Grand Convocation Character Choice


PaizoCon General Discussion


I'm trying to decide on a PC for the Grand Convocation. A 14th level skill deprived heal-bot cleric (who's fun to RP, but has spent 14 skill points..) or my 7th level skill heavy archaeologist who's fun to RP and has the skills to back it up, but, uh, runs from most combats.

I haven't done one of these things before. Any thoughts?

I'm in the same boat. On one hand, I'd like to play my 9th level Rogue, since I'm trying to get him retired in time for Labor Day weekend, and could use the extra XP from the Convocation.

On the other hand, I have a fresh level 1 Tengu Inquisitor with some fun RP capabilities that I'd like to score some fun boons for and use them over his career.

Decisions!

I played in the first (and, to my knowledge, only) Grand Convocation a few years ago. I played my halfling wizard and had a great time. It really seemed like the GC had something for everyone. That said, I'm still torn as to which of my characters to play.


Play the one you want to role-play the most. If really tied, play the friendlier one. If still tied, play the higher level one.

I agree with exile, the last one had stuff for everyone. I'm sure this one will as well.

Also, I don't know about this one, but the last one did not have XP I don't think.

Correct, no XP for the first GC.


I guess that's a good question for Mike/Mark. Does the GC provide XP?

It does ... they've said that there will be a chronicle for 1XP, I believe.
Let's see ... <searches> ... Ah. Yes. Mike said it HERE. Gotta love a season finale. ;-)

Good to know, and a change for the better in my opinion.

Not a season finale. A finale for the Grand Convocation that has direct results on a season 4 scenario. The season finale is 3-26.

And, yes, the Grand Convocation finale will offer 1 xp.


I've been having a similar dilemma Kyle. Do I play my post 12 character for a chance to play them? (Also a low skill cleric) or do I play a low level character to give me lots of time to show off whatever shinnies are available or do I play my most flavorful character Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom, even though he's level 10.

Your lies bring dishonor to this entire thread.

Do not be fooled by that pretender Throne, he has nothing on me. I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom

Oh you Wizards. Your petty tricks are amusing at best, annoying at worst. Go entertain some children at a birthday party.

Wizard... WIZARD!?!

How dare you.

I assure you that not even that pretender Throne is a wizard.

I feel sullied just having my name used near that word, let alone be called one.

Sovereign Court

What would you prefer? Charlatan? Mountebank? Swindler? Town fool?


Farak is actually an Adept.

Adept at what exactly?

Oh, go hide under a rock before I throttle you! (Intimidation roll of 58)

Them wizards are always so uppidy!
