Badeaux Shortshanks "Gator Bone" (free slot)

[Head Moderator]

Name: Badeaux "Gator Bone" Shortshanks

Color/Font: Green/TNR

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Age: 28
Hair: Long, curly brown
Eyes: Bright Emerald
Height: 2'10"
Race: Bayou Halfling

Languages: Common, Maddish, Halfling, Fungin, Arboreal, Grippli

Deity: Marais

Description: Just under three feet tall, Badeaux, who goes by 'Gator Bone' is a slim halfling specimen. Life in the humid bayous of Madder is harsh, and the bayou halflings have adapted very well to that life. Tattoos cover her body, and much of the time she wears clothing that allows most of her upper body tattoos to be seen. Tight brown leather trousers and thick boots are a mainstay. Her hair is long, mostly braided, and kept sleek and silky with sweet smelling oils. Eyebrows, ears, and nose are all pierced. Swamp tataus and piercings are something the halflings are known for, and her uncle is one of the finest swamp tatau artists known to the region.

Background: One could have a fine and full life living in the swamps, but when Gator Bone got a taste of adventuring during the Bog of the Fungus Demon foray she accompanied the Obsidian Heart on, she got the bug. Once her ancestor Risloneaux (who was found turned into a lich) was returned to her family, she headed right on back to the Heart to sign up as a bonafide adventurer herself! Soon after, she was reunited with a friend from home, Fremont, which only made her choice that much sweeter to have a dear friend at her side!

Primary Profession: Shaman
Bonus: "Shaman's Staff" A shaman's magic and power lies in his staff. It is his staff through which he channels the rapturous and often dangerous divine energies required for his spells.

2. Divine Gestures Your spells fail when you are wearing anything but light armor.

(racial) Athletics | +5 Athletics
(racial) Alert | +5 Spot/Listen
(racial) Small and Fast | +1 DDC
(teamwork) Darting Retrieval
^{As your ally disarms a foe, you knock the disarmed item out of the way. If your ally disarms a foe (or otherwise removes an item from them), if the item lands within melee range you can move the disarmed item further away as a free action, causing the target to be unable to retrieve the item in one round; needing two instead. If you have at least one hand free and could carry the disarmed item, you can instead pick it up. Your ally with this Teamwork skill must also have Disarm Skill.}
(flavor c) Incredible Insight | +5 Insight
(flavor c) Investigator | +5 on Gather Info, Insight and Search
(flavor c) I Remember This One!
^{You have a love of drink and a keen alchemical sense. They use these skills to remember potions and tonics once tasted or smelled. You can automatically identify any potion, tonic or poison you have tasted or smelled at least once before by sipping or sniffing it.}
(crystal) Dex Fighter
(crystal) Acrobatics | +5 Acrobatics
(crystal) Alchemy
(crystal) Darksight
(crystal) Iron Will | +1 Willpower  Checks
(flavor t) Nimble Feet
^{You can run across treacherous surfaces with ease. Once per adventure you can use this skill to cross a treacherous surface without taking an Acrobatics check.}
(shaman) Magical Affinity
(shaman) Animal Spirit Guide | +4 Alligators
^{They gain +4 on Handle Animal checks in regards to animals of their spirit guide type. Although they can not speak with the animals, they share a deep understanding. Creatures of his animal spirit guide's species are literally able to guide him, and they can 'converse' wordlessly, allowing the creature to give advice.}
(topaz) Push to the Limit | +5 Endurance Checks
(topaz) Rezz the Dead
(topaz) Create Doll | DC21
^{A shaman may create a featureless doll, save for the basic anatomy of a body, which takes up one round of combat. The doll is the vessel for the shaman's Voodoo Curse. The doll will work only on the person that the shaman has chosen during the creation of the doll. The target is allowed a Willpower Save against the creation of the doll. The save is 10 + shaman's INT. A doll lasts for one full combat.}
(flavor a) Swamp Child | +2 Spot, Search, Listen

