Discuss any game matter you wish here.


Radavel - as queried in the main thread, would you consider a de-powered Rakshasa? - otherwise I'll come up with something else.

Also, of the other four guys - have they settled on characters yet?

Send me your proposal through the email, and we'll see what we can do.

Nope. The other 4 have not yet made known their choices.


Male Pale Master

I had actually made a 7th level character for another game that Id like to adapt for this one (monk/sorcerer/dragon disciple) but im willing to make changes or play something else to keep the party balanced.

Dark Archive

Stielh9s, there being seven players, I would prefer that you make a character that you really like.


Male Pale Master

Noted and thank you. In that case I'll stick with the monk/sorcerer/dragon disciple.

Dark Archive

Before I forget, make strong PCs, the prison readily weeds out the weak.


Male Silver Dragon

I was thinking of playing a Human Bard. ~wicked smile~ Strength can be measured in other way than physical.


First pass Rakshasa proposal should be in your inbox.

I agree with that. Send me the sheet.

I will when I get home. All my books are there.


Male Pale Master

@ Radavel - Do you want us to use the die roller on here for Hit Points? With full HPs @ first level?


Male Human Sorcerer

I will just be going as a Half Orc Sorcerer. Planning to either use the Elemental (Air) or Verdant bloodlines and really kick some ass. Evoking magic mainly, so getting out of the dungeon shouldn't be a problem.

Character sheet will come along in the next few hours, that be a promise.

Dotting, for a start.

We look to have a lot of arcane on the rise, so I will look at either a Melee cleric-ish, or just a melee class no casting.

One question about PF. Is there anything like the feat in 3.5 Tomb-tainted soul, that lets you be healed by inflict/negative energy spells?

Also, I think I will maybe playing a female, to me nothing says evil more than women, even moreso women with power. ;)

For the Power point prog, look for an e-mail from an Earthpig.

Full Hitpoints.

Will go over the stuff I got in the inbox tonight.

Just so you guys have an idea of the sort of prison we have here and you can prepare. You guys have been turned to stone for the duration of your sentence at least that is all you remember until the start of the PBP.


Male Pale Master

Thats brilliant!


Mixed Umm, Aardvark.. DUH! Barbarian 8/ Senator 2/ Pope 5

I think I'm gonna go ahead and reserve Changeling Anti-paladin. That being said, will my changeling claws work with the fiendish boon weapon ability?

I too like the idea of turned to stone, it does easily resolve the issue of "why would I be in prison if I can just...?"

EDIT: Also, with the fiendish servant. If I want to keep the same type of creature (in this case the Fiendish Lion from Summon IV), instead of swapping it out every 2 levels, is there a way it grows in power instead of taking something more powerful?

Female Human Bard / 7

I have the basic premise laid out, but I fell asleep. ~grins~ I will take my books with me to work and work on it during lunch.

RPG Superstar 2008 Top 16

Well I was originally thinking a female tifeling, sorcerer/druid using the serpent bloodline/serpent shaman. Seeing a lot of caster types I am thinking now that something a bit more warrior is needed. Maybe an Urban Ranger or a Urban Ranger thief multiclass. I wont be able to do any character work until the end of the week/ early next week so I send you something then/ unless my exams melt my brain first.


Assuming Radavel and I can work out a decent de-powering, I'll be playing a Rakshasa set up as a Dex based fighter. Either finesse weapon, or grappler.

RPG Superstar 2008 Top 16

Currently I am thinking a 3 Urban Ranger/ 3 Investigator/ 1 Assassin, just not sure what race I want to go with.

I think I will allow the claws to work with fiendish boon.

However, the fiendish servant is not with you at the time of incarceration.

I was thinking an Inquisitor. It is not a healer.


Male Pale Master

@ Radavel - thanks for the full Hit Points! Im sure we'll need them though...

