Quote from: Ninja D!I was thinking of a hat more like this:
and keeping the clothes darker (scrap the grey vest) otherwise that looks pretty close. My guy might look a bit less fancy and a bit more rough with age, too.

I have one thing to say: By All Means Possible

Oh and while i'm at it. I'm wondering if anyone will play any of my races. I want to test those out.

Excellent

Now for motivation (I'm bored at the moment)

Why hasn't there ever been a CBG motivational poster thread?

Since it's Play by Post, I might be interested.  I'm thinking the old noir detective type with the trench-coat and fedora.  Possibly with a bit of inspiration from Rorschach in Watchmen.

Maybe an Urban Ranger?  I'd either be human or catfolk.

Urban ranger sounds good.

I had figured that we were only using your races, is that not the case?

For the bard idea I was thinking a female catfolk exotic dancer, singer and escort. There's a bard variant in the Advanced Player's Guide that interests me called "Street Performer". While she wouldn't literally be a street performer,  the character's techniques seem to be reflected well in these abilities and would play together well with roguish parties. Here's the SRD link: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/bard#TOC-Street-Performer

For Point buy are we doing 32 points from Pathfinder's standard where ability scores start at 10, or something else? Starting with 10s in all stats as suggested by the Pathfinder allocation rules, my ability scores are looking something like this:

Str 7       Int 16
Dex 18   Wis 11
Con 6    Cha 20

I'm going with the idea that she's thin, most likely anorexic, keeping her figure for dancing, but agile, flexible and charismatic: she's confident and sexy. She's never made it very far outside of her low economic bracket, having been forced into employment after her debt-owing boyfriend ditched the city. Though she at once had dreams of going to university and getting a proper education, she exercises her intellect during her escort jobs, listening to politics and other sorts of talk from her escort clients. As such she'll probably have knowledge (local) ranks, but possibly not much more.
The thing with this character is she's not yet the kind to jump into battle, but she has been around violence on numerous occasions. She isn't by any means a pacifist, but other than carrying concealed weapons for protection, she doesn't have much reason to carry a weapon now. I'm trying to build her to be extremely combat effective but not by actually getting her hands dirty. So I'm thinking combat maneuvers like STEAL are good choices.

I'll start thinking of other characters as well. I actually didn't think anyone else would want to play the bard. How would a Paladin fit into this setting? Or a cleric?
I'll look at artificers and rogues and such.
"One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!"

Could somebody please play as a poppy atleast? Maybe a dynamian kobold?... I don't care if you play a human but, please no more catfolks...

I haven't read the last posts ind etails, but it seems like you really want to playtest your things. A good thing to do would maybe be give premade characters (by you), if it works well after your short adventure(s), launch another game where we have freedom over the creation.

Btw, cats are enticing, compared to fatties.

:P

Seraph

If you really want your races playtested, I might go with one one of them.  Of the two, I'm a little more interested in your Dynamian Kobolds, but the description of a poppy Dick Tracy in the Dynama thread was certainly amusing . . .

Sorry i didn't want to seem like a complete dictator... But I guess maybe i should hand out characters. Is it cool with you guys? Just through the playtest. Then I'll set you guys free for the bigger one. unless you guy's happen to really like your characters then cool.

Seraph

If it seems better to you to do so, then fine, but I was actually enjoying sketching a kobold detective.

That does sound pretty good. Eh, you guy's make your characters then show me.

Seraph

Here he is:



He is heavily modeled off of this image.

I'll get some stats up soon.

Ninja D!

If you're going to have pregenerated characters for a play by post game, they'd better be cool or people could lose interest really quickly. I could certainly back off the cat person.

LoA

I just want a diverse group thats all.

@Sephardine: There is no word in human understanding that can possibly describe the positivity in that kobold.

Just a side note, poppies don't necessarily have to be fat, there just big in stature, and infact the majority tend to be muscular.

@RoaroftheCito sorry, it took me a while to get to your character concept