You gain a +2 to Spot, Search and Listen in swamps, you will never starve in the swamps and marshes and you have no issue moving across the terrain.}
(amber) Gris Gris | +5 DEF
(amber) Poison/Venom Immunity
(amber) Voodoo Curse
^{A shaman may establish a powerful spiritual connection with any being it can comprehend, but this is still limited by the shaman's physical form. As long as the shaman has at least one Voodoo Doll and is able to perceive his target, he may cast a Voodoo Curse upon his target, linking the creature to the inanimate doll which resides in the shaman's hands. He may now deliver spells and attacks against the doll to which the effects will be immediately delivered to the chosen target. No actual damage is dealt to the doll itself. The doll may not be used by any other than the shaman.}
(support) Healing Affinity
(support) Spirit Walker | 1/2 dmg from one melee or ranged attack 1/combat
^{A shaman's form becomes a dual existence, both the physical and spiritual link through space and time from the other-world to the material plane. However, a shaman may use his powerful magics to retract this link and cause a shift in his physical form as he is thrown into the realm of the bad spirits. This allows the shaman to become partially insubstantial, taking half damage from one melee or ranged attack, once per combat.}
(flavor s) Approximate Understanding | 1 Knowledge Check at +10
^{You lack formal training or knowledge about a subject but you understand it enough to get by. You cannot have any other Knowledge skills, and you cannot use any loot or items that boost knowledge with this skill. This allows you to roll a Knowledge check on any one topic, with a +10 bonus. You may use this skill once per adventure.}
(sapphire) Pins and Needles | +6 DMG
^{A shaman carries around a set of small, handmade pins and needles of bone, wood or metal which he himself has granted magical powers. If the shaman sets up a successful Voodoo Curse with a target then he may use his turn of combat to stick a single pin into his target’s Voodoo Doll, dealing +2 damage each round against the target creature, which bypasses all defenses. At Emerald, Ruby, and Obsidian Rank you gain the ability to stick another pin into the doll, gaining at Obsidian rank a total of +8 DMG you may make upon a person with this attack, each round until they are dead or you pull the pin out. If you have made multiple dolls, you may pin any one of those targets in the round when you gain multiple pins. No Strike or roll of any dice is needed to stick a pin in, but it takes your turn to stick a pin. Once a pin is stuck, you may do other actions on your next turn and succeeding turns.}
(sapphire) Rapid Voodoo
^{You are so skilled at creating voodoo dolls that you can create one without taking up a full round of combat, enabling you to craft a voodoo doll and use it (or make another action) during the same round.}
(sapphire) Tribal Dance | 1 Dance per Combat
^{The shaman learns tribal dances that augment his magic. Performing the appropriate tribal dance immediately before casting certain spells imbues the spell cast with one of several effects. You may only use one tribal dance per combat. You learn new tribal dances as you increase in gemstone rank.
(Topaz) Bone Dance: The shaman can perform the bone dance, a menacing, frightening series of juts and screeches, accompanied by the violent shaking of bones, a skull on a stick, or the carcass of a freshly killed animal. This dance causes any necromancy type spells DC to be increased by +2.
(Amber) Fire Dance: The shaman can perform the fire dance, a vigorous gallop and chant either around an open fire or while holding an open flame (such as a torch). This dance augments any fire or light based spells DC to be increased by +2.
(Sapphire) Medicine Dance: The shaman can perform the medicine dance, a rhythmic, circular shuffle and soft, sorrowful chant. This dance allows a healing or cure spell to be used in combat, and it does not count against your spell use per day/adventure/combat.
(Emerald) Rain Dance: The shaman can perform the rain dance, a pleading, murmured trot, palms and face raised to the sky. This dance causes any electricity, air or water spells to have a +2 to their DC.
(Ruby) War Dance: The shaman can perform the war dance, a howling, spinning, and hooting display of intimidation, prowess, and weaponry, often performed around an open fire or before a group of warriors. This allows the shaman to cast any spell that enhances a weapon or an ally, and it does not count against your spell use per day/adventure/combat.}
(flavor e) Mumbo Jumbo
(emerald) Detect Spirits
^{A shaman knows when there are incorporeal creatures, astral creatures, ethereal creatures or fey within 60 feet of him. A shaman also knows roughly how many hit points such a creature holds (seek DM's aid).}
(emerald) Mojo Bond
^{You may link any creature with which you've established a Voodoo Curse upon, with a second enemy. Once per combat, anything that is done to the target of the Voodoo Curse also happens to the chosen second enemy that you've linked to your target. If your target gets a save, and is successful, then the second enemy is saved as well but if your target fails his save, if one is required, the linked enemy is considered to have failed as well.}
(emerald) Unwelcome Gift
^{Draw on the bad mojo of one of your allies! Remove a condition from an ally and place that condition on your chosen enemy target. A DC15 Willpower save is given to the chosen enemy, if they fail they gain the condition and your ally is relieved of the condition. This can be used for various conditions such as Sickened, Fearful, Shaken, Nauseated, etc. Anything besides the normal conditions must be approved by the DM.}
(healer) Healing Affinity | 26
(healer) Healing Run | Heal up to 3 and make a normal attack
^{When your allies need healing, you are able to help them and then get back into position. You may heal up to three allies, and then make a normal attack for your turn.}
(flavor r) Whispers
^{The spirits whisper into the shaman's ear a translation of any language the shaman is currently listening to or reading. At Topaz Rank this includes all natural and country languages, at Sapphire it includes Supernatural languages, at Ruby it includes Archaic languages and at Obsidian you may choose one Private language that you may have the translation whispered to you. This can be used only once per day, for up to 30 minutes.}
(ruby) Black Magic Pact
^{Once a week, when an enemy of equal or lower dice that is under the shaman's Voodoo Curse is within 10 points of death, the shaman can attempt to swap the soul of a fallen ally for that of the expendable foe, restoring their ally's essence to the material plane in a resurrection. The chosen victim is allowed a Willpower Save of DC10 + Shaman's Intelligence Bonus. If they fail their save, the fallen ally will be revived from the dead as well as healed of any damage equal to the amount of hit points of the sacrificed victim, though it will never go over however many hit points the ally normally is given. For instance, if a creature with 22 hit points is sacrificed, the ally is resurrected and healed of 22 points of damage. If the pact fails, the victim gets an immediate full attack upon the shaman.}
(ruby) Evil Eye | 1/adventure, force enemy to reroll save
^{Once per adventure, when an enemy makes a successful save, you may force them to re-roll their save. This can be used at any time, even if it is another ally that is seeking the save from the enemy.}
(ruby) Voodoo Torment
^{A target who is the subject of a Voodoo Curse becomes unable to use any defensive maneuvers or skills for one round of combat, as the sensation that their very skin is crawling manifests itself as a physical result of his soul being tortured slowly be malicious spirits.}

