<Kotono> Also roll 1d4+1 and post that, Iddy.

What follows is two days of the worst, most violent stomach flu Veren's ever had. Not that this is hard with amnesia and all, but the point is that he spends two days with both ends being all hands on deck for repeated and vigorous evacuations. Really, the migraine headache and fever chills that go with it just seems like extraneous  misery, but he endures all of it and comes out smarter for it.

Most of that sounds like dysentery.

I've had that before.

Twice.

Okay, so Conealing Amorpha says: Using concealing amorpha, you weave a quasi-real membrane around yourself. You remain visible within the translucent, amorphous enclosure. This distortion grants you concealment (opponents have a 20% miss chance), thanks to the rippling membrane encasing your form.

Now, I know it doesn't grant total concealment, only partial. What kind of ways can I use it with stealth? I know I can't exactly do hiding in plain sight type stuff, but I'm sure it comes into play somewhere.

I'll answer that when I'm more coherent, Iddy. As for now, here's a preview of Jetina. She's about 90% done, but the last 10% is a little too much for me right now. Sleepy.

Special Attacks: Smite evil 2/day, favored enemies (undead+4, monstrous humanoids+2), channel energy(4d6+7; DC 15).
Special Qualities: Aura of good, detect evil, divine grace, aura of courage, divine health, damage reduction 1/-, healing hands, aura of protection(DC 17), effortless healing, lingering healing(4).

She uses the inquisitor paladin variant. This loses her lay on hands, turn undead and favored enemy. As healer gives turn undead and makes the other two irrelevant, trading those for favored enemy makes perfect sense. She also trades her mount for battle scarred paladin (see homebrew over on the Balmuria:Rules and Setting board) and paladin spellcasting for bonus feats.

Her healing's pretty good. A typical CLW from her heals 1d8+12 and grants fast healing 4 for an additional 7 rounds after. She doesn't provoke AoOs when casting healing spells, so she's a natural combat medic. As healers know their entire spell list and cast spontaneously, she has a whole lot of ways to fix injuries and negative conditions.

While she does have offensive options with her greatsword, she's primarily a healer who can pitch in during combat.

PS: Check out healer in homebrew. There's a ton of spell choices, so suggesting useful ones would be helpful. I'll note that vigor and the like are unusually sub-par for her, since she gives out fast healing when she casts a healing spell anyway.

After the issue with the food, purify food and drink is probably a no-brainer, along with create food and water maybe? Prestidigitation can make all the food have a better flavor and texture if we want.

Gildas had a lot of success with Greater Resistance since it's basically +3 to all saves for a spell slot.

Do her healing bonuses stack with Healing Hymn's?

She doesn't get prestidigitation, but y'all can supply that. Greater resistance isn't a bad idea and she can hand that out on request - once she gains another level, since she doesn't get that until 8th level, as healers are on sorcerer progression.

Healing hymn stacks with her bonuses to healing. So how much would a typical healing hymn boost her spells?

Also, if anyone has good PrC suggestions for her, I'm all ears. It would probably be on the paladin side. In a related tangent, she'll be getting an ACF for unicorn companion next level.

A typical CLW from her heals 1d8+21 and grants fast healing 4 for an additional 7 rounds after, assuming healing hymn. Impressive.

I wonder what justifies this level of healing, hm?

Radiant Servant of Pelor? Boosts the undead-hate and healing, it looks. (Also the light thing, considering the sea of light.)

Hmm... All of these probably need work (everything seems to), but Hospitaler, Combat Medic, or Sanctified One (Ehlonna) might mesh well.

Knight Protector might, but that's a bit more front-liney.

Todo list:

1. Iddy's fluff piece. Sorry about the delay, I may do a second to compensate.
2. Sheet audit for Iddy post rebuild.
3. Concealing amorpha question from a few posts back.
4. Names and places topic. That's a lot of work, so if someone wants to volunteer, I'm all for it. This is by far the most work, so don't expect miracles here if I don't get to it or get a volunteer.

I have time off this coming week or two, so I'm looking to trim down my backlog. If I missed anything, post it here.

I'd be happy to hear any final insights you said there might be from http://www.soulriders.net/forum/index.php/topic,103205.msg1054039.html#msg1054039

I also want to see a variant of Tainted Sorcerer/Scholar that fits well with the world, or the feat(s) version of the main features, like we talked about.
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Not in order of resolution at this point since I'm just tossing them onto the list.

5. Finish research post for Cor.
6. Tainted sorc stuff.
