarely). Could someone link the discussion thread for me, please.

Can't we just use this one? I don't see a need for a do-over.
And I'm currently thinking of playing either an Inquisitor for the group-boosting goodness and extra spellcasting. Or some kind of Fighter/Sorcerer, in order to try out Eldritch Knight, unless our illustrious DM will let me play a Magus...
Thoughts?
I went with the 10 point buy...if I need to change it, let me know. This is what I'm working on.
I'm ready. Might want to check over the character to make sure I did everything right.
Thanks!

If we want to just continue using this thread, that's perfectly fine. And yes, you can play a Magus, although depending on what happens, since it's still in the Playtest stage, we may have to make a slight edit one way or the other. Still, version 2 looks fairly balanced. I'll link this thread for the others.
Kias, everything looks solid. Sure you don't want to use any of that remaining gold, though?
We can use this thread for OOC, but I think I'm going to make a new in-game thread to just clean things up.
Hi Guys, nice to meet everyone! - I'm always a fan of having background links with other players that extend backwards before the start of play - if anyone'd like to link backgrounds see my char sheet. Asasha is from Korvosa and has been working aboard the ship since Magnimar. (see my profile).
*Rolls across into the OOC thread*
Xane has skills as a sailor, but would be more of a deck hand and a cargo hauler than a rigging monkey.

Awesome. Thanks boss! I'll get started on my character right away.
BTW - What Campaign Traits have people taken?
Ah, rolling the character over from another game, I've left my traits as they are. Haven't looked up the campaign specific ones.
Even assuming the character is allowed in.
Still assuming I might be in with a chance, being a part of the ship's crew loks like a good option for Xane. *Bows*
Kias likewise boarded in Magnimar. Working as a sell-sword. We would probably make some connection.
@jlighter...I'll check on the purchases. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure we're full at the moment. The DM originally wanted two players, and ended up taking three. Keep an eye out though!
*Bows*
Missed it by that much! *Holds two fingers up and slightly spaced apart*
=)
BTW - What Campaign Traits have people taken?
River Rat and Jenivere Crew
- which reminds me... I have to change my background slightly for the River Rat background,.. hmmm.
Kias likewise boarded in Magnimar. Working as a sell-sword. We would probably make some connection.
Depending on what city you came from (i'm from Korvosa) we could have known each other for a long time. If you check my b/g we're from a similar rung in social ladder (the one at the bottom!). I could easily change references to "Katalin" to references to you. However, given that we've known each other since at least Magnimar its not a big deal.
Thoughts?
I'm good with whatever.
Hi, everybody - I was going to keep Aerys pretty much the same as before, if that's ok with everyone. Human sorc. with ferret familiar/advisor. I did take 2 points off his con & added them to charisma if that's ok - thought the extra spells/day & DC boost was more worthwhile than the hit point.
His campaign traits are boarded in the shackles & deft dodger - growing up on the run at least paid off in a little extra durability & reflexes...
Kieran is almost finished. How much gold? Average as per class? Lump sum?

We will be starting fresh, yes. And apologies, Xane, but we did close. I'll keep you in mind should my track record as far as being able to hold on to characters persists.
To everybody else. Just to check in with people on their characters, in no particular order.
-EDIT-
Okay, you put most stuff in place before I got this post up. Take a look at your ability scores per what I said above. Yours look slightly odd.
And in reviewing your characters, it seems that we have randomly arrived at a lack of non-humans. Just an observation. Still, you're all looking good. Mostly just housekeeping details at this point and waiting for two characters to fill out a bit. I'll check back later today, and depending on how things go we'll see the IC thread go up in the next day or two.
*Bows* Thank you for even the consideration. =)
Best of luck every one and may the dice gods smile upon your endeavours. =)
Should I keep an open for this thread with concern for requests for 'new' players? Or will there be another request thread in Gamer Connection?
*Bows* I hope I am un-needed. =)
Cheers to all
** spoiler omitted **
Changes made,... should be OK now.
I had used the 8 for my strength, buying 2 more points, and the 18 for charisma, + my racial bonus. Do things not add up?
It would work. I thought we had laid out before, though, that the 8 and the 18 couldn't be bought up with points. If we didn't, my apologies. That was the idea I was operating on.
Asasha: Looks better, although there's still the question regarding your skill modifiers.
Hmmm... thought i changed those, .. weird. i'm ready to go!
Okay, I've revised it again. Str(18+2) Dex(12)=2 Cons(12)=2 Int(10) Wis(8) Cha(14)=6. Correct?
Gold=105gp from average class +200gp from trait(get it through)
BTW, @psionicfox what teamwork feats you have in mind in the future? I'd be game for being teamwork buddies.
It would work. I thought we had laid out before, though, that the 8 and the 18 couldn't be bought up with points. If we didn't, my apologies. That was the idea I was operating on.
If you prefer, i'll just revert my stats back to previous - bring charisma back down to 18 & con back up to 12. No problem.
So I starting playing Hordes this weekend, and I have fallen in love with the Legion of Everblight. To wit, Warlocks, going to battle with mighty Warbeasts under their control are awesome.
To bring us a scholar, some racial variation, and some muscle, I present to you Zarzuket Ganwhistle, Gnomish historian and summoner.
Needed to roll for my Eidolon's HP. I rolled a 7. :( Can I have max HP at level one for my Eidolon? 7 HP is lame.
We will be starting fresh, yes. And apologies, Xane, but we did close. I'll keep you in mind should my track record as far as being able to hold on to characters persists.

