[QUOTE="Shoel Sweeny, post: 2867926, member: 40608"] [B]Shayuri [/B] Sounds like an intresting character, would definately fit in with all the self-improvement obsessed characters we have. [CODE]While Mei is technically a member of the court, her mortal lifespan will prevent her from getting far. Thus, she feeds the celestial power within her, growing in supernatural power, by consuming the magical essences of enemies. Her goal is to one day grow in power sufficiently to become, at least, Immortal...and perhaps even become a minor Goddess. [/CODE] A novel idea, how do you see this working mechanicaly? Additionally, the Orient Pantheon in PS is called the Celestial Beuracracy, and has strong ties to Arcadia, Hades, Elysium, and a couple other planes I can't think of off-hand (will post them later if you're intrested) if you wish to tie Mei further into the setting. You might want to consider Wu-Jen instead of sorceror, if for no other reason then you'd have greater access to utility spells and higher level spells, espescially since gestalt characters have a tendency not to possess the spells they should given their assumed +2 CR. You can of course still go with sorceror if you wish, your character after all. [B]ByteRynn[/B] Good job on the character sheet formating, that's going to make him alot easier in play. Make the changes I listed in my e-mail to you, and make sure nonamazing is okay with the character links, and then you'll be good to post him in the Rogues gallery. Under your current sheet I'd like to see the math that went into Halidons skills and abilities. This can be as simple as a paranthetical list of how many skill points you possess and how many points you spent on your point buy. Speaking of a Rogues Gallery, there's a link to it here (though no one's sheet has been fully approved yet) [url]http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=2867911#post2867911[/url] [B]Aereas[/B] The Seekers and the Transcendant Order (ciphers) are two differint factions, did you mean that Drognan is part of that faction, or seeker as in looking for cosmic truth? If he's looking to join the Transcendant Order he'd be gated to Elysium rather then the Outlands, as the faction headquarters are located there.
