Aura of Menace (Su): A righteous aura surrounds you when you fight or get angry. Any hostile creature within a 20-foot radius of an archon must succeed on a Will save to resist its effects. The save DC is Charisma-based, and includes a +2 racial bonus. Those who fail take a -2 penalty on attacks, AC, and saves for 24 hours or until they successfully hit you. A creature that has resisted or broken the effect cannot be affected again by your aura for 24 hours.

Darkvision out to 60 feet and low-light vision.

* Tongues (Su): You can speak with any creature that has a language, as though using a tongues spell (caster level 14th). This ability is always active.

Magic Circle against Evil (Su): A magic circle against evil effect always surrounds you.

Immunity to electricity and petrification.

Teleport (Su): You can use greater teleport at will, as the spell (caster level 14th), except that you can transport only yourself and up to 50 pounds of objects.

+4 racial bonus on saves against poison.

Frightful Moan (Su) : A ghost can emit a frightful moan as a standard action. All living creatures within a 30-foot spread must succeed on a Will save or become panicked for 2d4 rounds. This is a sonic necromantic mind-affecting fear effect. A creature that successfully saves against the moan cannot be affected by the same ghost’s moan for 24 hours.
Telekinesis (Su) : A ghost can use telekinesis as a standard action (caster level 12th or equal to the ghost’s HD, whichever is higher). When a ghost uses this power, it must wait 1d4 rounds before using it again.


Mellir was a leader of a very succesfull orc tribe. His intelligence and ability to make armor and weapons for his tribe made them the fiercest in the area. His tribe fought wars against anyone who came near their land, and wars to gain more land. Quickly it became one of the largest tribes of Orcs in reported history.. that is what brought its downfall... Mellir doesn't know who it was who raided. He was away at the nearest human encampment learning more of armorsmithing. It couldn't have been these humans, they had made a pact for trade goods and safety... None the less Mellir went into a fit of rage when he found his entire clan slaughtered to an orc. He took it out on the encampment, running into the middle of it he wore his finest equipment and swore he would kill everyone who attacked his tribe! The folks, having known and befriended some of them understood what he was going through and showed him how that their small encampment could never do any harm to a tribe the size of his. Finally weeping and bowing to their wisdom he ran from the encampment, never to been seen near there again. Rumor runs that he still looks for those who killed his family, his tribe, his people!

hey can i get some feedback about this? does Keen work like that with the weapon, cause i mean come on, crits on anything higher than a 13? wow

edit: also think i should go gauntlets of Ogre strength or stick with +2 armor? or Con and more hp?

[Toptomcat]

It doubles the crit range, making it 15-20/x2, (six numbers) not 14-20/x2 (seven numbers) from 18-20/x2 (three numbers).

[Rojito]

ok fixed that thanks TTC

What do you want?

Look at it this way. Any change in a number is a 5% shift between whether someone can make a DC or not. That includes you hitting someone or someone hitting you. (This ratio doesn't apply for damage, which is an entirely different scale.)

Armor = Harder to hit. It's effectively 10% more difficult for any given person to hit you.

Ogre Strength = Deal more damage, improved chance to hit. You get an effective 5% shift in your ability to hit any given person, and a +1 for your damage output.

Amulet of Health = You can take more damage. +5 hit points, 5% shift on your Fort Saves.

It's all about what you want to do. Do you want to be a heavy hitter? Then go with Strength. Do you want to be defensive? AC might be your boat. Do you want to be able to soak up more damage? Amulet of Health.

[Rojito]

yeah thanks Udjat, i think i will stick with th armor, i already do enough dmg, and i have good hp

[Deekin]

How the Smeg did you afford all that stuff?

The Sword costs
8375 gp out of 9000 gp?
Armor
4350 gp out of 9000

I assumed it had something to do with his 'twist'. He did mention that they might be in the form of enhanced equipment, rather than abilities.

A soulknife wouldn't understand.

[Rojito]

whoops i did mess up on the sword, think i forgot to add in the required +1 at first, ok had to fiddle with some things, but my guy is up to date now, also remember that i can make my own weapons and armor

Mellir was a leader of a very succesfull orc tribe. His intelligence and ability to make armor and weapons for his tribe made them the fiercest in the area. His tribe fought wars against anyone who came near their land, and wars to gain more land. Quickly it became one of the largest tribes of Orcs in reported history.. that is what brought its downfall... Mellir doesn't know who it was who raided. He was away at the nearest human encampment learning more of armorsmithing. It couldn't have been these humans, they had made a pact for trade goods and safety... None the less Mellir went into a fit of rage when he found his entire clan slaughtered to an orc. He took it out on the encampment, running into the middle of it he wore his finest equipment and swore he would kill everyone who attacked his tribe! The folks, having known and befriended some of them understood what he was going through and showed him how that their small encampment could never do any harm to a tribe the size of his. Finally weeping and bowing to their wisdom he ran from the encampment, never to been seen near there again. Rumor runs that he still looks for those who killed his family, his tribe, his people!

