you have players like that and my 5 page backstories get a nod and then have no bearing on the campaign at all. it's enough to make me cry.

i had a character who was really high strung. his catch phrase was "blooming impressive!" and he said bloody alot. in the midst of a really tough fight, he combined the two into the word blooding (pronounced blue ding). it's just a little stupid slip of the tongue but i still take flak from...

driven yes, but looking for the quickest way to power. that would be a sign of a chaotic streak, not wanting to take his time and do things right. Neutral seems fine to me GK.

crothian has added more backstory to the rogues gallery post kai lord. it's some good stuff. good dm's seem to be the ones who can create motivations for both the mundane characters and the oddballs. i allways had trouble relating to the farmer who lives in cormyr but my villians often had...

finally finished mine. it's called the "jollystyle" paladin. it's the character from the campaign i am currently involved in and a brief (LOL, hey it's a 6 month twice a week campaign) description of the story and the character's exploits.

one of his companions got him raised but the magic was gone, as was the suicidal streak. he found a new god, one of protection, the one he believed he would have chosen, given the choice in the first place. he died again and got reincarnated as a bear, i took him out of the campaign. he got...

and you are thinking so what, go on a quest, get the restoration spell and carry on with your life right? well, i didn't see it that way, nathaniel birch at this point became a reckless, some would say mad warrior against the forces of evil. time after time he would charge blindly into battle...

side story: the local noble who killed the king had in fact been controlled by a body jumping demon (like in fallen, the densel washington movie) it was discovered that the only way to kill such a creature was to trap it inside some sort of "storm guy" in a dream given to the party's other...

while everyone is celebrating, a large force of orcs is found to be massing in the forrest east of dartmoor (a real place somewhere in brittian by the way) and before a force can be dispatched, they take over the town. with nate leading the peasants who were able to escape the town, and 50...

on to the meat of the story. the hermit was killed and nate never found his killers for certian. one day some odd characters came to town. a group of three men who had a way about them that led nate to believe they were part of a millitary force, and an old man they seemed to be following...

for a few years, little happened in dartmoor worth mentioning and nathaniel birch did a fine job as constable. he became the person people would take their disputes to if they didn't want to involve the official courts of the land. he was seen as an impartial judge by the townsfolk because they...

i'm actually not done yet. the boards tend to cut me off if i try to post a long one all at once. i'll just throw his whole story thus far here and you'll see why he's my favorite paladin i've done. cliched characters are often the best ones, all the good character concepts when broken down into...

now as a preperatory introduction let me say that i am horrible at playing paladins. my characters tend to have a bit of a darker edge to them, so paladins played by me have a tendency to multiclass quickly or lose their paladinhood within the first two sessions. this is the best paladin...

you see? nobody comes here. i guess while i'm here i'll post one or more of my favorite characters. once again, cudos to you and your excellent character.

first level feats: dodge, mind over body. the rest would be to his personal style. item creation tends to stunt power growth and you are not going to be much of a caster for a long time. i would usually go with the defensive feats and ones related to specific weapons. work your way to...

the problem with the rogues gallery crothian, is that it ended up having 20 characters that seemed less then inspired for every interesting one. i quit visiting it after reading about 5 "son of a god" characters awhile back on page 1. now before anyone jumps on me, my current character is a...

yes, the only time the casting progression changes is when you are at lev 21 in one class/casting style. since you are only lev 12 caster, you continue to get spells as normal.

first off thanks for not hijacking my thread kai lord. second, that is the only decent player character backstory for an oozemaster i have ever read or heard. third: no, nobody reads the rogues gallery forum. PEACE!

the most hated/beloved aspect of 3e is clearly the prestige class. when well done they can seem like things crafted by the minds of geniuses. when poorly done they can infuriate dm's and those less interested in pure killing and hardcore powergamers alike. i'm not particularly interested...

this is the only gaming site i frequent. the only other site i go to regularly is theonion.com. other then that, i just share files with winmx and check my e-mail unless there is something specific i am looking for. as long as i was told about the name change, i would probably still come here...
