Hello everyone.

Just to reitterate what was specified in the recruitment thread here is how characters are going to be genterated:

Level 1
Any and all Paizo material is acceptable(including ultimate magic and races from the bestiaries)
roll 2d6+6 for stats
Max hp at first level(I know this is standard but thought I would mention it)
Average starting gold for classes
2 traits can be used(thanks Fisnis for reminding me)

If you have any questions let me know and please post your characters here(as alieses) so I can review them before we start.


Ringtail here. Haven't updated my stats to reflect rolls yet, but they will be in the same order from highest to lowest. Oh and which set did you want me to use?


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Background:

Fisnis was born from the dalliance of a high noble girl and an adventuring elf. Once her family found out about this they thought of a way to get rid of the baby. They decided to give the baby to the church of Gorum to take care of as if he was an orphan. After many years of thinking he was an orphan is birth mother came to visit him in secret to tell him he was the son of a noble family. This shattered Fisnis's foundation for life. This made him a very cold person after learning his life was a lie. After this Fisnis decided to root out dishonesty where ever he could. He decided to be an Inquisitor. Fisnis hates liars and dishonest people. He is very cold to others because he does not want to let anyone close so they can change his life again as his mother had done years before.

Rolls are in other thread which set do you want me to use? Also traits can we use them or no?

That is up to you I'm open to any stats.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Okay done with my Inquisitor of Gorum. Sticking with Gorum being a melee god of war that is what Fisnis is but that is not all he is he as has spells can heal decently and also has a knowledge I did that because I figured that his god would not like magical base beings so his inquisitors would know more about them so as to kill them faster. I am open to question on my concept and ideas on it.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Sorry I messed up the last posted was late. Since Gorum is a god of war; I went with the idea that his Inquisitors can fight well. So following the path of their god are very good melee fighters that can go into the thick of things. I went with the domain of destruction to help him along with this line of thought. While being a Inquisitor of Gorum he is not just a melee fighter he can heal and help the party with his spells and some of his skill checks.

Can everyone check over the character sheet to make sure everything is done correctly? Do not want to have missed anything small. I am also up for small changes to the character to fit the character when we get more players to fit the party better.


Feel free to look at Lokti's profile to see stats and such. Also, please do correct me if I've made any errors.

It was very difficult to figure out what to buy, given the monks low starting gold (35 gold average). I ended up just picking up a shortbow with some arrows, pretty much. Eventually I'll be upgrading to a composite longbow. I also want to buy a net, since Grippli are inherently proficient with it and I think that it would make for some interesting opportunities.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Frogman seems cool. Question the +4 on your shortbow is from point-blank shot?


Just letting everyone know I'm still here. Was late last night when I found the thread so just now getting to work on the character.

Here's stats (I hope):

2d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 2) + 6 = 12
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 2) + 6 = 10
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 4) + 6 = 15
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 6) + 6 = 14
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (6, 5) + 6 = 17
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 5) + 6 = 14

I'll get to work on the character and try to have it up this evening.


Fisnis you check out. Thank you for listing your traits I was wondering where the heck you got the +2 to your init...


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

lol I was going to call it Elven Reflexes that might of helped you more. How is my idea though? For note this is my first try at a holy caster like this.


@Lokti: Accroding to the core rule book you can not flurry with your bow, just an fyi. Other than that your character looks good though the trusting part I feel will get annyoing but I'm not a player so play it up :P.

@Torchbearer: No hurry we probably won't be starting until tomorrow at the absolute earliest and I honestly wouldn't mind pushing it back until sunday since I have a pretty busy weekend(Yay for RotRL)

@Fisnis: I like your idea and I'm sure you will get the hang of it once we get a started.

Based on how well we play together and how much time I have and general interest I might continue this game onto the other modules set in Falcons Hollow...its sort of a mini story arch that's set there.

If anyone wants to be based in the town its self(be a resident) let me know because there are some things that I need to discuss with you in private(I'm looking towards the two who made their characters brothers). We'll have to communicate via email before the game gets started.

