    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    I'm the only one posting in 2 days... What happened? Are we assuming NarlethDrider and GoodKingJay are gone for good? Aside from a few backstory details, I'm ready to play!

    Planescape!

    This game is closed, I'm guessing? If you have any need for an alternate, I'd be more than happy to join in. I ate, slept and breathed Planescape from its release until it died. Without a doubt the best setting ever. It's a shame WoTC is just sticking with Tolkien-based setting for 3rd...

    Ray... would you consider the battle claw a bladed weapon for purposes of the mageblade's athame?

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Some good ideas Gorak. Alternately, some sort of magical disease or curse could exist in the area around our village, which has made a segment of the population ill over the years. Some of them learned to turn to the mojh as a result. Perhaps whatever caused our illness is something the...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Gorak. You might want to go over your skills again. Mojh get a racial bonus to knowledge-runes, not spellcraft. Probably better for you anyway. As far as our backgrounds are concerned, let's say we lived in a small village along the southern banks of the Ghostwash called "Laris." The town...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    I've been toying with the idea of changing my character to a mageblade 3. No matter what I do, I plan on having my character 100% finished by tomorrow evening (EST). By the way, it looks like there are only 6 PCs in the Rogue's Gallery (minus Ray's example). Aren't there 8 players? Where...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Gorak. I like the stuff you have down for backstory. I'm still wading through the Diamond Throne, but it looks like we could just make up a town and place it somewhere within the giant dominated areas. If we faked our deaths, I'd imagine that we had help from the mojh spellcasters that aided...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Thanks. I might end up throwing my disguise kit and forgery gear in there. I got a friend to e-mail me his Diamond Throne netbook (I have a hard copy on order from Amazon, so I'm sure Monte won't mind). I'll be looking at that tonight for ideas. Any suggestions you have for backstory are, of...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Item Suggestions I've got over 1100 gp burning a hole in my pocket... if anyone has the Diamond Throne book or the Books of Eldritch Might, I'd greatly appreciate any item suggestions for my mojh akashic 2/unfettered 1

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Yeah... I think when everyone saw that our DM was going to focus his game on solving mysteries and character interaction, "akashic" popped into everyone's head.

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Jay... just to warn you there are already 3 characters with akashic levels. I happen to be an akashic/unfettered. Feel free to make an akashic, but check over the other PCs first to make sure you're concept differs to some degree. Alternately, it looks like there are races and classes that...

    (OOC:/FULL) Strands of the Past

    If you are making room for a seventh (assuming Hodag is the 6th), I'd like to join. If someone drops out, I could also be an alternate. Let me know Narleth. -Mark

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Tychus... It looks like some overlap is going to inevitable, but I second what FaenFriend said. As akashics, we should make an effort to make sure our PCs really excel at a couple of skills that everyone else is no better than "pretty good" at. You might want to take a look at my mojh akashic...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    I like the characters so far. FaenFriend made the point that some of the skills we're taking are repeatedly seen from PC to PC. Because of the size of the party, it might be wise to go through and make sure we have at least one PC who excels at any skill. Of course, many skills are useful if...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Some more good ideas Gorak. I should have my character posted pretty soon. I agree on the starting age issue. It seems to me that a mojh should be able to have a starting age as young as any human's starting age, for obvious reason. Early 20's seems to fit our backstory better.

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    FaenFriend.... I was looking over your character. I didn't look too carefully, but I did notice that you forgot about synergy bonuses on your skill bonuses. For example, the fact that you have 5 or more ranks in tumble means you get a +2 on balance check. Go through the skills section and...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Sounds cool Gorak. I really like the congenital disease idea. I'll split the difference of my two ideas and go for a mojh akashic, possibly with mojh or runethane class levels as well. To add a little flavor, let's say that our characters faced some opposition, especially from the giant...

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    I forget to mention... I have to work quite a bit the next couple of days. I'll try to get my character in soon but it might be 2 days or so.

    [OOC] Life in Vein - Recruiting Replacement Player!

    Well, so much for my planned mojh runethane. I'd hate to have two of the same race/class combo unless you have a roleplaying idea for it, Gorak. Just so everyone knows, now I'm working on a loresong akashic.
