Question for ya:
Being an Alchemist I craft alchemical items frequently. Is the crafting of alchemical items the same as the crafting rule you placed of 2 items only?
If not what do you want me to do with crafting alchemical items?
You must be able to craft when taking 10 (heh), but otherwise n
As long as it's not a magic item (like a potion) then you can craft all you want.Just a mort, that's fine, I have a wizard that may try something similar
This is Vrog Skyreaver's Submission. He's basically an alt from a previous higher level game that I have dusted off and levelled up.
I'll get his backstory written up in the next day or two.
Thanks I'll get gear finished up and then I will get back story up in next da or two due to work I am somewhat limited on time this week.
Sir Cornelius Pimsberry-Level 18 Human Paladin
Not sure how much of a background you wanted since we'll only be going a short while and charging through a lot of bad guys. I have ideas of a personality but you probably don't want to wade through loads of background. Regardless I had fun making him.

Here is what I am working on. A character from an old Razor Coast game that is on an indefinite hiatus. Now I can hear you asking why a Water and Weather domain cleric is on land fighting a war against a lich and anti-paladin trying to make the world undead. The answer is threefold. First, I imagine the mist will wreck all kinds of havoc on weather and the ocean. Storms, black fog and ghost ships come to mind. That's her domain and she's there to protect it. Second, she's a NG cleric of Gozreh. Gozreh is a deity of nature and thus against anything unnatural. He/she is against anything that is destructive or disruptive to his/her domain. The third is weather spells are cool and might be extremely helpful in driving away the mist. Also, Tsunami still works on land and that is awesome.
But yeah still working on it. Backstory in the profile though.
I'm going to toss an 18th level monk into the mix :)

Is the world based on Golarian with Golarian deities? If not can you direct us to some general info on the world and deities?
It looks like there will be a lot of submissions so competition will be fierce. But challenges are part of what makes character creation fun. Sun (current alias) is a 1st level brawler (wild child) created for PFS with the intent of building toward the darechaser prestige class from Paths of the Righteous. I will create a character that will start with this character, with the higher point buy of course, and will make him 8th level brawler and 10th level darechaser. I will want an answer to the question above about the world culture before doing up a background story.
I won't have the submission ready until the weekend so if you plan to make your selection before then, let us know.
Hi Rorek - archetype questions from Monk to Unchained.
If I take Monk of the 4 Winds - Still Time would replace the 12th level ki power?
Also - Spirit Master (which seems very thematic for this campaign), what would the Unchained Monk give up for Spirit Combat and Purifying Palm?
Finally - is the campaign going to hit level 20? If not could I stack Monk of the 4 Winds and Spirit Master, since they don't clash until level 20? :)
Planning to go Aasimar so variant ability rolls here:
Dotting for interest. I have a few builds in mind that I've been itching to play.
I would like to know if I can make my Gnome a Bleachling?
Story-wise, it ties in with her current worship of Pharasma, and her alignment as neutral-good.
Even if I don't get the speak with animals ability, the calmer nature, as well as the connection with death, that a Bleachling has is relevant to her story and progression as a fighter against Undead.
Rosa has most of her back story in place now, its a bit long, But you did offer GM
Rosa has most of her back story in place now, its a bit long, But you did offer GM
a lot like Talon's story. it was long enough to get a whole thread devoted to his story. see the link in the alias.
it is still growing, just wondering where to take it from where It stopped.

When are you closing Recruitment? Just trying to figure out when i need to have rest finished up. Got a busy next 2-3 days.

Hmm. This is interesting to me. I really like playing the epic-power hero subtype of character, so I'll have to see what I can think of in terms of making a character that appears epic and is fun to play.
This screams Tortured Crusader to me, honestly... but I don't really want to play one.
This seems like a perfect opportunity to tool out Baalrak, the 'paladin' of Gorum who wouldn't have to fight everyone's battles for them if everyone would just stop being so weak.
