The Theocracy (recruitment closed to those posted)

[ethandrew]

Something with a smaller level adjustment so I could start off with my sneak attack and fiendish servant. I'm open to suggestions if you have any.

Also, keep in mind I've got command undead 8/day, which should help against zmobie minions.

I personally like your character, but another option is having fiend heritage, much like Shayuri and Jemal are doing fey heritage. You don't get nearly as much cool stuff, but at most you'll be sacrificing a level or two. It's in the SRD if you search for bloodlines.

Okay, I've updated Arast to the finished version complete with fluff: http://www.enworld.org/showpost.php?p=3484342&postcount=106

Just so you know, prepared spells are very provisional - if we're starting the game on a mission that we'll have been forewarned of then I'll alter them to reflect what Arast would actually have memorised in preparation for that mission.

Also, as far as I know we've still had no answer on HP. How do we calculate em?

 

[Mista Collins]

Noon today? Guess I better finish the ranger up.

EDIT: Here is part of him. Hopefully you don't mind. I thought I had until the end of the day. I won't be back until later this evening from a softball tournament.

Insight- We won't be fighting against hordes of uncontrolled undead. I figure you control the source, you control the problem. Having a telepath, especially one as potent as yours, would only be an asset. Your paladin can turn undead though, if I'm not mistaken!

I wouldn't count on Nathira being able to control very many undead. She only counts as a Cleric 1 in terms of turning undead (she only has 4 levels of Paladin).

I wouldn't count on Nathira being able to control very many undead. She only counts as a Cleric 1 in terms of turning undead (she only has 4 levels of Paladin).

I think we should be fine, being as we have three people who can dominate the minds of people quite efficiently. I figure if my Latham is put up against 30 zombies with an evil ONE cleric running the show, he'll dominate the cleric, then maintain control of the 30 zombies, which are now assets, instead of enemies.

It's all hypothetical, though.

But my cohort that I'm building right now, he's not as potent as I'd have hoped, but against undead he's still swinging a 15' reach dealing 6d6+16 against undead with great cleave, so hopefully he'll take care of crowd control.

My submission is basically what's on page 1 of this thread. I'm going to repost everything in a more complete format when I get a chance.

 

[WarlockLord]

Deadline is closing.

You don't get time to prepare spells at the beginning, you already have 'em ready.

Don't worry, I won't totally screw the mind controllers. Soldiers aren't that strong for will saves, after all.

 

[Mista Collins]

Is later this evening fine? I'm off to a softball tournament and won't be able to finish him until this evening. I have a very rough part of him up a few posts up the thread.

 

[WarlockLord]

go ahead. I've got enough stats to start running the campaign, unless we need cohorts.

 

[ethandrew]

Here's a real quick overview of Latham's cohort, Dehg. If you like him, good, I'll keep him. If not, let me know and I'll scrap 'em.
