Yeah... most people veto the cancer mage. It makes me sad that I can't find a game that'll let me have a talking (or is it telepathic?) tumor. Oh well.

In any case, the aberration druid thing comes from lords of madness. It's a feat that lets you wild shape as an aberration. It requires that aberration blood thing.

The symbiont PrC is from magic of Eberron. Basically, you pick up a symbiont and hunt down those warped horrors. In my case, I might have a bit of a grudge against the things that made me hated and feared by the world. I might not even have been born with aberration blood.

As far as personality goes... I'd probably be kinda feared or mistrusted by peoples. I'd probably begrudge both humans and monsters (the latter more than the former)... but would be fiercely loyal to what friends I had (having so few friends and all). Tend to be paranoid and secretive, though.

As for party role: A messed-up healer.

For the spiker monk? That's just spiked skin and grappling. If we're hunting dragons or really big monsters like that I might get kinda shafted, though.

Well the easiest way to be mistrusted by people in this setting is to have fiendish heritage. After the hundreds of years of the Abyssal Wars no one really likes them too much.

Its ok. I'm going to be focusing on melee mostly with Dragonfire adept to enhance him. Two dragonfires in a party isn't as bad as two rogues with the same skills.
*coughs, dusts soot off suit, removes helmet* Glad I thought of that...

Perfect. Then I can go for battlefield control and sneakmonkey and we're set. And don't get all pissy at me, I went out and bought the book specifically for this campaign.

I was at Barnes and Noble today and saw it, so I figured no one had the book I might find a class in there that nobody is using. So I picked it up.

Yeah... I had thought of this. Fiends aren't usually my style, though... at least not in terms of stuff to play. And I'm sure your average human can't tell a fiendspawn from a deepspawn (or starspawn or whatever I am, depending on aberrations' origins) just by looking.

As fiendish options, though... I mean... what is there? Tiefling? LA and cha penalty for a darkness spell don't suit me very well. Half fiend way too much all around. And as little heritage feats go, aberrations strike me as just being cooler (also not being so... magic?)

Also, I might go with something else class-wise. Spirit shaman maybe. I dunno. I'll have to think on this stuff, overall.

There is the lesser tiefling as well as the fiendish template to work with as well. Or you could be a worshiper of one of the demon princes/devil lords, I'm sure that'd get some attention.

Oh the irony.

Oh well, the only thing better than a once-per-round breath weapon is another one, right?


And beejazz, might I suggest the Dragon Shaman form PHBII?

I'm not familiar with the lesser tiefling bit. And not into the whole demon worshipping cultist so much either.

They lose the resistances and are humanoids instead of outsiders and have no LA.

So we've got a pseudodragon dragonfire adept, a human beguiler, another dragon adept of unknown race, and 'something scaryish.'

The story on why we're traveling together should be mighty interesting methinks...

This might be a bad time to say this, but could we wait two weeks? I'm leaving for alaska on friday and won't be back for ten-12 days.

Although if you want to start without me, go ahead, I'll just hop in when I get back.

Well I was going to leave my race secret and surprise you guys with it the first time I changed by it would be unfair for me to see your sheets and you not to see mine. :)

Markas is a changeling. (would've worked better as a rogue *grumble* *grumble*).

I will post the sheet when I am finished with the background.
