[Discussion] The Nameless discussion thread
« on: July 10, 2012, 07:30:10 PM »
Post in this thread, or a new team thread?




EDIT by sirp: sorry to edit your post, SV, but I wanted to add the [Discussion] tag to the subject.

Either way.  I can make a new team thread for you new guys, or we can wait until you're more developed.

Up to you, though character dev stuff might clog/fill this thread.

Heh still haven't decided on a concept. Looking at Yuan-ti at the moment.

I've scrapped the Blood King idea.  I'm thinking about a Spellshaper (which is already approved).

How would a full blown Yuan-Ti work out in this setting? I'm thinking maybe not too well...?

I also second Phae's idea for seperate team discussion. Part of what will help me make a decision is possibly filling in a character role gap heh.

Awesomely Awesome Adventuers?

Though heh, kinda want something a bit more serious and more IC. Maybe Skillful Shadows?

Right now concepts I'm considering are

Wood Elf Sniper

Lawful Evil Cleric of The Dark God

Sun Elf Generalist Wizard(though kinda already playing that in another of SirP's PBPs)

Yuan-Ti....something.

Still so many possilblities and options! Those are just what I've thought of so far.

Edit: Or a Human Dread Necromancer.

I'm also interested, and have been tinkering with a build, but got kidnapped by my family last night before I could get into the conversation.

Could add on to our team, I don't mind having a 6 person team. You've got my vote.

It would be hilarious if you played a sniper, since then there would be one on every team.

Yuan-ti would work fine... a member of the Fallen, probably.  Though, they're not outsiders, right?  Not to say you shouldn't be something else if you want.

Venn would make 5 for you guys.  Phaedrus is already on another team.

Oh, right.

BTW I updated the Brotherhood.

I'll have to read over the Fallen. Not sure how well Yuan-ti would fit with the fallen, they are monstrous humanoids(rather than Outsiders-Demons & Devils). Might go the suggested route in the Yuan-Ti class post and eventually take cleric. Progression would most likely be Yuan Ti 7(levels 1 through 7)/Cleric 13(From Level 8 on up). Though with the spellcasting penalities for not worshiping The Dark God, it might not be a good idea. (I know he can follow an ideal, but I perfer to have my clerics worship deities.) And also the Yuan-Ti would probably be Chaotic Evil(Smart). But it's seeming as though Yuan-Ti might not be a good fit for this campaign, but still open to the idea. How would a Yuan-ti cleric work in this world.

And if not yuan-ti I still have plenty of ideas.

Human Cleric of The Dark God

Sun Elf Generalist, Liscenced Magi,

Sniper of some type(Wood Elf, older human(grizzled military vet) ).

Dread Necromancer.

Maybe even the cliched gnome that just loves fire.

But if we could make a Yuan-Ti Abomination Cleric work, I think that'd be fairly cool.

For those curious, I intend to do some ubercharging tripping dungeoncrashing Bloodstorm Blade kickassery.  Or I might flip the half-ogre to primordial and have fun being a warlock.  Both are concepts I've wanted to try for a while now.

Oh, question while it's on my mind: The fighter variants from Dragon 310 are allowed, correct?  What are your plans to deal with the pugilist Shake it Off + Warforged Improved Resiliency problem?  My first though is that instead of only gaining nonlethal damage, the character can shake off some lethal damage and put into nonlethal at the rate of x per rounds or minute or something.  Maybe make it a turn up to 5 points of lethal damage into nonlethal per character level some number of times per day.

I'll take you up in that offer!

My planned character is basically a library rat that likes to go around searching for ancient texts and is followed by a bunch of actual pet rats (or are they?), a combination of several of my homebrews. Current sheet, still quite WIP.