The character would likely be a skald 15/chevalier 3, focusing on party support and melee bruiser-y-ness.
I'm gonna throw this guy in there instead: Durgan
@Rorek - any word on Spirit Master? I'd suggest losing the 4th and 14/16th level Ki powers for Spirit Combat and Purifying Palm, but if you prefer I can just go for a Monk of the 4 Winds instead? :)
Thinking about the character, I had a re-imagining.
While all Pharasmans fight the undead, there are special orders dedicated to seeking out the unbodied. Ghosts, shadows, specters, wraiths. These elite forces seek out the unquiet spirits and send their souls on.
Venn was found as a child, born to a necromantic cult. The cult was destroyed, but the child could not effectively fight. But the youth had a connection to the spirit realm and the ectoplasmic energy. A rare talent and one worth cultivating. Their inherent talents made them perfect weapons against the spirit threat. Because of his looks, it was months later that they found out he was plane-touched.
Venn trained to become a warrior, wielding ectoplasm and positive energy to kill the fiends. He fought hard for a dozen years, sending many dead to their judgement. At the end, their group was drawn into a vortex into a necromantic demiplane locked away ages ago. A strange geometric temple was filled with the dead and a primordial spirit of death. Perhaps a dead god. When they finally disrupted the plane and left, half of them were gone.
After such a career, he chose to stand down. He married a widow with children. There was no need to pass on tainted blood. He continued in Pharasma's service, preparing the dead for proper burial.
But with the new threat looming over over them, he could not stay alone. He once again donned the suit of grey silk emblazoned with a spirit trapped in the red spiral of Pharasma.

The snow had been falling for weeks, it was always like this in deep winter. The high tops would be cut of and no one would be coming down the pass until will into the spring. This is why it was surprising that screams came down the valley. Not that anyone but the wind was there to hear but the screams came, Some low, some long. They where coming from a light tower, a gray pillar of stone formed from the very rocks of the mountains surrounding the valley. No normal hand could have crafted this tower, such was its size. Magic had been at work here. And from this tower high up the screams came. Now at the foot of the tower a figure came into being. Tall very tall standing in black and sliver.Came into being as if the cold snow had formed it in a florry. The form tilled its head as screams came to from above. There was no door into the tower that it could see, so reaching behind it the large from pulled a ling thin evil looking blade from its back. It Held the blade a moment as if listening to it.
"Well if there is no door then we will make one"
She said to it, hefting the blade and slamming it in the wall of the tower. The hold tower shuck and the screaming stopped. The from cut again and a v shamed slab of tower wall fell away. She stepped throw the hole she had made into the tower, and seeing steps started up them. It was a long walk up and she found things on her way to slow her, but she and her blade deal with everyone until at last she was at the top and facing a door. She looked at it, smiling and then knocked. All manner of spells hit her, when she did. But as fire Ice acid all hit her, she with stood the pain and hurt. Until it ended, then with she shrug she healed herself.
"We can be at this all day if you like, but in the end I will still be here. It would be best if you just let me in, if not I will get angry and you don't want to get me angry Grand Wizard McHalock"
The door opened and she entered, she found herself in a mages lab, the mage one Grand Wizard McHalock was sitting behind a large desk, on each side of which stood a best of some kind, a creation of his no doubt. He smiled at her.
"I am honored, they sent the big bad hound herself, It is a pleased to meet you at long last Rosa"

Swapping out Selective Spell for Intensified Spell. Really want to emphasize burning it with fire on this guy, and spending 15,600 to add boots of speed to my jaunt boots.
Gonna try and get an aasimar channeling cleric together at a higher level. I've got my at a lower but going to raise him up and tweak him a bit.
Stat block for Sun Zhang Lao is in the profile. Soon I'll update the profile with the requested background, complete with stories of how a half-orc from one of the states of the Dragon Empire, with little else but his fists and a faithful gorilla companion, rose into the ranks of one of the few heroes who can stop the undead menace.
Sun is an 18th level Brawler with the Wild Child archetype.
