    He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.

    Now that's a challenge, the Dragoon's maximized potential relies on mounted combat. I'll scrounge feats for a bit.

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Just post 'em here when you're ready.

  • He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.

    What level should the character start?

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    One, unless you don't want to participate in the initial adventure, in which case PM me to work out roleplaying details and start at Level 3.

  • He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.

    What races are allowed?

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Any of the core races.

    @vandro: Mounted combat as a fighter is generally not that great an idea, even as a Dragoon, because horses are very fragile... although if you take 4 levels in Cavalier somewhere down the line, you can take a feat that gives your mount a progression equal to your character level.


     


    @Nova: Would the Qinngong Monk archetype be fine? And could I get (again) a basic idea of the setting and campaign, for backstory purposes. If there isn't an overarching story, I could always go the Kung Fu, route.

    Thanks for the heads-up, but it's kinda late, I've already played this class before, and got my horse killed. But then, they are expendable. There's also the monster cohort route as well.


    I was watching Kung Fu the other night. What a good show.

    Yes.



    And could I get (again) a basic idea of the setting and campaign, for backstory purposes.



    The campaign primarily takes place inside an ever-expanding city. Nobody quite knows why the city is always expanding; all anybody knows is that everyone inside the city has a compunction to pick up and build a new house on the outskirts of the city every few years. This has lead to a vast, sprawling city, with many areas of it currently uninhabited.


    Within the city, seven noble Houses are playing against each other for power and wealth. These conflicts often hurt many of the regular citizens within the city.


    Outside of the city, the land is growing more wild and vicious. The jungle directly outside the city of Evermor is constantly growing thicker, with more and more creatures being born. The oceans are churning, and are currently teeming with life. Even the air itself seems richer and denser.


    As for the story itself, you're doing two things. You're going to be searching out the cause of the constant expansion of the city; and you're going to be helping a noble lady win herself a platform, from which she can take control of House Eris, and hopefully from there, help the people of the city.

    Ooh, this would actually be really helpful for my build idea, because then I wouldn't have to wait to access the Dervish Dance feat, if I play an Elf.

    What bout my character sheet?

    Are we assuming average starting wealth, or rolling for it? I'm almost done with Django, but I need to know that before I start buying stuff.


    EDIT: For armors/weapons, would the Adventurer's Armory be okay to use? Going off of this armor chart, this might be of use to me, depending on how much money I start with, and if I was to not use the Kensai archetype.

    Well, if you wish to do that, PM me.

    You have one too many skill ranks (5, when you have 2+Int modifier a level, +1 for being human).


    Plus, you lack items, which leads me to;

    Assuming you don't start at Level 3, you roll for wealth, yes.

    I'd like to see the weapons first.

    Couldn't we just take a vote here? Or do you mean, if just I want to start at level 3, because I don't want to start off at a higher level than anyone else.

    Okay. (Rolled: 4d6. Rolls: 1, 6, 5, 3. Total: 15)

    Eh, for what it's worth, I'll stick with Kensai, so feel free to disregard that, unless someone else asks. Never mind, some of the equipment I'd like is from it, so here.


    What about the Pathfinder Field Society Guide? Is Dungeoneering going to factor in often enough for a Dungeoneering Kit to be a good idea?




    POTENTIAL CHEATING DETECTED. If it appears that dice were rolled in this post, they may need to be disregarded as fabricated.

    I meant, if you wanted to start at Level 3. Reason being, there's an initial adventure (I spoke about it earlier in the thread; going to tackle a crypt within the city that's harassing some of the locals), and the people who finish the initial adventure should end up around Level 3 (plus or minus a bit), plus have a reason to go on later adventures relating to that crypt.


    Anyone who starts at Level 3 simply skips that early adventure, and then PM's me to work out the details, RP-wise, as to why you would go on the later adventures.

    Ah. Well, Weapon Finesse lets me use other stuff, until I go full Dervish Dance (in-character, Django's still practicing with his ancient Scimitar when he can). So, I'll go along with the first quest.

    Anyway.

    I want to accept it just for the sheer absurdity of allowing 'sharpened combat scabbards' into the game.

    I don't actually know what either of those things are.

    Has friends besides tanks now

    A Dungeoneering Kit has: "2 candles, chalk, a hammer and 4 pitons, 50 feet of hemp rope, a hooded lantern with 5 flasks of oil, 2 sacks, 2 torches, and 4 tindertwigs." Costs 15 GP and weighs 25 lbs.


    As for the rest of the book, I dunno.


    But I think I've settled on equipment anyway. I wasn't actually able to take that much without over-encumbering  myself, because apparently a waterskin weighs 4 lbs, and a backpack 2. >_>



    sharpened combat scabbards



    I agree that this needs to happen.


    EDIT: Another question: are we making money weigh anything?


    EDIT 2: Hopefully this is my last question: did you have a name in mind for this campaign?

    You probably won't need that. Maybe the rope and lanters+oil, but that should be it.

    No.

    Oh, yeah, Favored Class. I'll go do that. Along with writing the flavor stuff, and then I'll be done.

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    I'll have my actual character sheet to you as soon as....well as soon as Funnyguts has time to help me with it.


    Which will ideally be soon.

    If anything's amiss, someone let me know.

    How do you have more spells than I do.

    Right. You didn't mark Fighter/Dragoon as your favoured class. (Also, I think I can give Tetra bonus HP and skill points for that, sweet.)



    If anything's amiss, someone let me know.



    Nope. Although I'm assuming Kensai is your favoured class here.

  • Has friends besides tanks now

    Yeah. I'll note that, then.

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    Hey isn't there an Elf in Morrowind named Django somethingorather?

  • Has friends besides tanks now

    No idea. If there is, I can change Django to Djanain, or something.


    Actually, Djanain is pretty cool anyway. I'mma do that.

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    I don't care or anything, I was just wondering.
