Shemeska's Planescape Storyhour (Updated 29 Jan 2014)

[Clueless]

Oooorrrrrr - You could use PW's NPC forms and get them slipped into Cutters perhaps. *grins* I may be able to convince enzo to set up a Rogues Gallery section just for game characters. Not just this game - but others as well.

 

[Shemeska]

Your Baernoloth threads, over at WotC, for example, could be compiled into one RG thread at ENWorld... (Of course, people would ask for stats. )

Heh, well I gave full stats to one of them, and he/she/it clocked it at around 2000hp. And that was it when it was literally on the other side of the multiverse (on Quasielemental Ash) from its home plane (the Waste). I'll give abilities to them, but I don't see myself giving the other 12 of them full stats. I hope to write up that one w/ stats for one of the next one or two I put out.

2000 hps? That's a lot. What's the compared power level of archfiends like Orcus and Asmodeus in your campaign? The same as in the BoVD, or something closer to the Baerns?

The stats in the BoVD are, IMHO, a joke if you ever have PCs above level 20 in a campaign. I treat them as comparible to deities in some ways, weaker in others, and more powerful in a few. I would handle some of the Abyssal lords as actual gods, and Asmo similarly (though his definition is rather different in some ways IMC than in the BoVD, or Guide to Hell, or other places perhaps).

I eventually delve pretty deeply into the early years of the lower planes and the rise, fall, and rise of the civilizations and races there. I've got a pretty detailed mythology and chronology for many of these guys written up in the scheme of my campaign from the first day the planes formed.

Hey Shemmie, I'm not too familar with these boards so it may be a problem on my side but I seem to be having trouble PMing you. I too would love to see the stats of some of the NPCs you have but I don't want to share my email address in a public post. Maybe you could try PMing me, or should I just do so on the wizard.com boards as I know how those work a little better...

Sure, feel free to use any of the characters you like if you find them useful. I don't have a rogue's gallery set up for them, but I've got stats for most everyone around here somewhere. As I recall, Imshenviir was a mercane wizard 10. I've got his stats handy, so gimme an email address and I'll send them to you.

I've sent you an email. Thanks for letting me play with your creation.

As far as a Rogue's gallery, what exactly are those? Just stats for them, or flavor text as well? I'm in the process of writing such, including a story, for a number of NPCs in this game.

I think the other readers have answered this better than I could

You are a registered user, not a community supporter. PM, the search feature, custom user titles, are only for community supporters. So, Shemmie cannot PM you -- and even if he can, then you will not be able to read the PM anyway.

If you're warry of spambots, you can always use something like "myname ad somewhere period com." Using Latin (ad) instead of English (at), and period instead of dot (it's the same character, after all), should confuse even the best spambots.

"Ok, of all the physical flaws in the world, this guy got gingivitis?" - Toras's player, last game session.

"Note to self: hit Toras first next ten encounters." - me last game session

One thing I will never ever ever write is fiction involving Baernaloth peep shows, or anything even remotely along those lines. Icky.
