I’m going to start a new pbp, starting in a small fishing village somewhere between Kridorn and Mirnbay in Iobaria, with hints of mystery and horror. Recently the fishing village has been hit by a plague not uncommon in Iobaria, yet something else seems to be working behind the scenes as villagers are starting to disappear in alarming numbers.

Looking for 4+ players. Level 6 gestalt, any of the core races, 15pt build 8,000gp, 2 traits, max hit points per hit die, classes must be picked as follows, pic 2 of the tables and roll 6 times in each table, those are your class levels for both sides of the gestalt

Full bab class table: d6
1) Barbarian
2) Fighter
3) Paladin
4) Ranger
5) Cavalier
6) Gunslinger

Medium bab class table: d10
1) Bard
2) Cleric
3) Druid
4) Monk
5) Rogue
6) Alchemist
7) Inquisitor
8) Oracle
9) Summoner
10) Magus

Low bab class table: d3
1) Sorcerer
2) Wizard
3) Witch

Not an app, just seeking clarification... Say you wanted a Full BAB and 1/2 BAB gestalt

6d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4, 6, 4, 2) = 26 and 6d3 ⇒ (1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 3) = 10

Would that make a Fighter 1, Ranger 2, Cavalier 2, Gunslinger 1 / Sorcerer 4, Witch 2 Gestalt character?

Just seems a little.... odd...

Dark Archive

yes thats how it would work


What about for people who roll a 1 and a 3 in the full BAB table (getting Barbarian and Paladin) - do they have to make a choice of which class abilities they lose?

Dark Archive

incompatible rolls you get to re-roll so you'd pic either the barbarian level or the paladin level to re-roll


Hmm I may want to play in this but wow this way of getting levels seems contrived. I will see what this gives me to make.

full bab
6d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 4, 2, 6, 3) = 24

medium bab
6d10 ⇒ (9, 3, 2, 1, 5, 9) = 29

Are archetypes allowed?

Dark Archive

all of them from APG and UM

I am intrigued too. Let's see what this gets me.

full bab
6d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 5, 6, 6, 3) = 28

medium bab
6d10 ⇒ (5, 8, 10, 10, 7, 9) = 49

OK So I am a Gunslinger3/Fighter1/Paladin1/Cavalier1...not too bad, basically 'Have gun will Travel' with good saves and a horse.

with Magus 2/Rogue1/Inquisitor1/Oracle1/Summoner1...some arcane tricks with oracle of battle and a summoned scout. This is a viable character...I like....what his background is..? That is a different story. Ha!

Sounds like an interesting game...

6d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 4, 6, 6, 1) = 28
6d3 ⇒ (1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3) = 12
Gunslinger 3 Cavalier 1 Ranger 1 Barbarian 1
Sorcerer 2 Wizard 2 Witch 2

The Exchange

Okay, color me curious.
Full BAB; Low BAB
6d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4, 5, 6, 1) = 26; 6d3 ⇒ (2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3) = 15
SO...
Barbarian 1, Cavalier 3, Gunslinger 1, Ranger 1/Witch 3, Wizard 3
I definitely have some ideas for this one. Should be interesting. Thanks for offering this up.

Can you give us the basics of Gestalt characters? I'm a bit rusty on them. Haven't played one for 10 years. If I remember right, you get all the benefits from both classes as you level. Got a link to the rules you will be using?

Dark Archive

sure

The Exchange

Thanks! This looks like a lot of fun. Here's to hoping.

Dark Archive

indeed


SO, I am interested too.

Full and medium BAB GO!

6d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 2, 6, 3, 5) = 21
6d10 ⇒ (8, 8, 2, 2, 3, 8) = 31

By GM edict, re-rolling one level in Pally:

1d6 ⇒ 1

My levels are:
Hihg: Barbarian 2, Fighter 1, Ranger 1, Cavalier 1, Gunslinger 1
Med: Oracle 3, Cleric 2, Druid 1

I am the healer. There should be no argument about this.

