It'll take probably 150 more hours to finish...

not including the necessary research...

@Ketaro

Good job like the character so far. Did you decide one of the clans to belong to? Otherwise i may of missed it.

Changed my mind, if that's allowed. The high CHA wouldn't be doing all that much after all. :rolleyes

Yeah, I know the outfit is Chinese, but the Dragon Clan are a weird bunch in mountains. >.>

Oh, clans, I forgot!

I don't know if my status as a wandering entertainer/secretly a yokai changes things any or if I'd actually have a clan, but I imagine if I was bluffing (which I am wont to do) I'd probably fit in best with the Crane clan.  Viva la blackmail!

Wooo Rainy is back! :D


As for clans, I honestly don't feel like there would be specific one I'd be attached to. In fact it's easy to simply see my character as a non-noble considering her station, maybe along as an acquaintance to one who is.

Well you don't have to be a noble to be associated with the cland :p however considering your character is a shrine maiden you could be someone who stayed neutral from the clans as your family has for generations.

Busy yesterday and lost power today. :/ Was thinking of Swordsage "ninja" (choosing This discipline instead of setting sun).
Hmm.

Oops, I spilled my homebrew all over the floor!  Don't mind me, or this tempting fragment!

Hmmm I think the power loss of setting sun compared to this may not be enough. However I am willing to try this out and for the sake of diversity I say go for it.

Anthopomorphic Animal? Please don't create an uber-tentacled grappler monster. D:

Do we actually have the ability to attack anything more than five feet away from us?

I was being a little lazy last night and was slightly tired. Is the anthromorphic animal a class? Or a race that lvls with you? Also how powerful is this race if it is one if i wanted no races with lvl adj. Would this fall under that since it is homebrew?

It's a class that's also your race. There's a whole subforum that essentially turns monsters into classes.

Ok so now that I've slept and wasnt to lazy to look over this. The ability to create your own race even tho you lose class lvls is still pretty powerful given what some of your choices are. Also including the fact that by lvl 6 you get a +6 to two ability scores. Thats way more than a class preogression gets by lvl 20. Gotta say I'm jot gonna allow this. Sorry man.
