I will heap all my skillpoints into Badassery since that's a skill for all occasions.

Good call, Cedric.

I'll get the link to Roll20 up tonight. I have to get some work done for another game tonight, but I should be diligent regardless.

Having all of our considerable arcane power specialized is a good idea, but we should have a little bit of redundancy. A lot of the skills are taking are not usual witch skills, so no arcana or spellcraft. Someone else will have to identify.

Sorry for typos, I'm on my phone.
Primary Cha caster but already discussed it with DM and not doing UMD, but can change if needed. We have a bard, if he doesn't take it then I will.

I will be going big on Know Arcana and Spellcraft. I get the Identify spell at level 3 (bloodline bonus) but as a sorcerer I am very reluctant to get it earlier, partly becuase it is really weird and rubbish for a sorcerer, and partly because I have discussed this with the DM and it is a bit sensible for Carlo's tastes. The Bard can take it, but he is restricted, the Wizard can too, with fewer consequences.

Good on you for making a witch with okay Cha. They strike me as a class which should have some force of personality.

My witch, too, is heavy on the social skills.

I always thought it was strange that they weren't charisma casters. Never made sense.

You don't need Identify to identify magical items, just detect magic and a spellcraft check.

Ah, of course. Well yep, got Detect Magic, going to max Spellcraft, we are fine there.

Not only are witches from stories often charismatic (even the green ones with warts) but they use quite a lot of enchantments which are better from a high-cha caster.

On that subject, anyone planning on taking the spell Unnatural Lust? It still makes me laugh when I read the description.

I'mma be chatting with my Witches about their CHA vs. INT spread.

And XP for each player is going to be dependent on what they've been up to since they met the good Professor. Fair? No, but in my book it's practical. If this is going to be a problem, let me know.

The link to Roll20 can be found here. Drop on by and chat with me, I'll be on for a while. After I do some work elsewhere on the site I'll start on the private threads. Reminder: be sure to turn off your mic and video as soon as you join; don't want anything embarrassing getting out to everyone else.

I won't be putting any points into UMD, not fitting with his character. In fact he will probably be very spell-lite since his charisma ain't the hottest thing. Trying to juggle between some knowledge/Skulking/Diplo while being able to whistle a tune.

Haha, maybe the bard should be INT based?

Well, I wanted the big reveal to be in-game, but for planning purposes I may as well spill all the beans now: you should know that Mara is an If you hadn't guessed a divine class already. After all, Sass wouldn't let the party die so quickly--we need a divine caster to ensure everybody dies a suitably slow and lingering death.oracle. Yep, another character with good charisma. This should be a blast.

"You there, vampire! Stop sucking on that innocent bystander! And have you considered the redemptive power of Sarenrae? By the Dawnflower, yes! You, too, can be redeemed! Now walk with me into the sun, and feel the fires of goodness overcome you!"

And that's how the party won the AP.
