Hi guys. We're about to reboot a RotRL campaign that has lain dormant for about a year or so, as we've been playing Skull&Shackles or a homebrew scifi GURPS campaign in that time. Unfortunately, the GM for S&S is out of town for the next 6 months so we have to play something else until he comes back.
We're currently level 8, 15 point buy, minimum 4+int skill points and story-wise we're restarting after taking the fortress of the Black Arrow.
So, without much further ado, I present my character, Beata;
Beata, CN female half-orc sorceress
STR: 10
DEX: 14
CON: 14
INT: 10
WIS: 10
CHA: 22
Init: +6 AC: 15 + spell buffs BAB: +4 CMB: +4 CMD: 16
Fort: +9 Ref: +7 Will: +9
Skills:
Appraise +6, Bluff +11, Fly +11, Intimidate +18 (+21 vs non-human humanoids), Arcana +11, Perception +5, Spellcraft +11, UMD +15
Languages: Common, Orc, Draconic, Goblin
Feats: Eschew Materials, Toughness, Combat Casting, Impr. Init., Great Fortitude, Spell Penetration, Prone Slinging (very much a bonus feat from the GM due to the ridiculous nature of the feat... It has become an internal joke kind of thing in our group)
Alternate Racial Trait: Sacred Tattoo
Traits: Focused Mind, Masterful Demeanor
Draconic Bloodline: Blue
Gear: Ring of Sustenance, Ring of Protection +1, Amulet of Natural Armour +1, Cloak of Resistance +2, Headband of Charisma +4 (all stat bonuses included in stat array)
Spell list:
Cantrips: Acid Splash, Dancing Lights, Detect Magic, Ghost Sound, Light, Mage Hand, Message, Read Magic
1st: Burning Hands, Feather Fall, Grease, Mage Armour (bloodline), Magic Missile, Shield
2nd: Hideous Laughter, Knock, Mirror Image, Resist Energy (bloodline)
3rd: Dispel Magic, Fly (bloodline), Lightning Bolt
4th: Improved Invisibility
Now, this is where it gets interesting. For the reboot, the GM has decided to introduce the automatic bonus progression. The way he wants to handle this is that we get to keep the stat bonuses from the gear we already have but future wealth gain will be halved in exchange for the automatic bonuses. The purpose behind this change is to promote greater diversity and utility of magic items in general and wondrous items in particular.
My question, then, is this: where should I take my build from here, and which wondrous items should I look into acquiring? And please, no RotRL spoilers :)
Ring of Freedom of Movement is nice. There is also shirt that grants freedom of movement 1/day. It is a lot cheaper than the ring, but I can't remember the name of it.
A Goz Mask is not a bad thing to have. Trust me on this.
Featherstep Slippers.
One of the characters (not me, unfortunately) in our Skull&Shackles campaign is wearing a Goz Mask and it has been very helpful for him as our GM in that AP really likes his fog effects.
40k for a Freedom of Movement Ring is a long way off with the halved wealth level from the automatic bonus progression.
