I've updated Dj'hân's character writeup. I got to say, throughout all the PBP games in which I've participated on these boards, I think I've only ever gotten to level up a character once or perhaps twice. Most games simply don't endure long enough for it to happen reliably. Here's to hoping it becomes something of a recurring event in this game.

With the way that IC has been rolling for me lately, by all means, go ahead and roll for me.

Also would it be ok if I possibly swapped burning hands out for something else, I realize in retrospect it hasn't been a very useful choice.

I was lucky that way that I play in Four Lands by JAlexander. leveled character from 10th to 13th, another from 5th to 6th (with death in between)

Actualy, I just leveled in another two games woo hoo! But one seems to be stalling. Just lucky I guess.

Hear, hear for this game

Oni:

Yeah, no worries on the spell swap. I don't recall you ever using it anyway.

Thanks, guys. I've managed to take the characters from 1st to 3rd level so far in Romance of the River Kingdoms, so there's hope for more advances. Although hoping to reach the end of this adventure path may be an ambitious dream, I at least hope to get to finish Edge of Anarchy. Seeing Hewligan's Runelords game working its way through the Skinsaw Murders gives me hope that it can be done...

I'm certainly looking forward to 3rd level in this campaign.

Might that be the seemingly stillborn Path of Madness campaign you're referring to?

No, I checked it, but no, I'm refering to hellrazor's Death of the Dragons. He seems to have some connection trouble...or maybe he just got a girlfriend who's not so hot on gaming? :P

And I look forward to 3rd level too, the channeling starts for some chill touchy or shocking graspy touches of Deathwail

Does UMD in pathfinder functions same as in 'core rules'? If so, don't forget +2 bonus for already activated wand/item

I thought that was only with the "activate blindly" use, although it makes sense for other options.

Oni: Assuming you're going for another level of sorcerer, I rolled a 2 for hit points.

By the way, is anyone interested in joining my Romance of thw River Kingdoms campaign? I've had two players drop off the boards recently, leaving it a bit sparsely populated!

Does that include any con bonus or just the flat roll?

And out of curiosity what mix of classes do you have/what do you need more of?

Oni - that was just the roll. Add Con bonus and favoured class bonus (if desired).

Erm... What have we got in RRK at the moment? A human paladin (of beauty) with a level of water spirit bloodline, and an eagle shapeshifter sorcerer specialising in fire magics. The players we have recently lost were playing fairly similar characters, both nature types. One a baboon shapeshifter druid (with all manner of Unearthed Arcana variants applied). Quite an all-rounder really. The other, a salsham'ai (small arboreal folk) shaman - the healer and sage. So, the door is open to anything really.

I don't know Swordsage, but it sounds like it would fit. Let me know further details.

HD d8; 3/4 BAB; Good Will and Refl saves;
Has access to more disciplines then other classes, but is not full BAB and has slowest recovery method.

Class features:
Quick to Act - bonus to initiative +1 1st, +2 5th level
Discipline Focus (weapon focus for weapons of discipline chosen) - in my case Shadow Hand
AC bonus - add WIS to AC similar to monk
Discipline focus (insightul strike) - add WIS to damage when executing strike from chosen discipline

Shadow Hand weapons: dagger, sai, shortsword, spiked chain, siangham and unarmed strike. Key skill : Hide;

Diamond mind weapons: Bastard sword/Katana, rapier, shortspear and trident; Key skill: Concentration

general build would revolve around assassins stance and shadow disciplines , with diamond mind as secondary.

Class build: simple Swordsage. Assassins stance will be combat default

Stances:
Flames blessings
Assassins Stance
Giant Killing Stance

MAneuvers:
1st level
Sapphire Nightmare Blade (or Shadow strike tehnique), Counter charge, Stone Bones,

2nd level
fire reposte, clever positioning, Cloak of deception, shadow jaunt,

3rd level
drain vitality (may replace this one, doesn't fit nature loving race), shadow garrote, mind over body


He can ready 6 of these at any time.

Oni, do you have charm person or similar spell available? We could use it about right now.

I'm afraid not, just my own personal charisma and likability.
I was considering replacing Burning Hands with it though.

On that note, sorry I'm being slow, I'll try to update my character sheet tomorrow.
[edit: updated char sheet.]

Neurotic:

Regarding swordsage, etc., I don't have BO9S so you'll have to give me all the details of stances etc., but I'm happy to try it out. I assume it works a bit like the ritual warrior from Arcana Evolved, in that the stances and maneuvres are resources that get used up in a similar fashion to spells, i.e. you have a certain number per day of each power level that you can use as and when.

Can we take any further discussion of Romance of the River Kingdoms to the OOC thread for that game, though (see my sig.).

Just wondering if Neurotic is going to chime in in the IC thread; it's been nearly a week since his last post.

I would Ambrus, but there is realy nothing to say. He's guarding the guards, looking lean and mean killing machine. Edmond tried his best in interrogation and gathering info he is not realy sociable type and he does not want to hurt these idiots

Rule question: is it possible to execute something that requires standard action as part of full attack?