@ Aardvark - I cant find anything like that Tomb Tainted Soul feat. Isnt Pathfinder supposed to be backwards compatable with 3.5?

heres a rundown of character concepts so far

Mark Sweetman - Rakshasa
Stiehl9s - Monk/Sorcerer/Dragon Disciple
Sharoth - Bard
Jestem - Half Orc Sorcerer
Aardvark - Changeling Anit-Paladin
Mithril Dragon - Urban Ranger/Investigator/Assassin
Drayen - Inquisitor


Male Human Sorcerer

Just a quick question. You say full hp, do you mean full hp for each level?

Yes max out your HP. Moreso now that I noticed that there is no dedicated healer in the party.

@Stielh9s, thanks for the roster update.

With the lack of healer in mind - let me drop the Rakshasa idea and pick up a 'Mad Scientist' Alchemist instead. Taking the Chirugeon and Vivisectionist Archetypes from Ultimate Magic.

I'll still be a happy chappy as I have some vile ideas of what to do with him :)

Dark Archive

Do I see the Reanimator or Dr. Frankenstein?


Male Pale Master

roster update

Mark Sweetman - Chirugeon and Vivisectionist Alchemist
Stiehl9s - Monk/Sorcerer/Dragon Disciple
Sharoth - Bard
Jestem - Half Orc Sorcerer
Aardvark - Changeling Anit-Paladin
Mithril Dragon - Urban Ranger/Investigator/Assassin
Drayen - Inquisitor

Since I haven't set on anyone type of character I see what I can come up with that will have some kind of healing. Maybe I'll tweak the Assassin idea and make an Urban Ranger / Urban Druid. Not sure how to make him/her evil though. Maybe and Urband Druid / Assasin? HMMM..

Dark Archive

An extreme eco-terrorist perhaps?

I do plan on taking some healing spells, but I am the buffer (and seducer), not the main healer.

OTOH, my UMD skill will be maxed out. ~looks around for wands of healing and harming.

How about a Halfling (maybe Gnome), Thief [Poisoner] who was put into jail for crimes (?) and in the depths of the prison found a divine connection becoming a Druid [Urban] who takes the Repose domain? He'd be vermin loving little madman who has all but been forgotten by his jailers and is quite at home in the underbelly of the prison. Yet he possess the knowledge or the access to tunnels that could help in the escape so the others need him...

EDIT: I am more behind this concept than any of the others I have come up with. This will give us some healing, and allow Mark to keep his Rakshasa idea too.


Gnome Wizard (Familiar Adept) 3

Heh - Rakshasa idea is already tossed out the window and the Mad Alchemist is the new hotness.

This is Mark's character profile for the game. LOTS of stuff still yet to be updated.

For Mythril

Spoiler:
with the way the prison security is wired (you guys start out petrified), my suggestion is that your PC found religion before he landed in jail.

Recent Prison Transfer, for crimes in the first jail? Just adds to the list of misdeeds for me...


Male Pale Master

Looking like a motley crew so far. Cant wait to see us unleashed.

hoping to finish up my character this evening.


Female Half Orc Sorcerer 7

Ah ok, well then my sorcerer character has too few hp. I shall make the amendments

Btw, this is Jestem. I will be using the name Safrac in this campaign


Dotting to read along. Have fun guys!


Introducing the Mad Halfling poisoner/druid.

Still working out the details and the full story. I might drop the Urban Druid idea. I'm not sure what it gives you balances what you lose. At least in this campaign setting.

Have you considered Blight Druid? Kind of a funky match up with Poisoner.

OOOH, Yes. That fits the concept I have working up in my mind. Especially, like how it has an affinity for the Vermin. I think I'll go with the Death Domain.

Or perhaps the Decay sub domain...

Radavel: According to the PDR the Decay sub domain is for the Plant domain. Plant doesn't fit my character at all, would you consider allowing Decay to be a sub domain of Death? Murder and Undead are not at all a fit for the concept I have either. I am going for the madman who wants to see everything ravaged by death and decay.

Stiehl9s checking in with Syndir. Still need to flesh out my background...

I'll allow it. Though be warned that a different gawd may be answering your prayers, hence, the Decay sub domain hehehe

Perfect, I like the idea of him being mad from his "off" personality and the isolation of being in prison. While some ancient being or god may being working through him, he is just doing what his little friends the bugs want him to do.
