[Voadam]

Second story burglar who relies upon speed instead of sneak attacks and trap springing, coming up.

Skills... balance, climb, jump, tumble. Will work out the rest.

 

[Voadam]

Do you want a 1st or second level character?

*Plus, 28 point buy is... restrictive:
the original char would be dependant upon Cha, Con, Dex (if not also Str), which would be a problem with 28 point buy... so Sorcerer is the way to go.

Do you want a 1st or second level character?

Your pick. 2nd is fine, but if you want to be someone more green than the others I am fine with that as well.

 

[Tonks]

Land Outcast: Are you going with the same history, or altering it for the new concept? Otherwise looks good to me after you get the feats picked out.

Due to the short nature of this outing, I think 28pts will still let people do what they need to do. If this was going to be a longer thing, I would most likely use a higher point buy.

I'll just wipe out the "warrior and able seaman" thing, he just helped his master in daily chores, more as an aide and scribe than other thing, he was kept around because he was just taken a liking of...

He was taken into the pirate ship because of well... he gave them the other ship, and also he was something of an imposing person, which gained him a liking (until he tried the mutiny thing...) as member of the crew.

Works for me and with him needing the work it plays in nicely with the sharp gleaming plot hook that will be coming your way after the others get selected.

 

[Land Outcast]

Sorcerer variant in PHII?
Swapping familiar for not-increasing casting time of metamagicked spells?

I don't have a problem with it, but at second level would that really be useful?

 

[Land Outcast]

At second level if I went the "useful" route I'd take:
Combat Casting
Spell Focus (Evocation)
Bluff (5 ranks)
Concentration (5 ranks)
Knowledge (Arcana) 5 ranks

If you'd rather have me go that way, know I have no problem, just was planning the character "as if" it was the exact same character as for the Savage Tide.
