Pathfinder: Burnt Offerings [hewligan's game]

[Friadoc]

Friadoc:

Kael's character sheet is very well laid out and looks perfect. Just one thing: Your cart and equipment is now stored somewhere for a few coppers a night. That is fine, but there is no way that you can carry all that kit with you when we go adventuring, so I am going to assume that when walking about, you don't have the following with you:

firewood, cart, canvas, chest, 100ft of rope, your tent, and all 10 of your torches

If you do plan on carrying any of these items around with you when adventuring on short trips around and out of town let me know. If/when you have to travel further afield, we can discuss buying a mule or horse to drag your cart.

Exactly, part of the reason I killed of his previous horse in his background was to save money Out of Characterly and In Characterly give him a reason to be stuck in town for a bit.

I figured it'd be a nice roleplay opportunity, as well as give him a short term goal (to get a new horse, mule, pony, or what not).

He'll keep a torch in his pack, normally, but the cart is the main storage point, until he moves into a wagon, or what not.

Rhun - while you are welcome to use a Morningstar, the favoured weapon of Sarenrae is a Scimitar, so you may prefer to swap. If so, update things please. The Morningstar does 1d8 damage, the Scimitar 1d6, but in its favour it has a critical chance on 18-20. I am neutral on this, so go with what you prefer.

Appearance: Jovik is a young lad, ready for his apprenticeship. He has all the boundless energy of young of none of the wisdom of age it seems. The bright twinkle in his eye is constantly finding new things, new adventures, new challenges. He has the robust look of a fisherman, despite his small frame. He wears a simple tunic and breeches usually. A long rapier dangles from his hip on occasion. Unless he sees Sheriff Hemlock of course, whereupon the rapier seems to disapear, somwhere with the assorted daggers he keeps hidden on him.

Background:

Jovik was a mischievious lad, the son of a local fisherman Kylic Magnix. Jovik would have grown up a fisherman like his father, but an inquisitive nature and a lack of respect for the rules lead to a very different life. The local gossip mongers used to wonder wether this stout refugee family of obvious Magnimar ancestry didn't have some Varisian in them. As Jovik grew and his antics grew with him, those same gossips even speculated that Jovik was a Sczarni changleing, switched at birth, such mischief did he cause. Those youthful antics have put him within sight of the town guard. Not that they have caught him, but they're watching him. Jovik liked to test the rules, whatever they were and whoever's they were. He did things on impulse mostly. Small things really, mostly to entertain himself, to see if he could do something. And Jovik was always trying something. Nothing held his attention long, he wanted to be done and moving on to the next thing. So fishing was an exceptional torture to Jovik. At 18 Jovik now needs to be apprenticed or otherwise employed. The thought of being a fisherman is repugnent to him, and his older brothers can carry on that tradition. And the rigid life of an apprentice is too restrictive for a free spirit like Jovik. So Jovik has decided to find his own path in the world, one of adventure and wealth.

Fenris - where are you getting Jovis' +2 attack on dagger from?

Also, I am guessing you plan to use improved feint + backstab a lot? Quite a useful build.

Character otherwise looks fine.

From typing late at night I fixed it.

I had a hard time picking Jovik's direction. I decided to try to the feint route to try it out. Even though that menat trying to squeeze yet another skill (Tumble) out of my meager skill points.

Leveling up information:

Hit points: Please use the following approach:

As for hit points: I don't like rolling, rewards some and punishes others rather randomly. My preferred approach is to take full at first level, and then rounded down half + 1 at other levels (also known as the half but round up method), so your hit points would be like this:

1d4 = 3
1d6 = 4
1d8 = 5
1d10 = 6
1d12 = 7

Remember to add you constitution bonus, if any.

Also please remember that at levels 2, 4, 6, etc. you also get to raise an attribute by 1.
