Title: Lottel's 4e (Zelda?) Fucksplosion
Post by: Lottel on February 15, 2010, 08:42:21 PM
Let's clean this up a bit:

Times to play-
M-All day
W-11-4
F-10-3
S-10-3
TIME IS CENTRAL
Let me know which time is best.
I would like a Saturday game, honestly, but if it calls for it I can switch to the other times

Game is 4e DnD.

I have two games in mind. If you join, let me know which you want.
I have a classic 4e game with a decent story already and raring to go.
OOOOOOOOOOOOR
I have a Zelda 4e game. I have the races already made and just need to throw together a quick story. I've got Deku, Zora, and Goron on top of the other races.

I am a MONDAY PLAYER, as that is pretty much the only daytime slot where I am nearly guaranteed to not be at work.  I want a Zelder game so I can draw/play some horrible zora slut.

I'm good 6am-4pm Central any day, except 7am-11am Sundays when I run my own game (http://brontoforum.us/index.php?topic=4586.0). Any of your times are good for me. I would like the opportunity to play a 4E game (I've only DMed 4E so far).
Title: Re: Lottel's 4e (Zelda?) Fucksplosion

Post by: JDigital on February 17, 2010, 06:16:47 PM
A few people contacted me on IRC to join my game, which is full, so they might be up for joining your game. Ask Parak, Joxam, and Malikial if you need players.
Title: Re: Lottel's 4e (Zelda?) Fucksplosion
Post by: Lottel on February 17, 2010, 07:14:53 PM
The more the merrier.
I can run more than one game if that is what is needed!

And whatever is convenient for you guy between the set times, Dogstar

Post by: Lottel on February 17, 2010, 10:03:33 PM
Alrighty! Here are the custom races I have for you. I tried to keep them as close to the other races in terms of writing and amount/type of abilities. I also made them reflect the games as well as fit in the 4e universe, so the flavor text might be a bit odd.

Race: Deku Scrub
Magical protectors of nature, quiet and nimble

Traits:
   Average Height: 2'2"-3'0"
   Average Weight:15-30 lbs

Ability Scores: +2 Wis, +2 Dex
Size: Small
Speed: 5
Vision: Normal

Languages: Common, One Bestial Language (Feline, Canine, Ursine, etc)
Skill Bonuses: +2 nature, +2 stealth
Light: You can cast Spirit Skip and Feather Fall on yourself as an ecounter power
Spit: You gain Spit racial power
Scrub Resistance: +5 saving throws against poison
Light Weight: When pushed/pulled/slid, you move an extra 2 squares
Druidic Calling: You gain "Twisting Vines" as a daily power. If you are a druid, you gain an additional ecounter power instead.

Spirit Skip - Ecounter - Move Action
 "You twist, spin, and skip ignoring the ground"
   Once per ecounter, you can move five squares over land or water while ignoring difficult    terrain. If you end in a square filled with water, you fall in as normal.

Spit -Ranged 5/10 - Special
 "You lean back and ready a more natural attack."
   When you create your Deku Scrub, choose Poison spit or Stun spit.
   Poison- At-will- Standard Action-
      "Purple blob of stick spit attaches itself to your target"
      1d6 poison damage and the target takes ongoing 1d4 poison damage.
   Stun -Ecounter- Standard Action-
      "You spit a large seed at just the right place"
      1d10 damage and the target is stunned until your next turn or until the target is hit by another attack.

Created long ago by a powerful druid, the Scrub races spread across the world to protect the natural at all cost. Agile and magical, they use what they can to aid them in the fight to guard their beloved homes.

Dekus tend to favor the druid, ranger, and rogue classes.


Physical Qualities

Deku Scrubs average 2'6" and are very light. Their ancestors were wooden puppets brought to life and they still share many traits with puppets. They are hollow and filled with pure magical power. Their skin is a magical form of wood and varies in color and texture as much as wood does. Their hair is often green or yellow, though hair the color of autumn leaves is also common. One third of their height is their large, round head which sports a large, tube-like snout. Eye colors are typically gold, red, white, and sometimes purple. Their clothing tends to be simple with patterns of leaves stitched in. They prefer colors that remind them of their forest home. Their voices are reedy and nasally.
Deku Scrubs reach physical maturity at roughly 15 years of age and age slowly and remain active well to 150.