How much longer do we have in hours for those in other timezones?
I know it's really soon, but don't know if its You should spend all night finishing this soon or You have time tomorrow to finish this soon
On Wednesday the GM said we would have another two weeks, so I think tomorrow is totally safe. :)
Phew, thanks.
I didn't know making a level 18 would be so time consuming.
Also, a question for anyone who knows about Oracles - it says that they get all cure or inflict spells when they can learn them.
Does this include Cure, mass spell? They do have it in their name, which seems to be the only requirement.
It does include mass cure spells, yes.
Phew, thanks.
I didn't know making a level 18 would be so time consuming.
Yeah, it's an absolute bear. Mainly due to the umpteen million options there are.
Rosa has Mass inflict as her options.
also you can have fun with
variant-channeling
Hey, speaking of options, are any of the other applicants interested in knowing my PC? I would love to be somebody's former nemesis, as Azorn was ambitious and ruthless as a youth in taking over his homelands.
Azorn may not he Rosa's nemesis, but they may have crossed paths. He would probably know of the hounds of the hells and what they do. He may even have called her.
The Ancient Albatross Inn was of the last watering holes available in the part of the world that still had not yet fallen to the hordes of undead. When the news reached those gathered their that a call had gone out for the greatest heroes to come to the aid of the world to try to turn back the threat, word came of the arrival of an unusual pair. "The man was odd enough--looked like a half-orc but prettier than most, with bushy sideburns, a widow's peak and long black hair, strong and agile looking. Looked like maybe he came from the Dragon Empires, you know with the eyes. He was armed only with a quarterstaff and a few exotic weapons. Figured he's just another merc. Then around the corner comes this big ape. No not another big fighter, an honest to god ape, like a gorilla, but like eight feet tall and his muscles make the first guy look puny. He's got armor on, like a chain shirt. He was heading for the palace."
Skyler whistled and said, "That's no mercenary, leastwhiles no ordinary one. That's Sun Zhang Lao and Wu Kong. He's surely applying for the job of saving the world. He never was much of a one to be self-sacrificing, but the one thing he can't resist is a challenge. Seeing has he's tackled most of the challenges mere mortals might be expected to achieve, it makes sense the ultimate challenge of saving the world would warrant a look-see."
"Never heard o' 'm," a man mumbled absently, more focused on his drink than news.
"Well, refresh your drinks and I'll solve that problem," Skyler said.
Then he heard about a call for the best warriors and athletes in the land to compete for a huge prize in gold from the king of the Castlainia, which was being held in its capital city. The city was built up around a small mountain, with rings of walls. The first competition was a race around the streets of the lowest level, which was many miles long. Sun and Wu Kong won that handily and the top one hundred advanced to the next ring where they faced another challenge, this time a swimming competition. The next level required the competitors to climb a cliff that took them to the next level.
Well on it went like that, but toward the top, the dwindling number of competitors now had to fight various wild beasts, to safely navigate a building full of traps, and finally at the top, the best 8 had to fight each other, using a variety of weapons. Now Sun was a different kind of warrior. He did not specialize in one weapon or one martial arts style. Instead, he picked up and used all kinds of tricks and weapons, and he was just as deadly with a chair or his fists as with a longsword or rapier. So eventually, he wins the grand prize.
He stood at the top of the mountain in the center of the king's palace on the top of a pyramid that had been on the mountain since before the city was established. He was awarded his pick of magic weapons and armors, choosing a body wrap that turned his fists into magic weapons and a mithral chain shirt, preferring light armors that allowed him freedom of movement. Given how his ape had helped him it was given a some magic that improved his defenses. Then he and Wu Kong stood atop the pyramid to the cheers of the people. And then the top of the pyramid vanished and they dropped from sight.
Now this king's dynasty had always had a strange curse that seemed to always led to the death of one of the kings oldest children. Well, turns out this was actually a tribute demanded by a strange race that lived inside the mountain, granting the king and his family good fortune so long as they sacrificed one of their first born to the people in the mountain every twenty-five years. The king had arranged it so at the appointed time of the sacrifice, it would be the greatest hero he could find instead of one of his children.
