Gaming W/Jemal - FinalFantasy D&D (Going Again!)

[Caros]

Alright, think I've got this down pat. Gonna submit the entry for the Main Character/Swordsman though realistically it could fit a couple other niches if need be.

Kyo - Kyo was never a typical young man. At the age of 11 he won a premiere regional tournament, leading him to represent his small slice of nowhere at a worldwide competition in which he placed 45th out of nearly 200 competitors, many of whom 3-4 times his age. At 12 he was inducted as a regional protector for his assistance in bringing a small orginization of bandits to justice. His list of accomplishments went on and on.

They included as well, a mental breakdown. At the age of 14 the death of his family at the hands of southern raiders was too much to take, shutting down the young swordsman for the better part of the year while his remaining family members and friends did their best to nurse him back to health.

They did a well enough job, and by the age of 16 Kyo was a fully functional young man, working in a farmers field for a living he had all but given up the sword it seemed, though he was chipper and relaxed as ever before, always with a smile glittering just behind emerald eyes.

Darimaus! There's only room for one annoying talking animal sidekick and I soooo have dibs. <3

Actually, I don't know what I'm going to be. Essentially I'm posting so Jemal knows I'm interested in the campaign. Hear that Jemal? I'm interested! *gasp* I'll have something resembling a character concept soonish. So... yeah. You'll hear from me.

Ok, I'm withdrawing my drow mage. Too many rules issues, and he's a drow. PLus, I'm already playing him in my face-to -face games, and having him in a parallel universe just seems weird.

I'll have another decent concept soon. I'm sorry if my character indecision is putting you off Jemal. I'm oft like this. I'll make something cool, though.

 

[Jemal]

Darimaus - cool, if you want go ahead. just be sure to post only what you enjoy.

WarlockLord - Well, the Light Blindess cancels out the increased Darkvision in terms of balancing.
They get SR, +4 stat mods(Beyond normal Elf), and the other stuff is basic.

Hmmm.. How bout this. The Light Blindess is going to seriously screw you (The first month of the campaign is an overland trek, just for starters). SO, maybe a few modifications that have you.. 'acclimated' to the surface a bit?
I'm thinking drop light blindness, Drop the SLA's, and maybe drop one of the +2 racial stat mods, and make it +1 LA. how's that sound?

Also, you'd have to post the info on any PrC before I'd allow/disallow it.

 

[ethandrew]

TheMagician - Definitely! I think there are some good PrC's for a Summoner, too.
Anyone else have any ideas for our intrepid Summoner? (I'll work up a special ability, but I think it should be fairly easy.. Unique, powerful Summons. (Not Spells, but X/day things. The normal summons would be as the spells, and you'd be allowed to take other spells, as normal summoners can cast black magic).

Not sure how useful this will be as per your question, but good PrC's for a summoner would be Master Specialist from Complete Mage, and Malconvoker (spelling could be off, I don't have the book with me at the moment) from Complete Scoundrel.

Complete Mage also has a lot of those flavour feats for casters, definitely worth looking over.

And if I'm not mistaken, it looks like you only have two main character submissions... might be I'll put one in soon in that case, just for variety's sake.

Black Mage:
A mage-type who specializes in Offense
Requirements: Serious magical damage-dealing potential
Benefits: EXTRA Serious magical damage-dealing potential

The creature/Freak/pet that travels with the party. It/he/she is in Intelligent, but NOT normal.
Requirements: Not humanoid.
Benefits: Not Humanoid. Possibly reduced/No LA on certain creatures. Could pick a normally unintelligent or unplayable creature.


Edit: argh. finger slipped on the "submit" button there ><

Anyways, I'm probably going to go after one of these concepts. If Darimus wants to be the mascot he can go for it, however, it will cost him. *fist shake*

So, the black mage type. I'll be playing a female, as per usual, so... perhaps I'll fill the "love interest" role as well, if Aurican doesn't join in the campaign that is (Sorry Caros, I'd rather be swooning over him ). Right now my character concept includes a general happy personality and an image in my head along with the word "fireball" so... I'll work on that.

Holy crap the thread got busy all of a sudden! 4 posts while I was posting!

First off - YAY KAYISTA!!! nice ta see ya, kittylady.
*Note to others : AS posted in the beginning, some slots will be saved for my RL friends. Kayista as such, does indeed have 'dibs' on whichever slot she calls. I've also seen both my roomies here, but not sure if they want who they are public knowledge or not. (If you do, Out yourselves and you get the spots guaranteed. )

Warlocklord - 'sokay, just remember I'd like to pick the team by monday/tuesday.

Caros - cool.

ethandrew - thanx.

Caitan, the Master Necromancer (Master Specialist from Complete Mage)

Caitan was an odd young man. He was always quite morbid and disdainful of others, so it was natural for him to take up the study of necromancy. He grew disdainful of the crude manipulations of evocation, and realized that he would have to put up with other people for enchantment, so specialization was easy. Undead, on the other hand, were not like people. They didn't whine, complain, or gossip behind one's back. They didn't stop, or object when he gave orders, and were tireless, obedient servants. With an army of the dead at his beck and call, it was natural for him to go into mercenary work.

He could either be the black mage, the rich man (a private army for sale brings in the cash), or a villain. He's more of an antihero, he uses his undead to do good deeds. I notice there are no rich men.

 

[Caros]

Eh

Eh. Since Kayista already mentioned both of our names its safe to assume the cat is no longer in the bag ^_^;

Yay me.
