[CLOSED] Pathfinder: Vampires of Waterdeep OOC Thread

I think that I'll go with a human rogue to start with. What's your view on alignment? I'd like him to be NE, still working with the group of course, but if you like, I'll shift it to N.

LA 10 with 2HD, hows that going to work? Vampires need at least 5 HD to become vamps or they'd just be mindless spawn (making the minimum LA for this game 13). This could be a very tricky game to survive in, but being vampires helps a little ;p My Lawful Evil human monk or Dromite Wilder will have to be really crafty, because only the truely unenlightened monks don't like money, and an endless stream of faceless happy meals with legs. :devil:

I've got an idea for a character, the only problem is that the LA is just 1 point too high. I'd really like to play a Drow Vampire. I don't know if you'd be interested, by I have access to Libris Mortis, which has a Vampire Spawn Monster class(it basically allows you to play a vampire from ECL 1). Would you possibly allow me to play a Drow using this option? If you're wondering as to the class I'd choose after I finish getting my Monster class levels, I'm considering Bard or Wizard.

Any but CE. Basically the character needs to be able to get along well with others for the long haul.

Here is how I am going to treat it; prior to becoming aspiring nobles the characters were spawn, but the controlling vampire(s) are slain thereby promoting the characters to full vampire status. I think there are some literary examples of this but not sure of which ones.

Also this will be a psionics free game as Pathfinder has not yet tackled that subject.

If you really want to play a drow you are going to have to do it the Drow of the Underdark way (see the Drow Racial Class, pgs. 220-221). If you don't have that book let me know and I'll get the info typed up for you.

EDIT: Also your drow character will be a Szarkai, an albino drow that is indistinguishable from a normal elf. Your character should never reveal this though. You should try to come up with a unique background to reflect why your character came to be among Waterdhavians.

I'm quite new here (been playing pbp at wizards forum before I found this place too.) so before I start writing everything down, is there any specific way that you want this character presented? Any models for the sheet and such things, or can we just go ahead?

I've attached the character sheet template I've grown accustomed to using myself.

That's still not technically possible. The problem is that neither the Vampire Template nor the Drow Racial Class give any HD, and there's this little problem that you can't multiclass out of a racial class until you've taken all the racial levels. Do you want me to type and send the Vamp spawn class I have to you?(The class I have from LM gives 4 HD total, and still only takes up the 8 lvls the Vampire Template would normally cost).
As for the Szarkai bit, I was kinda intending to remain hidden(behind a mask, or by using illusion magic) or pull a Jarlaxle and claim to be Drizzt when people asked, or better yet, just say I'm only a Half-drow. This way the organization can have further ties to Skullport(which, as I recall has Drow). Been working on a rather nice backstory, which I'll send to you shortly.
 

All right. I didn't want to but I'll up the LA by 1, so character so start with LA11.

However I would like the drow to be a Szarkai. It doesn't change anything but cosmetics, you still have all the racial traits of a drow. You can still us the Skullport bit.
