Recruiting: Rowaini Musketeers--One for All and All for One!

[Rystil Arden]

What's it kinda like? it might fit. Troubador was ok... but not quite what I was looking for.

A trickster, jokester, and master of insults, the Jester's sharp wit is her greatest weapon. Some Jesters are master manipulators in court, subtly or not-so-subtly influencing opinion and pitting former allies against each other. Others use their talents to fight dirty in more ways than one, using the distraction from demoralising insults and cutting puns to land a sneaky blow. It's kinda like Rogue/Bard, but it also deals in debuffs.

Oh, sounds like fun

But sounds unsimple to writeup.

 

[Rystil Arden]

How open are you to having a non-Rowaini or a Rowaini who has picked up other classes having been spelljamming pre-game?

No non-Rowaini (they won't even take Rowaini females, let alone non-Rowaini), and I'd strongly discourage non-Rowaini classes, but I'm open to listening to ideas with the understanding that I'll probably say no.

Toubador spell list is bard list, right?

Yes.

[sblock=RA]Can a Troubador use Dance instead of song for the bardic music stuff? I was thinking perhaps of a character who's so smooth, he does everything almost like a dance. It would also be a different way to activate the abilities without him going around everywhere and singing.

On a side note, how are you uspposed to use Intimidation of the Vistas to hide if you're making noise?[/sblock]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Bront]I believe that dance can activate the normal bardic music stuff, but not the three special Troubadour powers which require music. Hiding would be best with Lingering Song--you get at least a minute after you stop.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Bront]

Lingering song is in what book?

Song of the Heart from ECS an ok feat?

 

[Bront]

Lingering song is in what book?

Found it, and it only works on the inspires, so the Hide is fairly worthless

[sblock=Rystil]Any chance you'd allow Flaws? I had an interesting thought.

The character I'm thinking of is a good, stout lad, with a strong personality, good looks, a dedicated heart, and a sound, if perhaps not too quick, mind. However, he is truely starcrossed. He's not a womanizer per say, because that would involve actualy getting them and treating them poorly. This poor young lad instead falls in love easily, almost at the drop of the hat, with almost any woman he sees or must interact with. His demeanor quickly turns meak, he stumbles on words, and is putty in the hands of one who wishes it.

Basicly, I was hoping for some negitive to some of his social skills involving women (-2 to all social skills directly involving a women) and a will save penalty (-2) vs woman, but to get some feat or something out of it. Not sure if that's too nasty, and I could see him eventualy growing out of it. Perhaps instead, give him some bonus to Hide, Move Silently, and Disguise to blend in or be otherwise Innocuous, which would go away at some point when the flaw went away.

I think it'd be fun, and different. I guess I don't need the mechanical aspect of it, but it would be kinda cool to do so.[/sblock]
