Pathfinder SKYRIM: Land of the Linnorm Kings (CLOSED)

[Hexed]

So... Another spellcaster. <.<  >.>

That changeling winter witch I'd been working on. So sorry Chulanowa. No paladin here. :(

Name: Albin
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Alignment: CN
Race: Changeling
Sexual Orientation: Bi
Deity: Besmara

Physical: Pale and short even if plumper then one of her height should be. Dresses lightly as she very rarely notices cold.  One eye is a pale blue while her other is a faded purple. Has a pet fox with white fur.

Personality: Very curious and willing to poke her nose into just about anything if she can learn something.  Energetically cheerful but soft spoken, more likely to poke and point then shout or yell. Unlikely to take the lead unless positive she knows better then anyone else around what's going on. Talks to her fox and gets upset if other's don't believe she can understand it. Odd sense of humor and may pull pranks, although they can easily backfire on her.

In 2 Sentences: Hag's daughter raised in the south come north following a faint urge.  Follows the way of Transformation with a boatload of Winter.

Ons: Cuddles and Dungeons!   
Offs: Really rough stuff, scat, piss, blood. During sex at least. If it's a fight don't expect blood getting her to draw back.   Bullies and thugs will earn her scorn

[Angie]

I'm going to pull myself out of the running for this game. Seems rather crowded, and there's only a limited number of slots anyway, so I'll save Tinalia for another time.

[Grizzly]

I'm working up a cat folk slayer.  I won't have time to write it up tonight but I should have something for tomorrow.  It was a long day at work...

[Krys]

Is there a way to make the two Investigator archetypes Questioner and Empiricist work together? It looks like the perfect combination for my idea, but if I get it right, the overlapping of poison lore replacement  disallows it. Are there options to make it work still?

[Quasar]

From what I can see, I can't find any way to combine them due to that poison ability.  I assume what you're looking for is the Int substitution to certain skills from the Empiricist.  The best I can think of right now is to go with the Questioner and then use some traits that substitute Charisma for use of Intelligence.

Maybe someone else might be able to suggest a more elegant solution?

[Krys]

*nod* Yes, it's Ceaseless Observation (Ex), as it allows a social char to shine without making her excessively beautiful/charismatic. Replacing it with traits will be rather difficult, but I'll look into it.

The main idea is, to give her just enough Charisma to make her a sweet and lovable person. But her main attribute will be her brilliant intellect, allowing her to fill in the role as the groups scholar as well as face. Ceaseless Observation would be extremely useful to do so, strongly supported by a careful selection of bardic spells. Also the bardic aspect would fit well in with my idea to make her an accomplished, but not professional musician.

Hmm, maybe there is another investigator aspect I could drop to allow for the combination?  Studied strike for example? Which if I get it correctly is a rather powerful ability, though doesn't fit with my concept anyway.

[Chulanowa]

Clever Wordplay (Social)
pragmatic Activator (Magic)
Bruising Intellect (Social)
Student of Philosophy (Social)

However, my advice? Just go Empiricist. Alchemy is seriously the only thing that gives the Investigator an edge over hiring an expert for 10 SP/day at the low levels, and trading it off makes it very difficult for the Investigator to contribute and keep up with the party. And trading off your one and only combat strength is also not a great idea. i say this as someone who tried it with a Psychic Detective, and again with a Majordomo. Even a default investigator is pretty feeble before level 4, selling off its limited strengths before then is a complete pain.

If all you want to be is a walking ball of skill points? I'd suggest going Unchained Rogue and at least getting some incidental sneak attack out of the deal.

[Autocad]

Name: Inge Svaegdottir (Warpriest of Gorum)
Age: 18
Gender: Futanari (if not going that route, then female)
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Race: Human
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Deity: Gorum

Physical: The first impression most people have of Inge is her height, though technically it is often the second thing noticed, the first being her bosom straining against the confines of her iron armor, conveniently at most people's eye level, and only afterwards do they have to look up at her, sometimes needing encouragement from the greatsword she always carries around with her. She has the crimson of rusted iron in her hair and the green of corroded bronze in her eyes. The symmetry of her fair face is marred by a scar on her right cheek.

Personality: Like the god she worships, Inge believes in the mantra "might makes right" above all, and is not above taking what she wants by force. She is cold and calculating, willing - perhaps too much so - to make sacrifices for the greater good. But she knows all too well the strength of having comrades-in-arms, and gravitates towards joining a group, so long as it is worthy of her strength. As a warpriest of Gorum she has sworn an oath forsaking non-metallic weapons and armor.

In 2 Sentences: Inge's goal is simple: to coat her blade in the blood of her foes for the glory of Gorum. Yet violence unjustified by a cause is criminal murder, not glorious war, so she has to seek out honorable battle where ever it may be found.

Ons: Consensual, non-consensual, forced / multiple orgasms, dares (go into the next battle with your boobs/cock hanging out!), predicaments, sadistic choices.
Offs: Bodily waste, gore (during sex. Bloody battles are fine). In-character offs: oath-breakers, cheats, haggling, weakness.

