Late night comfy thread. As you are gathered around the fire what does your character do to entertain the rest of the party? Encouraging stories of past glories? Ghost stories? A fine meal? What?
>what does your character do to entertain the rest of the party?
Gets drunk and flirts with the martials
Wyatt Torres
>No John, you are the mechanical monsters Ended up with the Promethean Corruption slowly turning my guy into a steampunk cybernetic abomination. Actually kind of fun to RP the loss of humanity.
Julian Flores
I want to hug Fennec user!
Mason Walker
He tells sailor stories
Ryder Hall
How low must be your Str be to consider Crossbows over Bows?
Thomas Moore
idk dude 10?
Kevin Gutierrez
How do i build a character with a mantis shrimp motif (prismatic powers and supersonic punches)
Ethan Hughes
Are the novels worth reading?
Dylan Morales
Vital strike and crit abuse? Eflux steelfist?
Lucas Reed
C1: tells old myths of his people.
C2: Gets drunk and asks personal questions. Teases the fighter with the skald.
C3: drunken magic tricks.
Chase Taylor
I was thinking more like a strength-based build that can use the shockwaves of punches as ranged attacks
Jaxson Stewart
I say that longbows should require an exotic feat.
Alexander Jenkins
Question how the fuck did the DDS folks think this was balanced: Gyroscopic Totem (totem)
You must spend a spell point to create a gyroscopic totem. Gravitational fluctuation keep enemies within this totem unbalanced while they remain within. An unbalanced creature moves with less grace and agility than normal. They can still move, but entering squares draws attacks of opportunity as if they had left the square, and the creature can not take 5-ft. steps.
In addition, at the end of any movement with a total distance greater than 5 ft., the creature must make a Reflex save or fall prone. If the creature has more than 2 legs, it gains a +1 bonus to this saving throw for each additional leg, and creatures that are flying, crawling, swimming, or burrowing are unaffected, as are creatures that are not affected by gravity, such as incorporeal creatures. Teleporting creatures do not draw attacks of opportunity because of this totem.
Nicholas Wood
Sounds 3pp. Mithral Current.
John Nelson
Body pact avowed with pulse refluff?
Easton Roberts
That sounds fun as fuck to use with an AoO reach gish build
Josiah Russell
Have you followed John Wick's advice to PM THEM yet?
Jaxon Bailey
I gave up on having a THEM a long time ago.
Elijah Perry
I PM all of them at least semi-regularly.
David Martin
Personally, I'd say bows only really start to outshine crossbows at +2 Str and higher.
Austin Walker
Everyone in the party equipped with halberds, yes or no?
Aiden Stewart
Who will be the first to Ba(i)nepost in Iron Gods?
Bentley Gray
Words to live by, Baba Yaga.
Joseph Brown
I am a big fan of everyone having a reach weapon, a ranged weapon, and a dagger or 4. A spare mace/sword would not hurt either.
Grayson Rogers
A big guy duh
Grayson Wilson
Would a Cossack know about military tactics beyond raiding, guerrilla, unorthodox and irregular stuff? Would working alongside mercenaries allow him to learn standard tactics besides his thin?
Owen Robinson
Potentially contentious opinion: Remove Disease should be a Necromancy spell, not conjuration, even if the people in the world of Golarion wouldn't understand why since they have no concept of germs.
Colton Turner
What's your character nickname? Do NPC give nicknames to your characters and your party?
Luke Harris
Well you see, a nickname is usually shorter
Nicholas Thompson
I suppose it depends on how you're going about it. If the spell is killing the disease, then Necromancy yeah. If it's bolstering the immune system to fend it off, conjuration would be the ticket.
Unless of course you're of the opinion that healing should be under necromancy like it was back in ye olde days.
Jeremiah Flores
Usually one of the following
Julian Gutierrez
"Johnny Moneybags"
Jaxson Rivera
It's an Instantaneous spell, so even if the logic was that it was boosting the Immune system I doubt that it would make it so that your system's white blood cells attacked every pathogen in you at once, it's killing the disease in an instant with the magic.