So Sun had to fight his way to the heart of this shadow race. To him, this was delightful, another challenge. Little is known about what he did in the underground, but a year later, he emerged with a chest full of gems and jewels looted from the dark ones, along with the news that the king would never have to pay tribute to the dark race again, for they were driven back into the underdark from whence they had come.
Thus Sun and Wu Kong found themselves working as slaves under the oppressive rule of a religious despot. He watched and bided his time, gathering a small group of like minded slaves who decided they would not only escape but bring down the despot. They escaped into a labyrinth under the city, discovered that many of the comforts the people of the city enjoyed were due not to the miraculous powers of the god-king but to the enslavement of dwarves and gnomes charged with maintaining their sewers and their water works.
Sun led his team of escapees into this area and liberated the slaves and with their help, they cut off the city's water supply and stopped up all their sewage tunnels. This forced the despot to send his troops underground, where the rebels had devised a host of traps, many involving raw sewage being dumped over the soldiers. He always gave the soldiers he captured the option of changing sides, something they almost always did once they realized the true source of the city's utilities.
Before long he had driven back the invaders and launched a counter-invasion that led to the downfall of the despot, exposing in the process how the despot had been faking most of the miracles that he performed. The people offered Sun the job of ruling, but he had not appetite for something so boring as being a bureaucrat, so he took a substantial reward and set off with some of his new partners in adventure.
So for a while, Sun and Wu Kong fought these beasts for the women they thought were enchanted with them, not realizing it was they who were being used. While in the jungle wilderness that the women rarely had to enter, the group was freed from the spells by band of elves who had ventured into the realm while exploring one of the other planes that had a portal to this island. The elves were able to dispel the fey magic and the two groups fought their way back to the ship and managed their escape.
Sun had fought some of the most ferocious beasts and the wiliest of humanoid opponents, had won all major sporting competitions to the point where he was not allowed to enter such events. Then, some of his comrades were murdered and he joined up with a famous supernatural investigator to seek out the murderers. It turned out to involve a caravan led by a human diviner using a set of fortune telling cards to discover ways to increase her personal power in hopes of becoming the leader of an undead revolution. She had minions almost as powerful as herself, a vampire, a ghoul, and a few foul assassins. The diviner was named Rosmundz and her group was called Rosmundz Hand.
The investigation involved following a bloody trail that led them into haunted castles, villages decimated by the group, and finally into a ruined temple to a dark old god. Sun and his group managed to get denizens of the temple, undead but definitely not loving it, to help them defeat Rosmundz Hand and by so doing, earn themselves release from undeath. This last adventure put Sun onto the threat that was brewing in the land a threat to use necromancy to destroy civilization and enslave the living. He was no paladin, but he hated the prospect of a world that would not have the comforts of civilization and new challenges for him to overcome. So I guess that is why he is here, eager to help save the world.
"When he was finished with Rosmundz Hand, he became intrigued with those with the powers of prophecy. At his birth a soothsayer predicted he would eventually become a rival to the gods. He had since heard rumors that there was a place where a mortal being such as himself could prove himself worthy of becoming a god. He sought out the most powerful card reader he could find and she told him he would have to wait to become a god and save the realm of mortals so the realm of gods could have the power to maintain life. This may be driving him to succeed even more than the raw necessity of saving the world. I guess we'll have to see if he gets picked for the mission. Seems a fool's errand to me, but I guess it's a good thing there are fools such as Sun Zhang Lao and Wu Kong to accept such errands. Let's drink to their success."
Azorn has no ranks in Know(planes) or Know(religion), does not care for the working of celestials, fiends and gods, and wouldn't want to rely on outside help for some kind of military victory. However, if he and Rosa were to come into contact, it would probably be by accident. Perhaps the same human or fire giant king who Azorn sought to conquer also owed some debt to Hell, and Rosa would benefit from Azorn's invasion in order to more easily reach such a target.
