My only comment is: 'that's a lot of skills'. @_@

I'm jacking the hell out of Int and I've got 6/lv or 8/lv SP for all but 2 levels. Also, Scholar has some features that require IDing whatever we fight, so I wanted to have at least a few ranks in every relevant knowledge.

First picture is broken, second picture is a Zerochan link... and you can't link to them directly (you'll have to find another one or everyone else has to clear their cache after seeing that image).

Can we have a character sumary up until now so I know what role is available? Like, a one-line description of everyone's sheet? I'm still reading the material so I'm not sure what I'll cook up.

Colossal Nuclear Raven Super Robot Pilot. Very fast, lots of HP.

Mecha appearance is liable to be this unless I find a nicer picture. >.>

I'm feeling lazy with appearances this time.

Also, have I mentioned yet that Utsuho has the single best cape ever? The star background scrolls.

No problem I hope?

idk, Photobucket's layout changed and now instead of keeping the exact file name they have added random gibberish to the URL.

Let me know if it works for you now.

I've got a Nuclear Dragon // Arcane Pilot. Mech is pure defense and intended Stealth (has HiPS, capped Hide, reduced size to Huge so other mechs have spot penalties). Offense comes from the mech channeling the breath weapon (12d6~16d6, 1d4-1 cooldown), Spells, and damage based Maneuvers. It should be pretty high op like the post wants since Energy damage ignore Damage Reduction. And I'm trying to get the OK on Easy Metamagic which will let him Persist Fire Shield(4th, +6, easy/practical/errata-based arcane thesis buy off) and w/e retributive buffs I can find.

Flavor aim is LE, and has the ulterior goal of reminding people how bad open conflict actually is. Like it wouldn't be surprising to either side (or various factions?) for him to make a side trip to provide a crop field it's own nuclear fall out and claim the farmers attacked him first. But if he is on your side, he's quick to offer you Faustian Pacts on behalf of his underworld allies. If you're a teammate, as a True Dragon he can offer you a Dragonpact as well. Of course, the fact he is a True Dragon isn't directly confirmed to the public. Any publicized appearance of him over the years is him in a humanoid form. The rumors that Bahamut is a dragon form those that have seen it are typically chalked up to to the fact his mech is dragon shaped and breaths fire. Silly PTSD people getting confused and all.

Half of atomic damage is fire, and the other half is bludgeoning, by the way.

We have a Lawful Evil dragon that can utilise nuclear fusion, and a chaotic good half human half bird that uses the exact same stuff... and is bigger than said dragon. Well, this is going to be fun. :p

Opting for this image.

Ouch I guess, I knew it'd be too good to be true.

Almost done for me, working now on equipment, the Battleship herself, cleaning the skill list, and the background.

I'm a Divine Pilot // Mercane (planar trader monster class), Scholar (Int based martial adept with a knowledge focus and some archivist dark knowledge esque party buffing abilities)

In mech combat I'm a dedicated buffer. I have a permanent sanctuary effect, and the Divine Pilot's robot ends up uber pathetic so I won't be doing any attacking. I will be giving the party extra attacks, bonuses, healing mechs, and possibly doing some battlefield control depending on what is ruled to count as an attack.

In non mech combat I do the same stuff + summoning (which is useless in mech combat since the summons work on regular scale, not mech scale.)

Out of combat I find out stuff (knowledge skills + at will arcane sight) and some social interaction. I could be the party face if we don't have someone with a Cha focus who wants the job. I can also be the party taxi service with 4/day dimension door or 2/day teleport/plane shift.

Alignment wise, he's neutral. He's a snake oil salesman type who found religion but can't quite shake the desire to screw people over every so often. Thinks he's the smartest guy in the room.

Oslecamo, thank you for the offer. But I do not think I'll be joining. Right now I'm really itching for some Pathfinder campaigns(rather than another 3.5 campaign).

I'll read through the extra fluff thought and if I do get inspired(hate lack of ideas), I'll let you know, but don't save a spot for me.

So what do extra basic weapons do? :???

More attacks of course, altough you'll need something else to help offset the penalties for multiweapon fighting.

SorO_Lost:You can pick either easy or practical metamagic, not both.

Loving the fluff development BTW. :D

Ah, time to change my Upgrades around, then, since I'm not getting much mileage out of extra basic attacks.

Extra for 2 x Arsenal Space it is, then. Need to get an awesome cape to chuck on this. :lmao

Odd that you can gain Reactor but not Nanomachines from Arsenal stuff.

Would the Plain History maneuver Ambition Crisis Conquest count as an attack for the purposes of sancturary? How about Ambition Crisis Treason?

EDIT: Also, the Sacred Treasure Land stance. Is that an attack?

Haha. I made a pretty strong character that would likely be a good fit for a campaign like this but it would be yet another Divine Flame user, so nevermind that.  :rolleyes

You should do it! Then I can pick Divine Flame as my second discipline for Scholar and we'll all be the Nuclear Anihilation buddies!

Total speed freak. Hit & run in mech combat. Hit everything & run in non-mech combat. A very "can't touch this" kind of thing. Pretty much screwed if ever caught flat-footed.

For the mech, I just feel like the pic for the Astelion in the Real Robot list works.

I actually find it interesting that if I'm in mech combat and I ever get taken out, I can just bail out, go into Overdrive with my Nano Armor, and fight on mu scale with other mechs for like a minute. Assumedly.

I'd be cool with it but you cannot pick Divine Flame as you second discipline. If you take it with Scholar, it has to be your only one.
