Default A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor

WARNING: Please do not post before I give the "all clear" post, as there is so much that I'm posting for this, it wouldn't fit into one post (and that's saying something, since the normal limit is something like 50000 characters). Thanks for understanding!

So I've been looking all over this forum and a few others, and it seems like nobody has made a Cardcaptor Sakura class system. To solve this, I propose my own which I've been working on for a while. Please tell me what you think.

So without further adieu, I give you, The Cardcaptor.

NOTE: Clow is pronounced "Crow."

Spoiler




Note: This is still a work in progress. I am still making the spell list for the class, the rest of the class features, the skill list, and the attribute specialization. Any help would be appreciated.

Changelog:

To give you a bit of a sampling of what I've got, here's two cards which, while unfinished, do have basic stats for both powers and active forms.

The Dash:
Stat Block: same as cat with a few differences: Higher base land speed, Card Powers(ex), etc.

Clow Power: Can cast Expeditious Retreat on Cardcaptor who uses card at will, does not stack...

Sakura Power: Still working on it, either Mass version, MUCH higher speed boost, or maybe both...


The Sweet:
Stat Block: Basically the same as Pixie with a few differences: no sleep arrows, Card Powers(ex), etc.

Clow Power: Create Food and Water at will...

Sakura Power: Can cast Heroes' Feast once per day.


What do you think?

I'm currently Working on a Spell List for this class, and have made the Alpha List. I plan to cut out many of them, but before I do, I thought I should ask you what you think. Please note that some of the spells on the list are just there to help me remember the abilities of some of the cards, so if you see a spell that looks like it's just a restatement of a Card's Effect, don't worry about it.

Anyways, here's the Alpha List.
Spoiler


So, what do you think?

P.S. Why only to level 6? Because I'm thinking of changing casting to Bard-like, rather than Sorcerer-like. Do you agree?

Hey Lestro! I just registered so I could respond on this thread! I love what you're doing so far.

Your card effect example seem good so far. As for the spell list, I'm not ENTIRELY sold on the 6th level spell cap. Both because there's Cards that arguably go over it, and because Sakura was meant to be the most powerful magician in the Clamp Multiverse after succeeding Clow Reed (and given that dude has Wish as a spell-like ability, WOAH).

Then again, I understand the need for spell balance. But if you're going to put a cap on the spell levels instead of allowing 9th level spells, I would put the cap at 8th level. Minimum.

But that's just me.

Also, fun fact. You're actually not the first person on this board to attempt a Cardcaptor class, though yours is more detailed. kwanzaabot posted a build in 2008. It's here

Thank you for the compliment and welcome to the playground; "you'll like it here."

Also, thank you for showing me this; before posting this, I tried to find another Cardcaptor class, but couldn't find any. Thanks for finding what I could not.

Hehe, you're welcome. And though I just registered, I've been lurking for years! You can pat yourself on the back, it means I find your current project to be top tier intriguing!

Hopefully that link helps serve as a guide or contrast in future edits. I can't wait for this to be complete and playable!

I don't see any that I'd cut. I notice there is many more arcane spells than there are divine spells. I understand that a lot of these are actually card effects or otherwise be cut, in the final product I'd try to keep the Arcane:Divine ratio as close to 1:1 as you possibly can, given the fluff about how intertwined they are in the entire class.

Agreed. That's something I've been aiming for from the beginning. I'm also working on a Character Flaw called Fear of Ghosts, which the stat block for Sakura will most certainly have.

Also, what do you think about adding an ability that enables the spell Shillelagh to apply to their Sealing Wand (I just updated again to include what type of equipment each Sealing Wand is; the Bird and Star versions both count as clubs, while the Guardian, being 3 meters long, counts as a quarterstaff)?

To put line breaks in a table, use the code [br]. I would however note that there is an error with the code for the forums which causes it to change to <br> any time the post is edited or previewed before posting, requiring that they be changed back each time (as the <br> does not convert to a line break).

Anyway, I like the look of the class in general so far. I would however be interested in seeing a version that is less made to follow the events of the manga/show instead just being a character that draws on the power of the Clow Cards like a member of this class (though such a version can wait till the current one is completed along with the cards).

Thank you so much! This will enable me to rapidly increase the rate at which this is made.

Do you have any objections to the spell list in its Alpha form, and what do you think the highest spell level should be?

