'''Harper''' is a default prestige class with Arelith specific changes and new additions.
__TOC__
__TOC__


== Introduction ==
Prefixindex one way


Arelith Harpers enjoy many changes that benefit the different aspects and paths the class can take. There are '''five''' prestige classes for Harpers. Mechanical changes are included in the [[#Class Mechanics]] on this page and explained in each classes' [[#Arelith Changes]] section. Base mechanics can be found [https://nwn.fandom.com/wiki/Harper_scout on NWNWiki]. The [[#Roleplay Tips]] section provides suggestions for character development.
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Category:S}}


'''Harpers have a required DM [[#Token Process]] approval and have additional [[#Expectations]].'''
Prefixindex another way


=== Token Process ===
{{Special:PrefixIndex|prefix=Spell|namespace=14}}


In addition to the mechanical requirements listed below, players will also need DM approval, where only after will they be assimilated into the guild.


To apply for a Prestige Class token, please [[Contacting DMs|contact DMs]] on the forums, via PM to Active DM's.
= API stuff =


Please study the Roleplay tips below. Your concept ''must'' understand secrecy and display the ability to work with a secret organization, as well as show why the Harpers would be interested at all.
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox good since its the sandbox, makes the sub-modules and parameters more obvious]
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Tutorial maybe should have started here]
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=help help from the mediawiki api's help call]
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Query a mediawiki api sub-page on just query that's good]
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page main page mediawiki api]
* [http://wiki.nwnarelith.com/w/api.php?action=help&modules=main help from arelith's own outdated version of the mediwiki]


Additionally, no Drow or other monster race will be considered for this PRC unless they are good-aligned via the normal reward.
Concepts


=== Expectations ===
* <code>&action=query</code> > <code>&list=categorymembers</code> > <code>&cmtitle=Category:Spells</code>
** Seems to have better sorting than generator
** Creates a "cateogrymembers" sub-heading under the query
** Creates a list of the category members identified in the <code>&cmtitle=</code> parameter
** Doesn't update the details of those members based on query > <code>&prop=</code> parameters
** Has its own <code>&cmprop=</code> sub-property parameter to see more under each entry in the categorymembers section, more limited than <code>&prop=</code>
** <code>&cmprop=</code> is more focused on sorting the results: <code>&cmprop=ids|title|sortkey|sortkeyprefix|type|timestamp</code>
* <code>&action=query</code> > <code>&generator=categorymembers</code> > <code>&gcmtitle=Category:Spells</code>
** Doesn't create a seperate sub-heading under the query
** Replaces any <code>&titles=</code> pages that would normally show up as pages > 0, 1, 2, etc... under the query
** Essentially passes each page in the <code>&gcmtitle=</code> category page into the pages > 0, 1, 2, etc..., creating unique entries for each page under the query as if all the pages had been passed
** Since it just "populates" all the pages under the query, it does capture query > <code>&prop=transcludedin|templates|revisions|redirects|etc...</code> parameters across the whole generated list of pages
** Does also have its own <code>&cmprop=</code> which is smaller and also seems to be focused on sorting, but I've tested and this parameter doesn't work in this version of the Arelith wiki software


If you want to take one of the Harper prestige classes, and to be counted as a full-fledged Harper for systems purposes you need to get a token from a DM (first meeting the requirements above).  However, the Harpers have many allies, and you can play an ally of the Harpers without having the token or taking a class.
Example API call on Arelith's mediawiki api:


You could play a starting character as an agent of the Harpers, although getting in contact with the existing Harpers on Arelith island might take a very long time given their secrecy.
* <code>http://wiki.nwnarelith.com/w/api.php?action=query&generator=categorymembers&gcmtitle=Category:Spells&gcmlimit=max&gcmtype=page&format=json&formatversion=2</code>
** <code>/w/api.php?action=query</code> is a query action, can only have one action at a time
** <code>&generator=categorymembers</code> is a generator, rather than using list and then querying the specific page for its contents, get the details at the same time with a generator [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Query#Generators see more on query & generators.] But, not positive on how this is different from list yet.
** <code>&gcmtitle=Category:Spells</code> title of the page that's being queried, other ways to do this like id -- not sure yet how this is different from things like parse action and text vs title vs page, is part of [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=query%2Bcategorymembers categorymembers]
** <code>&gcmlimit=max</code> so it shows all results on one page, APIs look like limited to 500, is part of [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=query%2Bcategorymembers categorymembers]
** <code>&gcmtype=page</code> so it just shows the pages in the generator category and not the sub-categories, can also filter with file, page, subcat -- or using cmnamespace specifically use the namespace like 14 is subcat, is part of [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=query%2Bcategorymembers categorymembers]
** <code>&format=json</code> outputs in json so its easily scrapeable
** <code>&formatversion=2</code> fancier json with tabs for viewing raw with pretty waterfall version


Players on Arelith do not need to fear that their Harper class is metagamed from the playerlist, as the player's build is hidden.  The class abilities are also quite subtle, so if you're careful it won't be obvious that you have the class.