Commence with the injury!


need to reroll the level in pally since it would have to be non lawful and durid and barbarian

level 1 barbarain/summoner
level 2 cavalier/druid
level 3 ranger/cleric
level 4 fighter/bard
level 5 gunslinger/rouge
level 6 paladin* /summoner

rerolling becuase of alignment restrictions
1d6 ⇒ 5

level 6 is now cavalier/ summoner


Oh, will this campaign need much squeezing down medium-sized coridors (IE, can I have an awesome horse with 1 level Cavalier, 1 level Druid and 3 levels of an oracle power?) and how outdoorsy will this campaign be?

Also what armor options are available for Druids?

Sign me up!

full bab 6d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 4, 3, 2, 6) = 20

medium bab 6d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 5, 4, 1, 1) = 17

Dark Archive

acecipher, a large number of the campaign will be set outside, also most of the druid armour options are available (can't think of any core one that isn't)

what are we doing regarding favored class bonuses?

And is it ok if I choose a firearm as my Wizard arcane bond item?

Dark Archive

you get one favored class for the bonus as usual, and it is ok to choose a firearm as your wizard arcane bond item


AM curious also... am planning on running an Iobarian pbp for later this year [those that I've played with have an incling for what I've planned ;0] so regardless of if I end up playing I'll be keeping an eye on the game :)

Character generation does seem a bit bizarre tho...

Full BAB: 6d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 2, 3, 6, 2) = 21

1/2 BAB: 6d10 ⇒ (2, 10, 6, 10, 3, 1) = 32

Fighter 3, Paladin 1, Gunslinger 2/Bard 1, Cleric 1, Druid 1, Alchemist 1, Magus 2

Reroll of paladin level: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Fighter 4, Gunslinger 2/Bard 1, Cleric 1, Druid 1, Alchemist 1, Magus 2

Pretty interesting mix...

Dark Archive

So, is this full or is there room for one more?

Full BAB 6d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 4, 1, 2, 4) = 20

Medium BAB 6d10 ⇒ (3, 8, 9, 1, 4, 3) = 28

The Exchange

What is the limit on mounts/companions? Is it possible to get a Dire boar or something similar for a dwarf cavalier? Just not liking the horse or camel option for a dwarf.

Dark Archive

Hmmm...

Cavalier 1, Ranger 3, Barbarian 1, Fighter 1/Druid 2, Oracle 1, Summoner 1, Bard 1, Monk 1

Dark Archive

yea there is room for one more nightflier

and yea you can use a boar with the large template (dire boar is a little powerful) for a mount

Thanks. If you hadn't guessed, I'm looking at a dwarf for race. Probably Lawful Good.

15pt stat buy is making choices difficult though. :) So many stats that need to be at least decent, but so few points. :( Choices, choices, choices.

Dark Archive

i give and take away :P


Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber

It looks like it will be a very interesting game. But I am afraid I can't commit to running such a character. I don't think I can get up to speed on a gunslinger/magus/ and summoner all at once. I post a lot at work, and could not keep all this easily managable.

Sorry. Seems like this will be fun but I will have to just watch the adventure this time.

Screwed up my other class post it actually is as I checked.

level 1 ranger/summoner
level 2 cavailer/druid
level 3 ranger /cleric
level 4 fighter/bard
level 5 gunslinger/rouge
level 6 cavalier/summoner

Dark Archive

sorry to see you go Meowzebub


I'm going the same way as Meowzebub too man - sorry. My RL commitments are pretty stacked and it'll take me way too much time to conjure up the where's and why's of my PC. Looks a very interesting game though, so I'll be following how it goes.

Good luck all - enjoy Iobaria ;)

Dark Archive

oh well, sorry to see you go


For a build I am thinking of going mounted with having the horselord archtype for ranger and mounted fury for fighter and am taking the mounted combat syle. How will mounted combat (the feat) work in a play by post without slowing everything down though waiting for my roll is one thing I worry about and I can get to do that twice with trick riding. I am getting trick as my combat style feat for ranger.
Also am planning on getting spirited charge.
Also do our pets get max hit points per hd?

I may be getting these for stats and am thinking about human or half elf for race. Am thinking maybe nethys for a god to know the expirence of all different kinds of workers and to protect and destroy. With protection and destruction domains. This character is also taking a while to make.