Please note that this class is supposed to be Tier 1.

If Tier 1 is the goal, then why are you limiting the spell list at all? Instead of limiting it on a scale basis, I'd do so on a fluff basis, like "Cardcaptors cannot cast Necromancy or Raise Dead-type spells" or something.

Here is a picture, it's called the Headdress of the Madoushi:

Personally, I'd rather you focused on making the class complete and playable before getting sidtracked by statblocking NPCs, artifacts, and the like.

If you had to do an artifact though, I would recommend Kaho Mizuki's Moon Bell, since it was created by Clow Reed to serve a vital plot function in the Final Judgment and whatnot.

MAJOR UPDATE!!!!! YAY!!!!!

I've added card info for multiple cards, and am proud to announce that The Big, The Little, and The Dash are almost complete, with The Dash being the closest.

Advice needed for specific cards...only cards that don't need this are The Firey, The Watery, The Windy, The Earthy, The Sweet, The Nothing, The Nameless, The Hope, The Jump, The Sword, The Shield, and The Fly. All other cards are in need of assistance. Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Default Re: A New Base Class: The Cardcaptor

Yay, an update! I was starting to get worried for this project! Alright, lemme take a crack at this.

The Shadow should be easy enough. There's plenty of Shadow powers in D&D you can slap on, and you could even perhaps have Shadow Walking at a Sakura power...or perhaps have the Sakura power be something like combining with or assisting Illusion...

...With Illusion being self explanatory, and it's Sakura powers being (with Shadow's help or not) something like Shadow Conjuration and other powers where illusions are "partially real"?

In any case, "Greatest Desire" should be a Clow ability for Illusion, where it projects what the target most desires and wants, even if the Cardcaptor doesn't know what it is.

Float...I'm thinking Feather Fall, Levitation, and the like.

Song can replicate a Bard's class abilities, like Inspire Courage or something. It creates music through a Ghost Sound effect.

Shot is Magic Missle.

Change = Mind Switch. Maybe Polymorph as a Sakura power?

Voice can be stuff like Magic Mouth.

Lock should be simple enough. Wizard Lock and the like. As a Sakura power, perhaps things like Imprisonment and Freedom?

Create should be simple. The Creation powers, from Minor to True, depending on what you feel appropriate.

Move can have stuff like Mage Hand and Telekinesis.

Maze obviously needs the Maze spell. C'mon now. :D

Through should stress Etherealness, as a way of passing through objects.

Plenty of powers to use for Dream. Perhaps simple Dream spells, and it's Sakura power includes the epic power of Dreamscape?

Light and Darkness should work in tandem, however you plan to use them.

That's my preliminary shot. Is this helpful?

The Shadow should be easy enough. There's plenty of Shadow powers in D&D you can slap on, and you could even perhaps have Shadow Walking at a Sakura power...or perhaps have the Sakura power be something like combining with or assisting Illusion...

...With Illusion being self explanatory, and it's Sakura powers being (with Shadow's help or not) something like Shadow Conjuration and other powers where illusions are "partially real"?

In any case, "Greatest Desire" should be a Clow ability for Illusion, where it projects what the target most desires and wants, even if the Cardcaptor doesn't know what it is.

Float...I'm thinking Feather Fall, Levitation, and the like.

Song can replicate a Bard's class abilities, like Inspire Courage or something. It creates music through a Ghost Sound effect.

Shot is Magic Missle.

Change = Mind Switch. Maybe Polymorph as a Sakura power?

Voice can be stuff like Magic Mouth.

Lock should be simple enough. Wizard Lock and the like. As a Sakura power, perhaps things like Imprisonment and Freedom?

Create should be simple. The Creation powers, from Minor to True, depending on what you feel appropriate.

Move can have stuff like Mage Hand and Telekinesis.

Maze obviously needs the Maze spell. C'mon now. :D

Through should stress Etherealness, as a way of passing through objects.

Plenty of powers to use for Dream. Perhaps simple Dream spells, and it's Sakura power includes the epic power of Dreamscape?

Light and Darkness should work in tandem, however you plan to use them.

That's my preliminary shot. Is this helpful?
...

...Extremely.

Also, sorry for not posting in a while. Been very busy with work, etc. I'll try to update more frequently...

Purple is for casting spells of the Thread subtype (like Raise Thread).

I'm not normally a fan of Pathfinder, but can you tell me where I can find the class?
