Pathfinder SKYRIM: Land of the Linnorm Kings (CLOSED)

[Prosak]

Thats a good thing Angie, lol. I highly promote party alignment diversity, A nuetral Good character can perform actions in a way that a CN character cant. A LG character can do things the good way and a CE character can torture some one while the LG character is otherwise kept busy. Of coarse it depends on what kinds of characters a DM will allow, but in the end Alignment diversity is another key factor to success. It is more important then people think. :) Lol.

Edit: It is also important for Party dynamics, a bunch of CN's is not necessarily a compelling cast of diverse personalities. In fact, it would be like a bunch of angsty teens trying to hike together.

[Angie]

It also helps that my Diplomacy and Bluff are both insanely high-hell, my Diplomacy is in the double digits already. So Tinalia could be the central character bringing everyone together and inspiring them to heroic feats.

"Just because our foes are the way they are, does not mean we must descend to their level. Let's help these people out, and perhaps they will return our kindness?"

[Prosak]

Exactly lol. The main problem with so many being CN is the fact that a CN either finds it hard to care for others, or is unsure on if they still care about other human beings or not. This uncertainty of personal connection, Uncertainty of personal morals is going to cause to much of a head ache for the party as a whole. So having a CG and a NG in there to mix things up is important towards the over all dynamic. Nothing will get done otherwise.

It is like having a bunch of Spawn's (Al Simon's AKA: Comic book Spawn) and Jack Sparrow's without a Will Turner or homeless people around to spur our good side. lol.

Edit: Of coarse there are a lot of people for the DM to consider so I am not worried about it lol, in the first place just thought it was funny how popular CN was in this thread.

[clonkertink]

I think the big thing is just keeping that separation between character and player. Sure, my character is slow to trust and wary of betrayal, but as a player I acknowledge that by choosing to play that character, it's my job to make it work, and find a reason for my character to tag along.

I like starting at that point, though, because it gives my character a lot of room for growth. He may be wary and distrusting now, but after a few adventures and near-death experiences I suspect that will change.

[Quasar]

Wow, so much happened in the metaphorical blink of an eye, lol!  Guess I better start reviewing!

Interesting! Gonna have to narrow down my ideas before i present a concept though.


Side question; is Torag not also one of the main deities of the LLK? I thought he was up there with gorum and desna, mostly in the aspect as a honourable father-figure (not-Odin), in contrast with Gorum's battlelust and Desna's wandering ways. They are noted as one of the non-dwarf groups that revere him.

Torag is indeed one of the main deities of Golarion, however, his popularity in LoTLK is not as high and so his religion is not as prevalent - dwarves are his strongest proponents, and generally smiths and a few others.  LG in a CN land... go figure I guess.

Edit: For the record, I'm going to leave the recruitment open until this coming Friday (26th), so no one should feel pressured, and if you would like to revise your character to something else, you may do so as well.  After Friday, no further revisions should be made as I will consider who'll be heading off to the Land of the Linnorm Kings!

Thinking about throwing in a chaotic good supporter. Anything really needed at the moment?

[Prosak]

Name: Jacob Conner's 
Age: 23
Gender: M
Alignment: Chaotic Good / Neutral (I will decide on which depending on what everyone else is if I am chosen. Personality works for both, just differ's in it's extreme's depending on which it is in the end.)

Race: Human
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Deity: Calistria (After a past event.)

Physical: 6 foot 1 inches tall, he has shoulder length brown hair, green eyes. He has a healthy, masculine figure from long hour's of physical labor in his past. He has a scar from a stab wound just under his right breast, narrowly missing his heart. He may be a fighter, but he always has his lute on him, never keeping it to far from hand.

Personality: To this day, try as he might to not be this way, Jacob still easily trust's and cares for others. He would prefer to be selfish, he would prefer to focus on his quest at all costs. But sometimes he cant help but to show charity to some, aid to others. Or a friendly ear to his friends.  There was a time where he would be called a happy man, a good man even. But past event's have left him with a cynical ire for the world. He try's to keep a happy, confident demeanor. But it is obvious that he is struggling with something. He typically is good about saving face and being himself. He typically does try to be calm and collected to. But he has a protective nature for his Lute which is something fierce, even touching it without permission will make him snap at you. Maybe even get into a confrontation. Regardless of that, he is a clever man. Strong yes, but not entirely that good at combat. Not yet any way. He prefer's to address situations with a thoughtful nature, using tactics if possible and dirty tricks if he must. Survival is his focus. Because nothing matters more to him then his quest! Right... Other people are expendable!... Or at least thats what he tell's himself. But deep down he is still a caring and deeply empathetic man, who will help others... They just owe him later for it!... (Though he would likely just let it pass if he likes you. )

Essentially: He is the charming and self centered rogue, but try as he might to focus on himself he cant help but care for others and go out of his way to do them a solid.

In 2 Sentences:  Jacob is not typically open about his past, but a deep sadness follows him and one can easily tell something is hurting him. Draining much of his ability to show care for others.... A far cry from the Horse Tamer he used to be just a year ago, Jacob has begun putting himself out there as a Levy. A fighter for hire. Hoping to hone his skill's, for a daunting task that in all likely hood he may never accomplish.

Ons: Friendliness, cleverness, Charm, Soft Skin, Large breasts. Romance as well as Casualness, (He likes sex, it distracts from what happened well enough. He also likes making love.) Anal, Light Blood Play, Rough Sex, Oral play (Giving Receiving) Lot's of foreplay, Servicing him (Breast jobs, hand jobs, foot jobs etc) Multiple Partners, MMF, FFM, Two girl's going down on him .

Offs: Typical dark and gross stuff.

