Metropolis - The Weight of the World (and Found Wanting)

[Lord_Raven88]

Are there any spot still open Phoenix as I'd love ot play, I just wish I had realised earlier that you were opening up another Metropolis game.

Ideally I'm probably looking for 6 players, so as long as there are not 6 active players in the RG, i'm still recruiting.

Thanks, Bront. Ascetic Mage would be cool and worth it for the ability to freely multiclass alone but, as you say, it is four levels away before I could even consider taking it.

Phoenix: I added bits on her appearance, her fortune-telling methods, and her equipment (though the effects of said equipment haven't been integrated into her sheet.) Other than that, and barring undiscovered mistakes or flashes of inspiration, she's finished.

She looks good, I like her, post her to the RG once the stats are done and we can start.

Done! And thanks. I'm very excited about this.

Multiclass restrictions...favoured classes...XP penalties...I can hear the words but they mean nothing to me, I don't understand such concepts...

As long as the concept is sound, same here. The other stuff makes a somewhat awkward multi-class (Monk is level based, and caster levels are important), less awkward.

Or, as I've seen several feats like this written:
Requires: You suck.
Benifit: You suck less.

That said, I've always pondered a fun Monk/Sorcerer, or a Paladin Sorcerer.

There's something to be said about taking the first level of Fighter twenty times...

Whaaaat? Don't tell me you've never wanted 20 fighter feats and a base +40 Fort save!

But that Will save!

Ymris is short two languages. I meant to ask earlier but what languages are appropriate for Metropolis? I'd like her to have another commonly spoken language and perhaps a scholarly or ancient language learned during her years of tending the sage/wizard/whate'er she is Tysura. Advice/direction would be greatly appreciated.

Also, should I be writing the actions of Thom, her familiar, or does that fall under your purview?

Planar languages are pretty pointless, but you can make up new cool ones! Like Semaphore, Braile, Mexican Hat Dance Code, Thieves' Cant, etc etc...otherwise, it's just racial really...

EDIT: Oh, and we can share the cat

Oooh, Mexican Hat Dance Code sounds really cool. Unfortunately I neglected to have Ymris purchase the special shoes. So I'll stick with Common and (as odd as it may sound) Archaic Common; if it's ok for her to know an ancient version of Common. And I just realized that the other (supposed) open language slot I thought she had wouldn't have truly existed since her Int was increased due to age well after her 1st level.
