Want to spitball builds and backstories? Here's the place to do it.

So I have a character that I want to play, I haven't found a campaign to play him in and because it uses 3pp content I probably won't find one for a while. In short it is an undead who hunts undead. In slightly more detail he is an Obitu and I would build towards the Grim Reaper Prestige class(maybe 3 levels), probably through a paladin(probably a Righteous Flame Acolyte). What I am wondering is what would be the earliest entry into the prestige class and also if anyone would have a game that I could play him in, preferably an undead heavy game where the populace have a highly anti undead prejudice.

Looking at the class it looks like 6th would be the barebones minimum unless you find a 3rd party base class that provides better spell progression then the Ranger AND full BAB.

Basically you can take straight cleric or ranger to 6th level and meet the requirements. I don't see any tricks or feats that would get you to BAB +5 AND ability to cast 1st divine spells AND turn undead or favored enemy...

I have an idea I like. Basicly, a Catfolk Monk who uses his Claws. With a few feats, theoretically, I can dish out some real pain, though it would depend on how the GM rules on how feats stacks.
The story would, in a quick nutshell, he's a Snow Leopard who was raised in a Lion village, and as such, studied and trained as a Monk to even up his disadvantage of strength.

I have gotten inspiration for any number of characters to play but one that came up recently was from the anime "Overlord".  I thought it would be entertaining to build a character based off of Albedo, she hot, dangerous, and completely infatuated with another PC to whom she is absolutely loyal.  I'm not sure the class I would use since it would depend on the particular game and allowed alignments.  While Albedo as she exists in the show would be a LE version of a paladin/anti-paladin, I don't feel that has to be the case to run the character.  I would prefer the game to be adult as that's one of the reasons I enjoy this site, but that wouldn't be a requirement.

That would be kinda cool, she'd probably turn out closer to the show if it was a gestalt game, because she is more a fighty sorceress than a paladin.... I probably would have suggested bloodrager, but she doesn't really rage....

Might be able to build her off of a magus as single class, or do an early entry eldritch knight as well.

I've used a similar idea in some solo parties I've (tried) to play. Basically an evil character believes in a prophecy or what-not that aligns them to another PC.

So what you have is a LE character looking to inflict pain and misery and dispose of the weak but essentially 'forced' to go along with the goody-two-shoes rest of the party, grumbling and complaining the whole time.

The "Jayne" or the "Belkar" essentially.


As for Albedo, another thing to keep in mind is that everyone in that show is evil so it's inherently tough to align to a "good" party. Similar to Disgaea,  it might be a worthwhile character to pitch for an all-evil game where being LE would fit right in...

Yeah, I figure as much, though I think having her align with a "good" party because of the source of her infatuation being a riot.  I could also make her LN and not lose much if I had to, it would work, just not quite as well.

With a pseudo-Yandere I like it better when there is a direct conflict of alignment.

Hell, you could make her CE for zany wackiness as long as you walk that line and don't piss the party off. Put the fun back into dysfunctional :P

 I didn't know where to post this, but I have a few Character ideas just looking for games to play them in. This is a little bit of an AD, but also a chance to discuss and refine the ideas:

 1. Chez Saire: A Chaotic/Neutral Catfolk Illusionist modeled off of The Cheshire Cat, reveling in pulling pranks on and confusing all around him, although is "Calmer" around those he considers his friends.

 2. Quoth: A Tengu Rogue. Speaks in Rhyme. I haven't gotten far of the planning stage, I just thought it'd be fun to be able to "Sneak Attack" with a Greatsword.

 3. Rex Gorrot: Half-Orc Bard, specializing in comedy, specifically sock puppetry. Talks to his Sock puppet partner "Lefty" (On the right hand) as if he is another person.

Those are the ones I have the most complete, but I have all sorts of thoughts and there just are not enough games to fully flex my creative muscle the way I'd like. Anyway, thoughts? Suggestions? Open games? I'd love to hear all about them.

#2 reminds me of The Gamers movie where through a loophole in the rules they sneak attack an enemy with a siege weapon.

Ahhh, a handy dandy youtube link:

For number 3, I'm in a game at the moment where we've already got 2 half-orcs who didn't dump charisma and actually have some of the best social skills in the group, it's actually really fun :)

Link is here if you want to take a look, another one wouldn't go astray.
