Roleplaying GamesThe all-purpose forum for general advice or system-independent (or multi-system) discussion. Come discuss adventure plots, gamemastering dilemmas, or player advice here. For ruleset-specific discussions, see the subforums.
I'm honestly surprised no one is questioning mine or asking what exactly happened or went on.

And I'll repeat myself. Whatever happened, if you ended playing as Alex, you must have had an awesome time Hell, there's even a homebrewed class that simulates the abilities of Blacklight and it actually does a reasonably good job at it. You may want to try it.

Yeah, I've seen the class you're talking about (blacklight warper, correct?).I though it has some formatting and logic issues with it (claws mutation doesn't actually give claws , but has upgrades for your claws, Superior Unarmed strike is odd, Crush doesn't have an action cost, and a few others). Considered fixing it and reposting it before, but I lost faith in my skill as a 'brewer after my first PRC was an utter failure.
Yeah, it was some sort of cryo-hellhound we encountered, at 2nd level. I went to go pole vault between the two trying to get one to hit the other and then them fight each other so we could run. The plan didn't quite work out.

I was a bit stuck for a character concept, so I went with "female Steve Irwin (or grown up Bindi) if he became a vampire". The DM struggled a bit with the idea of a vampire who wasn't drop-dead (boom boom) gorgeous, scantily clad with enormous boobs. And also everyone else was really, really evil. Instead, ol' Shazza ended up being a complete moron who accidentally sold (or is about to accidentally sell) her entire soul to a horrific vampire-hunting monster.
Also her arm got chopped off. By an ally.
Well, since I'm lazy I'll just put this in some spoilers.
What I made:

Explanation: I'm too lazy to go and find a better symbol for it, so I just used this one for 'androgynous'. The concept was an androgynous member of a class I wanted to playtest.
What the DM saw:

What I played:

I had amazing stats and rolled absurdly well all the time.
I know that. I meant that I want to know how he went from "a lawyer" to "the Doctor."
Well, the key, which it perhaps would have made more sense had I mentioned, is he's a factotum. I'm pretty sure every factotum turns into the Doctor eventually (the ones that don't just specialize in Iaijutsu Focus, anyway). In particular, the parts where the Doctor knows everything and can do anything with his sonic screwdriver and psychic paper and whatever useful doohickeys he happens to have on hand at any given time. Relevant anecdotes:
Jack Jackson has equal points in every Knowledge skill. Much of the time, rather than trying to figure out what sort of Knowledge would be applicable in any given situation, I just say "I'm rolling Knowledge (all the things)". I'm pretty sure that's the only kind of Knowledge check the Doctor ever makes.
I think "digging holes" are to Jack Jackson as "wood" is to the Doctor. We keep needing to dig graves for party members and I keep thinking "Oh yeah, I meant to buy a shovel. I forgot."
Alas, however, no time machine. Yet. It occurs to me that this DM's last campaign did end with time travel, so there may be hope.
Cult of the Playground Highly endorses the ideals of the Tippyverse, World Optimization and "Paradise". its Clerics are encouraged to Optimize everything that they set there sights on. Perfection is our goal.
Gregory Kindly was a great man,
in the end he saved the world, when even his superiors thought it was damned.
Some would say he brought the world to mere inches from World War 4.
But history reads that by his hand every last super weapon was destroyed.
His own last.
