Two or three decent paragraphs will be sufficient.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
Would need to finish my elf, but I think I remember in what direction I was going with it.

Adding myself to the table; I had expressed interest a long time back, but not finished my sheet.

I picked Synad (Complete Psionic) as a race because... they're never used, but I could easily change it to something else if for some reason you don't like them.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
Synad is fine as a race.
I had planned to make selections today, but it looks like several people are still building. We also appear to have lost most of the former applicants. So I will give the current applicants a couple of days more to finish. After so long an absence it shouldnt matter if we take a couple more days. Let me know when you are finished so I know I can pick from your application.
But be quick. I want to get the game going soon.Last edited by paradox26; 2024-04-11 at 01:33 AM.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
I was gonna put the backstory off until tonight, but then I just... went and did it. Here goes!
Spoiler: BackstoryThe Rayza family once had respect, wealth, and noble title (Count, specifically). But unfortunately, it also took too much of an interest in the Underdark - and more specifically, of stopping the plans of those living within it. When one too many slave raids were fouled by Rayza retainers, the drow suspected that the noble house had some sort of special insight or information into drow affairs, and that could not be allowed to stand. Thus, House Rayza would be brought down, not by force of arms, but by subterfuge and assassination - and with the aid of another noble family that sought Rayza holdings. The destruction of the family was not complete, however, for there was one survivor - Calliopi Rayza, middle daughter of the family's head. This was largely because she had been sent away to hone her martial skills with a teacher (what else do you do with a daughter as tall and athletic as her, despite her skinniness?) - but when she returned, she found nothing left to claim. She was left with nothing but some money, her mentor, and a cold, implacable desire for revenge.
That determination would be the catalyst for psionic potential - and while this certainly reinforced (or perhaps, merely salvaged) her sense of innate superiority, her psionic nature was mostly a tool for her, a weapon to sharpen into something she could impale drow with. In time, her abilities could only be improved by practical experience, and she set out to work as a mercenary. For a time, she took work protecting maritime vessels - for her family once had a number of cargo and trading ships in their employ, and while she was effectively no longer their employer, some were still loyal enough to give her a job as protector. And she certainly got her share of experience with pirates. Some she coldly dissuaded or intimidated, but the rest she killed with her weapon of choice, a crystal scythe, capable of both elegant grace and horrific dismemberment. In time she moved on from this, however, and went adventuring, taking whatever work would bring her more experience with the Underdark. Eager though she was for revenge, she knew she had to be prepared. Besides, her hated foes were elves. They weren't going to die of old age before she got to them.
By now, she has developed a formidable set of skills. She is a master of her scythe, and is bound to it on a psychic level. Her psionic abilities, indeed, are mostly about augmenting her martial prowess. The scythe is an esoteric weapon, it's true, but she likes it, as a subtle sign that she's different from others... though, to her chagrin, the scythe did once land her a job protecting a farming village, whose people were willing to pay her fee if she also helped out with the harvest. Of course, her travels have also given her experience in a variety of worldly matters, and not just farming. In particular, she's learned how to interact with people. She had always had some training in this, being a noble daughter, but she's since learned how to speak to people without them believing she treats them with contempt. Chilly and aloof, perhaps, but not arrogant. Make no mistake, she holds a good opinion of herself, and though she is a countess of nothing, she is still a noble. But her pride does not outweigh necessity. In the pursuit of her revenge - and of gaining enough riches to build herself a demesne - she'll wade through mud, eat trail rations, hack her way out of slimes (whoever put that gelatinous cube there was a deranged, psychopathic bastard), and try to wash drow blood out of her nice clothes. Those are mere indignities compared to the loss of her family and house.
And thus we have Calliopi Rayza, primarily proficient in scythes, psychic powers, and attacks of opportunity, but also with good social skills - as well as 5 ranks in Profession (Sailor) and 1 in Profession (Farmer) for no other reason than flavor. This is unlikely to be relevant, but it's there.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
Okay, looks like everyone is nearly or completely done. I will be picking tomorrow, so make sure you get the final stuff in. And make sure you have at least some background. I don't normally pick characters without one.
Also, just for the record, there are two assured places already. SamDuke and Lioslaith are assured a place, so I will take three extras, to give as many people as possible a place in the game without it being too overwhelming.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
I know. I quite enjoy answering character build questions during recruitment, and I enjoy the actual gaming. But selection time sucks. Especially because everyone who has applied I have gamed with before, and all of you are solid players.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
I'm gonna push to finish today if at all possible. Gotta revise his spells somewhat, now that I recall this was supposed to be lower-powered (for Epic 3.5) and my Dwarf's spells were to be voluntarily restricted by theme.
Edit: Planned to finish today, got called in to work instead. Oh wellgood luck to those remaining!
Also, some URLs got broken by some weird copypaste error or some such, I believe I have fixed them.

You have a reprieve for the night. I had forgotten I had to attend a football game, and I just got home and it is late here, so I will make my decisions tomorrow.

Re: The Drow War (Epic 3.5)
I have made my picks. I have gone especially for party balance, as I usually do. The submissions are, as is common on this site, excellent. I have taken as many people as I am able to. Will the following please report to the OOC thread: SamDuke, Lioslaith, DrK, Namo, and Athaleon.
Thank you to all applicants. I will ask that you keep your sheets available, so if replacements are required, which is common, then I won't have to start a recruitment thread from scratch.
