Looking for players (D&D 3.5)

[TastyBacon]

Alright, sounds wonky enough to catch my interest :P haha

I was thinking of going with a druid, not crazy half breed combination things, except maybe half-elf, depending on how he would be built, but even that is unlikely.

I cannot say for sure how he will be built, it would be easier to wait until I know the rest of the party to decide what we would need.  I would like to build him as a Druid/Barbarian that essentially uses spells to put all sorts of crazy effects on his weapon and buff himself and then go rage on things.

Either that or have him be a grappler focused character using spells and wildshape to increase his grappling.  Or just have him go pure spellcasting, which I can build either a buff focuse or damage focus.  Pretty much I can make him focus on just about anything, which is one of the reasons I love the druid class.

That's the build combat-wise.  Character wise I have a couple different ideas mulling around, though they are all fairly straightforward and simple, I prefer to have my characters develop during the course of play rather than have most everything already set pretty firm due to an intricate backstory.  But I do love story driven games, for me D&D is more about the story and the RPing than the dungeon crawl, level grinding monster mash some games focus on.

Has anyone laid out what they actually want to play? Class, race, gender, etc.?

[Sabriel]

Yeah a few of us have.

Here is part of mine bellow, although I am quite happy to change to a different character if it would fit the group better it sound like the premise of the story has changed a bit anyway.

Character Name: Tonica Cannith
Character Race:  Human
Character Class: Artificer
Character Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Appearance: Tonica is 5ft 7 inches with auburn hair and bright green emerald eyes she has a warm welcoming almost noble face and full pert lips that give her a flirty appeal. Her hair is usually worn in braids and bunches and kept from falling in front or obscuring her face. She dresses for the occasion but is usually found  wearing the garb of her professions or decked out like she is ready for adventure, It is not uncommon for her to be seen with unusual implements or accessories at hand.


Character Concept:  Tonica is a noble of House Cannith and has developed the mark of her house, her parents had hoped to make a noble woman out of her but alas Tonica has always seamed more interested in work and adventure than politics and status.  Ironically however Tonica's spirit and dedication seams to be garnering her a good and well respectable reputation regardless of her common working girl outlook. Tonica 's trade as a craftswoman is one of her primary pursuits although she also spends a lot of her time working with and repairing warforged, she is well known for her friendly and motherly nature towards them and any constructs. When she is not busy in the workshops or forges or assisting warforged Tonica is working as a siege engineer, or accompanying warforged/constructs on missions for her house or other houses and occasionally as a mercenary for hire.

                                             A handy one for the basics is
http://www.d20srd.org/

                        Starting level is 3rd and you can assume that by now you have the basic equipment you need as well as the usual adventuring equipment.  As you have had some adventuring your weapons and armour will be masterwork.
                    As well you can pick items up to 1000gp from the following lists.

http://www.d20srd.org/indexes/magicItems.htm

         Hit points are the maximum for level 3, so you can take a few knocks.

[TastyBacon]

What about stats?  Roll or point buy?  If point buy, how much, and if roll, are we doing it somewhere to be able to confirm it or what?

[bigwad73]

I was thinking of playing a human male Wizard with one level of cleric (Wiz, Wiz, Cleric).  He's a Mystra worshipper, and he's from Faerun, at least originally.  He's tall and thin, with a fair completion and reddish-brown hair.  He's calm and cool, and very intelligent, but likes to joke around and make puns.

His background includes an education at Waterdeep, his home town, and then a recent stint of adventuring that left him with the others.

(Just a rough idea, but you get the picture, I hope.)

[grovercjuk]

Point buy 32 which should give reasonable stats.

[NicciKotor]

Is this still open? Always up for more naughty 3.5.

[Kate]

i like role playing with a structured rule set however i find making characters annoying
would any be willing to create a character for me and i just fill in bio / add a photo ?

im happy to go whatever class the party needs

[Senti]

Grover ...sweetie...you know Storm is always availble to 'help' people. If there is room she can join in.  he he he.

she is only human :)

[tuckers02]

It looks like your still looking for players.  I'd be interested in playing a female human healer if no one else has a problem with that.  This will be my second game on elliquiy and only the first non-freeform game so I might need help until I learn the rtj structure of this site, but I'm experienced in PbMB and DnD 3.5.  Please let me know how to get started if you're willing to accept me.