Playing a Deku Scrub

Born of the trees, Deku Scrubs tend to stay close to forests if they can. They favor working outside and being alone in nature to loud streets and the company of others.
Few Deku Scrubs end up as adventurers. Most decide to stay and protect their home from unwanted intruders. Some, however, choose to leave. Whether this is to stop some possible threat to nature or because they got a rare bit of adventure in them and decided to try life in the world outside their small communities.
Deku Scrubs tend to forego worshipping gods and tend to worship nature itself. Those who do find gods often worship Melora, though Pelor, Sehanine, and Corellon are found as well depending on the personal tastes of the Scrub.
Deku Scrubs are often quiet and stay hidden, their clothing and natural camoflauge allowt them to easily hide in the trees. They tend to observe first, then come up with a plan, often using coordinated attacks at weak points. Deku Scrubs only harm sentient creatures if need be and try to persuade the other creatures to live peacefully. Scrubs only eat small vegetation and usually only drink clean water.


Deku Scrub Characteristics

Light, agile, shy, cautious, observant


Deku Scrub Names

Male- Plon, Deesk, Fleen, Neef, Tonn
Female- Tiplan, Flin, Tiff, Pas
Some Deku Scrubs are named twice. Both names are the same and are separated by hyphens.
Examples: Tliff-Tliff, Neesk-Neesk, Tinn-Tinn




Race:  Zora
Aquatic Warriors, Swift and Proud

Traits:
   Average Height: 5’8”-6’4”
   Average Weight:140-160 lbs

Ability Scores: +2 Int, +2 Dex
Size: Medium
Speed: 6
Vision: Normal, Underwater

Languages: Common, Aquan
Skill Bonuses: +2 History, +2 Acrobatics
Swim: Zora can swim at a Speed of 8
Fins: The fins on your arms are Natural Weapons (Deal 1d6 damage)
Gills: Zora can breath on land and in water.
Slippery: Zora gain a +2 bonus to Escape Rolls

A proud race of quiet warriors, the Zora value honor and practice over material matters.

Zora tend to favor the swordmage, fighter, and monk classes.


Physical Qualities


The Zora are pale to the point of almost being translucent. Most are white with spots and ornate patterns, much like fish.  They are tall and humanoid with a large long head which ends in something resembling a sharks fin. Their limbs are long and their torso small. Upon their arms and legs are fins that are razor sharp and are used as weapons. The whites of Zora’s eyes are black or blue with no pupil.  Zora clothing tends to be blue or a sea green and is very ornate. They often have many different outfits, including several pieces of special armor for ceremonies. Silver and similar colored metals are favored over gold. Same goes for diamonds over other jewelry.
Zora tend to live as long as humans, though they can live up to 150 if the water they live in is cool and clean.

Playing a Zora

Born of water, Zoras tend to stay close to bodies of water if they can although the can live comfortably on land. They have a subtle grace when they move on land, a carryover from their aquatic heritage. As children Zora attend lots of schooling in ways of history and war. They tend to view fighting as an art form and one that you follow strict rules. They follow a strong code of honor and respect for warriors. This often leads to conflict with other races as their way of life can often directly clash with the rules and laws of the others.
Though Zora often live in underwater caves, the caves are typically near the shoreline as the Zora tend to farm a lot of food to supplement their diet of seafood.  This is how many Zora come to meet other races. In fact, some Zora end up residing entirely on land, in little houses by the beaches and a few even live in towns and cities on land.
Zora often worship Bahumut, Ioun, Correlon, and Erathis as side deities, while they focus on Mellora.
Zora are often fishermen and farmers although they do offer their services as hired sailors to other races. Their affinity with water makes them perfect boaters as they have a special knowledge that lets them know how to spot oncoming storms and rough water earlier than most others.
In battle as well as life Zora follow strict rules of conduct, not fighting unless honor dictates the need and not fighting for personal glory. They are a cool race that thinks logically and clearly before they attack precisely and deadly.  


Zora Characteristics

Noble, fierce, serious, collected


Zora Names

Male- Zorendo, Remor, Yylor
Female- Zuko, Ruzu, Phii,




Race:  Goron
Calm Builders of the Mountains

Traits:
   Average Height: 5’0”-5’8”
   Average Weight 300-400 lbs

Ability Scores: +2 Str, +2 Con
Size: Medium
Speed: 5
Vision: Normal

Languages: Common, Dwarven
Skill Bonuses: +2 Dungeoneering, +2 Athletics
Roll: Gorons can charge at a speed of 7 and do not take Attacks of Opportunity while doing so
Rock Skin: Gain Toughness and Resist Fire +2
Goron Digestion: Gorons can eat rocks with no ill effect and have resist Poison +3
Brewer: Gain Alchemist feat

A calm race that relies on their tough skin wearing their opponents out. Often forgo fighting and curl into a ball.

