[CLOSED] Pathfinder: Vampires of Waterdeep OOC Thread

[Angel Tarragon]

FYI, I've started up a Rogue's Gallery thread.

 

[Vertexx69]

Alrighty then, since I haven't played one in a while, I'll go with a changeling cleric 3 (Lust & Pride) as my concept. Is there a vampiric deity in pathfinder, I can't seem to get the beta downloaded? Theres nothing in Cdiv or SC and I dont have LM or BoVD anymore.

How do you wanna do HP? Roll or average?

 

[Vertexx69]

Is it cool if we use vamp options from Libris Mortis? I used the "Psychic vampire" option which takes away the level drain and gives 1d6 wisdom drain and a 1 point wisdom drain aura.

Are you using the rule that any skill that has a racial bonus is counted as always a class skill?

Heres the work in progress, still need skills and spells, but other than that I took average for HP.

[sblock=Description & Style] This slender vampire is nothing if not the epitomy of sly charm. His long black hair is always shining and perfectly groomed. His perfect porcelain skin has the pallor of alabaster, which only serves to attract women to him like a moth to the flame. While he often maintains a male form, it is not uncommon to sometimes find a stunning young woman that shares many of Rangta’s personality traits when he is not around. The massive tower shield he carries into battle matches his thick black armor, and both bear the symbol of an elder elemental eye unlike that of any deity anyone has ever heard of. Strangely he doesn’t seem to carry a weapon, but only an oddly bound two foot rod at his belt with a sickly green crystal set into its base. His lust extends well beyond blood and he can often be found hosting bachnals from the bottom of a pile of gorgeous young folk deep into the night, many of which take up the call of the elder elemental eye in his name. Amongst the myriad tangle of limbs several violet tentacles can sometimes be glimpsed through the din of flesh. [/sblock]

How do you wanna do HP? Roll or average?

Three-quarters max.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Is it cool if we use vamp options from Libris Mortis? I used the "Psychic vampire" option which takes away the level drain and gives 1d6 wisdom drain and a 1 point wisdom drain aura.

I have no problem with this, if anyone else wants to use these options I'm cool with it. A little variety is a good thing.

Are you using the rule that any skill that has a racial bonus is counted as always a class skill?

I'm not changing this from the RAW.

Heres the work in progress, still need skills and spells, but other than that I took average for HP.

Here's my character, I'm mostly finished with the crunch, thinking about swapping out a few items, but most likely he'll stay like this. Working on the fluff for the moment, unless anything comes up tomorrow, I should be able to finish then.

Tired now, I'll give it a good look over later.

Drakir I tallied your equipment. I think your prices are off, unless I am mistake they should be:

Night Ward 16,850
Ariadne 34,000
Eriale 8,000

After subtracting everything else (including cash left over) you have an extra 6,874 gp. Feel free to spend it however you choose.

 

[Vertexx69]

Vertexx, wil please let me know which books these are from and their page numbers. I've got too many books and not enough space in brain to remember what's where.

I'll get you some page numbers but they are all from the MIC (though I'm still mulling over the gloves and the +2 bonus on the rod). I kind of built my cleric concept around the greater tentacle rod, and the forgotten god who's cabalistic clerics are more like charismatic cult leaders than cloistered clergy...wow I should change his name to C like in V for Vendetta

I do have a question about the rod though. It states that when its activated it makes 6 attacks at its own attack bonus against 1 target, but what about the rest of the round? Can it make Attacks of Opportunity, and if so can it make multiples since we all have combat reflexes?
