Re: Æterna Urbis : the Immortal City [Game Request]
So I've been poking at things and since the person who was interested in Helmsman seems to not be around I'm interested in playing an Android https://metzo.miraheze.org/wiki/Construct_Shaper https://metzo.miraheze.org/wiki/Experimental_Engineer Helmsman who's just a full-tilt Freethinker, busting up operations that enslave their brethren on the regular.

If we're using Spheres of Power, honestly my Rat King idea might even better using the Unbodied Wraith I think.

Re: Æterna Urbis : the Immortal City [Game Request]
Sorry for teh late replies had a busy work week.
I apologise taking so long to get back to you, especially considering the outcome. I looked through all of the links, and while the tone of the various brew meshes well my concern is many of them are heavy with various sub systems of brew whether feat options, new martial traditions and unique class features that I think I lack the bandwidth to process. Much of what I have approved from 3.5/Brew are classes/rules/homebrew I am already familiar with so it's not too much for me to take on. These though, for me are a bit overwhelming.. However, that said I do really like the character concept and I think it's something that can be done with other pre-existing/or approved content.
I like the idea and those Helmsman ACF's look good. Have at it!
Assuming they have the ability to select such a mount via feats/class features I don't see why not. Just be aware that within the city "proper" such a mount may have limitations either logistically or culturally. But not more than say any mount might like a war horse mind you. Just keep that in the back of your mind.
Loving the development of team rat. Just curious as to what your thoughts were in actualizing this via Unbloodied Wraith what path were you thinking and were still going Ratfolk/leadership route with just an intangible possessing Rat King? Setting-wise there are what are basically UWs that "ride" robots/constructs. So was wondering how you imagined the class serving your concept. I have no issue with the class btw.
Noted. First pass everything looks good.
Looking forward to seeing the more finished version.
In the next few days I will try to add the table to the first post along with a list of approved brew and updates to the setting information. Following that I'll start going through the sheets in more detail and adding comments/queries.Last edited by TankLaser007; 2024-01-13 at 06:53 AM.

Re: Æterna Urbis : the Immortal City [Game Request]
I will be honest, that was a very dissappointing answer. The basic premise of the character could be a simple Wizard who blew every feat on the umpteen thousand crafting feats necessary to craft magitech, but I wanted to play a more martial version this time. Of all the possible responses, at no point was I expecting "None of the above, make an Artificer".
I mean, option 3 was just a Cerebremancer archetype. Was there a specific reason it was unacceptable?
I'm not going to lie, this was, at best, disheartening...
Edit: After some thought, I'll ask directly. Do you have any preferred crafting classes that get enough crafting feats where they can actually make magitech?
Double Edit- Also, the Machinist was just a slightly altered Swordsage. What was bad about that?Last edited by Zarthrax; 2024-01-14 at 01:46 AM.

Just updating here because I have untreated ADHD and keep flopping around on what my character might be so like... I do want to play in this but who knows if my brain will be ready in time.

Re: Æterna Urbis : the Immortal City [Game Request]
Still working on making the ratstack.. Kinda bouncing between Collective Wraith and the original Daring General.
If I did Daring General, they'd be a musketeer so they get a firearm and get rid of their mount. Banner of the Knave, order of the dragon.
If I did Collective Wraith, the main PC would be sort of a "Rat God"

Re: Æterna Urbis : the Immortal City [Game Request]
Continuing to fiddle with my Heroforge and work on the sheet, back to my original concept of a Living Veil Transcendent because I feel more comfortable with the class now that I've read a lot of Akashic Mysteries the last few weeks.

Has a tentative complete fluff needing polish after I worked on my character's mechanics. Leaving mount stats/skills/feats open to be filled if selected and grown.

Re: Æterna Urbis : the Immortal City [Game Request]
Just checking if by some miracle the prospective DM might pick this up again. One of the most innovative setting concepts I've seen in a while, would love to see it developed further in gameplay.