Added a hit point.
As I was perusing the party characters, I noticed a lot are going the Intimidation route, perhaps Dazzling Display?
My base Intimidation skill at Lvl 1 is already 14. If any of the party is keen for that, I would like to change my skill set so we won't overlap.
Valgoth has it, but only because I want him to be scary. A Gnome is not scary. Scary smart maybe, but not out and out "Oh god, oh god, don't let it kill me!" scary.
My bad, I took an extra feat at 1. Now intimidation is actually 9.

Mkay. Well, things are looking good. I think Kieran may have just missed posting as himself. Unless I'm mistaken, Mr. Thirstslaken?
Otherwise, we're looking good. Aerys, we'll work with how things are.
Mr. Ganwhistle, I see no reason why Valgoth wouldn't get the full HD at first level. I'm curious about 2 things, though. First, your remaining gold seems to have disappeared into the aether. Second, the fact that you took the Dangerously Curious trait and then didn't take advantage of what it offered.
What's everybody think. Ready to start?
Asasha is ready and eager to get started! - I'm running Kingmaker but this is the first chance i've had to play an AP.
Fixed and ready to rock!
My bad x 2! I'm ready to start, though I'll punch in the general background in and remaining gold.
Ready.
Yep - adequately prepared to rock.

Okay. In the words of distinguished political figure Henry Kissinger: "It is time to rock."
We'll skip the boarding sequences this time around and jump to a point after you all have boarded. As a note, it would help to know exactly what ports you all got on at, and make sure you've read the Player's Guide for this AP.
Here's the IC Thread. We'll be using a fresh one and discarding the old one so as to avoid confusion.
Aerys would have boarded in Quent, in The Shackles. Prolly should've renamed him this time around, now that I've noticed there's an NPC of the same name :). Was there a particular order you wanted us to start posting on the IC thread or everyone just dive in?
Throwing a reply to show I saw the message. =)
So, what does the group need/want?
As for Xane. The character has been picked up in another game so changing her stats aren't really an option. Which is not to worry as I have other characters who's games have fallen through. =)
I would like to make yet another clone of 'Sunset', 'Suny' etal. I find the character's mind set a very easy one to drop into and roll play 'off the cuff' as it were.
Much cheers to you and yours. *Bows*
Yah, since every one's starting as 1st Lvl, Xane is definitely too big for the crew etc. (^_~) Which is not to say I don't know how to 'break' her down and spread her out over many levels to create a '0' shift character. Though folk's comments about the 'Munchkin' of it all are at the fore front of my mind. =)
Here be an offerin' of a Suny whut's had her game drop out from un'er herself. (^_^)
i'd like to propose either Dimitri Molotov, Shuriken Nekogami, or Jack. i will let the party pick. Dimitri is more suited to a high fantasy steampunk setting, Shuriken is more suited to an oriental campaign and jack is a fit for any campaign involving cheleiax. but my vote goes to jack.
I be awaitin' the DM's judgement, but th' dice gods, they don't seem t' shine on me a'tall.....
Lookin' forwards t' whut ever happens. (^_^)