Kevin Evans
Also true. And if I recall, Remove Disease doesn't interact with the subject's fortitude at all, just a check vs the disease's DC.
So it's just magic vs disease, so necromancy, yeah.
Levi Martin
>no Vick Lagina Come on, man.
John Nelson
Should all characters start at lvl 1?
Dylan Fisher
There is a character limit! Gosh
Mason Sanchez
I PM them whenever I can a) think of something to say, b) not feel like I'm bothering them, and c) not feel like I'm embarrassing myself.
So not as often as I'd like. But I still do. They're wonderful.
Adam Roberts
Absolutely not.
Jackson Parker
Members of the same party should start at roughly the same level.
Carter Young
What about new additions?
Carter Gutierrez
The exact same level as everyone else.
Ryder Rodriguez
Half-Giant's been called Big Red by one party member, since he's like, 8 feet tall and has red hair and armor. He's called Runt by the shortest member of the party.
Punchgirl was called Slabwoman by a cranky mage because she's very muscular. Was also called Little Red because she has red hair and she's much smaller than Big Red is. She joined after he retired.
We don't get many nicknames from NPCs, though we have a few amongst ourselves.
Jayden Williams
At the current level of the existing party.
Evan Sanders
Fuck me, my app's sandwiched between Kawase and Wubu. May as well withdraw now.
Benjamin Cox
Who the fuck is Wubu?
William Wilson
Why would you care
Christian Hall
Any excuse to namedrop.
Robert Turner
What would be the most common trade goods? Which ones would make you more money?
Andrew Brown
>my app is sandwiched between literally who 1 and literally who 2
Charles Davis
PF is not really set up to do that. It would take a bit of DM fiat and possibly some homebrewing to make it work.
Your best bet would be something like bringing silks to the cold north and bringing furs/gems/precious metals from mountains to the coast. Or food to hungry people.
You might even scrape the whole thing and just make magic items to sell.
Jack Wilson
Kawase's app is another one of his trademark character steals with little regard for what other party members might be. Don't worry about it man
Cooper Wood
wait what a character steal?
Adrian Lewis
Mine would get drunk and tell silly stories like how he lost his virginity with his half-orc girlfriend
Nolan Price
He outright yoinked a character from Overlord Even left her real name in her backstory, for god's sake
>>Chink and fuckslut thread never shuts up about >>literally who 1 and literally who 2
I see you're new.
Kayden Watson
What's her real name?
Aiden Perez
What about Cashmere (pic related)?
Nolan Flores
No really these people don't matter
Jordan Scott
CZ. Android battlemaid from Overlord
Jaxson Bailey
Oh, upon looking up, he slightly altered it. The original is CZ2128 Delta, his DONUT STEEL is CZ2127 type-Beta
Blake Ross
No wonder it's detailed so heavily, it's just a rip off
Dominic Kelly
But aren't they lewd? That's what matters for celeb status.
Cooper Smith
>its basically a recolor
amazing
Jayden Mitchell
Didn't he get into Journey to the Wist (sorry, West) with a ripoff of Raymoo?
Connor Cruz
No, they're literal nobodies, Kawase is known for being a piece of shit and Wubu just runs blingmaker
Jonathan Price
That's fucking right. How many times has that chink fucker pulled this off?
Ryan Cook
Yeah but Argentum is a touhou fag
Bentley Rodriguez
Then you have. Hemp, Beer, Pottery, Dried Meat, Flour, Fish, Bread.
Daniel Johnson
LINGMENG WAS A 100% ORIGINAL DONUT STEEL
Aiden James
who was C3 a ripoff of.
Ian Morales
He can't help it, he's Chinese.
David Carter
He was constantly rambling about some grey hamsters, dunno otherwise.
Samuel Sanders
Post the link to the lfg?
David Rogers
Will pic related be his starfinder character?
Joseph Mitchell
Source?
Sebastian Reed
I have an important question for you, /pfg/. Out of games still accepting applications, which elf is the most bulliable?
