Also, I just worked out "Verossa" means either "You Red" or "true red" depending on how much it's contracted. Her last name also refers to redness. This makes it sort of embarrassing that she's a brunette with a white/green colour theme.

EDIT: And if it's "true Red" (most likely), then it's really embarrassing that she's a bastard.

Yep, I just need to read over the last couple of character sheets.
I'm not having trouble reading the sheets, but then again, I haven't tried to edit any of mine in a couple of days.

Ok, have just been looking through my notes, and having 5 PC's is proving to be be a hassel for scaling, so I've decided to add a player, I have invited EE to join in, but if any of you have suggestions as to another player I'll be happy to see if they are interested .

I apologize for my absurd lateness to this gathering, and I am quite overjoyed at this.

Would a Paladin of Freedom/Sorcerer be out of place here?
Or rather: Do we have a Buffer? Paladin of Freedom/Bard/Various PrC's, is a build I've wanted to do, with plot items based around the Regalia of the Hero from MIC.

(4d6b3)[9]
(4d6b3)[14]
(4d6b3)[8]
(4d6b3)[12]
(4d6b3)[7]


I'll check everyone's posted ideas and get a build up when I can

Welcome at last EE!
So far we have a Tank (Knight), Blaster (Warlock), Defense Gish (Hexblade), Illusionist (Moble Movie Theatre hehe ) and a possible Healbot is Wordplay is still with us.
Always keep meaning to look up this Paladin of Freedom thing... might do that now....

EDIT: Ok, just checked it out, and yes, I'll allow it. It only has slight changes which wont make much difference.

Sorry it's been a while since I checked in guys, I've been working on my character, though. I had a bunch of RL stuff; was busy directing an amateur play, but that's finished now.

Here's my first cleric: Raif Clearsight. He's still a bit of a work in progress: still need to do items, finish feats.

Just letting you know I am doing an Inspire Courage based Buffer build, and Perform Oratory. and I am NOT using Dragon Fire Inspiration, both to make your life easier (+8d6 fire damage is SCARY), but for my character (No Draconic Ancestry to speak of, nor is it important).

@Arranis: LOL!!! And next weeks Premier: Aboleth Rider .

@Wordplay: Good to see your still here . Just wondering what god your character is going to be a Cleric of, cant remember any that offer Trickery and Healing as domains off the top of my head.

@EE: Sounds good! And I've always found Dragon Fire Insperation to be annoying. Also, remember you can take average for your HP if it's better than your rolls.

A bard, an illusionist, a compulsive liar cleric and a hexblade. Warlocks aren't any slouches at bluffing either.

We're going to be a tricky bunch aren't we?

Among our chief weapons are deceit, intimidation, misdirection, and fanatical devotion to the Pope. Who nobody expects! Now tell us where the treasure is or I feed you your own lips!"

Okay Machuchang, don't worry, just lie still, you won't feel anything as your characters tongue is stripped from their mouth... Or we could just reverse a truth potion and make a lying potion... I am personally fine either way.

Hey! I'm not inherently deceitful! Even if I maxed out the skills appropriate for social deception...

I'm going for more the "War Commander" feel, directly effected by the Evil League of Evil's war, to smite freedom, etc. he will take up arms and an army of like minded rebels to fall in his stead as he seeks the items to show his heroic and noble status to all observers!

And being CG some mild unethical manuverings to get the job done aren't out of the question... but short of it is, he is not the Bard you grew up with.

Also, I am going for Words of Creation. Which is half the reason I am taking Paladin of Freedom, other than the added Melee bonuses, Smiting, and more importantly, CHA to saves.
I'm fluffing it as his words and path being blessed and approved of by Kord.

Marlowe... if we have to reverse a truth elixer on Machuchang, that doesn't mean we won't use a normal truth elixer on you.

No, i would imagine we would use half the truth elixer on Marlowe, then reverse it and use the rest on you.


And if you REALLY want high bluff and social skills (at the expense of being a bit of a munchkin), multiclass one level into Marshal for the "Motivate Charisma" minor aura, gives your charisma mod again as a bonus on social skills (on you AND the party). Meaning a possible +10 on bluff at first/second level (without ranks). Power Gaming, sure, but hilarity is bound to ensue.

@D_Man: Only good things can occur after that.

On a different note, finally finished that darned character sheet, sort of. Still may want to buy some more stuff or edit backstory. But in the meantime, say hello to Dame Eleanora Worthe of Stonehold!

I apologize for the weird stats, I was aiming for battlefield control, of a sort. I hope she's tanky enough.

As for her enemies:

Okay everyone, with some extreme thought put into it, I have changed my eldritch spear to Beguiling Influence (+6 on Bluff, Diplomacy, Intimidate for 24 hours). +15 on bluff should rival that of your hexblade Marlowe .

P.S. I hope this doesn't turn into a lying competition or who can keep the most secrets or trick eachother into revealing their secrets... this could end up being dangerous for everyone.

@EE & Machuchang, Don't worry I'm sure there will either be an evil doer outside (not including current company), or some wonderful architecture for you to look at while all of this is going on.
