Dungeon's Adventure Path: Life's Bazaar...looking for interest.

[electric-ant]

It's probably too late, but is there room? If there is another spot, I'd be thinking either a rogue or give the Savage Species monster classes a shot; possibly ghaele or an elemental (summoned by a mentor to guard Marcus as an apprentice, perhaps).

Blackthorn

Here's my PC. All tenative at this point. Feedback very welcome.
I'll continue to edit this post as I figure out more precise equipment, spells, etc.

Blackthorn (doesn't give real name, generally)

Female elven cleric of Ehlonna (or equivalent)

S 14
D 16
C 12
I 10
W 15
Ch 12

domains: sun & plant

Blackthorn is a tall, strong elf. She wears weatherstained clothes of green & brown. She has green eyes, pale skin & dark brown hair. She has a vine of thorns tatooed around each bicept.

Blackthorn was raised by high elves in the forest of Celena (or other name, if more an appropriate location exists in this world)
She has been a militant nature lover as long as she can remember. When she was young (100 years ago), Celena was invaded by orcs, & she got her first taste of war. After about 10 years, the orcs were all slain or driven off & Celena was again at peace. She trained as a cleric because largely because she loved what Ehlonna represented to her people & their forest allies: a defender & nuturer. She left Celena as a volunteer with a group of rangers, druids, gnomes & archers to go to the forest of Arrandale to attempt to free that area from goblinoid control.
The incursion failed & most of her companions killed. She doesn't want to return to the peaceful vales of Celena, yet isn't strong enough to tackle a forest campaign alone. Instead she has wandered a bit, in no real hurry, as befitting one with a long life-span. She wants to accumulate power & knowledge to continue her fight. She also really wants to meet a unicorn.

Thanks...

Thanks for the heads up on the spells, and this afternoon I will get the spells selected, as well as his history.

I will also refrain from reading anymore of the Life's Bazaar threads. They have only gotten a small way, but I promise to keep that knowledge to myself and away from my char.

Spell List

I've edited my sheet and added my spells to it, are Dragon articles fair game for later spells?

This is workable. The Sun/Plant Diety in my world is known is Androxia (Female). She is LN. The closest equivilant to Celena is known as Fey-Ros.

Sigh...was just informed that one-half of every day will be spent at work until further notice. Gonna have to bow out. Sorry

Blackthorn

Lawful neutral might work. I do envision her diety as an elven one. Is Androxia elven? Are there specific elven dieties? I'm familiar with the ones in Greyhawk (which are very similar to FR, I believe.) Could I use those? I do like lawful characters, though. Androxia would probably work.

Not specifically elven, no. In fact, her church is seen as more of a cult. In my campaign world, there is this thing called the Covenant. A pact between certain Dieties that is respected as the legal basis for most secular authority (think Roman Imperial Law). The Covenant has fractured (along with the empire) into three rival credes. The only one the party is likely to deal with is the Northern Pantheon/Church. Androxia is not a member of any Covenant and never has been, therefore her clerics are often seen as heretics or at best cultists.

There are three specifically elven dieties on my world. The sanctioned one is alluded to in the Feint Whispers ooc thread. There is also the Cult of Arrow and Sword, a faith that is adhered to by the elites of Fey-Ros. The gods are twin (male and female). They are highly militant and arose from the faith of Lathander. Not respected throughout most of the North.

Looks like we're all here. What's the next step?

 

[Manzanita]

I hope I'm not being too much of a high-maintenance player. But for a cleric, the diety greatly affects the personality & I want to make sure I understand my PC & get a diety I'm comfortable with.

I read the feint whispers thread (parts of it, at least - looks great!). Is the elven diety you refer to Steffas? From your description, the diety that would best fit Blackthorn as I've designed her is the female militant elven Goddess. What are her domains (& the male's)? Would the background I've written fit w/her religion? Would it make sense for a cleric of that diety to go to Cauldron to find adventure & reward & venture forth on the adventure you've got in mind for us?
