Malvoisin's War of the Burning Sky PbP

[Rystil Arden]

Yay! Congratulations to everyone else who made it--there were a whole lot of great concepts there. I'll start working on Ariadne right away.

 

[Verbatim]

I want to pass on my congrats also and say that I am looking forward to gaming with you all.

Mal: Would it be okay if I did change him from favored soul to straight cleric, or would you prefer the initial concept? Either one is fine, but looking at the flexibility of the spells, I am thinking a straight priest might work better for us all.

I'd be fine with Markus as a cleric as well. I chose him to fill the role of divine caster for the party, so either way works.

@Rystil Arden and Shayuri:

This may seem like a silly request, but would one of you consider changing the name of your character?

Ariadne and Aridha are just so similar, and I'm in favor of reducing the potential for confusion...

Thanks!

Cool. I will switch him to priest and work on the rest of history tonight while waiting for the full guidelines.

Sure, I came up with the name second, so I'll pick something else. I'm just happy we have a Scout so I don't have to take Search or Disable Device--Beguilers always run out of skill points. Hmmm, I was making an allusion with Ariadne, so her sister Phaedra will do. New name--Phaedra.

Thanks for the change, RA. I appreciate that.

Yeah, I was struggling to put together the group without a rogue, but then I realized that a Scout and Beguiler together could reasonably accomplish most of the same things.

edit: Phaedra it is!

Yep, we both have Trapfinding, but Beguilers have only 6 + Int skill points to cover a wide variety of skills, so I'm very happy if I don't have to cover those two. I'll probably eventually have Fae take at least 1 rank in Disable Device so she'll be trained and she can roll the DC 10 check to Aid Another Aridha.

Skippy! Non-crazy and brooding, here I come!

Coldan may try for some of those new "Leader" feats from the Player's Guide, but I think he'll stay Knight over Commander though it looks interesting.

And, yes, I envision him as human as none of the other non-human cultures seemed appropos for Ragesia.

Here's a question--I'm thinking of Civic Minded for Fae, but I'm wondering if it could give Knowledge [Nobility and Royalty] as a class skill instead of Diplomacy, particularly since she already has Diplomacy and the feat seems to be about knowing political leaders and such. Somehow K[N&R] isn't on the Beguiler list, and I was thinking that Fae would have it to fit in among different social strata. If not, no big deal and I'll just use Knowledge [Local] for that, I guess.