Oh and since I brought it up whats everyone's availability for starting this? Would people mind waiting until Sunday or Monday or do you want to start sooner? The only issue on my end is I have to reread the module since its been over a year since I ran this and I'm also taking 2 classes right now for my masters so I have homework and midterms coming up and then I have a Raise of the runelords game on Saturday...don't worry I am not usually as busy as this paragraph makes it sound I swear...lol.

As far as posting goes I'd like it if everyone could post at least 5 times a week because I know weekends get a little crazy. I am currently not working so I can and will post multiple times a day.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Cool. Well I would like to talk with everyone else on their characters to get an idea on other PbP did not really get to first one with Ringtail worked out well other one we got really melee heavy. So Saturday or Sunday seems fine with me since you are busy Saturday that mean Sunday.


oh for those of you who might be international its Thursday where I am...sorry forgot we might be dealing with people who are on the other side of the world where its Friday.


Fisnis: The additional +1 modifier comes from the size modifier for being small.

Mathpro: The Zen Archer archetype from the APG allows flurry of blows with the bow. However, I won't be able to flurry with unarmed strikes and I cannot add the strength modifier unless I have a composite bow.

As for availability, I'm ready whenever. Starting after the weekend sounds good if you need the time to refresh your memory on the module.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Oh I thought that was just for AC not attack.

Sovereign Court

Cool, I can meet those posting requierments easily and waiting til sunday is fine with me, take your time and start when your ready.
Should have a character up sometime today. Hes a Taldane Rogue(swashbuckler) just to give the group a heads up. Looking forward to playing with you guys.

Of course the brothers are local hehe

Dm:
njbebiak@yahoo.com


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

So we have a Monk who is archer, a barb, a rouge now, me as a melee/light healer and what ever else the other two want to play seem like we need a pure caster like a wizard and a other light healer or pure healer up to other two what you guys think?


wow sorry Duke...should have looked that up..my bad.

Roidrage you will be getting an email from me shortly(finalfantasyfan12632@gmail.com).

So far in the party we have: Barbarian, Inquisitor, Zen Archer, Orical, Monk, and Rogue. Did I miss anything? This is actually looking like a pretty formidable party.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

we have two monks?


no just the friendly frogman. I actually didn't see your post before I made my list...lol.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Oh okay. So the other brother is an oracle? It is all good lol.


Yeah that's what he said last night. All characters that don't have concepts approved by me yet can at any time change their mind.

I know I said I'd be around but I think I'm going to go take a nap...I'll check in in a few hours. Everything seems to be in order. Fisnis hold down the fort while I'm gone okay?


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Alright have a nice nap.

Scarab Sages

I'll be able to sneak a couple posts a day in all likelihood, though likewise my weekend is a little messed up (singing a gig and some other stuff on Saturday, need to write a crash reporter in C for a class by Sunday night).


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Boss man took a nap left me to watch the fort. He said game will not start till start Sunday soonest. You going to play the Oracle? If you are what kind of Oracle?

Scarab Sages

Also just about done building the Oracle, Duraz "Razz" Derakht. Planning to go with the Dark Tapestry mystery (stuff from beyond) and the Stargazer Archetype (Ultimate Magic). Will probably mostly be a debuffer in combat. Because of his theme I'm inclined to choose the Inflict spells over the Cure line but if we need another healer of course I'll choose cure instead.

You'll be getting an e-mail from me soon. Roid, what is Razz's bro's name?


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Well torch has not gotten back to us on his character yet so might not need to change to healing. So a debuffing mage will you just be just debuffing or will you debuff and do damage or debuff and heal or debuff melee or some other combo? Cool I like mages that do that I do not have Ultimate Magic yet was hoping to get it sometime this week so no idea was Stargazer does.