[grovercjuk]

OK lets sort out the players and what classes we have in the group.
So everyone please post what class they intend to play, thanks.

[tuckers02]

If you will allow me, I'd like to play a Healer (Miniature's Handbook).  If it's just PHB classes only, I'll just play a Cleric with the Healing domain.

[Senti]

Storm is a rogue/fighter....oh yeah and a horrible drunk.

[NicciKotor]

I can do a elf sorceress no problem. I feel like making things explode lately. Explosions are always naughty.

[bigwad73]

Again, just to be clear, a human male Wiz 2/Cleric 1.

[Kate]

 NicciKotor good for you - everone does sneaking charm spells and the like

something REALLY satisfying about a witch going "take that" and its blatant like a lightningbolt of fireball in the chest.

It has a charm about it that subtlety doesnt manage :)

[TastyBacon]

Male druid, unsure on the race yet, but I will be building him as a heavy melee character

[NicciKotor]

Have we found a DM for this game yet? That would be rather important aspect for this thing to work.

[Muse]

*peaks in too see if there is still room* 

[TastyBacon]

Yes there is, grovercjuk is the DM.  They've already outlined things needed for character creation and the setting in this thread.  I don't know how many players we already have/are going to be allowed though.

[NicciKotor]

AH ok, I see now. Gonna work on this later tonight then.

[Sabriel]

OK I have made up a character ^.^

http://plothook.net/RPG/profiler/view.php?id=7811

Character Name: Crystal
Character Race: Elan
Character Class: Psion
Character Alignment: Neutral
Appearance: Crystal is 4ft 7 inches with fiery red hair and bright green emerald eyes and pale complextion she has a  distant look as if always considering other things and an alluring appeal. Her hair is worn long and free and often falls in wispy strands about her face and shoulders. She dresses for the occasion but is usually found wearing a set of studded formfitting leather or decked out in casual clothing, It is not uncommon for her to be seen with worn jewellery.




Character Concept: Crystal as she is known is enigmatic figure who is a mystery even to herself perhaps more so than she is to others, Crystal does not know who she is or how exactly she came to be, she was found under mysterious circumstances wandering the streets of Palanthas living on the streets confused and addled.  She was eventually picked up and taken in by a kindly white robes Wizard who was intrigued by the girls ability to survive seemingly healthy upon the streets without any clear understanding of how to do such. He put her up in rooms and tried to help her recover some of her memories and discover just who she was although no progress ever seamed to be made, under his care however he did discover she had some certain knowledge and skills which she seamed to recall. A keen interest for sculpting and gemcutting crystals seemingly a favourite she begun to ply a trade as a sculptor and gem cutter with the Wizards support.  The Wizard was starting to make some progress with Crystal as she had become affectionately known, the fault of one of the Wizards old friends a Kender whom Crystal could not quite fathom or understand but for some reason found immensely likeable.  It was not long before her Kender friend got Crystal into trouble however after convincing her to go with him to visit this amazing new tavern that he had discovered, Crystal eventually gave in and went along with her friend to see this new establishment under the premise proposed by the Kender that there might be some work or even buyers for her wares there. Crystal entered the tavern with the Kender but as per usual in any such environment he was of on his own leaving her to find her own way, she made herself comfortable in a corner out of the way deciding to just wait out her Kender's friends patience for the place. It was not long before   he had caused a stir and was be cased around the bar and making for the exit, Crystal made to leave herself but found her mind begin to cloud and darken as she slipped into a deep slumber.  She awoke the next day with little memory of the previous events and begun her day behind the bar in the tavern as barmaid just as she had been doing for years before at least that was how she remembered it at least.  Crystal now believes she was taken in by the owners of the tavern that she was an orphan child and has worked in the tavern for years she knows not her true origins or how she truly came to master her powers as a Psion shaper.  Her main goals are to discover more about herself and learn the gaps in he memory and how she came to be where she is today, she has a slightly detached view of things at times and tends to take a distant view of things which aren't related to her main focus in life.
 

[Senti]

I shall get Storm up soon.

Be warned she is abusive, drunk  and in general unpleasent....just what everyone wants in the party.

[Sabriel]

So she is a Dwarf then ?  ;D
