Hum.  Maybe?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I have a character idea I want to see done, one that's a little heavy on the optimization (but in the completely wrong direction) so it feels like it'd be overpowered with a low optimization group.  In all honesty, it's just a Blaster Sorcerer done silly.  25d8 Sound Lance + half to 18 other targets.  Enters into its realm at 16.  Only average Sorcerer strength until then, but hey, it's still amusing.

Edit: Derp, I totally miscalculated the damage.  It isn't a 25d8 Sound Lance.  It's a 25d8 + 12d8 Sound Lance + half of that to 18 other targets.  That's a little more silly.

Edit 2: Not quite true.  I thought about it again, and it ends up as 15d8 + 21d8, so 36d8 rather than 37d8.

And then every enemy in the campaign bought items generating Silence fields, because holy fuck.

Posting to express interest. I'll start dreaming up a character now. With that much money to start with, I'm thinking of playing a Dread Pirate: http://dndtools.eu/classes/dread-pirate/

Now I just have to figure out what sort of build would be best to get to that prestige class...

As this seems to be a nautical campaign, I'm definitely going to be using Stormwrack. I'm not sure what all I'll be making...possibly a darfellan, those guys are neat.

Man, that book is awesome.
Not a fan of the races, other than the Hadozee, because lol flying monkeys.

Found it hard enough to make a level 3 character, never mind another three levels.

I find this strange, but then again, I would rummage through 5 different supplement books at once and write up characters to level 20 when I got bored.

What are the "WotC" books again? I'm bad with anagrams.
I may be able to make a character without even looking at the books if I can remember them...

Wizards of the Coast.

Swashbuckler/Bard with Dragonfire Inspiration.  Doubledipping Inspire Courage (Use Dragonfire Inspiration with Bardic Music, then activate the Dread Pirate ability to get your Inspire Courage bonii anyway.)  Swashbuckler is a great nautical class (and a great flavour class as well), and has a sweet ability at 3rd level (+Int bonus to damage).

Oh...


That makes sense.

So could I use:
Eborron
The second Player's handbook
The Book of 9 Swords (And possibly Weapons of Destiny)
And maybe Complete Warrior/Mage, if I'm confusing which feats are coming from which books.

I won't even ask for Book of Exalted Feats, because forget that garbage.


Also, though I wouldn't do it, Factotum is best class evar.

That's nothing! I'm making a magic missile stormer. When I get high enough level, I can launch 56d4+56 of unmissable, irresistible damage! (+112 if we go to 20th level and I manage to pick up an Argent Savant level!)

Edit: Speaking of which, here's my sheet for Tarzu

Edit Edit: I'm having trouble coming up with things to burn my last 1000 gold on, any ideas?

Have I missed something, or does a Shield spell basically negate your class feature entirely?

[tryrar]

Force Missile Mage yo. 3rd level ability blasts right through most protectiona from magic missile

[mastahcheese]

So there was about 4 different ideas I had, but I think if I do this, I'd be a Fighter.
Specifically, the bullet-sponge tank since it seems that mages will be the dominant damage dealers.

Notably, his class and build borrows heavily from a source that D&D aficionados consider dubious at best.

I'm not one of those aficionados, but the most overpowered stuff I've seen or theorized has been from Dragon Magazine.

Oh right, I missed that bit of it.

What, you don't think unseelie fey is a fair and balanced template?

Not familiar with that template.  Am quite partial to the Spellwarped Mineral Warrior Xvart though.

Oh, time to make another char...!

Question for GM. If I make a eagle totem barbarian, can I consider spot a class skill? It'd sort of make sense...

http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/UA:Eagle_Totem_Class_Features <--

Also, my char. Actually mostly done. Yet another char from an aborted campaign, re-purposed for use.

Edit: Also, any lore about the colder, northern climates would be helpful. Thrush is obviously from someplace cold.

Yeah, ditched the scout idea. I'm currently torn between a wizard/artificer/something similar based around crafting, or a captain. Is leadership allowed, being as it is a pre-requisite for LEGENDARY CAPTAIN!
