Hello everyone. I wanted to throw my name down in case anyone is looking for an additional player for 3.5e. I'm currently looking for more RP oriented groups. By that, I mean that I am looking for games in which everyone understands what it means to RP their character and where a DM actually acts out what his NPCs say rather than just summarizes it so that we can hastily move onto the next combat encounter. Moreover, I would prefer a more experienced DM who is willing to put effort into his campaign. I don't expect 5 star maps for everything, but it would be nice to play in a game with someone who puts at least a similar level of effort in their own campaigns as I do. I have a character I'm particularly interested in running, though this is by no means the only thing I will consider playing. If it doesn't fit your world but you think you are the sort of campaign I would enjoy playing in and you need another player, hit me up anyway and I'll come up with something equally unique and flavorful. Name : Volkard Heinz Alignment : Lawful Evil - Cruel and twisted, Volkard loves the thrill of battle and the shedding of blood. He lives for the look of fear on the faces of his enemies whom he is about to slay. Yet, despite his maniacal blood lust, he is very loyal to his superiors and will not stray even a little from their commands. He cares not for their goals or motives, he merely serves out of respect and the combat opportunities that such duties present him. Classes : 1 Wizard/3 Shadowcaster/10 Noctumancer/6 Mystic Theurge - Using the Shadowcaster from Tome of Magic as the base, the character will have many powers of the night. When he casts his spells, his shadow moves of its own accord. Ever vigilant and lurking within the darkness lies his shadowy templated familiar, a dreadful looking canine. Focusing on combat spells, this character will dive right into the heart of battle, able to cast in melee due to his stretching shadow occupying other squares. With life stealing and level lowering metamagic, he will heal himself and steal the very souls of his foes. Race : Necropolitan Human - Having undergone a dark ritual, the character is undead. To add an even more interesting twist, I'll have taken a trait that extends my darkvision to 120 feet at the cost of letting me only see through my darkvision. Special : The character is a bit insane and to reflect this, part of the premise is that he loves combat so much, he gains enjoyment from all aspects, even his own limbs being severed. The pain drives him forward. Thus I use the troll blooded feat refluffed that grants him regeneration 1. The look of horror on his foes when they slice off half his body only for him to laugh and reattach it will be wonderful to the theme. I'll also be running a wizard variant that lets me get a free extend or maximize on my spells when I take enough damage in one attack from an enemy. All of the material is legitimate 3.5e material. I do use dragon magazine content however. It will make for some fun RP and it's a relatively balanced build all things considered (even a nerf to going straight wizard, but I like the flavor and it's unusual to see casters in melee). And of course a picture fitting the characters look.
