tl;dr
Spoke some more with Shark. He has decided to not do this. Going Aasimar and zealotish Paladin type.
[4:37 PM] sharkinajar: ... I totally forgot to put a class on it. I'll probably do ranger. Don't really think anything else fits as much.
[4:47 PM] sharkinajar: if it don't pass, I may try to do something a little different and play a villain.
[4:47 PM] sharkinajar: get some player conflict going
[5:17 PM] Professor Misclick: Frankly, I'd rather you did "something a little different and play a villain"
[5:18 PM] Professor Misclick: What did you have in mind?
[5:18 PM] sharkinajar: I could. be hard to do one without support, however.
[5:18 PM] sharkinajar: Don't know if there's support for being an orc
[5:18 PM] Professor Misclick: Well, can't be a full orc but there is the entire White Hoard thing.(edited)
[5:19 PM] Professor Misclick: Horde
[5:19 PM] sharkinajar: yeah. I would be down for pushing the horde.
[5:19 PM] sharkinajar: I mean...
[5:19 PM] Professor Misclick: And I am starting to run events around that again
[5:19 PM] sharkinajar: We cooouuuld do a pseudo-orc.
[5:19 PM] sharkinajar:
[5:19 PM] Professor Misclick: Come up with some interesting goals and we can see about the rest?
[5:19 PM] sharkinajar: it'd be probably pretty tough to be solo riding like that, though... ponders Doable.
[5:20 PM] sharkinajar: I was gonna make a toon for one of spiffy's villains
[5:20 PM] sharkinajar: but issue is
[5:20 PM] sharkinajar: Spiffy just isn't around ever
[5:20 PM] sharkinajar: XD
[5:20 PM] Professor Misclick: Only if you are open about it. You could do an traitor in the ranks type?
[5:20 PM] Professor Misclick: Err... phone and typing sucks.....
[5:21 PM] Professor Misclick: I think you will get VERY frustrated with an ECL 3 character in short order
[5:21 PM] Professor Misclick: I know I would.
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: XD
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: eh
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: I'd manage it
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: thing is i'd never die haha
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: but yeah, could just be slow-going.
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: Could do a traitor type in the ranks.
[5:21 PM] sharkinajar: an obyn fanboy, perhaps?
[5:21 PM] Professor Misclick: That would work well for sure
[5:22 PM] sharkinajar: however, I'm pretty ass at that kind of RP
[5:22 PM] sharkinajar: I'm more of a smash people in the face/very open villain kind of person
[5:22 PM] sharkinajar: I'm not much for political maneuvering/intrigue
[5:22 PM] Professor Misclick: That's a real hard sell right now with the lower numbers.
[5:22 PM] sharkinajar: aye
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: which is why playing a villain isn't much a good fit right now.
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: blegh
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: I just wish this plot was finished already XD
[5:23 PM] Professor Misclick: Working on it.
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: aye..
[5:23 PM] Professor Misclick: Then I have some ideas for new factions
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: Please. we need a faction reboot
[5:23 PM] Professor Misclick: Revamped existing factions depending on player actions etc.
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: Embassies closed
[5:23 PM] sharkinajar: reworking or completely replacing the current ones
[5:24 PM] Professor Misclick: But if you just wanted to be part of some of the fun and see where things go, you can make a character and join up/tag along with the others on this plot.
[5:24 PM] Professor Misclick: Gives you time to come up with what you want to do next or perhaps something will present itself along the way?
[5:25 PM] sharkinajar: That's why I was gonna join Cat for a duo!
[5:25 PM] sharkinajar: if I want to just tag along I could just continue with my dwarf
[5:26 PM] Professor Misclick: Up to you.
[5:26 PM] sharkinajar: plus we could go a bit antagonistic
[5:26 PM] sharkinajar: without going full on villain
[5:26 PM] sharkinajar: thanks to lycan/feralness
[5:27 PM] sharkinajar: and piss off some vaylans something fierce
[5:27 PM] sharkinajar: why I was thinking something like that would be fun to do- albeit a bit slow thanks to the ECL, but hey I'll manage.
[5:27 PM] Professor Misclick: See that's not what Cat is going for at all.
[5:27 PM] sharkinajar: she's an islyn fangirl
[5:28 PM] sharkinajar: but said that she'd be pretty uncaring about anything else
[5:28 PM] sharkinajar: My guy would essentially be her "watcher" of a sort
[5:28 PM] sharkinajar: and easily piss off some others.
[5:28 PM] sharkinajar: Especially with fiendish heritage on top of it.
[5:28 PM] Professor Misclick: Ok. Have at it.
[5:28 PM] Professor Misclick: Not here to talk you in or out of anything
[5:28 PM] Professor Misclick: We'll wait for the rest of the team votes.
[5:28 PM] sharkinajar: oh! thought ya kinda were haha
[5:29 PM] sharkinajar: no worries.
[5:29 PM] sharkinajar: I mean, if there was some other opportunity, I'll take it
[5:29 PM] sharkinajar: But right now it's just super hard to shake things up / stir things up.
[5:29 PM] sharkinajar: shakes fist at white horde
[5:30 PM] sharkinajar: OR
[5:30 PM] sharkinajar: I could do a paladin
[5:30 PM] sharkinajar: That'd piss so many people off.
[5:30 PM] Professor Misclick: There is an invasion underway. A civil war inside a noble house. A fragile council system
[5:31 PM] Professor Misclick: All that you need to do is to come up with a something to use in that framework to shake things up
[5:31 PM] sharkinajar: Yeah, but the white horde is awful in that it's power level is absurd compared to everything else
[5:31 PM] Professor Misclick: Says who?
[5:31 PM] sharkinajar: so it makes any other threats negligible
[5:31 PM] sharkinajar: Hundreds to thousands of orcs/goblins/kobolds
[5:31 PM] Professor Misclick: Oh, that
[5:31 PM] sharkinajar: vs 8 level 6-10 pcs.
[5:31 PM] sharkinajar: Yeah
[5:31 PM] sharkinajar: XD
[5:31 PM] Professor Misclick: Hold on though
[5:32 PM] Professor Misclick: There are hundreds to thousands of mercenaries out there fighting the Horde as well
[5:33 PM] Professor Misclick: If you don't like the plot and don't want to play that's fine. But there is nothing wrong with this plot and regardless of any plot, there is always a way to make excuses for why something sucks.
