Anything But Normal, Sailing the Endless Falls

Good God, it sounds even worse when you put it that way.

But yeah, I was kinda wondering why nobody else was bothered by the fact that you're using blasphemous magic from beyond the veil for both your armor and weapons. Particularly the super-genius nereid who apparently knows everything under the arcana heading. Is there something she's not telling us? :uhoh:

Its probably due to the fact that I didn't get the item descriptions up until after most everyone completed their opinions. Although even with Nissa's arcane knowledge, there's a good chance she wouldn't know about chaositech. the stuff is from another plane, is not considered magic as such, and probably hasn't been seen in Endless Falls before.

I thought I had pretty good suggestions for an occupational name. I basically hunt people down in one of a variety of ways and harry them with curses, spells, and skills until they do themselves in. A sort of manipulator, though of fate, not people.

Huh, I was under the impression that chaositech was pretty obviously eeevil. And certainly a routine detect magic would set off alarm bells.
 

Technically... no. Chaositech items don't radiate magic. At all. And while they're not intrinsically evil, the goal of the Lords of Chaos is the distruction of all.

Anyway, as Voidrazor said, his chaositech stuff is from another plane, and it's brand-spankin'-new in the Endless Falls. No one has seen it before, ever. No one native to the Endless Falls, and I believe that's everyone save Ooboobooboo, has ever seen anything like it before.

On a different note, how close are people to being done with their characters? Are there any further questions I need to answer that I may have overlooked? I think we can start on Thursday or Friday, if everyone has their characters squared away.
 

I feel pretty good about Trebuchet. As long as there's no bald patches that need shining where others are concerned (ie - if anyone has questions/issues, now's the time :)), I think he's ready to go.

Huh, didn't know that (don't own the book). That's too bad, I rather liked the tension of having a basically innocent character using alarmingly non-innocent items. And I guess Oobobooboo isn't smart enough to accidentally-on-purpose spill the beans about the items. Actually, he wasn't even conscious yet when the items were created and dumped from Tenochtitlan, along with Oobobooboo himself. Oh well.

If I get an item from you, then I'm not finished, otherwise I am :)

I still haven't seen a better name than hound. It's job title specific though, and that's a hard one to spot for many of you.

And I think you're seeing more conotations into Empath than I'm talking about RA. An Empath is simply someone good at knowing another's feelings/emotions and comunicating. If you can think of a better I'd consider it, but Empath seems about right, particularly for a beguiler.

Bront--check the first post on this page for your item, whatever it may be :)

For Nissa, Diplomat might work or Negotiator (her Diplomacy is almost three times as high as Sense Motive). If he calls her Seer or Prophetess, it will make her ridiculously happy, but it isn't really all too accurate.

I'm good to go whenever :) As to the items--yup, I figured they were really alien and unknown to Nissa as well in my initial reaction, though I don't have the book.

Use Courser, then. That's Courser, not Curser, I spelled it correctly in the earlier post (it looked like you misread it). It's a name for a dog that hunts by sight, so at least it's a "job title." A Hound is a type of breed as much as it is a canine occupation, and Courser is more specific. And sounds cooler. I still think Harrier probably fits the best, though, and it's actually used for hunting dogs as well (and is, again, a specific "job title" and not a breed). Heck, just plain "Hunter" would work, since it is basically what I do - hunt people down and bring them bad luck.
