The Artifact Crown [D&D 3.5] 10th level gestalt campaign Interest Check.

[Raineh Daze]

I'm still on the fence about how I'm going to relate to Bonnie. I need to decide that. Either way I've got an incredibly ancient and incredibly insane vampire, so there's that.

I'll have to do some thinking on how a level 10 gestalt/level 8 maid/2n level 6 limited maids perform.

Basic skeleton.

[Nanshork]

My character will be a LN mercenary who isn't above assassination work.

I'll go wherever that works.

[YuweaCurtis]

Reeeee thwarted by the wall again. Damn you Trump!   

[Kuroimaken]

I think for the first time in a loooooooooooong while I'd want to make a vampire.

Dat +8 LA though... And the sunlight vulnerability...

I don't suppose you have any homebrew handy for daywalkers?

Vampire monster class, then either a level of Vampire Lord or take the Light Eater feat from Septette for the Dead.

Downside is a three-feat tax and minimum CON req for a vampire.

The main question is how your character reacts to needing to follow the laws of the puny mortals since Bonnie's vampire followers are basically ok with that and the other vampires are just obeying with bad will (plus some "neural" vampires that stick away from civilization but those are relatively very few since there's not that much blood in the wilderness to sustain any higher numbers not to mention needing to stick to lawless areas).

Although since your character's "incredibly insane" they could also be tsundere and rant all the time about how Bonnie ruined everything yet still stick to the new status quo. 

My character will be a LN mercenary who isn't above assassination work.

That's a valid answer. But if things end up as half Bonnie and half "wherever", I'll pick another faction for the second party.

Also does your character charges the same for going after vampires?

Vampire for base, Vampire Lord and Septette for the Dead offer upgrades including the ability to shrug off the sun. Damn ninja'd by Raineh.

[Raineh Daze]

I mean, they're probably relatively sane most of the time. But Diabolic Wave has its downsides... 

[YuweaCurtis]

I mean, Bonnie was a rogue, she only actively supports laws that prevent total chaos... If you just happen to slip through a window and find someones wallet in your pocket that's totally fine.

[Nanshork]

Being able to assassinate undead easily is part of my build requirements. 

So yeah, the charge would be about the same for regular vampires.

[Kuroimaken]

Hm. Looks like I have one end of the gestalt solved...

Which classes get access to Septette? I'm assuming it's more than one.

[Raineh Daze]

Most of the Touhou classes let you pick any other school for your second school.

For obvious reasons, I'm hoping you don't go all in on vampire and septette. xD

[ketaro]

I think all of Os' monster classes that get martial schools also let you pick any school you want.

[ketaro]

Savage Arcadian Avenger 6/Monster of Legend 2/Orange Half-Dragon 2 // Oni Brawler 10

I'm going to be all party-hardy and make everything I touch explode. And everything I throw up on.

To be honest I don't really see how Bonnie can maintain any semblace of harmony in her island if everybody can just waltz in other people's homes and take everything that isn't nailed down. Even thieves guilds have some sort of "don't steal from other members nor people who paid their protection money" rules, and it will be kinda hard to just kick back and relax when you must be always looking over your shoulder to avoid having your stuff stolen.

As Raineh said all the ToBhou classes. Also Monado Master, Phalanx and Maiden can all cherry pick schools to use too. Jiang Shi is literally a (chinese) vampire with built-in maneuvers, even has the Qi Devourer ACF for synergy with Septette for the Dead. A Valkyrie vampire could be interesting too. There's the intelligent item and Zodar too. There's more monster classes with maneuvers but most are limited to a few options if not only one (like the Frostwind Virago uses only Crystallized Silver).

Looking great.

I mean y'all could just be in different parties. I still feel the characters could be different enough, i.e. using the cursed school or different classes

[ketaro]

ketaro has completed their character. 
(Except for maneuvers)

He's full of explosions and booze.

Don't worry, that's just one side of the gestalt.

I'm planning on going FULL WEIRD. Maybe something with MoMF and Innocently Deceptive Form.

EDIT: Huh. MoMF is not what I remember. Was it Warshaper then? I remember it was a class with 5 levels...

EDIT2: Yep, was Warshaper. Unfortunately, vampires cannot qualify and most of the benefits are lost on an undead anyway.

[Nanshork]

Okay, I've hit the point where I'm not going to ask for more things. After determining what kind of character I'm playing, I dug through a bunch of stuff again.

Side A is still decidedly Ætherforge.

Side B is going to be either Sniper or Wild Hunt. Power of Cybernetics has been nixed. I'm leaning towards Sniper.

[Kuroimaken]

Hmmm. Can I refluff Valkyrie somewhat so it's more like Hellsing's "army of devoured souls" rather than "battle maiden of the gods"?

[Nytemare3701]

If this is still open, I still have my Artificer//Factotum character that scales up or down power-wise to fit. Level 10 is early enough that the truly silly things aren't online yet anyway.

There's still place for you and another person assuming parties of five, which gives some redundancy.

I'll shoot you an overview of potentially problematic stuff. You've probably seen my handbook on it though, you know what I'm about :-P
