Pathfinder - Small Incestuous Group of High Power PCs - Taking Applications

[indarkestknight]

I'm still interested, though I'd been hoping on more feedback on the idea.

Since the roles of father seem to be the most contested as far as males go, I'll probably go with brother or uncle, though if Stendarr would like me to switch it up, I can.

To reiterate, I'm strongly considering a human or possibly half-elven bard/ex-paladin (vindictive bastard), which would provide someone with full BAB.

The deadline for a basic character outline is 36 hours from the time of this post. If you need more time than that just let me know here or in a PM and you can get some extra time. Once again, I don't need characters fully fleshed out in terms of feats and items, but I do want the actual roleplaying side of them.

edit: and a quick question to stendarr  that just appeared to me:
magic items that grant enhancement boni will have to be worn a week, how do you treat things like sleeping, bathing... sleeping with each other etc for that. is taking those things off for a short amount of time acceptable or do they have to be worn all the time to grant their effect?

Ya taking them off for a short while is fine. It would be a little silly otherwise. If something comes up where it matters I'll handle it on a case by case basis.

@Stendarr; I would love the hat to be an old version of the Jingasa that was a +1 luck to AC since he is going to have the fate's favored trait... pleeasse!!

In the spirit of high power, you can go for it. I can't seem to find the actual text for the old one. I know it had a luck bonus to AC, which is fine, but how often did it prevent crits? I might want to change that.

Or, if you want a nice synergy of high wis and still want an arcane caster, think about empyrial sorcerer bloodline. Not sure how well stendarr reacts to a 6th level + 9th level caster tho.
I'd go ranger for ranged or alchemist for meelee built. Or hunter for a buckload of versatility. those are my suggestions.

9th + 6th caster is fine, especially if you're not power gaming really hard (not that I dislike power gaming).

And I think given the unusual nature of the campaign it would be fair to kind of hand wave some of the alignment based restrictions right? It wouldn't make sense to spend all that time making two level 8 characters only to have one of them tossed out because the story demands it.

I'll probably add something to the note about allignment. It's totally fine to stretch alignment a bit for this campaign. Especially in terms of class requirements.

OLD Description
This conical iron jingasa, or war hat, grants the wearer a +1 luck bonus to AC. Once per day when struck by a critical hit or sneak attack, the wearer can spend an immediate action to negate the critical hit or sneak attack (similar to the fortification armor special ability, but without requiring a roll). The damage is instead rolled normally.

NEW Description
This conical iron jingasa, or war hat, grants the wearer a +1 deflection bonus to AC. When struck by a critical hit or sneak attack, the wearer can spend an immediate action to negate the critical hit or sneak attack (similar to the fortification armor special ability, but without requiring a roll). The damage is instead rolled normally. This ability functions only once, though the jingasa continues to grant its deflection bonus even after the other ability is expended.

Lowkey, this is one of the erratas that i really can't stand. It's pretty much useless. It's only there for the immediate action to negate a crit or sneak attack. But that's 5k gold for just one use, then you gotta spend it again.

I think they just murdered it into unplayability because people were getting sick of it. The old version is fine for this campaign though.

do mind if the if it is a battered hat like the image instead of the 'conical iron jingasa'?

I am going to have to withdraw from this... I am being called out of town and have to leave early tomorrow. I had planned on getting everything done tonight and tomorrow but now I do not have the time and i have barely gotten everything laid out and planned!

Good luck and have fun!

Oh no! Sorry to see you go.

I'm afraid I'm unlikely to make the deadline, myself.  I do wish everyone the best of luck and hope that whoever gets chosen all have plenty of fun, though.

You too!

I have picked my players. Those I picked should have recieved a PM. If anyone else is still interested send me a PM and I'll put you on a waiting list. Thank you for your participation everybody.
