But that doesn't necessarily mean we are. But, to a Kore-type character, it does.

So... since we need to make lots of water... here is how Merix will try to do it (and I think Kermit agrees)

Merix use an SA to start making mental control over a bunch of seeds, to link them to me. and to get them planted around the area.

To explain:

I fully expect the result to be awesome sauce.... then we just need to get water after that...

Oh.. any help both with preparing the seeds and especially during the trance in 2-3 (maybe 4 if I get low results) rounds.

I know class features are abstracted in this game. However some would have a big effect on the village. http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/3rd-par ... ign/shaman shows a shaman class that could easily be Myron. At 3rd level the spirit companion grants commune with spirits daily (augury at 3rd, Divination at 5th, commune at 9th)& it is as effective as a LV20 casting. Myron should be about LV5 based on the spells cast-able chart. So that would become Divination 30 times per month. So would Narasimha. This we would need to get a Spirit Guide to access it though. I've used my FHs & SAs to Commune with spirits a few times already but if he was stat-ed would that help the village more by giving access to such abilities? I don't know but finding out might be worth it.

For water we could make a semi-permanent portal to the plane of water.. presto enough water.

Decanter of endless water also works & with less invasion.

Yeah, portals to an elemental plane always run the risk of attracting nasties.

okay... here is my thumb nail sketch, this time with perspective and scale in mind... the "man" or whatever he will end up being, is standing on the same small mountain/hill as the Dukes keep is on, just above the mine, looking roughly south-west as volcano you can see it more or less exactly south west from him and is soulbreak volcano.

This thumb nail is what I'll use to draw the final image should I succeed...
please. those who have "details" on stuff such as the cloud manor, details, details and more details, so I can paint it to the right look...
anything I've missed on the thumb?

Image

View explanation: (And yes, I know that places the BG "islands" to far to the left and the underwater temple/tower to far to the right, but I wanted it to be a good view, so I moved something around a little....

That picture looks awesome looks!

For details on the cloud mansion: now that cloud eye has gone to town with modifications the mansion looks very steampunky and Victorian, and it also has a number of turrets on the cloud outside of the house, with a huge gun poking out of the bottom of the cloud.

The 'cloud island' it's on is all clouds and the mansion itself is 'solid cloud'( it looks like a solid substance but it's really just dense cloud), but the turrets and to an extent the mansion itself (from his computer and other equipment) are shot through with metal(probably copper). There are also a number of gems integrated into things for power and focusing, but I doubt you could see those from a distance.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone involved, Grikkul and Evan have been some of the most fun characters I've played :)

I've written a short story to tie up some of Grikkul's loose ends (definitely not canon, and i apologise for hijacking a few other characters along the way), but here it is if you'd care to read it:

And, naturally, Narasimha wasn't in the story. Otherwise, her oddity might draw attention away from the main protagonist.

I like to think that by that point in the history, there is a city of clouds and brass floating among the branches of the trees, with a stately mansion in the center almost hidden by all of the pipes and machinery, which power the entirety of the refuge. :)