Sebastian Campbell
What kind of classes are suitable for elves? We have a Dwarf Paladin, a Nagajji fighter, a Human Fighter, Human Cleric, Dwarf Berserk, Halfling Wizard.
Jackson Rodriguez
What class would be appropriate for a character that dreams of being the first dwarven astronaut?
Hudson Hall
Magus, whatever int-casters, random roguish shit like Slayer.
Grayson Flores
Best I can tell, nobody. Mehetabel, Brynhildr, and Ecaterina weren't copies of anything either, though Mehetabel and Brynhildr used art that people might recognize.
I actually started well enough but then it started veering into OL territory. It probably didn't help that I was reading Overlord IX at the time.
Be honest, that would be funny.
I made it pretty explicit she wasn't original, like at all. I'm making it pretty explicit CZ isn't original either.
UC Gunslinger maybe, snice they're more like an Engineer class than gunslinger, and would be relatively effective in general. There's a Stargazer trait in Iron Gods too.
James Cruz
Does Darkstar count?
Blake Sullivan
Ranger, Druid, Arcane caster, Hunter all mesh well
Jackson Scott
I don't believe you.
Asher Garcia
That's like saying Sleep just runs Overlewd or Protag just runs Ensoulment.
Ryder Morgan
>weird abomination with magic tails Eh, she partially counts.
Elijah Robinson
but sleep is also in like, other games that matter.
Protag doesn't just run ensoulment, he also gives app feedback
Joshua Long
He gave really threadbare reviews for Ensoulment proper though
Juan Ortiz
Wist is the final boss It will be Journey to the Wist
Jacob Walker
Probably the usual GM thing of not wanting to act biased. I mean, of course they've already chosen their apps weeks in advance, but they don't want to look like a shitter, so they try to tiptoe around what they really think of an app.
Lucas Carter
Nah, protag isn't disk, protag gives them on request in the discord n shit
Thomas Thompson
>snice they're more like an Engineer class than gunslinger, Really, I feel like this sort of thing would have served the gunslinger a lot better than shitty grit and deeds back when Ultimate Combat came out. a character that can mod up equipment in nonmagical ways would have been a great support thing while still being personally capable.
I think that's why i'm so excited for the Mechanic and soldier in Starfinder. they both seem to be what gunslinger should have been from the beginning.
Charles Russell
Also the only thing I really "stole" was the art and the build, and even then it's like a mix of Narb and CZ. I mean, emotionless bot isn't really original or unique at all, and Eclair is like an easter egg.
I'd say Protag is an okay sort, he wouldn't do that. And by threadbare I mean that he generally tried to, from what I'm seeing in thread and personally, help you express your application better and tell you what bits worked and didn't work with your application in terms of like, tone or something. It wasn't like his other reviews which were hyper detailed and analyzed the character's faults and strengths, which he did for me when I asked after app period closed but not before, so I assume that's what was going on with everyone else too, which is fair - you can't have the DM telling you how to improve your app in a competition, especially considering it's a tone-heavy game so if you miss it then the DM fixing it won't help, you the player wouldn't catch it anyway.
I dunno about Soldier being Gunslinger+, but Mechanic looks really good. I'm pretty sure Gunslinger was going for some weird cowboy thing but that should've been an archetype, since it is literally a [character] archetype. UC Gunslinger is basically Engineer though, one of the things you can grab is a ducking car.
Ayden Hughes
Who's your favorit character for Iron Gods so far, /pfg/? >Kromas Ironbrand - Robot hating preacher man. >Conall Cernach - A caring and loving da... erm, big brother. >Diarmuid Mac Gearailt - Fey powered luddite hippy. >Leondra Troescu - Wizard with the magic tats. >Miniel Elerdiir - Psion who doesn't believe in science. >Semzaya Baine - A big summoner for you >Portentia Procchus - Sultry sorceress >Erecura (CZ2127 TYPE-δ) - Suspiciously familiar robo-maid >Kazulki - Space man from the planet 9. >Luthaya - Genie slut with her powers stolen.
Logan Jackson
thank god, the urge to self-shill was getting hard to resist.
