Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
Well, guess I start. Halfling rogue. Former slave, will probably be taking advanage of the situation to free other slaves if he gets the chance. Very good at the social and sneaky skills, not so much good in a straight up fight, although there's always shanking people while they're distracted. Might be working with someone more established/upper-class-y, posing as their slave to let him move around without as much attention on him than if he was walking around obviously free.

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
I'm working on a vigilante, so I'll be filling one of three yet-to-be-determined roles: stabbity death, sorta-arcane-support (sorc/wiz list, but really limited spells/day), or sorta-divine-support (inquisitor list).

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
Hey,
I'm looking at two possibilities for my character.
Monk - on a pilgrimage and discovering the corruption and oppression of Kintargo and determines that he will give aid to those that are oppressed because it is right.
Rogue - A former socialite and scoundrel this character would have been caught in the wrong bed, imprisoned and tortured. Either released or escaped with a thirst for revenge on those in power that had been thought of as friends but did nothing to aid them.
Monk would be a Lawful Good character, probably a strong Sentinel for the party. The Rogue would likely be Chaotic either Neutral or Evil depending, and either a good Recruiter or Spymaster.

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
I'm pretty set on making an Elan Dread. I'm still hammering out details/going through the player guide, but the basics are that she belonged to a coven (cult, sect, whatever) of Calistra that was disbanded/killed when her worship was outlawed. Her schtick is that she's attempting to become a sort of folklore figure so that her name itself carries a sort of anxiety and fear. A mystery wrapped in an enigma that leaves you wondering why you just wet yourself. But I promise she's kind of a good guy.
She's likely going to be wielding a whip and will be focused on really messing with the mind using fear and nightmares. She'll be good at intimidating others and sewing deceit and confusion (hopefully among enemy ranks).

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
As for alignment/officerness of my halfling social rogue, I'm thinking CG/CN and Demagogue or Spymaster would make the most sense.

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
As a vigilante I get two alignments, so i'll probably go True Neutral for Social Identity and Chaotic Neutral for Vigilante Identity.

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
Alright you got me. I'm thinking Cavalier, though dunno about archetype. Probably going with one of Drew's custom Orders, likely Order of the Rose.
I'm thinking Strategist as primary character concept (though I may need some OOC help with that). Current thoughts are to have an Axebeak(chocobo) mount, so Partisan could also make some sense. I was planning some kind of merchant background, and competence managing our trade/supply routes.

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
Updated the approximate lineup.
Recall also that you do not necessarily need one of each officer. I wanted six players because I thought that would be neat, but, this is your organization, and if you decided to, say, not take a Partisan at all and have multiple Spymasters for a Secrecy-heavy organization, that would be your prerogative.
Also, while I think that Tasia would make a good Demagogue, I'm not sure her Dread would. Unless you're going more for a Terrorist Cell than a Rebellion. Again, your prerogative.

Re: +5 Thread of Character Discussions
A valid criticism. Perhaps I should have said, "an organization with a larger focus on militancy and fear tactics".
