Swords, Sex and Sorcery (D20 casting call)

DrStein said:

Haven't written here in a long-ass time. And though I think it would be better if we just RPed and skipped the dice rolls, I'd be game for it. I'm thinking I'd be a rogue, the debonair swashbuckling kind.

Led_Astray said:

I might well be interested too.

Since somebody has already called dibs on the swashbuckling rogue, then I'd probably go with the archetypical fighter.

Hello there!

I would be interested in playing along if you guys would have me. I'm a sucker for these kinds of threads.

Well, well, well, look what the kitten brough

I´m up for this if you´ll have me aboard. What can we expect in terms of rules and party balance?

So here's the concept I'm knocking around.

Scully is a handsome but disheveled thief and ne'er-do-well. He grew up in the slums of a large seaport city and soon found he was naturally faster and more agile than the other children. He developed a reputation as a daredevil, which may be what led to his ego. Over the years, he turned to petty theft to get by and was eventually noticed and recruited by a local thieves' guild.

Haven't really thought of what incited him to go adventuring just yet, but I kind of like the idea of playing a cocky character who isn't as funny as he thinks he is.

Led_Astray said:

Any thoughts as to level, available races, and rules expansions?

I only have access to the online SRD, mind you, so I may need some hep with the mechanics of character creation, if we are sticking to the rules.

Led_Astray said:

With level 4, I'm thinking fighter-cleric, a big red-haired fellowwith a booming laugh and a lust for life, equally happy on the field of battle or hoisting flagons in the tavern.

edit - having just read up a bit, an Asterion sounds like fun if you are allowing them.

Are you planning to use the deities in the SRD or do you have your own ideas?

DrStein said:

Okay, so with Scully I'm thinking that the colony expedition was a fortunate matter of timing as he pissed off the guildmaster by refusing to kill a rival. Scully's a lot of things, but he's not a murderer. Unfortunately, this meant he was dead meat. He spent a week in hiding before a friend giving him shelter told him about the expedition. Scully put on a disguise, picked a few pockets to gather together the money to leave, hopped aboard the airship and never looked back.

And I'll have character creation stuff up later tonight, but the basics are 4th level, 6k gold, 35 point buy (starting from 8s).

Locastor said:

Starting from 8s shifts everything down 2? ie:

8 (0)
9 (1)
10 (2)
11 (3)
12 (5)
13 (7)
14 (10)
15 (13)
16 (17)
17 (21)

Or am I confused?

kittenofdeath said:

All skills start at 8, each point costs only one point, a PC is a paragon of his or her kind, so I don't like the idea of scaling stats during pointbuy. This number system better emulates a slightly above average 4 dice stat roll, the average roll on a die is 3.5, add in the 4th die and its pretty easy to consistently roll something between 12-14, 35 points is just under all 14s.

Ok sounds good!

Got room for a somewhat naive, but very enthusiastic novice Paladin who's somewhat bewildered and embarrassed by all these steaming hot and sexy female teammates who keep flaunting their tight bodies and pervy minds at him?

Taking very much after the Sun Goddess he lives his life for, Xarkl is a little darker of skin than your typical Aloran. Orphaned as a result of the vicious war which has gripped the land for so long, the tiny Southern infant was taken in by the Elves of the Desert Shrine of the Sun, and raised by the gentle priestesses there. Under their quiet tutelage, Xarkl quickly learned the language and culture of his adoptive guardians, with a careful emphasis on the fabled Alta Anar, the Ray of The Dawning Sun, the rare giant curved scimitar of the Elven Sarenraen paladins. Additionally, he displayed a shocking aptitude in the crafting of all manner of spun-sugar confections and iced desserts as sacred offerings, much to the delight of many of the novice acolytes, and, truth be told, the Grand Abbess herself.

Xarkl is a loyal and steadfast companion in both travel and battle, and though his slender frame gives some hint as to his nimble movements, it utterly conceals his raw physical strength. He is exceedingly humble and polite, and fairly quick-witted to boot. His greatest asset, of course, is his winning smile and boyish charm. Everyone who catches the merest glimpse of that cannot help but forgive him his obliviousness on matters as diverse as whether he's walking towards a spiked pit or hurtling headlong into an obvious goblin ambush.

Sadly, Xarkl's rapid ascent as a defender of the Temple he loves so much has suddenly collided with a tidal rush of strangeness. Lately, at the holy dawn service, he finds his gaze slipping from the Goddess' holy light blasting past the magnificent amber and topaz window to the shapely posteriors of the genuflecting priestesses. The giggles and blushing looks of the acolytes are starting to evoke a strange tightness in his throat, not to mention his breeches. The Abbess herself, nearly nine hundred years old but not looking a day past twenty-five, is starting to regard him with a weirdly predatory gaze. He'd probably be horrified to know that all the senior priestesses have made a habit of magically scrying into his ablutions, carefully recording the images of his supple young body on memory crystals. It is now very easy for them to look at him fully armoured, and know exactly how his uncut brown cock and lean buttocks sway beneath the steel plate.

Desperate to clear his head and regain his composure as a noble Paladin of Sarenrae, Xarkl has undertaken to receive the Abbess' permission to venture on a quest to the outside world. Greatly bemused, she has elected to indulge the Temple's favoured son, granting him leave to head off on his expedition, the wails of the acolytes notwithstanding. Hopefully, adventuring with a band of goodly folk of the land to fend off evil will keep him away from whatever it is that is filling him such peculiar new feelings.

Got a question for yah Kitten. Since you are using the Pathfinder rules here basically I was wondering how Gunslingers fit into your world (if at all). If they due what exactly is the level of firearms for the world too? I'm not sure how much access you have to the Pathfinder stuff. While on the computer the Pathfinder SRD is my well-used lover. They have the firearms section right here if you want to peruse it: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/firearms/

And Locastor, your PM's are turned off. :/
