I'd like to join.

I'll think of something by tomorrow.

edit: How about a three-keen drummer who can play the drums via five chains (one for each hand and one in his mouth)? I'll probably use snizor's Master of Chains build

Count me interested in the band idea. I've been wanting to try out a Suel Arcanamach -> Sublime Chord build for a while. would look something like Duskblade 2/Paladin (Harmonious Knight [Champions of Valor Web Enhancement]) 4/Suel Arcanamach 4/Sublime Chord 2/Virtuoso 2/Spellsword 1/Abjurant Champion 5. Yay, needlessly complicated gish build. In his (or her) free time, s/he'd probably be the drummer. Because you guys are lacking a drummer.

I'm the singer/guitarist.

Name: Alexi Laiho.

Perform(Electric Guitar)
Intimidate

No, I do not have ranks in perform(sing), why do you ask?

EDIT: I did have a drummer build, but I'm throwing in my true passion, which is that of singer/electric guitarist.

We need a keyboardist.

Dude, does it have to be CoB? :P

I'm thinking about going with Glenn Tipton or Dave Murray if we're gonna give our characters names of real musicians though :D

@skydragonknight: Bwahaha, that's great. I'd bet there will be countless references to songs on everyone's part, however thinly veiled. Shall I assume you're interested?

Both of the games I was on a waiting list for have pulled me in the past week, so others can have first dibs on this one. Though, if you'd like, I wouldn't mind designing a music-based villain.

One of you needs to do a warforged based on this one. Or just to be a jerk, a swift hunter based on this one.

[spoiler=If you don't get it]In the games it comes from, the second theme overrides any other character's theme song which may be playing, even the final boss. This led to many memes.[/spoiler]

The tier system in a nutshell:

Tier 5: An expert cartographer or a decent marksman.
Tier 4: An expert marksman.
Tier 3: An expert marksman, cartographer and chef who can tie strong knots and is trained in hostage negotiation or a marksman so good he can shoot down every bullet fired by a minigun while armed with a rusted single-shot pistol that veers to the left.
Tier 2: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything, or the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.

More in line with the original intent (although I'm sure I could find a theme song to go with the Sublime Arcanamach, and a band sounds cool), I've had an idea for a character based off these two songs. The lyrics are in German, but if your google-fu is strong enough, finding english translations shouldn't be hard. I found them on my first try, so that's saying something. ;)
The idea would be a Hellfire Warlock, possibly under 10 years old (Age tables in the PHB? Never heard of those  :pout). A little girl giggling merrily as she kills people left and right just has this certain... je-ne-sais-quois to it. (Can you tell I'm a Mariko fan? :D)

I'll see you and raise.

Anyway, making a Swift Hunter like Trombe is surprisingly interesting. I'll have to see how that goes...

I raise your raise. (That's Caro La Ruche's voice actress. If you find Sephiroth Kyosuke's version I will admit defeat)

See if you can get a version of the divine minion template that lets you turn into a horse. Then get someone else to play a warblade/cavalier -Remember, "Real men ride each other". :D

EDIT: Rave Master (Wikipedia page here) could provide further inspiration.

Mmh, might go with an Artificer of sorts...

Maybe inspired by Lemmy instead of Glenn Tipton, complete with magical gauntlet, aka Iron Fist :P

Or you can go with a Warforged artificer to the tune of Iron Man by Black Sabbath.