What bothered you the most was the cauterized wounds left on the bodies. It was as if somebody had run them through with a sword just taken from the furnace. The bodies still smoked when you found them.

You didn't know this...but two days after you left, some humans from the encampment came to investigate the scene. To a one of them they wept.

You chased after him for (you don't know how many) months. It wasn't hard. His path of carnage seemed deliberate. Like he wanted you to follow him. You were amazed at how one home just off the road would be untouched, but here to your right no one survived.

When you caught up with him, you were surprised at how small he was. He was thin, gangly with pale skin and blonde hair. There were runes tattooed all over his body thought they were foreign to you. He wore no armor, he practically wore no clothing at all. His shirt was ripped to the point of being rags. His pants shredded just below the knees. There were no shoes. In two hands he held a long curved sword that looked too big for him to wield as well as he did. Black fire engulfed the blade.

"Who are you?" you asked.
"I am the plague," he answered, "Every tenth one."
It's all he said to you.

He looked such a small thing to kill. You will not think so the next time you meet.

The last time his blade penetrated your skin, it entered through your left pectoral, impaled your heart and effortlessly made it's way out of your back.

After you died, you were approached by an old silver-haired harvester bearing a scythe upon his shoulder. It wasn’t the grinning skull cloaked in black you had always imagined. The world had lost it’s color, the wind stopped blowing and your tactile senses failed you. You struggled to your feet as you had always imagined Death would take you, but he did not take you.

“YOUR THREAD IS YET BEING SPUN,” He said. “YOU ARE NOT RIPE FOR THE HARVEST.”

You did not answer.

“FATE HAS MORE TO UNFOLD WITH YOU. IF I LEAVE YOU, NERULL WILL SEEK TO ADD YOU TO HIS ARMIES OF UNDEAD, BUT YOU MAY COMPLETE YOUR TASK. IF I TAKE YOU NOW, YOUR CLAN WILL BE GRATEFUL TO RECIEVE YOU, BUT SHE WILL THEN SURELY DIE. I SHALL LEAVE THE CHOICE TO YOU THEN.”

You made your decision.

“I SHALL RETURN TO CLAIM YOU THEN,” said Death. You’ve been following the man who called himself ‘Plague’ ever since. Your latest lead came when a bard told news of a ship that sailed into Port Galadin across the sea with not a soul alive upon it. Their wounds smoked. He has crossed the sea.

So here’s the big idea. You’re a ghost, but you’re still attached to your own body. So you’re like a zombie, but you still have your own mind, and your body isn’t decaying. That is why you have the template ‘Corporal Ghost’ attached to you now.

You take damage normally since you still live in your own body, but you do not heal normally. You heal completely. At midnight each night you may erase all damage dealt to you by usual sources (stabbing, bludgeoning, burning, etc.) Even if you get killed, you just rise up again healed come 12:00. But don’t let any clerics heal you. Positive energy such as from cure light wounds spells will hurt you. Damage caused by positive energy is cumulative and does not heal on its own at all. You can only heal this damage by soaking up some negative energy sources. (That may be difficult, as most clerics would immediately destroy you or try to control you for their own gain.)

You also have the wound that did you in. That will NEVER heal. It’s 13 points of damage and you will have to hide it to keep your secret. (Just don’t take your shirt off) So when your hp hits 13, you’re KOed, from 4-12 is dieing, and 3 is dead.

You also have some new special abilities:

Frightful Moan (Su) : A ghost can emit a frightful moan as a standard action. All living creatures within a 30-foot spread must succeed on a Will save or become panicked for 2d4 rounds. This is a sonic necromantic mind-affecting fear effect. A creature that successfully saves against the moan cannot be affected by the same ghost’s moan for 24 hours.
Telekinesis (Su) : A ghost can use telekinesis as a standard action (caster level 12th or equal to the ghost’s HD, whichever is higher). When a ghost uses this power, it must wait 1d4 rounds before using it again.
Rejuvenation (Su)
In most cases, it’s difficult to destroy a ghost through simple combat: The “destroyed” spirit will often restore itself upon the next midnight. Even the most powerful spells are usually only temporary solutions. As a rule, the only way to get rid of a ghost for sure is to determine the reason for its existence and set right whatever prevents it from resting in peace. The exact means varies with each spirit and may require a good deal of research.
(But for you, positive energy damage in the amount of your full Hp-13 will destroy you for good.)m