High on cold ice tower a the fat mage smiled at Roses.
Standing her 10'6 Rosa looked down at him and the things by his side.
"I care not if you think this is an honor. You have a debt and I need information. I want to know about him!"
She reached into one of the pouches on her silver and black belt and took out a small Silver wayfinder, placing it on the desk an image came into being just above it. It was that of a Anti-Paladin, the Runes of hells lord over her black armor.
"Well. well well. So I am not the target of you hunt, that is a relief."
She reached into his desk bringing out a bottle of fine red wine. Two goblets came next. One of the things by his side poured the wine, and slid it over to Rosa before once more going make to its still pose.
The fat mage picked up his wine and with a small move of his hand a seat came into being for Rosa to sit on. She looked at the seat and then sat. As she did the large black blade on her back, blinked from her back to her side and lay itself across her lap. She took the goblet and sipped the wine.
"Miral-lyth Red, I did not thing a single battle survived the battle of Cress-Lyth."
The mage seemed happy she know her wine and that she know how rear it was.
"Its the last bottle. I kept it for my death-day but seeing how your not here for me, I think we can share it."
He took a sip.
"He has a few names, I know him as Azrock the Dark-lord A name he used while rising in power a lot time ago. That was before he teamed up with and old student of mine, The Grand lich as it likes to call itself in our ranks. It was they that hacked this undead apolitical end to the world. But you know this already, Azrock has a packed with the Hell's. So your asking me where is he now. Which with you being here means..."
Rosa new the mage, known him longer the states on the world have existed. He was one of the oldest and cleverest Magic wavers in the ranks of mages. His passion was knowledge and just her being her and saying what she did would be payment. For he was more than intelligent to work out why she was really here. She know this and he know she know this, but they had to pay thire parts.
"He's broken his pact with the Hell's, what ever he and the The Grand lich are doing has NOT been sanctioned buy the Master of the Infernal. HAHA I wondered when he would, it was only a matter of time, I had seen it, worked out the probability and at last the day has come. Rosa I never thought I would ever say this to one of your kind and most of all not the lead hound her self. But I am please you came."
Grabbing he's gobbet he jumped up and walked across his study to a map of the worlds "Prime" He said walking to it and it shifted to show the prime world. There where 100s or markers and tabs on it, Runes shifting and changing. What ever they meant only the mage would now for it was no language Rosa had ever seen.
"This shows the current areas where the undead war has taken effect. As you can see large areas. Most of those with power have relocated to other planes. Some are making a factions of good and law. But... well lets just say there is a much infighting there as with the war itself. So helpless as getting organised and..."
Rosa interjected,
"I know all this we have the same maps in the office, I did not want to be told what I know. I want to know where he is"
He turned and looked at her.
"The Ancient Albatross Inn, the ones who will know where he is are meeting there. Me and the others have not been able to pin point the Enemy."
She finished her wine and stood, as she did the Black Blade blinked once more and reappeared on her back.
"You could have just told me that at the start, Mages, more Ego than sense. Show me"
The map changed as the mage smiles and said.
"And where would have been the fun in that, When you get there look for Sun Zhang Lao and pet Ape, O and Azorn the Unscathed may be coming. You helped him once did you not, with the Giant lord. Might be a good idea to have him pay that debt with help. Because dear Rosa, your going to need all the help you can get. The gods themselves are getting tangled in this one and you know what that means. It why me and the other are heading to out pocked planes."
She know what it mean, the possibly of a god war. Something no one wanted, the last one had cost countless lives and covered the world in darkness for 100s of years. She looked off into the distance.
"That's why I'm here, this has to end before we get to that."
She then bowed at the mage.
"Open the wards, I'm going, Until next time Grand Wizard McHalock"
And then she and her sword where gone. His task done the Grand Wizard McHalock also left the prime, wanting nothing to do with the battle to come.