Primary Weapon: Fizzwinken's Deflecting Penetration Consecrated Skiver | 2d6 or 1d6/1d6
+3 to Strike Roll to Allies
+5 Magic/Mundane Def
This gator bone spear 2d6 (or 1d6/1d6) does not appear as if much changed save for the shape of the staff is now a spear with a blade at one end. Bone beads festoon the length of this gnarled gator bone staff. They hang in clumps or wrap around it like a snake, rattling and hissing at every move. Some creators dye the bone beads bright yellow, red or blue or add tiny rodent skulls or glass beads. The beads act as a channel, drawing spiritual essences toward the staff. These are not ghosts, but echoes of the ancestors of nearby living beings. When the wielder shakes it menacingly, the bone beads slide together and create a loud rattling that fills the area. All allies in the 30 foot burst area who can hear the staff's rattling perceive the whispers of long-dead ancestors advising them, offering guidance and encouragement. They gain a bonus of +3 to their next Strike Roll. This staff can also be used for defense, and grants a +5 magic or mundane defense while it is being used.

Hostile Juxtaposition: (Conjuration) You create a dimensional link to the target creature.

The target creature then takes the brunt (or full force) of the attack.

Deflection: (Abjuration [force]) You surround yourself in a whirling barrier of force that sends an attack hurling back toward its source. This applies to any melee or ranged attack directed against you so long as it uses a strike roll to determine whether or not it hits you.

Spirit of Consuming Terror: This can be targeted against one enemy, or AoE. It creates an overwhelming feeling of fear in the target/s causing them to be unsure about their movements, whether they should even be fighting the mystic and her team. This decreases their strike. (Lessen Strike)

Spirit of the War Chief: This is a strike buff for the mystic's team, and fills them with courage and focus, allowing them to better strike against the enemies.

*Holds
A hold spell causes your target to lose a turn of combat in some fashion. Depending on your hold description, targets may be immune. I.E. If your hold causes a creature to fall asleep, and your target is Immune to Sleep, it will fail.

Crystal and Topaz: 1 round
Amber and Sapphire: 2 rounds
Emerald and Ruby: 3 rounds
Obsidian: 4 rounds

Ad Misericordiam: You look so pitiful, whether you are wounded or not, that a creature that is about to attack you simply stops and cannot complete the task.

Momento Vixisti: You make a single melee attack. Your strike must hit a being that was formerly alive (whether now undead, deathless, a construct, etc.) If the being fails their save, the details of its past life come rushing back to it. It becomes briefly overwhelmed by the emotion and becomes aware of the mockery of what it once was. The target is stunned (this is an exception to the normal rules that might make such a creature immune to stunning).

