with Barbarian and perhaps Frenzied Berserker on the other side. That or Totem Rager

Does this work?

I dunno what I want for free LA...so I'll get back to you
Flat-out NO on my end on the Tarrasque. He's for me =P
From a quick glance that Monster of Legend isn't as Op as some Dm's claim Creature of Legend (here in Giantitp) is. I will have to make/point out some edits to some abilities as they outright don't mention certain concerns that could potentially make this worse the CoL. (If memory serves, Team Evil requested this/homebrewed one based on it and I had lots of problems with it.)
Horrid Creature is an interesting choice for a 'Good' player, as the source the class if coming from flavors it being a more violent and feral version of Dire animals. I can't see anything wrong with it off the bat, but I think I can okay it.

As for the other side, where is Totem Rager? Besides that, from my knowledge that side is okayed.

I was 60% pro-Tartusque with the understanding that I would ok the madness I was debating for team evil. However, with Igneel voting no, and me being split(I mean, the apocalypse thing? And having times/day based on your con modifier. Storm of Vengence 20/day anyone?)

So, keep looking.

I'm sorry, but I have had Epic experiences with the Tarrasque as a personal character, and have seen what kinds of things it can do.

Not to mention that it currently holds my all time best record for my 'Fun-Builds' War Hulk/Hulking Hurler "Mountain Tosser"... Its in the millions...

In a game of casters and planning, a straight berserker is not going to be the problem. I won't play the lesser version. As such I'm out...no more need to discuss

*Sigh*
Very well then... I'm sorry to lose you, but then I guess there is nothing I can do to make you stay outside of allowing a Monster Class that I don't want used. I wish you luck in your future gaming endeavors and hope that you find what your looking for.

May you roll many a natural 20,

Alright, sorry guys I have been a little MIA for about a week if I remember right. Got really sucked into conversing with a group of friends over at Mythweavers on their game of "Return to the Tomb", along with playing in a "Shadow of Colossus" game myself. I'm a easily distracted DM

So, what kind of status report can I get on this team?

Alright Green and Sil are definitely still in.

Looks like I'm going to have to either send out Pms or start re-recruitment.

Everything above this line is the old thread, mostly doesn't correspond to what the new use for this thread is now. Try to disregard it.
================================================== =======


Alright then, let's reclaim this thread in the name of the new Paladins vs Necromancers game shall we?

Shall we get a roll-call/shout out of who all we have for Team Good?
Maybe even a brief synopsis of what your build might look like?

Doesn't exactly help when the other Team Good members haven't exactly Pm'ed me if they would like to know where the OC thread is...

Anyways, I have several builds that I'm kinda struggling to pick between.

*One largely involves summoning elementals and other Nature's Allies along with spells of course.
*Another was attempting at making a dragon that can tank along with being relatively good and healing/defending allies.
*Smallest swordsman using ToB, Blade Bravo, Confound the Big Folk, & Hengeyokai (sparrow) to be a Fine sized swordsman that is really hard to hit and very nimble.
*Archer-style hunter using Swift Hunter & the Wild Hunt Monster class
*a few other less clear builds.

I see...

Well, I sent a pm to drack asking him if he would have any problems with me having the ability to make artifacts and he was pretty much ok with it.
I havent asked Mr.G but if the other side is ok, he should be.

Besides being insanely fast item creator, i was planning to build more towards a spellcaster and buffer that allowed other players a bigger share in the magic.

The concept was based on a character that defends spirits and souls right to leave when the time was in, aka the complete opposite of matts law firm. I actually had the idea before i knew he changed.
Its not 100% yet, ill try to tie it in with fluff from the classes.

And i actually want to make a feature out of the followers one get. But that is also a insane amount of work lol.

to sum it up:
-Item creator that defends the spirit of the dead
-Spellcaster, that focuses on defenses and sharing
-Leadership, to have followers

And i would like to use a system i have never done before incarnum or binder etc. Binder would fit perfectly as the dark side of the characters personality.
Would be to boring to just hulk out and use some known overpowerd stuff.(ur-priest,beholdermage, etc)

When it comes to the different team, it seems they are minmaxing more then i thought. Its ok, but we should keep it in mind. I saw the mention of frank and k`s tomes. Thats rocket tag on a serious level.

If you want to know more about the build, pm me

He is not. But it doesnt define my character, it was just something i would like to be able to do. Since our gm gaiyamato is pretty busy, i figured i just ask some on the opposing team if they would have a problem with it.
If they are cool with it, why shouldnt the gm be? :)

Alrighty, found the thread.

I am here for the side of good!

Current idea: Arcane trickster Pixie, who defends his home and hearth against all who would defile it. A penchant for trickery and fun.

quite simple now, but expanding upon it. Plan on

I have the crunch done, and sent G. a link but he thought it was overboard....which made me sad, and confused....Sneak attack isn't all that great at higher levels.

Aha! Thread found! I am here for good!

My character is a Gramarist and probably a spellshaper (if allowed; if not, probably psion). For race, I think a multiple personality chaotic good vampire lord should do. Basically, he was improperly turned, resulting in the addition of his "dark" side that should have overwritten his main personality. As the years passed, they reached a sort of accord.

My primary power is the construction of strange and awesome things. Thus, I have what amounts to a starship and custom demiplane. And yes, I can build nukes. I'll probably take leadership, because I can't build everything myself, and followers are useful.

Crunch is sort of done, but I haven't received several crucial answers (allowance of spellshaping, exact level, etc).

I love that class, solely on the fact it reminds me of the Gramaton cleric in Equilibrium.

You care to elaborate on what he deemed overboard?
I have a tendency to go overboard myself from time to time...

I thought vampirelord always was evil, but i think the 16 made it so we could handwaive it away.

I am thinking about playing a Midgard Dwarf, one of the cool features are that they can make artifacts (need to get approved by gm)
Besides that he would be concentrating on spellcasting and i hope to cram in some sort of incarnum\psionic\binder i never tried before. I will be taking runesmith(i think) as well, to be able to share some spells on runes if needed.

He will be concentrating on defending spirits,creating items,and defending the weak. this puts him directly opposite matts law firm. I planned that before he said he changed to that so it could be fun.
Binder fits sort of thematicly but i have never played one..

Hard to get good fluff for a character before its mostly finished. But i plan to have leadership as well.

I know we need to optimize some, the other side had at a point a demilich evolved undead spellcaster... Thats not going easy. Thats why i wonderwhat he considerd overboard.

Typing fast and pretty annoyed,, we are below in the match and it makes me grumpy.

That was actually one of my first thoughts when I saw the name. You could actually make a pretty decent Grammaton cleric with some creativity.

I think there was a clause somewhere that stated even an "always (alignment)" race was only 95% of said alignment. Can't find it now, though.