She came into being in the center of the Inn and regretted it, as there was a loud clang. As mugs that where hanging on the Inns beams clattered to the floor. Rosa was bent over, being so tall she had to crane around to see the lay out of the in. She Spotted a fire and table. Hunched over she made her way to it, knocking more mugs and copper pans off the beams. There where two old boys sitting at the table. She pointed at the empty space in front of the fire.
"Do you mind?"
She asked, The two looked at her eyes wide, then grabbed there ale mugs and scooted out the way and across the room. She wanted them and then taking out a folding Chair from a belt pouch, opened it and placed it with its back to the fire. She reached around her back, and taking the Hells Blade placed it to the left of the fire. Only then did she sit, crossing her lags out in front of her and sitting back to a creaking sound from the chair. Arms folded she at last looked at the parents in the inn. A serving maid was looking at her an all was silence.
"Bottle of the best sweet wine, and please"
She pointed at the mugs and plates on the floor.
"pick up the mess, and tell your master I'll pay for the breakages."
She placed some coins on the now empty table next to her. For a moment the only sound was a drink wetting himself, then the shock was broken the Inn once again started up with talking and chatter.
As Rosa looked around, she pulled out a large gold cigar case, she opened it, taking out a cigar, reaching back she cut off the end on her Hell's blade and with a finger lit it. She took a deep pull and sent a cloud of hellish smoke into the inns rafters. There to join the smog from other pipes.
You name that ape Wu Kong and you better give him a quarterstaff. Just not right without.
Standing with him are a dozen paladins. Undead scourges of the Knights of Ozem, they glow with holy light as they smite each creature who comes their way, but he can tell that they begin to tire, and the waves of undead are too near to ignore. He bellows out a command - "Fall back! I saw an inn not too far south, fall back in that direction!"
While the paladins falteringly fall back, he calls for a crossbow barrage from a score of hobgoblins that he had lifted out of a besieged fortress. "Fire!" he booms, accentuating their volley with a trio of piercing fire rays which sear right through the skulls of several more of the undead.
With his men removed from melee, Azorn casts another spell, and a shimmering violet curtain of flame separates the men from the walking undead monstrosities. Two hundred feet long, waves of heat radiate from it, warding the undead back. "Go, go! They're not going to wait for you to pull the sticks out of your asses!" he shouts as he begins to run as well.
If we can keep going I'll give this a shot.
Before his spell of fire stops, she pulls a rod from he pack and points it at the fire and the army of dead beyond. "Hyjarth, Aspect of Gozreh. She who guides the wind. Grant the boon of your fiercest storm." She says her prayer and a spiral of violent wind circles the rod. She brings the rod back in slow motion. The spiral gets larger and larger, turning into a whip of violent wind. When she swings it back forward. The wind continues like a horizontal hurricane, blowing through the flames and whipping them into a conflagration damn near cataclysmic. At some predetermined point, the wind erupts outward into a violent tornado, throwing lesser undead all over the place like a giants plaything.
Her work done, she flies back towards the retreating soldiers and slightly above Azorn. "That will hold for about 6 hours." she says cheerily, as if she hadn't just caused a natural disaster. "Any of your people need healing? Or inflicting?" she asks looking at the undead wearily. They were fighting other undead so were they good undead? Was that a thing?
At the inn's door, she folds the wings away and they completely disappear along with the halo. She gets as far as the fireplace and nearly collapses into a bit of furniture. "Wow. That big ones really make me light-headed." She shakes her head and realizes the furniture she is leaning against is awfully soft for furniture. Hang on. That wasn't furniture. That was a person. A really big person. "Wow, you're big," she says stupidly.
A few moments later a voice comes in from above. "There was another breach of the ward behind the wall. A squad of wraiths and shadows were trying to get through to infect the living." The source of the voice fades into view. As he pulls up the visor on his adamantine plate, you see a face that looks too smooth to be human. "None got through." Venn keeps his shield handy and leads against the wall in his armor.