Dark Archive

well you'd get 2-4 days to post your respons otherwise i'll roll for you, so yea it might slow things down but its not going to be a problem

pets do get max hit points per hd


Just looking at options, if I decide to submit a sheet...

6d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 6, 6, 1) = 19 Barbarian two, gunslinger two, fighter one, ranger one

Reroll of Pally level 1d6 ⇒ 3
Second reroll of Pally level 1d6 ⇒ 4

6d3 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3) = 14 Witch three, wizard two, sorcerer one

The Exchange

Can I use my boar as my familiar? Assume pig. Or will I have an additional animal? I was thinking it would be easier to handle the fewer creatures involved.

Sovereign Court

I'll submit an app. This looks far too interesting to pass up!

I'll pick.. Full BAB and... Medium (since I have a soft spot for clerics.

Go! Dice rolls!

6d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 1, 4, 3, 1) = 19 Cavalier2/Ranger2/Paladin1/Fighter1.

6d10 ⇒ (7, 4, 9, 5, 1, 10) = 36 Ugh. bard1/Monk1/Rogue1/Inquisitor1/Summoner1/Magus1.

That's such a mixup I don't know where to begin... but I have a good thought!

Rerolling Barbarian dice, since I have a paladin level.

2d6 ⇒ (4, 2) = 6

Scarab Sages

looks interesting
1st monk/witch
2nd bard/witch
3rd Inquisitor/Wizard
4th monk/Sorcerer
5th Bard/Wizard
6th Summoner/Wizard

saw a couple of dropouts so i am hoping there is room for another player. Can we take any archetype om these classes?

Dark Archive

1) yea your boar can be a familiar
2) yes all archetypes are available

Dark Archive

just waiting for character sheets....

Sovereign Court

After working on it for a very long time, and seeing we only have a 15pt buy, I'm afraid I can't commit to the character - I'm so MAD it's ridiculous.

Sorry to go - but I'll be sure to watch!

Scarab Sages

This is an interesting exercise. its making me think about ways different archetypes can work together that i did not see before. I have my character started under the profile "kazillan". I still need to buy equipment , pick languages and figure things based on the equipment but the rest is done. Should finish up tomorrow.

Dark Archive

cool


Not sure if there is currently a spot open or not.

Just in case, I will put in the start-up rolls and if not, nothing lost.

10d10 ⇒ (6, 8, 8, 3, 8, 9, 1, 5, 3, 6) = 57 note: Though not sure of conflicts within this set, there may be conflicts with the other set...

work in progress


If some of the 8000 gp is used to purchase an item with charges, does it come fully charged?


Here is Shieldknight's character. I have yet to do my spells, purchase items, and finish out my AC/Familiar. I should have it done by the end of the day.
Let me know if I'm missing anything else, or have screwed up on the Gestalt build, or if I have something I shouldn't have.


question for ulgulanoth:

from orcs of golarion:

"most non-orc theologians believe that these orc gods are not actual deities but rather concepts that are fulfilled by various gods. some scholars go so far as to say the same god worshipped by different tribes may in fact be completely different gods responding to the orcs' prayers...The gods of the orc cults are chaotic evil..."

By, this different tribes and such may have different gods fulfilling their aspects as the fire god or the destroyer, etc., but it also says they are chaotic evil. I could just have my character interpret Sarenrae is being an apect of the fire god and that would work fine but I was hoping to take the feat from Orcs of Golarion (p.25) "Blessing of the Fire God" and it requires one to worship the fire god. So, if Sarenrae could be considered the fire god for my character's purposes, then he could take the feat.

Blessing of the Fire God
The Fire God rewards you for killing enemies with flame
prereqs: half-orc or orc, must worship the Fire God
Benefit: When in combat, if you deal fire damage to an enemy, you heal 1 hit point. you can only benefit from this healing once per round. Attacks that cause a target to catch on fire heal you each round the target takes fire damage.

Dark Archive

the thing from beyond the edge: yes to all your questions


This is doctor wu's character and I have started on making it.
