I promise these two things are more related then you would think, so just follow me out with this one. Tonight our gaming group have decided to embark on quite possibly what is going to be the greatest shit show and most disruptive game of D&D ever...a drunk quest. We have a module we are being run through, 5th level characters, and pretty much straight Pathfinder. For this venture I have decided on playing an Elf Bladebound Magus that is a total "bro" with a diminutive fey. The visual of that picture can be harkened from the back recesses of your brain...I am an elf, fighting with a sword and I wear green; my fey friend is super tiny, rides on my shoulder and shouts at me the whole time. If you don't get that reference, then I hope no pity is shown on your soul...but for the sake of not losing my whole 10 readers, it's Link from Zelda. So here are the nitty gritty details of my character: STR: 14, DEX: 20, CON: 12, INT: 20, WIS:10 (it's ALWAYS my dump stat), CHA: 12; for feats I have Weapon Finesse, Power Attack, Furious Focus, and Combat Casting. Oh the best part though for my character? Bladebound gives a weapon (longsword) that is pretty much a +2 enhancement for FREE....I will repeat that just in case you didn't understand, I am getting an 8,000 gold piece item for free. Win me? DEFINITELY. Oh yeah and one of the most arguably best parts of the archetype?-the fact that I get to use one point from my arcane pool to increase that enchantment from a +2 (technically a +1 and then I added the agile property) to a +4....BOOM! And I mean no big deal, but I get to sling spells through my sword also, so I will be Shocking Grasp-ing bitches all day for an additional 5d6 with my 1d8+13 weapon damage. All I have to do is hit...which seems to be the hardest part.
So besides the stat aspects of my character, why am I so excited to play it? Oh dear readers, my fey friend I wrote of earlier, is going to be my bro...and I don't mean my brother-I mean my bro. We are going to fist bump, spend our money on liquor and cheap women, and do all that other awesome "bro" stuff. This is the first time I have ever played a dude and I am pretty stoked. Hopefully the drinking with the game will help get in character...I mean it can't hurt to be drunk at least! Since my character is a bro, I have gifted him with a bro-tastic name: Brodale, Son of Broseph of House Brorage, First of His Name, Mayor of Tittetowne. So yeah....I am very much excite and I will have to post more on how he fairs in battle!
