Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
Well, my first VC entry since the Henchman round is out there. I'm relatively pleased with how it came out.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
I got one entry in. Another two I have written up, but couldn't type them up.
The other one I would have entered was an Anthropomorphic Snapping Turtle with various Weapon Masteries and maneuvers. :)The beatings will continue until morale improves!

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
Had an idea for a Hebi-no-Onna (Sorcerer-stylr casting with a Wu-Jen list) Soulcaster, but got discouraged due to the way the thread is going, as it would likely just get lumped as a Naruto/Wizard instead of what the actual character could have been.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
I wasn´t too satisfied how my build would develop in the later levels.
The CR 5 block I was aiming for did a good job at depicting what I wanted, with the Dark Creature Doppelgänger as a base, 2 levels of Shadowcaster,1 level of Mindspy ans some Shadow Hand stuff via feats, that gave of the creepy "mystic ninja" feeling I was aiming for.
The CR 10 block had more Mindspy and a 1 level dip of Bladedancer for the added agility and mobility.
Beyond that, t was just more levels of Shadowcaster and I found that totally unsatisfying, as it altered how the build would be used.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
Congratulations. I have an inkling to which one it is. I'll see if I'm right after the reveal
I tried desperately not to do ninja turtle because I assumed everyone else would be doing it.
I ran into a similar problem while tooling around with shadow sun ninja. After a point, I just didn't feel like I was really putting my thumbprint on it.I've got a new fantasy TTRPG about running your own fencing school in a 3 musketeers pastiche setting. Book coming soon.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
Seems like I simply cannot submit without finding a little mistake after the reveal. Thurbane: congrats on submitting and good luck to you! Also I am happy to see two potential judges.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
I was specking out an evolved skin kite by adding a bunch of grapple boosters and ambush tactics. I was going to make a bunch of "ninjas" based on that. But it wouldn't play like a ninja as much as it would as a horror campaign arc. On the plus side, I have this skin kite ready to send against my players.

And we are past the powerful number too! Inconceiveable!!A neutron walks into a bar and says, “How much for a beer?” The bartender says, “For you? No charge.”

I am now sad I didn't think to create Ninja Brian for this... If ever there was an opportunity, I missed it.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
At first glance, I instantly thought of an old gestalt concept I had; a play on 'The Batman'. The Wombat.
Feral Whisper Gnome, using Shadow Cloak Knight racial sub levels and a Brass Steed as the Wombat Mobile.
Couldn't really seem to make it all fit here though.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
I think this may have been eaten in the inbox issues, so I'll just ask here - for Arukōru no Honō, could you please point me to the source on Past Life Unique Ability? This is one I haven't heard of, and Google is being no help. (Send it on to the chairman when you get a chance).

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
I had a half-baked idea around a Swiftblade, what with all the incredible miss chances this class gives, like all lightning fast ninjas :)
By the way, this round made me discover the Ninja of the Crescent Moon class, which was featured once or twice in the builds. What a powerhouse of a class, be it from a Rogue or from a Monk's point of view!VC XV, The horsemen are drawing nearer: The Alien and the Omen (part 1 and part 2).

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
Man, no wonder I didn't see Ninja of the Crescent Moon. I was paying too much attention to stuff that didn't get updated from 3.0 edition. That's such a good class for Ninjas or ninja-wannabes.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
My build (which unfortunately I couldn't really get working right and wouldn't have done well anyway) was gonna be something like Dark Whisper Gnome Rogue 2/Artificer 18. Intention was to make a character who crafts their own items by stealing from evil aristocrats and dragons and the like and using it to enact a campaign of brutal vigilante justice across the kingdom, very intentionally going for a "Batman turned bad" vibe in both mechanics (I had a customizable utility belt more or less planned out for each of the showcase levels) and in personality/behavior/playstyle. Research your opponents, never go in blind, always be ten steps ahead of everybody else, don't let them ever know you were there until well after you're gone. I found a lot of really neat spells to bring in as either limited-use items, consumable items, or just straight up continuous items.
Of course, for multiple reasons, the build was expected to tank on Elegance (was thinking of throwing a second template on there, had some cross-world feats in the same build, the Rogue dip that's mechanically necessary and important to the fluff but is still a dip, etc), and I know judges would'v given me flack for a major dependency on items.Last edited by AvatarVecna; 2017-08-19 at 01:54 PM.

Re: Villainous Competition XXII: I Am The Night!
Three builds judged, will start on the fourth tomorrow. Sorry this is taking longer than usual, I've failed a Fort save against some sort of horrible plague over the last few days.
