Looking for Replacement RotRL Player


Recruitment


Our Rise of the Runelords PbP game just lost our healer, so I thought that I would put out word for a replacement. We are in the middle of the first part of Burnt Offerings, so everyone is still first level. The town has just been attacked by goblins, and the players are currently fighting them off. You can check out the gameplay thread here.

The party right now consists of an elf wizard, a human ranger, and a half-elf alchemist.

Character Creation:

-1st Level

-20 Point Buy

-Average Starting Gold

-Max HP

-Races: Human (Please specify your ethnicity e.g Varisian, Shoanti, Chelaxian... This may grant you an additional starting language, as described in the the Inner Sea World Guide), Half-Elf, Half-Orc, Dwarf, Elf, Halfling, and Gnome.

-Classes: All core and base classes, except for Summoner, Gunslinger, Ninja, and Samurai

-2 Traits. One campaign trait from the Player's Guide or pages 330-331 of the APG, and one other trait. The only trait I can think of that is outright not allowed would be Rich Parents.

OOOOH YEA! Walter Lindie dropped me the heads up on this, and I would love to join up :)

I am thinking Dwarven Cleric? Probably of Torag :D

If you'll have me I'll check it out and be able to get a fleshed out character up here before 5


This character lost his RotRL game in the second room of the second setting.

I'll rebuild him with Healing Hex and 20-pt build (he was 12-pt) if he's otherwise acceptable.

Silver Crusade

I'd love to join up if the slot is still available


In a little bit I will select an application to fill the role of healer in our game. For those of you who don't get picked, I'm currently recruiting for a second RotRL game here.


the dwarf trudges down the dusty road, throat dry and aching for a drink...
He sees smoke coming from the direction of Sandpoint and smiles, They must be cookin summat good o'er there iffn they got the fires started now.

he whistles as he walks, sun shining on this great and holy day

EditOK, all done and ready for reveiw DM :)

--------------------
The look of love is easy to see in the young. She will look at him with a sparkle in her eyes and a quiver of anticipation on her lips. The anticipation of what could happen in his arms. He looks at her with an intensity that leaves room for nothing else. The kind of intensity where a war could break out around him and he wouldn't notice it at all. All he could see or want to see is her.

This was how Rachael looked at Xavier and how Xavier looked at her. Rachael was of old blood in Magnimar, nobility ran through her veins. Her father sat on the Council of Ushers and was a good man who used his position to try to do good for the people. Xavier was from new money. His father was a trader of goods and antiquities. His father is rumored to have made his fortune as an adventurer delving into dungeons and completing deeds for coin. These rumors were never denied nor authenticated by his father.

Even at fourteen each was excited about how their lives would unfold together. Xavier had already proposed to Rachael and she had accepted. Both parents were okay as long as it was a long engagement of at least three years. Xavier had planned to work with his father in the business of antiquities buying and selling. They would have a family and live a life of splendor and joy. Or so that was their plan. One night after spending the evening at parties and having their fill of wine in the Vista they took a moonlight stroll in the gardens. They looked into each others eyes and as Xavier bent down to kiss her he was thrown to the ground. He hit the ground and rolled over and looked up to see several skeletal figures clawing at Rachael. Xavier stood up and rushed at the figures trying to get them away from his love, but he was not skilled at the art of fighting and the skeletons simply knocked him away. As Xavier laid on the ground bleeding and about to pass out he saw the skeletal figures take Rachael away her body was limp in their grasp and blood streamed from her face.

When Xavier woke he was in the temple of Iomedae being overseen by the priests and clerics. Xavier was always a devout follower of Iomedae as was his father. Xavier was asked many questions about that night and had no other answers than what he saw. He knew of no reason for her being taken and in all likelihood being killed. He spent the next two months searching for clues as to who and why this had happened. He became obsessed to find out what had happened but came no closer to the truth than the night it happened. Of course there were rumors of a Necromancer but nothing that could be proven.

Xavier turned to his faith for comfort and understanding while never giving up the hope of finding truth. He in fact enrolled as a student of the order. He studied the art of the longsword, the undead, and healing. He became very accomplished with the sword and knowledge in religion but the healing arts escaped his abiltiy. In fact in that first year he never felt even a glimmer of power from Iomedae.
One day as he was getting the temple ready for services a father brought his young daughter to the temple as she had fallen and injured herself. The father asked that Xavier do something to help his dying daughter, but Xavier kept telling him he did not have the healing power. Xavier yelled for one of the clerics to help but none seemed to hear his plea. The father kept insisting that Xavier do something and in frustration Xavier yelled that he could do nothing. But at that very moment Xavier's body glowed with brightness and a beam of light shot out from his holy symbol into the girl healing her. Iomedae had finally blessed him and he could feel the power coursing through him.

For the next year he studied even harder and grew in his power and understanding. He moved up in the church and became a full cleric of Iomedae. In the spring of the third year after the disappearance of Rachael, Xavier received a letter at the temple from no one. The letter stated that if he wanted to know about his lost love he should travel to the town of Sandpoint and speak with Father Tobyn. It stated no more, but after all this time his wounds were being ripped open again. Xavier spent several weeks searching his heart and soul and he enlisted the help of the other clerics to decide what to do. It was decided after much meditation that he would go and find where this clue led.

So at the age of ninteen Xavier traveled to Sandpoint to talk with Father Tobyn and find out what all this meant.

Thank you for your consideration if you have not already selected the replacement.

We have lots of strong contenders, :)

What's peoples personalities?
Just curious...

Harsk is stern but friendly, not especially sociable with strangers.
he likes alcohol but isn't a drunkard
He is merciful but not foolish... he will capture and try to get them to repent but wont try twice....

Megekki is not the pidgin prootwaddle he pretends. He believes Sivanah prefers truths be hidden, and hidden truths revealed. He's also seen the value of seeming to be something he's not. So he does a very good sloppy swish.

But he's sane, and smart. And the interests of Sivanah make him take keen interest in the glassworks (and mirrorworks...), long enough to learn there are truths hidden there...


Ooh, nice twist... I'm thinking of king Boomie from avatar lol :)


Xavier has seen death of loved ones up close and enjoys life but tries to never get out of control. He also sees himself as a protector of those that can not protect themselves. His hatred of the undead borders on obsession and would tend to go after the undead even at his own peril.
