Open Invitation

[MittenNinja]

Alright I think I got my build down.

Wilder5/Pyro7//Ftr4/Slayer8
Aberrant Limbs and Fire-Souled Templates (total of +3 LA bout off by lvl 9)
I'll have the char sheet up soon.

[MittenNinja]

Also, looking through the slayer PrC i'm noticing that all of the illithid specific stuff doesn't really fit the char concept to well. Any way I could drop the favored enemy(illithid) for something else and have illithid sense become warforged and/or elemental sense?

EDIT: Or I guess 32's creators could have just had a grudge against illithids. Nevermind, we'll just go with that. Hmmm, he was created as a weapon to fight against the illithids but they were wiped out before his completion. So he has never actually encountered one, but yet he would find himself surprisingly effective against one if he were to... I like it.

[Surreal]

Yeah... stuff like that just gives Fil an excuse to throw bad guys at us. Some of Sul's equipment was recovered from some spies that tried to kill him, which in turn was likely stolen from the Githyanki in the first place. Fil looks at the backstory for my equipment and thinks "Awesome! Now I can send angry Githyanki riding red dragons and piloting astral skiffs with cannons after you guys!"

[MittenNinja]

Yea, the nice thing about all my equipment is that it's all integrated with 32's construction, everything is either a graft or a warforged component. So in 32's mind they aren't magic items, they are just innate abilities that he has always been capable of.

[Fil kearney]

Illithid are still viable thralls of Daelkyr. So 32 is actually a daelkyr combattant.... how about that? consderi the intentions of the gatekeepers, it is a natural fit that 32 would hook up with the MEP.

Also, If you were to want to find other HEX.... I'd check the free league. SInce this is technically 10 years after the day of mourning, the Lord of Blades has only built up his troops... I don't recall what the number of troops were, but it's rumoured over 5000 now. all doing something in the mournlands. There's bound to be a HEX out there...
plot hooks!

You could even know who Jaelith is, and be interested in finding him as well, since he could get you safe passage to the 'Forged Nation.

so that works.

[MittenNinja]

Sounds good to me.

[Surreal]

I'm sorry to hear about that. I hope she has a swift recovery.

[Fil kearney]

no disappointments. we'll save you a seat.

check yer voicemail.

[Fil kearney]

And now christian officially has a seat if he wants it... otherwise, I'm closing the door again for a while.

[FriendlyFrog]

I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, too. My situation has changed somewhat. It looks like that I'm not going to be able to post regularly. I'm afraid I'm going to have to work two jobs in addition to being a full time student, starting from september. This means that I have to severely cut down the free time I have. Well, I don't expect to have no free time at all, but I believe the one I have to be so irregular I'd eventually only drag the game down a lot, even if I'd try my best. Being nothing but a dead weight doesn't really sound that attractive to me.

[Fil kearney]

LOL no fears, FF. keep us posted in the future, and I wish you great success in educating yerself!

[ChristopherGroves]

In the hopes that a position may open up Fil's suggested I post build ideas here for suggestions, etc.

A couple of caveats - I've played alot of D&D but never Gestalt and never Epic (or really past 15th) so I'm in a strange place there. I do love Eberron ... my current iconic Eberron character is a warforged leaderbot and that's the one I've been focused on for two-three years for the Xendrik Expditions / Blackwheel company. He's a bot-of-faith, so I'm leaning away from too much of a divine/religious connection.

In fact, most of what I've played in 3e in the last few years have been divine casters. So none of that ... and whatever it is will have some pure Eberron content.

Anyway, here are the ideas (in basic form - I have the specific build stubs I'm looking at that I can post in detail later depending on what folks thing sounds cool). I think these work with the liberal gestalt ... but hell I've not done normal gestalt before so I could be totally screwing things up in the liberal version. None of them use a dual-progression class but I do have PrCs on both sides.

Moonshifter
Dreamsight Shifter
Ranger 3 / Swordsage 2 / Weretouched Master 5 / Bloodclaw Master 5 / Warshaper 4 / something 1 // Spirit Shaman 8 / Moonspeaker 12

Pretty self explanatory ... melee on the left and moonspeaker on the right. Lots of shifting, but primarily not in full-on-wild shape.

Orien Mobility Dude
Human sorc gish (pally of freedom from UA or hexblade) with Swiftblade, Sharn Skymage, Arcane Duelist and Dragonmarked Heir. Also either Knight Phantom or Eldritch Knight. Since you can put PrCs on each side, use that to make sure I get 9th level sorcerer spells. Not as strong a gish as the one below, but plenty of free / automagic metamagics on hastes, flys, etc. and both an awesome init check and celerity abuse.

Deneith Dragonmarked Gish
Similar gish, but lawful with monk/pally/etc. with EK, Abjurant Champion, Spellsword and Argent Savant. Has full sorcerer 20 casting and I think a BAB of 20 ... a stronger fighter gish, but the orien one has more movement, etc. options.

Ghaele Eladrin
There was talk about some sort of outsider fitting in and looking at things a Ghaele seems pretty nifty ... 10 HD and no LA (is that right?) I've got no clue if you can advance their existing cleric casting, but something non-casty on one side and then topping out the Ghaele with more casty-enhancing could be pretty nifty. Either martial on the one side or lots of neat abilities. Kinda like to add in Master of Radiance if I could advance the cleric casting.

Had one other idea but fil's suggested it might be a bit off, so that's out.

Thoughts and feedback would be appreciated - I can expand any build that needs more details behind it.

I will, and thanks.

I'd still love to participate by BBEGing the party, if possible. If you need someone to play an NPC for some time, PM me here and/or at the WotC boards, and I'll see if I have time to do it.

[HeadofVecna]

Fil-
I'd like to put a character together for your game. Given all the options it may take a while to complete though. Hopefully by the time I'm done there will be a slot available.

In terms of concept, ideally I'd like to play a traveller from another Prime with a psi/tech flare. The build would probably be something along the lines of Erudite//Artificer unless material from d20 modern is available for adaptation.
