Interest check: Marvel superheroes gestalt


Recruitment

151 to 169 of 169 << first < prev | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | next > last >>

Rockslide = Awakened Stone Golem

Work on modifying this creature, you'll fit the character's soul more. Also note, that you'll want some way to keep Rockslide from dying when he reaches "Dead" as the character is technically an immortal stone/lava Golem after he got atomized.


You could also go with the Oread, that sort of fits as a base.


Another thought is the special dwarven Paladin.

Well Ghost Rejuvenation works for the immortal part. And yes I thought ghost (spirit) summoning a body made of rock is pretty much Rockslide. One of the cool aspects of his character is that he can build his body out of nearby material. So in limbo he built it out of rock from Limbo and became magic resistant.


Did we scare the GM off?


This is only an interest check. The GM specifically said he was going to be busy this week, and would be creating a real recruitment either this weekend or next. Possibly we may have been posting a bit too much, and the flood of builds from people who seem to think that this is the actual recruitment has also added to the large volume of posts he'll have to sift through when he gets back.


Yay! Not listening to instructions!

Also, I'm way to addicted to pathfinder. I said I was withdrawing, but I'm nearly finished with an awesome character, and will likely present 2 or more in the actual recruitment thread, should there be such a thing.


Phoenix, I hear ya! I think this is a particularly fun character creation challenge.


OK! Checking In for this.

I apologize, I just couldn't keep away from the opportunity to make my all-time favorite female superhero!


Well, in that case maybe Emma Frost. I was thinking of using Aegis for her diamond from.

Oops! Yeah, that makes sense. And I never would have thought of making him a Paladin, but that's a great way to capture the innate "annoyingness" that is Scott Summers.

Yeah, that's what I thought too lol

Any word from RR? Lots of interest it seems at this point.


Scott Summers? Definitely a paladin. Maybe the holy gun archetype whose had his gun converted to a visor?

Or had his eyes cursed to permanently cast Scorching Ray when they aren't covered by a blood crystal visor. Lol!

What set was the ocular spell meta magic feat from? PF or 3.5?


Well, definitely Lawful Good. I don't *object* to Paladin (and could see him with a Paladin Code) but I don't think the mechanics fit him especially week. Things like Lay on Hands and the ability to do extra damage to evil creatures (vs blasting through walls, say) aren't really a fit.

I could see Kineticist (Occult class) with something that allows sharing Teamwork feats, e.g. Cavalier or Warlord.


I always thought Scott was more Lawful Neutral.

He's only Good in sort of a tangential sense but he sure is an anal retentive prick.


By the way, I think the Rogue Genius Games Archetype Packages might be a useful tool for building these supers. For folks who aren't familiar, they add a bit more modularity to classes, e.g. if someone wanted the Cavalier's Order and Teamwork sharing abilities for a Cap'n Andoran but didn't want the Mount, you can trade that for their Physical Exemplar package that'll give better stats and saves.

I suspect RR may still be recovering from finals, but when he returns it'd be handy to know if these archetypes are allowed.


Sure, he doesn't have all the abilities of a Paladin, but that's just because in Age of Apocalypse, his alter Ego is the Commander of Sinister's Elite Death Police, and clearly his Deity feels that even if he's a boy-scout in every other world, that doesn't make up for his irredeemably evil version in one universe!


Longshot would be a bard (archaeologist)/swashbuckler. Archaeologist's luck, charmed life, panache, he'll have lots of luck abilities. The bard list has spells that are luck based.
gallant inspiration
heroism
pugwampi's grace
liberating command
lucky number
timely inspiration
windy escape


What's going on?


I don't think this is happening. :(

While if this goes off, I still want to play Nightcrawler, but here's how I'd do Longshot:

He gets about thirty uses of various luck-based abilities a day, I think that'll work out just fine.