NSFW (Though imagine longer hair of coarse.)

Not really, since selections have yet to be made.  Feel free to throw your pitch!

[Prosak]

A Cleric or a Rogue would probably be cool if you want to do a more supportive role for a party. Rogues get a lot of skill points which is great for that regard, as well as trap checking. (Though, generally in my experience Gm's don't throw many trap's or locked doors towards players that do not have a rogue or capable Bard in the party. So if there is not a rogue I am not to concerned about that.) And then Clerics make for great magical support with their holy magic. And no not heal bots, cleric's are so much more powerful then people give them credit for !!! Clerics can be just so op sometimes in my opinion.

Im personally making a fighter for now, but after level 2 I will stop being a fighter and become a lvl 1 Bard. (Provided I am chosen.) Which would allow me to proceed to try and fill the gaps where we need them. As Bards are more so, Knowledge focused support/fill.

[Bibliophilia]

I've got a few little things left on Elisa, but she's finished for the most part.  I'm looking forward to the first time someone walks up on her staring intently at the maggot-infested entrails of a dead elk.

[Prosak]

Lol, we will see who appears the most insane my dear.  We shall see.

[Krys]

Hmm, I think Eirian might fit in well, for the adventuring part. Might be rejected due to lack of smut but yeah.  Concerning class, I'm thinking about making her an empiricist investigator, maybe starting with a one level swashbuckler dip to improve her survivability.

Statblock

[SIZE=+1]Eirian Avenstar[/SIZE]
Female CG Half-Elf Inspired Blade Swashbuckler, Level 1, Init 5, HP 11/11, Speed 
AC 16, Touch 13, Flat-footed 13, CMD 13, Fort 1, Ref 5, Will 0, CMB 0, Base Attack Bonus 1   
  Rapier 5 (1d6+3, 18–20/×2)
  Lamellar Cuirass,   Buckler (+2 Armor, +1 Shield, +3 Dex)
Abilities Str 8, Dex 16, Con 12, Int 18, Wis 10, Cha 10
Skills Acrobatics +6/+7, Appraise +4, Bluff +0/+4, Craft (Alchemy) +8, Diplomacy +4/+8, Disable Device +3/+4, Linguistics +5, Perception +9, Profession (Merchant) +4, Sense Motive +4
Condition None

That's an old version of the 1st lvl dip. Given that myth-weavers somehow has eaten my sheet though, I'll have to redo her. Main class will be empiricist Investigator (or any other class you gusy can suggest to build a merchant princess / artificer).

[Chulanowa]

I'm going to be going with either a

barbarian

or a

skald

or

[Argent Adonis]

Throwing in my pitch (probably a W.I.P.):

Name: Harkon Stormknife
Age: 120 (looks early 20's)
Gender: Male
Alignment: CG
Race: Dhamphir (Vetala-born)
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Deity: Gorum

Physical: Tall and powerfully built, Harkon appears as physically imposing as any storied warrior of the north, with pale grey eyes that gleam with a sort of reckless intellect from beneath the dark mop of his hair, though his actual features are somewhat softer and less square than the typical Ulfen.  Unlike the typical Ulfen, the black sword he carries is definitely not of Ulfen origin.
Personality: Despite his somewhat gruff appearance and manners, Harkon maintains an amiable disposition when dealing with others.  With a keen relish for strong drink and plentiful food, he affects an Ulfen personality even though it's clear that his roots lie in distant Taldor, though he bears the name of a northman.  With the exception of his sword and family ring, he has an easy come, easy go attitude to whatever comes his way in life.

In 2 Sentences: A mysterious man on a journey with an unknown destination to seek out the answers his family can't provide him with, and restoring his name.  A scholar by temperament, but a warrior by necessity.

Ons: Friendly companions, the great open wilds, forgotten temples and ruins, inclement weather and storms.  Most of my sexual ons and offs can be found in my signature.
Offs: The usual suspects; scat, watersports, sexual torture and mutilation.  Sugar sweet fairy tales.

[Chulanowa]

Waterspores, huh? Like algae? 

[Argent Adonis]

Lol!  Didn't notice that.  Fixed now

[Quasar]

Cool, some more entrants!  Welcome Argent Adonis.

Seems like the manly man concept fell through Chul

Who said anything about a manly man? I said Brawny McBeatface. Though I do have a bishounen Conan in a folder, if you'd rather...? 

[Bibliophilia]

My changeling can cling to a woman's leg as well as a dude's.  -giggles.-

[Quasar]

Ha!  Point taken!  The pictures are cool, but now I'm also curious just to see what a bishonen Conan might look like, lol

[Prosak]

I'm going to be going with either a

barbarian

or a

skald

or

I think a skald sounds really cool and unique. :) .

[Hexed]

My usual group plays a little lose with some rulings so just want to check in.

Winter witch archetype and cartomancer archetype for the witch class can't be used together because the winter witch 'changes' the familiar ability even though it's just a restriction on what can be taken and not an actual change right?

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/witch/archetypes/paizo-witch-archetypes/cartomancer-witch-archetype/

Edits!

Do you have any problem with the paizo changeling alternate racial traits being used?
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/other-races/uncommon-races/arg-changeling
Mist child and witchborn in particular?

[clonkertink]

Oh, yes, I should check in on alternate racial traits too. Right now Howling Wind's basically swapped everything out. I'm not dead set on the changes but Desert Runner suits the setting quite well, as it confers a bonus to fort saves against cold environments, as well as hot ones.

[Chulanowa]

Ha!  Point taken!  The pictures are cool, but now I'm also curious just to see what a bishonen Conan might look like, lol

He looks like this!

[ChaoticSky]

Question! Are we allowed to submit multiple characters?
