[Spots Filled] Curse of the Cold Sun (Pathfinder, Eberron, RHoD)

[Scotley]

Well, as long as you're not the only one, that sounds good.

Never fear, if you build it, they will come. Indeed a couple of good players have already dropped by. Hey Mowgli!

Since martial and arcane types seem to be covered I'll look at divine characters. It has been a while since I played in Eberron. Will do a little reading and see what inspires.

This sounds pretty cool - lemme see what I can come up with for a character! (Hi, Scotley and Kaodi ).

(Maybe a Goblin Cavalier . . .)

Totally not pressuring you, but Q'barra is one of the few places where a Beast Rider Cavalier could take a baby T-Rex (or other dinosaur) as a mount and it makes perfect sense.

Sweet! I'd already decided on Beast Rider, and have him mostly built. I'd been thinking boar, but mainly because dinosaurs don't fit most places. My main concern is that his mount remain medium or small so that he can go almost everywhere the rest of the group goes.

D20PFSRD: Beast Rider

If you click on the t-rex hyperlink on the Beast Rider's SRD, you'll see that all of the dinosaurs that can be used as mounts or animal companions are medium sized, so that is of no concern. I'd suggest that they're either young dinos or that House Vadalis has been working on a project to breed miniaturized dinosaurs Q'barra and Talanta Plains, if you want to take advantage of that option.

[sblock=info]I have a concept I've been toying with for a while, but it requires something a bit specialized - the ability to see through fog. In pathfinder there are a couple ways to go about this. I originally built her as a sylph with the cloud gazer racial feat (advanced race guide pg 159). I could easily go human with the racial heritage (APG pg 168) & cloud gazer feats, or there is the goz mask (inner sea world guide pg 298).

Appearance:
Impossibly tall and thin, this pixie faced slip of a girl could easily be mistaken for an errant beam of moonlight when not moving. She carries a willowy longbow a foot taller than she is, and a pearly grey conch horn on a mithral chain across her humble if perky bossom. Luna's alabaster skin is etched with an opalescent ink in a pattern of exquisitely elegant pinstriped patterns that accentuate her delicately feminine curves. An unplaceable breeze almost always follows the girl, tossling her shimmering white locks and gently pulls her gossamer clothing tight over the nubile young form beneath.

Demeanor:
Luna's personality is as breathy and ephemeral as her softly raspy voice. She seeks to blend into the background wherever she is, and when actually noticed she seems perpetually distracted or uninterested in whatever is being asked of this Zen Archer. Every request is treated as a personal favor, that will take her completely out of her way. In other words, very much like an ordinary seventeen year old girl.[/sblock] Luna Foghorn is a teenage, Zen Archer, bounty hunter, who specializes in dealing non lethal dmg with her blunted arrows, to bring her bounties in alive.

Are you still recruiting? I've never played in Eberron and I'd like to give it a go.

A few questions though: This is recruiting for a PbP correct? I would like to play as Psionic Marksman (you can find it on d20pfsrd), would you allow it? Since this is Eberron many of the NPCs aren't all that high in level, are we expecting only a few level ups in the campaign?

To elaborate on Psionic marksman, I'd like to play a throwing specialist and for those that have gone through most of the pf books you know they are terrible once magic weapons enter the fray. Psionic marksman has two feats that allow it to shine as a throwing build, 1) allowing them to get back the weapon to throw immediately after it is thrown, 2) dex to damage instead of strength to damage. Feat intensive I know but throwing around a magic chakram looks awesome, I'm trying to make it feel awesome.

Looks like a decent idea, it would likely be as a Sylph that she was influenced by one of the planes during her birth rather than being descended from an elemental. While I like the idea of a non-lethal bounty hunter, this adventure can be a PC killer. Be careful if you want to go down that route.

I also have to ask, does just appear to be 17 because of her heritage, or is that her actual age? While I know that we aren't aiming for realism here, the latter would be really pushing it for a 5th level character and I'm not sure I'm okay portraying someone of that age with the scenarios you can (and will) encounter.

Common misconception about Eberron: Allied NPCs are low leveled in PC classes. Enemy NPCs can be as high leveled as I like, and there are some ridiculously leveled foes when you dig into it. If and when we finish RHoD, I have plans that could easily take up beyond level 20.
Marksman is a-okay, it will be good to see someone using psionics unleashed. You'll need to work on your background as to why you can use psionic powers and the following article has some suggestions if you need them.

Psionics in Eberron

I'll be recruiting until I have five fully completed character sheets so were're ready to go.

 

[Davachido]

Alright cool, I will take a look at the article and think how to bring it into the background.

Edit: Which Kalashtar stats are you using? The ones from the unofficial guide or just a converted 3.5 races since I don't remember PF actually having rules for Kalashtar.

 

[Scotley]

I'm thinking of going with an Inquisitor. Just trying to figure out how I want to tie in to Eberron and the background you've given.

Same as 3.5, but you get to add +2 to any one stat, just like humans.
