Wildwood Red in Tooth and Claw [OOC]

[Voadam]

Also, the reason I was thinking of the mineral warrior template was because I wanted something that made him tougher to reflect his background of countless fights. Problem is, most templates turn you into some weird creature, which is not my intention. got any ideas?

Just noticed this edited part. Torn Asunder has a few combat oriented templates that don't make you freaky IIRC, I'd have to look it up. I'll look in BoTD as well. I'll think a little more on it.

I feel a little left-out not Gestalting, but character concept/background always make up for it to me. I should read the IC posts to get a feel for how this is going to run...

20 dex versus gestalt. choices, choices.

Btw, looked over your sheet again, tieflings are outsiders [native] not humanoids. Although it is wierd that humans with a touch of planar blood are not affected by human specific stuff.

 

[Pyrex]

Outsider blood is strong stuff.

Firblains story. I like the idea of him being picked by this hunter deity and dropped in.


[sblock]

Firblain was never looking for a fight, but fights always seem to find him. Even when he was
just a grau hiding under his mothers apron, the family dogs would nip and bite at him.
When the clan bully had a bad day, it was always Firblain that he ran into. He didn't fight
back though. Not in the beginning. When he'd come home and his father'd ask him where the
bruises came from, he lied and said he tripped. He could tell that his father didn't believe
him, but he allowed his son to keep his story. What good is a boy that you have to force to
fight for himself?

Growing up with the resentment of his father, and the attentions of the bullies, his one
refuge was his mother. Without questioning him, she cared for and patched him up when he came home bruised and bleeding. Without a word, she showed him her love for him.

When the news came, he was in the mines. The workers grabbed picks and axes and ran back towards the settled caverns. It had not been a battle; it was a slaughter. Bodies of women and children lay hacked apart, viciously torn asunder by small hands with small weapons. The cavern was filled with the shouts of pain and the cries of anguish as families were reunited.

Firblain found her by the children. She had tried to protect them. Sinking down to the ground, he cradled his mother in his arms. Silent tears flowed down his cheeks. Placing her down, he gently laid her cloak over her. Turning aside, he went into his house. Grabbing his fathers waraxe from above the mantle, he left the empty house and ran to join his fellow workers.

At the first sight of the goblins, the years of repressed anger was released into the
creatures skull, shattering it. A righteous fury overtook him, and he slew all that he could
find.


Years pass.


After that battle, he could never let a challenge go unanswered. The bullies learned quick,
and the news spread faster of this dwarve that could survive any fight. The day he quit the
mines to go out on his own, his father presented him the same waraxe. Without a word, he took it and left.

Outsider [Native], eh? I guess I'll have to brush up on my outsider knowledge...

Edit: Meh, not much to worry about. Just affected by outsider stuff and not by humanoid stuff. *Shrug* Works for me.

Also, Voadam, are you familiar at all with the Tempest PrC from Complete Adv? I know you listed it as a source that you wouldn't accept, but it seems to be a fairly widely-known one, and I was just wondering for future reference. I'm not certain if it's hosted by Wizards has an excerpt for it or not...I suppose I can check...

Edit edit: Drat, can't find anything. I'm supposing it's a no, then? Hehehe.

 

[Voidrazor]

I could send a PDF of the tempest PrC if that would be helpful. Mind you, 7th level is a looong way away.

 

[Pyrex]

Is there an RG thread where we should be posting our PC's or should we continue posting them here?

(mine's nearly done)

Edit: Nevermind. Found it.

 

[Mithran]

Things keep getting in the way of my creating my character. Currently I feel kind of sick and have a terrible headache. So I'm going to go ahead and bow out so you guys can get on with playing sooner.