[Grizzly]

Name: Hawk
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Alignment: CG
Race: Catfolk
Sexual Orientation: Hetero
Deity: Gorum

Physical: Typical of Catfolk, Hawk has a decidedly feline head atop a furry human-like body, complete with a tail.  His fur is a mix of a white base with black stripes, better for prowling about the snows of Irrisen.  He has a more athletic build, lean but muscular, emphasizing grace and agility over raw physical power.

Personality: Most Catfolk tend to be loners but not Hawk.  He enjoys the company of others but is not above prowling off into the shadows on his own should the urge strike him.  Cautiously curious, Hawk finds distractions easily and has been known to be drawn towards tracks.  His hunter instinct is well intact though he does not have a great deal of fighting experience to back it up.  A discerning and somewhat fussy palate has lead him to seek out new and exciting spices for cooking.

In 2 Sentences: A white furred hunter of interesting prey and spices, straddling the line between wild and civilized, instinct and upbringing.  An uncommon feline face seeking acceptance, even if instinct says otherwise.

Ons: Fairly open to ideas of a sexual nature, if the characterization would make for a good story.   
Offs: Scat and other bodily fluids.

[Krys]

Name: Eirian Avenstar
Age: 16
Gender: female
Alignment: chaotic good
Race: human
Sexual Orientation: unsure

Deity: Coming to the gods, Eirian surely isn't one of the most devote of followers. Some would even say, her sceptic scientific mind is headed towards agnosticism. Which is not an easy task, living in a city where anyone could attempt the trial of the cathedral of the starstone... and return as a deity him or herself. If there are gods that have importance to Eirian, it should be Shelyn goddess of art, beauty and love, Desna goddess of the stars, travel and luck, and lastly Calistria with her lighter aspects of knowledge, trickery and lust. Though none of even these three is really touching Eirians heart in a way that would kindle the flame of true faith. As the aspects Eirian herself holds most dear are creativity, invention and curiosity, which are yet not represented by any deity.

Physical: Lithe of build, and with a face as soft and cute as her voice, she is often underestimated. But anyone able to see, will recognize the curiosity and intelligence burning in her dark blue almost violet eyes. Unlike most humans with elvish blood, she sports a sweet smattering of freckles around her nose. Her style of clothes is usually as simple but practically as her coppery/auburn hair. Still while she might not follow the trends of la moda, or intent to catch the eyes of young men, her natural grace, and the pragmatic body-hugging nature of her clothes (you do not want to have a long flowing robe get caught in a large clockwork apparatus) emphasize her young slender, slightly tomboyish body just in the right way.

Personality: Sadly none of the interested boys (or girls) has yet been able to find the right key to her heart. It seems as if she is (till now) almost oblivious to the meanings of the hidden or even open compliments given to her. Like a young budding cherry tree, she is at the brink of blossoming, opening up like a flower her petals for the sun. A sweet tease to all the bumblebees looking for nectar, to drink deep from the Calistrias and Shelyns blessings of love and lust. They have to wait... just a little while longer.

In 2 Sentences: A young optimistic merchant, always knowing an ode or saga about almost everything to be found anywhere. Knowledge and songs which she is just to willing to share

Ons: How would you know, what you are into, if you haven't even felt the need to look into it yet?
Offs: Violence, Smut ...

[Muse]

*Chuckles* 

If it's not too late, I could give a paladin a try? 

[Krys]

* Krys looks around for a can opener "Feel free" ^^

[Chulanowa]

So now we know what Deckard Cain would be like as a 16 year old girl.  "Ah, what you have there is a Thassalonian rune. stay a while, and listen..."

And a Paladin? Who said anything about a Paladin?

[clonkertink]

I dunno. I think it came up a couple pages ago in the thread. Don't really wanna go back and reread it.

Also, hi Muse!

[Krys]

Hmm, as long as you do not compare me with Leah...

[Prosak]

Know who she reminds me of? Lea- I am just joshing you. lol.

[Krys]

* Krys smiles sweetly, and rams a bloodred jewel right into Prosaks forehead

"That would have hurt... if it was the right jewel"

[Chulanowa]

-Waits with bated breath-

[Quasar]

Okay, so in a few hours, I don't think it will be Friday in any part of the world.  Provided nothing new comes in, it should be a relatively short wait for the big announcement.

[Krys]

Don't worry, we are not impatient at all. 

[Prosak]

I am! *No not really lol.*

You do what you need to GM dude, life comes first. :)

[Quasar]

Okay, so we have the anticipated moment.  In some cases its been a bit of tough choice, since practically everyone brought concepts I'd like to explore.  Well, no point in stalling I suppose, other than to say no hard feelings on those who didn't make it.

Those who shall head off to forge destinies in the Land of the Linnorm Kings are:

• Clonkertink: Howling Wind
• Bibliophilia: Elisa Morasan
• ChaoticSky: Kell
• Prosak: Jacob Conner
• Krys: Erian Avenstar
• Argent Adonis: Harkon Stormknife
• Chulanowa: Velta Baradin

You may now gather your party and venture forth to the OOC thread.

I would like to take the time to thank everyone else for their characters submitted and it was a genuinely hard time to choose between all of them as they all brought with them things that piqued my interest!