*AoE Holds
A AoE Hold spell targets a group of enemies causing them to lose a turn of combat in some fashion. Depending on your hold description, some targets may be immune. See above for an example.
Save: Yes, Targets get a save EVERY ROUND they are held to break free.

Amber and Sapphire: 1 round [3 NPCs]
Emerald and Ruby: 1 rounds [4 NPCs]
Obsidian: 2 rounds [5 NPCs]

Cloak of Dreams: (Enchantment/Mind Effect) You are surrounded by a soporific aroma that causes targeted living creatures within range to fall asleep if they fail their save. Sleeping creatures are helpless, but are awakened if they are attacked.

Spirit of the Raging Earth: You call upon the spirit of the earth itself, which rumbles and knocks your enemies prone.

*Combat Effects
Combat effects are spells cast in combat that affect your enemies or allies in some way, or your own equipment. If you are creating an effect that needs a range, use the chart below and work with your DM.
Save: Depends
Duration: A Combat Effect spell lasts for one combat unless it states otherwise.

Ranges:
Crystal and Topaz: Range 50ft
Amber: Range 100ft
Sapphire: Range 150ft
Emerald and Ruby: Range 200ft
Obsidian: Range 250ft

Illuminated Weapon: (Evocation [good]) You make a weapon particularly useful against undead opponents by infusing it with magical daylight.

Slime Harden: (Transmutation) You cause the outer surface of the target ooze to harden negating an ooze's engulf and split special abilities.

*Negate Defenses
A negate defense spell takes away the opponent's ability to use mundane defenses (armor, shield, gauntlets, etc. NOT defensive skills). There are a few negate defense spells that negate magical defense as well, they are labeled clearly.
Save: Yes

Crystal and Topaz: 1 round
Amber and Sapphire: 2 rounds
Emerald and Ruby: 3 rounds
Obsidian: 4 rounds

Spirit of Grief's Shadow: The mystic calls upon grieving spirits to share their pain and sorrow with her enemies, these unconsolable spirits tug and pull at the target, for the duration allowed, causing their magical defenses and any unarmed tech defenses to fail.

*AoE Negate Defenses
A negate defense spell takes away the opponent's ability to use mundane defenses (armor, shield, gauntlets, etc. NOT defensive skills). There are a few negate defense spells that negate magical defense as well, they are labeled clearly.
Save: Yes

Crystal and Topaz: n/a
Amber and Sapphire: 1 round / 2 NPCs
Emerald and Ruby: 2 rounds / 3 NPCs
Obsidian: 3 rounds / 4 NPCs

Maggot Infestation: This is a far more terrible way to locate the weak points of defense in her enemies, but nonetheless quite effective. With a motion of her hands to the targets, a creature is infested with maggots across their body. The small creatures begin to writhe and wiggle attempting to free themselves, and crawl out of their armor at all the weak points where they can get free. This shows everyone where the weakened areas are, so that mundane defenses are negated per the rank chart for number of targets and how many rounds.

*Evades
Evades allow you to take less damage from one attack, or even evade damage altogether.
Save: No

Crystal and Topaz: Evade 1/4 Dmg
Amber & Sapphire: Evade 1/2 Dmg
Emerald, Ruby & Obsidian: Evade Full Dmg

Shield of Bone: A ring of ghostly fog swirls in front of the target. With a swirl, the fog dissipates, leaving behind a shield of human bones. The attack made upon the target is stopped by this bony shield, allowing her to evade as much damage as allowed by the rank chart.

Heals

Sapphire: Heal up to 20hp
Emerald: Heal 1/2 Dmg or 25hp

Obsidian: Heal Full Dmg [5 PC's]

Valiant Spirit: Urging each person's own magic within their soul to stir aids in their healing.

Healing Effects
You may write remove/cures at Amber level and up. In some cases, the DM may require certain things to happen before a poison/disease/etc is removed such as a mission to find a rare herb that is used in the cure, or a certain level of mage needed to remove that level of disease. Also, any remove or cure spell is subject to DM Approval.
Save: No, unless resistant for some reason.
Duration: A Healing Effect spell is instantaneous.
*Note: You may use healing spells inside or outside of combat. If used within combat, they do count as one of your allowed combat spells.

Remove Illness: (Conjuration) This spell removes a sickness or illness from which the target is suffering.

Remove Blindness/Deafness: (Conjuration) This spell cures magical or mundane blindness or deafness (unless they have a flaw, or the mun is unwilling, per DM approval).

