[OOC] Of Vile Darkness - Full

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

But remember that you're working for an organization run by a extremely intelligent and cautious man, if the Black Butterfly thinks that you couldn't do it alone, he'll hire someone else to help watch your back. For example: if Melena the wizardress is asked to some magical assassination, but has to get very close to her target and is required to cause some havoc, perhaps the Butterfly might pair her with someone who is experience at being the "heavy muscle" on certain jobs... like Lord Torr Stormrider.

nameless, I already have three, but your name is on the alternate list.

I just noticed this in Rybaer quote... maybe you edited it in after I had gone by it, but anyhow it's import so I'll comment on it.

Notice for all my current players: I'm instituting a new policy for all of my games. If someone doesn't post for over three days and they are holding up the game because of it, I will NPC your player until you return (and you can immediately take up the reins agan). Absence for two weeks without prior notice means I bring in an alternate to take over your character (and they are allowed to make changes to them) or I bring in an entirely new player and character.

All in all I have no issues with this, if there’s one person I trust to run Loviana it would be you, but I'm not sure how needed this truly is in this game... Where basically running individual campaigns here, then again like Rybaer, I do have issues keeping up with each and everything everyone does so maybe there has been more party interaction.

I do not want to have to play three abandoned PCs, so I will probably find a way to remove them from the party at the first available opportunity.

Makes more than perfect sense to me.

Please, please, please e-mail me if you realize you haven't posted in several days and real life is keeping you busy. I'd rather know that someone has had a hectic day at work than they found my game boring and quit.

I'm not asking for, nor do I feel like I deserve special treatment, but I feel obligated to tell you of my intentions. I have no desire, nor will I be quitting your game(s) any time soon. I have job security, I have no life, and I've spent too much time to contemplate walking out of the story in mid game.

Anyhow, if you think I'm slacking or lagging behind don’t hesitate to shoot me an email but I think I'm refocused, and I've found out it's much easier to ask then to look.

I'm instituting this policy for the health of my games and am sincerely not trying to annoy anyone, so no one take it personally!

Don't forget about for the health of your sanity.

Isida, this is probably a weird question for someone to ask when there character has only had one fight, and lost badly mind you, but when are we going to level up?

Also how do you feel about remade characters?

And did you know there is a Loviatar PrC in the Players Guide to the Faerûn? (though this might not really be a good pick for Loviana)

Also for all of the new players if there’s anyone out there with the intention of making another character devoted to the goddess of dark pleasure... err I mean pain, you have my blessing.

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Leveling up I will be considering here in a bit, I want to finish this little exhange with Orshallan first and see where that goes.

As for remade characters, do you mean re-made with the intention of taking advantage of things that weren't available at character creation? Possible, but I would want to see where you are going with it first.

I didn't know there was a Loviatar PrC in the Players Guide to Faerun because I don't have that book yet (I've been put on a very tight budget).

Cool no hurry.

Yeah, remade, same thing... It probably will not work as Skada has made her appearance and it would indeed be hard to pay for it without the PrC but I don’t know… The character just seems very weak in many ways. The unholy warrior's handbook, and to the lesser part the book of righteous, seems like a better build for her than the corrupter class.

I didn't know there was a Loviatar PrC in the Players Guide to Faerun because I don't have that book yet (I've been put on a very tight budget).

I hate to hear about your tight budge it's got to be harsh going to college and suffering from lack of cash for all the things you love...

Anyhow, the PrC is very cleric driven, has a serious drug addiction but on the plus side it does use the Book of Vile Darkness. (I'll see about getting you a copy of it.)

 

[Ferrix]

cool, i was thinking a pure spellcaster, maybe an ur-priest of some sort. although i could play something else, another thought i had was a dark stalker from Fiend Folio. they're humanoid appearing, so they could blend in. although a doppleganger would be interesting if you'd allow it, a doppleganger psion (hehehe) or, what's that shape changing PrC from CW at the very end of the prc section. hehe... if i went with the doppleganger psion i'd focus on domination and things like that, a manipulator. as a dark stalker probably end up as a rogue-ish type character, although you seem to have plenty of those already. as an ur-priest, well that'd need some mental fleshing out in my head, a wizard/cleric/ur-priest/MT could have a great deal of diversity to wreak some havoc.

for personality, i've been wanting to play a character based off of the darkest readings of Nietzsche... an uberman, forges his own destiny without pity or regret, considers mankind a flock, a sharp mind and body, treats those who can't forge their own destiny with vile disdain

that could work with a psionic-dominator type character (the sheep are my toys, he'd end up a bit of a hypocrit), or an ur-priest (only sheep follow gods, literally the anti-christ ), or a monk (i need no sheep forged weapon).

so true... so so very true, university sucks the cash out of your pocket, like nothing else, well except probably sending your own kids to university (i'd have to ask my parents about that one)

and of course choosing between eating for a week and doing something you love/buying something for your addiction (whatever it may be), always makes things interesting

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

Isida, first draft is up; for the other 44K of cash, I need weapons (usually a light pick or other high-crit-multiplier off-hand weapon, a bow, and a truncheon with which to subdue captives) and light armor; anything else is up to you.

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Paxus, I need a couple things first. Could you please put Gwyn in the given format? Also if you use anything from any other source than the core, please put the book and page number where it's from so I can reference it properly. Once Gwyn's in the right format, I will proceed with the rolling-up of all sorts of crazy stuff.
