Planescape recruitment: Anyone looking to stop Tenebrous being reborn?

[Nalfeshnee]

well once i et everyones character sheet ill check them over to see party balance, then ill post suggestions and see if anyones up for a slight chance. though there shouldnt be any problems at this rate. the higher level it gets the more the charcters should diverge... at least so i expect!

Background sent. Nalfeshnee, due to the timeline with the Faction War you can bump my character's age up to 25 (otherwise he'd have been a bit young for this...).

Thanks.

A'Koss: nice history, and fitting of the image i have for the party


But there's just one thing (and this applies to everyone, especially planar characters). Knowledge (the planes) is an important sill to have, especially if you've been around a bit. Even taking just one rank (thus allowing you make trained skill checks with it) would be nice - of course it is up to you but i do expect characters who have been to a couple of planes and whove lived in Sigil to have a least one rank in the skill. Taking levels in Planar substitution classes (from the plaanr handbook) will allow characters without usual access to the skill to take Knowledge (the planes) as a class skill, also some other abilities (like portal detection are always useful when adventuring in the City of Doors (it aint called that for nothing, berk )

a blood who doesnt know his way around the multiverse quickly ends up in the dead book.

No prob. I was just concerned that we might be covering the same bases.

Yep.

BTW, if you do have the Enlarge Person spell, you might want to know, that it doesn't work on Aasimars (since they are not humanoids, but outsiders).

actually im surprised the dracnic creature doesnt change the creature type. would have thoght at least the reptilian subtype, if not an actual dragon.

 

[Dire Lemming]

There really should be a planar version of Charm Person. I mean, how many humanoids are you actually going to meet? I do like the bard spells at the Planewalkers website. I'm definatelly getting Sucubus Kiss lol!

 

[Thanee]

It's just a slight change, so the base race is still the dominant one. That's why, I guess.

Well since ive got all six players i'd better get to the rules, so:

Im allowing:
All core rulebooks
PH II
Planar Handbook and Manual of the Planes
all Complete Books
all Races of Books (including Race of the Dragon, but not Races of Eberron)
The Spell Compendium (all spells should come from the above books, any exceptions - just show me the spell and I'll let you know)
Feats/Skills from the Panewalker.com site (anything else, just ask me and ill let you know)
Tome of Magic (i like all classes in that book though i doubt anyone will use them)
Magic of Incarnum and Expanded Psionics Handbook (i wont be using anything from those books but if anyone wants to use feats/classes etc from there, feel free to)
and Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss

Ability Scores: 32 point buy, should make pretty good characters with that

HP: 1/2+1 (1st level is max, as usual)

Starting Gold: 9000, no item can be worth more than 4,500 (magical items from the abov books only, no exceptions).

List your characters' languages, alignment and Faction (and religion, if any). These are all quite important

And, as Thanee pointed out, keep in mind that outsiders are not humanoids, so many spells do affect them differently (that what things like charm monster etc are for)

And finally: anyone who is a faction member may have an extra feat chosen from the faction feats at the Planewalker.com site. The character should be a member-in-good-standing of the fation if he/she is to have such a feat. i leave it up to you whether or not to take the feat (all prerequisited do apply)


Rules:
all standard PH rules, with the addition of Defence Bonus and Armour as DR. no more no less

I love planescape but have never gotten to play it. If you do start a second campaign I'd love to have a the opportunity to play. Don't know what I'd play though; I'd have to see what others are thinking about playing first.

 

[Nalfeshnee]

Thanks for the interest Ambrus.

i'll see how this one goes, and if enough people show interest in playing anther i'll see what i can do, though ill make it different in tone to differenteate between the two