Tactic and Talent Buffs
You may only have one tactic/talent buff spell working at a time. For example: If you have a spell buffing Listen, you can't also buff Diplomacy at the same time. The only exception would be a dual spell that divides the points between two tactics/talents such as at Ruby you could have +2 to Diplomacy, +2 to Insight for one spell.
Save: No
Special: If you are debuffing a target, a save will be needed!
Duration: A Tactic/Talent Buff lasts through one adventure. You cannot have any other tactic or talent "buffs" going at the same time.

Crystal & Topaz: +1
Amber & Sapphire: +2
Emerald: +3

Skill Effects
Skill effects are effect spells that mimic skills that we already have in place. While we do allow mages some leeway in writing these type of spells, there are some limits and the DM always has final say if they allow you to use these spells without having the actual skill, or in cases like Remove Curse some items may simple not be able to have the curse removed.
Save: Not usually, unless resistant for some reason.
Duration: Depends, some are instantaneous (such as a remove curse), and some last one adventure (such as darkvision or endure elements). If your skill effect spell doesn't fit with any of the above, then use the range/duration chart for flavor effects.

Absorbing Touch: (Transmutation) You absorb one object that your hand touches into your body. You can absorb any nonmagical, nonliving object weighing no more than 1 pound per gemstone level. A container and its contents count as a single object. Objects in the possession of another creature receive a save to prevent absorption. This is a non-combat spell. An absorbed object melds with your hand. If you dismiss the spell, the item appears in the hand that absorbed it, or falls to the ground if that hand is full. Multiple castings let you absorb additional items, but you can only store a single item per hand.

Alchemical Allocation: This spell causes a pale aura to emanate from your mouth. If you consume a potion or elixir following the casting of this spell, you can spit it back into its container immediately so that it can be used again. You gain all the benefits of the potion or elixir, but it is not consumed. You can only gain the benefits of one potion or elixir at a time, per each casting of this spell. If this is used in combat, the casting of this spell and drinking of the potion uses your turn of combat even if you have a skill that says otherwise.

Dead Man's Ink: When you cast this spell, you can remove an enchanted tattoo from a slain target and place it upon the skin of a willing subject, including, if you choose, yourself. You cannot use this spell to place an enchanted tattoo which requires an open magic item slot upon a creature which already has that slot occupied.

Lily Pad Stride: Your every footstep creates aquatic plants capable of supporting your weight and that of any creature of your size or smaller that is following you. These lily pads only appear when you cross water or other liquids which do not immediately destroy plants. You can walk across these liquid surfaces without any fear of stumbling.

Magic Tailor: (Alteration) This spell alters the size and shape of a normal garment or piece of leather or cloth armor to fit the wearer. Metallic armor and magical armor cannot be altered with this spell. Magical garments can be altered if the owner makes a successful saving throw.

Flavor Effects
Flavor effects are just what they are called - flavor for your roleplay. These are spells that do not play a huge part in the direction of a quest or adventure, though in all things the DM does have final say. Flavor effect spells are things such as a butler to clean your home, a mount to ride, etc.
Save: No, unless resistant for some reason.

Absorbing Inhalation: (Transmutation [air]) You grant your lungs inhuman strength and capacity, allowing you to harmlessly and completely inhale one gas, fog, smoke, mist, or similar cloud-like effect. Inhaling the cloud removes it from the area, leaving normal air in its place. If the cloud is too large for you to affect with a single casting of this spell, you may instead inhale a portion of the cloud, but you must inhale the portion of the cloud closest to you. This spell has no effect on gaseous creatures. While inhaled, the cloud does not harm you. You may keep the cloud harmlessly contained within you for up to 1 round per gemstone level, but you must hold your breath to do so (even if you do not normally have to breathe).

Tiny Hut: (Evocation [force]) You create an unmoving, opaque sphere of force of any color you desire around yourself. Half the sphere projects above the ground, and the lower hemisphere passes through the ground. As many as nine other Medium creatures can fit into the field with you; they can freely pass into and out of the hut without harming it. However, if you remove yourself from the hut, the spell ends. The temperature inside the hut is 70° F if the exterior temperature is between 0° and 100° F. An exterior temperature below 0° or above 100° lowers or raises the interior temperature on a 1-degree-for-1 basis. The hut also provides protection against the elements, such as rain, dust, and sandstorms. The hut withstands any wind of less than hurricane force, but a hurricane (75+ mph wind speed) or greater force destroys it. The interior of the hut is a hemisphere. You can illuminate it dimly upon command or extinguish the light as desired. Although the force field is opaque from the outside, it is transparent from within.
