JollyDoc's Savage Tide-Updated 10/8!

Shilsen, I won't disagree with the fact that she would be less powerful (losing versatility has that effect). That would be foolish, and dishonest. But her build as a pure core character would still be very, very viable in this campaign arc.

Sure. I think the cleric, druid, sorcerer, and wizard can all be completely viable in the majority of campaigns while running strictly core, simply because of the spells. I think it's the other classes which really need non-core material to stay in the running as one goes up in levels, since otherwise they get overshadowed very fast.

Now that you mention non-core...

Daelric's wanton use of spells with the Evil descriptor gradually turned his lilly-livered soul black as midnight. As for Marius, he was officially CN in the beginning, but you know how it goes...slaughter a few innocent bystanders, become a thrall of Graz'zt and before you know it, you're plucking the wings off of pixies and signing your name with a 666!


PS...it's great hearing from all you lurkers out there. Don't be strangers!!

Psh, is that all? So if he spent a month summoning a few celestials a day, would he get kicked back to neutral or even good?

Wait, what spells are we talking about? I don't remember him using many in the recaps in the first place. That's a bit of a sticking point for me. If the spell was evil for its tendency to cause more pain and suffering than, say, being burned alive in a fireball, I could see it. But others, like summoning evil outsiders, don't strike me as that bad, at least if they're used for good purposes. So is anyone good at this point, or ever for that matter? Octurus and Samson are the closest I think you guys came.

 

[GilaMonster]

Is there any possibility of seeing Octurus's char sheet?

HA! Finally a good point! It doesnt cause anymore suffering it just slows targets (will save to negate) everytime TC hits not used for evil purposes but i cant say he is being a good boy either

Another avid thread lurker ...
Burningspear missed Avasculate from the list on non-core spells. Its really deserves its [evil] descriptor.

I started reading this thread when I was planning on using the adventure of going to the island of dread, only in reverse. My players were planning on leaving a modified Isle of Dread. The campaign ended too quickly (one player became a father, and stepped away from the table, while two previous players asked to rejoin, resulting in a new campaign)

I was also hoping to get in the pirate attack on farshore, I loved the task/war set up in that one. This series has had some really great adventures, including enemy of my enemies.
JollyDoc What was your favorite chapter to run?

That would be the warhulk's fault, mostly.
+2 Strength every level. Untyped bonus. Explicitly stacks with itself.
It's awesome.
The only downside is the class ability No Time to Think, and the lack of a BAB progression.