Gorons tend to favor the Artificer, Fighter, and Warden classes.


(Uh-oh! Missing some Goron Info. Pretend I wrote something here)


Now remember you can choose either one of these three or any of the other races.
Still would prefer you didn't go the Evil route, seeing as you will be fighting evil.
Idea is a mix between OOT/MM and the sailing games. So if you came from another land or something that is fine. Gorons tend to live on Mountainy islands and only a few live on the mainland and Zoras live in tropical islands and rarely live on the main island. Dekus are everywhere. There are several races. The playable race is different than the monster race though, so keep that in mind.

I'm so rolling a Goron, whether or not I get to punch things.

A bard would be appropriate for someone, given that music is always big in Zelda.

Ho shit, the character builder supports custom races (click the little homebrew icon on top of the menu) and it has monks in it. That's crazy! I'm a Goron Monk. I punch things. One of you other guys can be the defender. No I'm not, I don't know shit about being a monk and I don't have the PHB3 to refer to. Flavor is one thing but having no rules at all just won't fly. I'll be a fighter because that will emphasize being hit a lot.

I once wrote a PDF with an NPC, a brave tribal leader called Barrack. This was in 2007, long before most people had heard of Obama.

Post by: Ridley on February 18, 2010, 07:00:40 PM
Hokay.  I used Martial Power 2 for a hell of a lot of this character, and that's not in the builder till probably March 2nd.  Fortunately for me I started playing this edition well before the builder existed and can still sheet up a character pretty quick if I need to.  God, that was a lot of writing.  I'm typing up a summary version of all the stuff, and including a pdf of my handwritten scrawlings for good measure.

Nidoora's a Gerudo girl who just didn't have a lot of talent at the more athletic pursuits generally practiced by her tribe.  She was good at using a slingshot, sure, and could handle hiding and sneaking around, but put her in a swordfight and she's in trouble. On top of that, she's fairly kind-hearted, and doesn't really like taking every last rupee from someone who might need it.  She is, though, pretty smart, so a lot of the other girls thought she should go train with the witches, but Nidoora wanted to show them she could do the bandit thing just as well as they could.  Besides, the witches are creepy and have great big heads.  Eventually, tired of being made fun of for her kind-heartedness and small nose other failings, she ran away, looking for a way to prove herself.

Daily:
Confounding Attack (Martial Power) +8 vs AC, 2d6+4 damage.  Effect: as a free action, target makes MBA vs one adjacent target of your choosing.  If you have not expended sneak attack this round and either you or the primary target have CA versus secondary target, can apply sneak attack to the damage.

               Your shout of wrath stabs into your foe’s mind. Each time your allies hit that foe, they draw strength
from its weakness.
               Daily ✦ Arcane, Healing, Implement, Psychic
               Standard Action Ranged 10
               Target: One creature
               Attack: Charisma vs. Will
               Hit: 2d6 + Charisma modifier psychic damage.
               Effect: Until the end of the encounter, whenever an ally hits the target, that ally regains hit points
equal to your Charisma modifier.


Rituals:


               Traveler’s Chant

               Your chant lifts your allies’ steps and helps take their minds off the drudgery of the journey.
               Level: 1 Component Cost: 10 gp,
               Category: Exploration plus a focus worth 5 gp
               Time: 10 minutes Market Price: 75 gp
               Duration: 8 hours Key Skill: Arcana (no check)
               Prerequisite: Bard
               For the ritual’s duration, you and up to eight allies who heard the whole performance of the ritual
can travel farther than normal. For the purpose of determining how far you and the allies can travel in an
hour or a day, treat the group’s speed as the slowest member’s speed + 2.
               Focus: A musical instrument you play as part of performing the ritual.


