Arabesu's Eyes of the Lich Queen, w/ Boons! - OOC

[renau1g]

Unless we want to use all of Fenwicks 2nd level spells

 

[Shayuri]

Here's a draft of what I have so far.

Boon item is taking me longer than I thought. The concept is easy enough. A siberys dragonshard he uses as a holy symbol, and that has abilities he can draw on. I'm thinking of giving it spell likes based on the powers of dragonmarks...but more likely it'll be static buffs...

And somewhere there's an item that'll overcome Light Sensitivity...I think it's in Races of the Dragon. I'll need those too...

You've got 4k to buy other gear, you definitely want some armor, and lots of antitoxin/lesser restoration potions. its lvl 1 on the pali spell list so they only cost 50g each. Im a also a firm believer in the moving wall strategy carry a shield while travelling then drop it if you want to get into melee.

 

[Shayuri]

Oh, I shan't be doing a wall strategy of any kind. For one thing, I'll be avoiding melee like the plague. For another, I have a crossbow...two-handed shootin'. I only even have a buckler for defense when I'm casting spells.

Kobold, ya know. This isn't a stalwart combat cleric who's gonna be shouting wrathfully and smiting with a mace and full plate. It's a stalwart support cleric who will be yipping wrathfully and scampering away when something gets too close.

 

[moritheil]

In that case, is there any reason for choosing cleric over cloistered cleric, healer, shaman, or shugenja?

 

[Shayuri]

I don't have any books with a Healer or Shaman class.

There's Spirit Shaman, but I don't like it very much.

Shujenja doesn't feel like the right flavor to me.

Plus, even if I won't be very GOOD at turning undead, it'd be nice to have the option.

Especially with those action die that we are granted. Those would help in the areas that you aren't as proficient in.

Well, Healer is from Miniatures . . . it isn't very popular.

My OA is crying.

Certainly there's nothing wrong with the cleric, I just tend to think in terms of myriad options.

 

[Shayuri]

Oh I like options too!

I wasn't rejecting you out of hand.

I'd already looked at several options, like druid, favored soul, shujenja...

Wasn't quite right for what I had in mind though.

I was just thinking that shaman (from OA) and cloistered cleric (UA) are both more lightly armored clerics that deemphasize front-line combat in favor of more skills or feats. Thematically, I usually take them in lieu of standard cleric in cases where I am building a divine caster that is not reliant on heavy armor and a weapon.

By the way, about shugenja - the flavor in C Div utterly sucks. You really ought to look at them in the original AED materials if you want to get a feel for what the class is supposed to be like. The mechanics aren't too hot either, but what I think is the biggest turnoff is the way the flavor didn't get transferred. They are basically sorcerer, priest, shaman, and negotiator all rolled into one.