Scarab Sages

It'll be debuffing, control, and a bit of ranged damage. May look into some buffs too cause I like making the party strong. I'll do him up with Inflict and if I need to change it's not a big deal. For example my initial loadout will be Murderous Command (command, but only to attack another enemy) and Protection from Evil, along with either Inflict or Cure Light Wounds. Later though I'll be getting Glitterdust as part of the Stargazer AT, for example.


I'm working on it now. I saw there wasn't a real arcane caster so I'm working on a half-orc wizard, though if we need more healing I'll be happy to go cleric or druid.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

So you going with the classic debuffing mage cool.

Scarab Sages

Okay in that case I'll go with the Cure line, but do note that I'd really prefer to spell my spell slots preventing damage, and I'll mainly use it to operate Wands, hopefully, down the line.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Missed the druid again. I have yet to be able to party with a druid every time someone says they can be one someone else says no I can be this other class lol. I guess the powers at be do not want me to party with one.

Scarab Sages

Yes, though Protection from Evil is too nifty to pass up and if we need it, we'll NEED it. Plus I think someone who has been tormented by beings from the Great Beyond his whole life ought to know how to cast out evil spirits by now. I think Doom will be next, but we'll see.

And Ultimate Magic is pretty nifty.


Fine by me. That's how we do it in my tabletop group most of the time too. I'll just try not to get hurt:)


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Torch what kind of arcane caster will you be? If you do not know yet that is cool just tell me if you do not know lol.

Scarab Sages

How does Fisnis know 7 0-level spells?


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Messed up. I wrote this all down in word than copied it here. I listed the spells I was thinking of taking and did not delete them. Thanks for the catch.

OK, I'll go more party buffs and control in that case. Still looking through UM stuff for wizards too.

Basic idea for the character is the village mage was captured by a tribe of orcs and I'm the result. Because of my mother's status in the village I accepted as a full member of the community. I have always thought of myself as human and because of the villagers very rarely consider my mixed heritage. My mother began teaching me magic at a young age, and I was a quick study.
Because of my upbringing I never experienced the racism common in most half-orc lives. I have no clue what the world is like outside of my small village and have decided I have learned all I can from my mother. Falcon's Hollow is the nearest town so that's where I'm heading in hopes of finding a wizard to continue my studies.

Looking at the map, the forest just north of Falcon's Hollow seems to be the best place to put my home. I'm having name block at the moment, but I'll have one soon.
For schedule, I'm pretty flexible for the summer. I'll probably be most active here during the afternoon and later at night.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Partway through building Razz. Check him out so far if you like.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Looks cool Razz so Razz you debuff/heal while torch buff/control? Trying to get idea of party in my head.

Sovereign Court

Will post soon, busy at the moment.

That sounds like how it should shape up. Early on it'll more of an action-denial sort of debuffing, since my main shtick is either making them attack each other or just confusing enemies with Gift of Madness. But I'll know the heal spells in case we need 'em.

Also, Roid, "door az derakht" means "far from the tree" in Persian - Derakht just means tree, but I figured when you pronounce it with a straight American English accent it sounds reasonably Taldan.


M Half-Orc Conjurer (teleportation focus subschool)-1

Meet Andern, the half-orc wizard. I'm still working on the mechanics, but the basic profile is up.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Looks cool like the background story.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Mechanics all done, need to get the appearance/backstory up.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Torch, would you mind if Andern and the Derakht brothers have been friends for a while? After all, they have lived together in a small town their entire lives.


hey guys sorry to disappear again. Everything looks to be in good shape. I'll look over the new characters now and let you guys know if I find anything.

Andern you can be from the forest to the north but know that part of the adventure takes place in that forest. Don't worry we'll try to keep clear of your home...don't want to scare a whole bunch of orcs.

I'm also good with what ever friendships/relationships you guys want to build with each other.

Oh and just because I'm awesome like that and I like having both genders represented I think I'll throw in a female druid npc for you guys to adventure with...took me about a minute to figure out how to finish that sentence with out it sounding dirty...


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Yes a druid keep wanting to party with one.
