[3.5e: Eberron] The Forgotten Forge (and beyond!)

Ah. Well, I don't even have UA, so taking it "from" UA doesn't really work for me. But if you want to propose (in a PM, don't need to clutter this thread) a corresponding penalty, I'll consider it as a house rule. If you decide to use the same penalty UA does, well, that's between you and WotC.

Character Name: Jos (Lake Palmer)
Race: Changeling (Half Elf)
Class: Illusionist
Alignment: Neutral ideally(but sometimes alignments are too restrictive)

Character Concept: Spell casting bounty hunter under the guise of a street performer


The only way Jos was able to tolerate the rubes that pass by the cart where the half elf face plied his trade, cup and ball, find the red playing card, and sometimes straight up magic on slow days. Today was far from slow, but there was a very low profit for the day, Jos needed a nice bounty to fill the coffers for the day.

Jos had seen these dwarves in and out of the various pubs near him, they'd been force to tour the bars for causing disturbances all over the neighborhood. Lake began to follow the crew of four, he knew he could make a small bounty for 4 drunks, but he could make way more for one murderer, and he knew just how to set it up. It wasn't long before the dwarves who where removed from the pubs couldn't find an inn where they could stay and were forced to take up residence in an alley. Once they passed out Jos donned the face of the largest of the 4. A quick illusory din to ensure witnesses in the late night, and the perpetrator's weapon soaked in blood, not to mention an imaginary half elf rushing into the alley, and Lake had the drunk in hand cuffs.

The hardest part was ushering the drunken man into the jail where he could hand him over to officials, "Straight lines dammit!" Lake shouted at the bearded drunkard. "I've got a nasty murderer here,caught him just barely too slow to stop him from murdering his drinking buddies," he hands the weapon over to the officer he spoke with and flashed his ID, to show he was an approved bounty hunter, "I only wish I could have stopped him sooner." He shakes his head. After spending a few hours filling out paperwork and answering questions Lake made his way home, lucky they hadn't used any magic to detect the truth on him, the witnesses usually helped that.

I still want to work on it, but I think this is a good first draft.

Not that I need it as I am going to go pretty much straight cleric.

Would you allow some of the stuff that is in the Click Tools > 3.5e SRDSRD that is from UA.

They have some Class Variants in there and stuff like that

If it's a small "tweak" style change, I may approve it; send me a PM with the proposal. But I don't want to open the door to large changes -- either in number or quality -- from the core rulebooks I laid out above.

I'll do more in a bit, getting my ideas in order.

I assume by "Illusionist" you mean a Wizard with a specialty in Illusions? That's what I was referring to why I referred to "Illusionists" in out PM discussion.

Re: alignments... yeah, as Embrodak already pointed out for us, alignments are a lot looser in Eberron, so I think Neutral will fit just fine.

Love the character concept, looking forward to the completed application.

Accepted.

Go ahead and continue refining it, as you wish. Hopefully we'll hear back from some of the others soon as well as getting a game forum.

Character Name: Jhonsin Hawklin
Race/Class/Alignment: Elf/Rogue/Nuetral Good

Character Concept The ever skillful rogue with his many talents in communicaton and detection. The elf and his increased abilities only enhances this character abilities.

Vignette In a small guild hall of the Phiarlan in Ariolan an elf sits in a woiting room. For many hours he is left to ponder his fututre. When a low class conman like himself is brought into the bigmans office it can mean two things. He is going to be killed or he is wont be heard from again. Its worse to run, always worse to run. No one gets away from the Phiarlan, your in for good. The door cracks and in walks a shadowed figure. It was probably a good thing, this figure might be a friend. "Jhonsin Hawklin, you are to enter." He stepped aside allowing Jhonsin to enter. The room was equally shrouded with a burly figure sitting in a very comfortable chair. "We need you in Sharr." The burly man said. Jhonsin could not detect any hidden meanings. "You will contacted there." The man turned back to documents made of gold lettering. The shadowed figure showed him out and left Jhonsin in the street. With distress he hurried home gathered his things and hit the rode. Maybe if he made it far enough Jhonsin wouldn't have to worry about them changing their minds.

That's three, just need one more. We've had three with interest expressed already, so I expect we'll have one by tonight. How long it takes to get our game forum, I'm not sure...

For anyone else still preparing an application (or reading this in the near future), go ahead and submit an application if you want even after I've accepted a fourth. If we end up needing you as a replacement or to expand the party, I'll contact you first before to see if you're still available before soliciting new applications.

Character Name: Troz Loggir
Race/Class/Alingment: Dwarf/Fighter/Lawful Neutral

Character Concept Even though the days of the Last War have come and gone, Troz is not able to put aside what he lived through. He finds it difficult to settle down into a routine as his mind tends to wander in the past or just go blank from time to time. Troz finds himself traveling the countryside in search of greener pastures, which in his current condition would be a warm bed and a steady job. His wandering feet have brought him to Sharn.

Introduction Troz found his way to the bar, he always did. It was simple enough place to find in most places, and this city would not be any different than the ones he had just come from. There he sat, in a corner. By himself. His pint of ale three quarter's gone. Waitress. He spoke, not to loud to yell, yet not to quiet for her not to hear across the room. I'll have another! She just nodded. When she came over with a mug in her hand and a half hidden worried expression on her face. All Troz could do was reach into his satchel and fetch the coins she was clearly waiting for. Troz placed the coins on the table and reached for the mug. This place seems pretty light on security. he said. Ahe master dwarf, it is. Its been like that for a while now. Not much happens these days. She replied as she took the coins making sure they were real. I'm looking for some work, would you happen to know somewhere in town where I might be able to help with security? Troz asked, as he took a good size drink. Been no need here, or most of the city for that matter sir. We have had quite a few vets come through over the past months. Most of the work has been done or has dried up. I'm sorry. And with that she was gone, summoned to another table, and Troz left to ponder his next move. I'll have to find something soon. He thought to himself. His mind went blank as he stared off for a couple minutes. People often asked him what made his eyes go blank. He had no answer, as neither he had an answer as to where he might go to now. He was running out of options.

I find it amusing that our rogue is the "Goodest" of the party, at least as far as "official" alignment.

Now we just need to wait for the mods to give us our forum...

Anyone else, go ahead and submit reservist applications if you want. I enjoy reading the character concepts and vignettes. Even if you don't get called up for full time duty, I might invite you for a cameo if you impress me.

[Embrodak]

Something tells me the mods have created the forumn.

[Breithen]

Ha. Thanks. I'll get things setup this evening/tomorrow morning and we can get started.

[Nikolasthe17th]

Cool, thanks.

[Breithen]

Ok, I've set up the game. You can find it at http://www.rpgcrossing.com/forumdisplay.php?f=10474.

I'll be leaving this thread open over the weekend to allow applications by potential backups (heaven forbid we end up needing them). Then I'll close it and request archival.