               Create Campsite

               A crackling fire, a hot meal, and a warm bedroll await you after a long day of adventuring.
               Level: 1 Component Cost: 15 gp
               Category: Exploration Market Price: 50 gp
               Time: 10 minutes Key Skill: Nature
               Duration: 8 hours
               You summon hundreds of diminutive nature spirits to assemble a campsite in a 5-square radius around
you. The spirits clear the area, set up tents, unroll bedrolls, gather water, and prepare a nourishing meal.
They also conceal the campsite, with your Nature check result serving as the DC for Perception checks to
notice the hidden camp. The spirits utilize your and your allies’ gear to make the campsite. If you and your
allies lack the appropriate gear, the spirits gather raw materials from the environment to make the campsite.
               
       At the end of the ritual’s duration, the spirits break down the campsite, pack up your gear, and
restore the site to its original state, removing evidence that you and your allies camped there.

Well shit! We haven't agreed on how to play this!
Gametable is a must.
We can chat on there, chat in IRC, or use skype/vent.
Whichever is fine.

I strongly prefer something with text.

I prefer talking. Like D&D was meant to be played.

I have mentioned previously that I find the game moves faster with talking, but I'm totally okay with going for a text-only game if that works better for more people.

Gametable is pretty win though.  Maptool's more powerful but I found it finickier to deal with for hosting and it was a lot more setup time to make a map with it.  Gametable's less pretty but can be mapped on the fly and it definitely does the trick.

Gametable for chat is not as stable as irc for chat, or vent for chat, though.

Edit: also what specific time and time zones are we dealing with here I don't know if that was ever definitively clarified

11am central time.
And this is how my old Online group went: 4 of us talked and one just listened and typed. This is because he had a girly voice (I believe he was, in fact, a lady.)

So we can do that easily. It's not that weird.

Story stars Zoot, the sassy Zora swordmage! Marni the yelly Zora bard! Nidoora the Gerudo Rogue with a heart of gold! Gnilley the REALLY FUCKING OLD wizard!

Fun facts:
Gnilley uses Frocto's face as a pog!
Small noses are big in this group!
Nidoora wants to be the best Gerudo ever but is too nice!
Could still end up being Zelda Rock Band: The Game!

Okay I know JD's already said he's not here this week.

I have just been informed that in order to meet everyone and make it to the Muse concert in Toronto, we're going to have to leave between 2:30-3:30 from here.  I mean I can probably play until then if we have a short session, but...I might be a bit on the distracted side and definitely can't do the kind of thing we did last week.

Well!  3 people can't make.

So no DnD!
We can do a make up session any day this week, if you guys are wanting.
Let me know!

I'd assume morning time. Same as Mondays?
Title: Re: Lottel's 4e (Zelda?) Fucksplosion
Post by: Malikial on March 11, 2010, 12:02:59 AM
I'll make an attempt at getting up, but I have a very hard time being up before 2-3PM due to my working overnights for 6 years.... The only reason I manage it on Monday is because James wakes me up. I generally have to go back to sleep for a bit after the game because I only get about 2-3 hours of sleep before hand. It's 1:51 AM as I'm writing this and I'm about to go pop some lunch in the oven so... yeah. I guess if James can blast me out of bed using some sort of violence and copious amounts of water thrown on me I'll try to be around game time but I can't promise much. I sleep pretty hard. I've fallen out of bunk beds into piles of edged objects and not woken up.

I will note that I'm generally not available at any time other than the time I originally planned for, my days are pretty well filled and I schedule them relatively far in advance. I agreed to play this game on Mondays at 11 AM thus I will endeavor to be there at that time but this is the only time I'm SURE I can be there. This week was a fluke because my Ma needed help and I'm sorry about that, but almost everyone else was busy too so it didn't matter much.

Now that you are out of the main town, you'll be able to get more items. And more treasure.  So expect items to start coming your way.

Alright, chums. This is what I want.

Make a list of a few magic items you want. Give me a few different options (And at a few different levels, if you could) so it's not just "I WANT THIS SWORD AND THIS SHIELD AND THIS AND THIS. NOTHING ELSE WILL MAKE ME HAPPY" But feel free to go "I want these shields eventually and these swords. This cape would be neat and so would this hat.  All in all, I'd like my character to be more like this."

NOTE: You may not GET these items, certainly not all of them. But I will try to get you them when I can/feel like it.  This way you get the items you want and I don't have to repeatedly dig through books to find stuff for you guys.  
And of course this is Zelda so you may instead get more Zelda-y items or the same items with Zelda-y flavor.
