renau1g's Fort Belurian Adventure [Pathfinder] - OOC

renau1g

First Post
Fort Belurian is in trouble, contact hasn't been heard from their outpost on the island of Chult in weeks. It is too dangerous a place for regular scouts to travel to, despite the presence of the Fort.

The Flaming Fists (Flaming Fist - Forgotten Realms Wiki, your guide to everything Forgotten Realms) have put out a call for an adventuring company to aid them in this matter. Prospective applicants need to apply to Duke Eltan in Baldur's Gate. Payment includes a membership into the Fists, the largest and most powerful mercenary company in Faerun.

PCs: I need 4 more, Leif has been selected, he's playing a sorceror
Level: 8
World: Faerun (Forgotten Realms)
Point Buy: 25 points [Pathfinder Rules pg.5]
Wealth: By level according to DMG (27k), no item worth more than 25% of the gold (exception is a +2 weapon)
HP: Max 1st, 3/4 after
Rules: I'll be using the Pathfinder Ruleset, Beta version.
Acceptable Sources: Pathfinder Rules, Beta Version + Web Enhancement

House Rules (Borrowed from Rhun & Creamsteak, Thanks Guys!)
Feats
- Dodge: The dodge feat grants a flat +1 dodge bonus to armor class.
- Improved Toughness: Improved toughness can replace toughness anywhere that toughness is required as a prerequisite.
- Intimidate: A character can substitute his STR bonus for his CHA bonus on Intimidate checks, if appropriate. For example, a powerful brute character towering over a lesser character, or lifting him by the neck with a single arm, would be able to apply their STR bonus to an Intimidate check instead of CHA.

Spell Components
All casters automatically gain the feat Eschew Material Components when they take their first level in a spell-using class.

Healing
When rolling dice to determine amount of healing from a curative spell, all 1s should be rerolled.

Crafting
I'm not feeling pre-game crafting, as it would give spellcasters an advantage at this higher level. You can state that you craft something for flavour purposes, but the cost is still the same as listed in the Beta Release.

I think that's it. Let me know if you have any questions.

Current Cast:
Leif - Sorceror
Scott DeWar - Fighter or Ranger
Rhun - Fighter/Rogue MC
Mowgli - Cleric/
BigEye - Ranger (ranged-focused) - ended up Kraken food
Shayuri - TBD - Most likely Druid - player withdrawn
Scotley - the big splash

I am thinking either a straight class fighter or ranger here, May i join?

and a question: Is that 32 points pathfinder or 3.5?
 


I'd like to play...after all, I always loved the Flaming Fist. But I'm unfamiliar with the Pathfinder rules. I know they are similar; is there a download for them?

I too would probably want to play a tank type PC, or maybe warrior/skillmonkey. I'm playing enough casters at the moment.

Sounds fair, Leif's got some of the spellcasting covered.

The rules are pretty similar, with only a few exceptions, that seem to improve a lot of the 3.5e related problems with lower level squishyness, but still maintains a sense of danger.
 

Alright! Got me two good meat shields, already! Thanks, everyone! Especially renau1g!

Any other threads for this game started yet? *shrug*
 

Yeah, I've got a dwarven Rogue/Fighter that I think I could update that would be perfect for this game...let me work on him.
 

Whoops, good catch! I've corrected the PB amount, I think we can squeeze you in here Mr. DeWar

at 250+ lbs that will be a tight squeeze!

btw, I am thinking a straight class fighter, front line type.

he is the brother of a member of the flaming fists mercenaries and his brother was on the Isle that has been incommunicado. therefore he is wanting to know the fate of his brother. does that sound ok?
