Message: <blockquote data-quote="John Q. Mayhem" data-source="post: 1938841" data-attributes="member: 13525">I'm using Monte Cook's alignment system from the BoHM, DanMcS' weapons system, EoM[R] and Lyceian Arcana, and a few house rules (note Orrin's Perform skill). Ability increases every even level, feats every odd level. If you have 1/2 Str bonus for some reason (like off-hand wielding) the minimum decrease in damage is -1; likewise, two-handed wielding gives you a minimum of +1 damage. I use a class bonus to defense based on d20 Modern. gp are as valuable as pp usually are; sp are the "base" coinage, equivalent to normal D&D gp. Most expensive purchases are conducted in gp. I use AUs Ambidexterity/TWF rules.Orrin Karlsson, Exalten 4 (my DMPC)Hit Dice:4d6+8 (25)Initiative: +4Speed: 30 ft.Armor Class: 18 (+4 Dex, +3 Magnificent Defense, +1 class)Base Attack/Grapple: +3/+3Attack: MW sword-rapier +8 melee (1d6, 19-20/x2); or MW dagger +8 thrown (1d4+1, x2)Full Attack: MW sword-rapier +8 melee (1d8) and MW short sword +4 melee (1d6-1); or MW dagger +8 thrown (1d4)Space/Reach: 5 ft/5 ftSpecial Attacks: Spells (CL 3)Special Qualities: Feat of Heroism, Inspire, Magnificent Defense, human qualitiesSaves: Fort +4, Ref +7, Will +4Abilities: Str 10, Dex 18, Con 14, Int 13, Wis 9, Cha 16Skills: Perform (harp, singing, epics) 7+1, Bluff 7+3, Diplomacy 7+3, Sleight of Hand 7+4, Knowledge (nobility and royalty) 5+1, Perceive 7-1, Spellcraft 7+1, Sense Motive 7-1, Divination 2-1Feats: Mighty Hurl, Two-Weapon Fighting, Quick Draw, Weapon FinesseEnvironment: Any landOrganization: AnyChallenge Rating: 4Treasure: MW sword-rapier, MW short sword, MW dagger, harp +3, sack of extradimensionality, bracers of saving throws +1, 100 gp, 300 spAlignment: Chaotic 4/Good 1Advancement: By character classLevel Adjustment: +0Power Rituals Known: Meditation of the Adaptive Mind, Reveal the LostPlayed by me, the DM.Orrin Karlsson is an itinerant storyteller and singer. He learned magic at the feet of the Druids of Caledon Wood. Orrin now wanders, searching for new experiences and interesting tales.Feat of Heroism (Ex): Once per day, the Exalten can add a bonus equal to her class level to a single skill check, ability check, or saving throw.Inspire (Ex): With a few encouraging words and a bit of glorious charisma, the Exalten can inspire another person. As a standard action, the Exalten can exalt any one person other than herself that can see and understand her. The inspired ally gains a +2 morale bonus to saving throws, attack rolls, and damage rolls for a number of rounds equal to the Exalten’s Charisma modifier (minimum 1). Alternately, the Exalten can inspire everyone within earshot who is friendly or helpful, granting them only the +2 morale bonus to saving throws. The Exalten can use this ability once per day per class level.Magnificent Defence (Su): An Exalten is highly confident in her own dramatic fighting style, and is bolstered by her own prowess. This confidence allows her to calmly face combat and defend herself with elegance and panache. After reaching 3rd level, while wearing no armor, the Exalten applies her Charisma modifier, if positive, to her armor class.CL: 3MP: 17Spell Lists Known (11): Charm Humanoid, Charm Animal, Create Light, Create Sound, Illusion Crystal, Illusion Life, Illusion Ice, Illusion Light, Illusion Sound, Illusion Shadow, Infuse ForceSignature Spells (4):invisibility (Illusion Shadow 3/Gen 0, 1 minute)Orrin’s singing blade (Create Sound 1/Infuse Force 1/Gen 1, weapon is +1/+1, +1d6 sound damage for 10 minutes) Orrin’s caress of stillness (Charm Humanoid 3, target is dazed for 10 rounds, Will DC 14 negates)flee my wrath!
