General Discussion / Re: Summoner Character Build?
« on: April 09, 2018, 12:56:33 pm »
Thank you for the response. Do you know how well summoning might scale through levels? I wouldn't want to make a character that, while interesting, doesn't put enough forward to be truly useful to a party.

General Discussion / Summoner Character Build?
« on: April 09, 2018, 02:17:58 am »
Hello all,

Wasn't really sure where the best place to put this was, so general discussion seemed like a good choice. I had an idea for a potentially interesting character concept based around doing a lot of summoning as the primary method of damage dealing. I was wondering if this was really a possibility in the NWN engine, and if it is, if anyone had any ideas about the best way of making it happen mechanically. 

Thanks!

Development Journals and Discussion / *Belaruth sits at an inn in

*Belaruth sits at an inn in Hlint, relaxing by the fire as he prepares to write*

I am truly astounded at how much stronger I have become. I do not know if it is the will of Toran that my strength grow as it has, or simply my ceaseless efforts to do great service for my lord, but it is apparent now that I am a much more worthy servant than I was such a short time ago. I sit here in Hlint, having spent my day fighting off more goblins in the area. Insidious things, these. I found an altar in the cave they dwell in, and a very dark presence surrounds it. I do not know exactly what, but some foul thing is going on with these goblins, and I do not intend to cease culling them until it is erradicated. However, returning to my original point, I am fighting these goblins with only myself and Toran for aid, and performing flawlessly! What such a short time ago I could only do with a great deal of aid from Sibbicai, I can now do on my own. I am truly very excited by this progress. All the better to do Toran's work.

*Belaruth calmly opens his journal to begin his log, for once not exhausted at the time of his writings*

Finally I have managed to find a finer longsword for myself! I managed to have it commisioned through a friend of Evelyn, and after taking a while to perform the proper blessings and rituals, it is a finer weapon than any I have yet had the privelege of wielding. The craftsmanship is superb and the blade is much sharper than I could ever have hoped for my old sword to be. Surely, this will be a mighty tool for delivering the verdict of my lord Toran!

*Belaruth practically collapses on the small log bench in Center.  Tiredly, he pulls out his journal and prepares to write*

I have had my most trying pursuit yet on this day. I encountered Sibbicai once more, on the road to Port Hempstead. He informed me that he had business in Dregar, and I accompanied him upon it. I figured it would be a more grand task than what I was currently involved in, and I was not disappointed. We fought droves of forest giants in the woods outside of Prantz. I do hope Lord Toran saw me, as it is likely some of my finest moments were had in these battles. Fighting such menacing creatures, and in such numbers, made the service to my lord feel so much more grand. Truly Toran blesses my journies, as he has gifted me with good friends and proper challenges! I shant disappoint my lord in the face of these adversities. Rather, I must strive to rise above them and become a better vessel for Toran's light. And if ever I perish in the pursuit of this, let this journal be the record that states my purpose, and the assurance that I did not die without a fight!

*Belaruth shakes snow from his pack, having just disembarked a ship from Krashin on the Leringard docks. He enters the nearby inn and sits down to write*

Toran be praised, for this land is full of kind souls! I have met a druid by the name of Evelyn, and together we cleared a cave in Krashin of a kobold threat, as well as slaying some especially tough goblins. I do not believe I would have had the strength to carry out such a service to Lord Toran on my own, but with her assistance we brought judgement upon them with ease. The cold was a nice change of pace from the arid beaches of Windjammers and the docks of Port Hempstead. I do very much hope I cross paths with her again, for she is a friendly soul and a powerful ally. As always, I hope that my actions help the people in the area find peace, and that Lord Toran smiles upon my works.

*As Belaruth prepares himself for another day, he recites his prayers to Toran, deciding to write before he sets off*

As I set off once again in service of my lord, I reflect upon my purpose here as an agent of Toran's will. In my every action I must strive to fulfill the ideals of my lord, and bring his light to the darkness of this world. I only hope I can become a better vessel of Toran's grace in the future.

Development Journals and Discussion / *Belaruth once again sets
« on: October 27, 2017, 03:35:26 am »

*Belaruth once again sets down on a log bench in Center. He pulls his neat journal from his pack, flipping to the next open page*

Another long day, though a pleasant one. The first one spent without the company of Michael. For a long while, I assisted with the kobolds once again. They seem to sprout up faster than you can cut them down. Then cleared a sea cave in Windjammers of some Saguahin. As I set out to Hlint to deal with goblin attacks on the roads, I met an amiable wizard named Sibbicai. Truly a good man, this one. May Toran's light shine upon him as he travels. With his assistance, I was able to take the head of the Red Fang goblin's leader, and return an old family heirloom to a distraught bard in Hlint. I thank Toran for the opportunity to bring his light to Hlint, as the goblins had become a dire threat to many travellers. I hope I have done my Lord's work well, and that the citizens there can know peace from those wretched monsters for a while. I stopped by the Temple of Toran in Fort Llast on my return trip from Hlint. So many memories there. My happiest and saddest days I have spent in those temple walls. I could have searched for the scorch mark that was the old farmhouse, but it is undoubtedly long gone by now. 

My closing thought for the day, is that I must remember to make each action I do a work toward the betterment of this world. Lord Toran has cast his blessings upon me, and I shall not disappoint him.

*Belaruth settles on the small log bench in Center, relieved to be out of his armor and taking a rest. He opens a meticulously maintained journal bearing the symbol of Toran, and begins to write*By Toran's light it is good to rest. Michael and I have already brought a great deal of the judgement of Toran to Center and the surrounding areas. We assisted a sewer keeper in Port Hempstead to test our skills, purged some foul undead from a crypt below Center, set back the nefarious activities of some kobolds meddling with dark magics, and brought retribution upon a whole castle of undead and dark monstrosities, as well as an especially nasty monster in the surrounding forests. Truly we have brought many triumphs in Toran's name! I parted ways with my dear brother outside Hempstead, as we both had separate agendas we desired to fill. In the morning I believe I will attempt to deal with a goblin problem near Hlint, but for now I rest.    Toran Be Praised - Belaruth Dawnbreaker

Development Journals and Discussion / Aelus Voldar - Arcane Duelist
« on: October 24, 2017, 01:49:04 pm »
*Aelus sits by the fire, jotting his thoughts down in a small leather-bound journal*I have arrived at Center, finally. It has been a long journey, but I imagine the road ahead will be longer still. I will rest here, then proceed to Port Hempstead in search of work. I have begun practicing with the rapier, in the hopes that I can capture the fighting style I observed from that traveler on the road. I have begun to understand the basic forms of the weapon, from books and practice, and I believe my speed is improving. I shall see what tests of my skills I can find in Port Hempstead.*He closes his journal and retires to bed, preparing for whatever he may find in the morning*