WARNING: If your Harper betrays the Harper Cell or outs other Harpers, they risk character deletion should they be killed, as Harpers do not tolerate outers/betrayers in their own cell.
https://paletton.com/ -- picking colors


=== The Harper Code ===
http://wang.wustl.edu/mediawiki/extensions/index.php -- excel paste tables


* ''Harpers work against villainy and wickedness wherever they find it, but they work ever mindful of the consequences of what they do.''
https://www.tablesgenerator.com/mediawiki_tables -- excel paste tables graphical editor
* ''All beings should walk free of fear, with the right to live their lives as they wish.''
* ''The rule of law aids peace and fosters freedom, so long as the laws are just and those who enforce them lenient and understanding.''
* ''No extreme is good. For freedom to flourish, all must be in balance: the powers of realms, the reaches of the cities and the wilderlands into each other, and the influence of one being over another.''
* ''Whatever it takes, a Harper will do. Pride never rules the deeds of a true Harper.''
* ''Freedom is a multiversal right, though Harpers can spare themselves less freedom than those they work to protect when the need presents itself.''
* ''Harpers police their own. A Harper who hears the call of personal power can no longer hear the sweet song of the harp. A Harper who seizes power, and holds it above all else, is a traitor to the harp. Traitors must die for freedom to live.''
* ''Without a past, no being can appreciate what they have, and where they may be going.''

|'''Blinding Speed'''
https://nwn.fandom.com/wiki/Piercing-slashing_damage
| -
https://nwn.fandom.com/wiki/Damage_bonus -- complicated damage type interactions
| [[Harper#Harper Scout|Harper Scout]] levels count for the reduction of Blinding Speed's [[Feat_changes#Modified_Feats|Arelith specific]] 8 turn cooldown. The cooldown of Blinding Speed is reduced by 1 turn every 6 combined [[Assassin]], [[Harper#Harper Scout|Harper Scout]], [[Rogue]], [[Shadowdancer]] and ([[Swashbuckler]] / 2) levels. Rogue levels are -not- required for this bonus to trigger. Although all applicable class levels stack, [[Swashbuckler]] adds 1 effective level towards the cooldown per 2 [[Swashbuckler]] levels.


|-
Useful when tracking down changes/historical stuff related to updates:
|'''Specialty Weapons'''
| -
| [[Assassin]], [[Harper#Harper Scout|Harper Scout]], [[Rogue]], and [[Shadowdancer]] levels stack with [[Rogue]] levels when qualifying for the +1 AB to Rogue proficiency weapons at levels 19 and 24. Rogue levels are required for this bonus to trigger. At 19 combined levels, gain +1 AB when using any Rogue Proficiency weapon, except the quarterstaff. At 24 combined levels, gain +1 additional AB when using any Rogue Proficiency weapon, except the quarterstaff. These bonuses add to a weapon's non-magical Attack Bonus and allow Damage Reduction penetration. For example, a +3 AB weapon will become +5, capable of bypassing Stoneskin or Premonition, with 16 rogue 5 shadowdancer and 3 assassin combined levels.

Old update thread, doesn't have divine focus update or deck of stars -- https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://arelith.com/node/1120*
|'''Lightly Armored'''
| -
| [[Assassin]], [[Harper#Harper Scout|Harper Scout]], [[Rogue]], and [[Shadowdancer]] levels stack with Rogue levels for the purpose of calculating how much lost DEX is regained as Dodge AC via the Lightly Armored feat. Rogue levels are required for this bonus to trigger. Light armor will receive all AC lost to the dex cap as Dodge AC, subject to a cap of AC/4 combined levels. For example, if you have 6 rogue and 3 assassin levels and 28 of dex (modifier 9), and you are using a Studded Leather Armor - which has a max dex modifier of 4 - then, you'd have 4 of normal dex AC, and 2 of extra Dodge AC, and lose 2 points of AC until combined level 15.

|'''Stealth Speed Increase'''
| -
| [[Assassin]], [[Harper#Harper Scout|Harper Scout]], [[Rogue]], and [[Shadowdancer]] levels stack with Rogue levels when qualifying for the in stealth rogue speed increase, this does include the AB bonus upon leaving stealth for [[Harper#Harper Scout|Harper Scout]]. Rogue levels are required for this bonus to trigger. At combined level 16, movement speed penalty in stealth is reduced by 10%. At combined level 20, movement speed penalty in stealth is reduced by 20%. At combined level 24, movement speed penalty in stealth is reduced by 30%. If the character has monk levels 10% of the bonus is removed.

|'''Voting'''
| -
| Harper Scout can vote in every election, even in places where they are not a citizen. The other Harper classes get this ability as well, but only with a full 5 levels in the class. However, no Harper (nobody with the Prestige Class permission token) may stand for election as a settlement leader. If the Harpers wish to rule directly, they will need an ally to stand in their place.

|-
|'''Caster Level'''
| -
| Levels 1, 3 and 5 level of [[Harper#Harper_Scout|Harper Scout]] increases caster level. These levels add dispel resistance, DC calculations and spell penetration as caster levels would normally. The levels do not allow you to learn new spells as you level. The levels do not add known or spells per day for sorcerer. The levels do add wizard and divine spell slots. Additionally, caster levels do not count towards the epic caster requirements of epic spells. You still need 21 levels in wizard or sorcerer to become an epic caster to qualify. For example, 15 sorcerer / 5 harper mage would have the known spells and spells per day of a level 15 sorcerer (including only having up to circle 7 spells) and cast spells as a level 20.

|'''Divine Caster Level'''
| -
| Each level of [[Harper#Harper_Priest|Harper Priest]] increases divine caster level. These levels add dispel resistance, DC calculations and spell penetration as caster levels would normally. The levels do not allow you to learn new spells as you level. The levels do not add known or spells per day for spontaneous casters: shaman and favored soul. The levels do add to divine preparation casting spell slots. Additionally, caster levels do not count towards the epic caster requirements of epic spells. You still need 21 levels in a primary casting class to become an epic caster to qualify. For example, 15 shaman / 5 harper priest would have the known spells and spells per day of a level 15 sorcerer (including only having up to circle 7 spells) and cast spells as a level 20.

Prefixindex one way

Prefixindex another way


API stuff

Concepts

  • &action=query > &list=categorymembers > &cmtitle=Category:Spells
    • Seems to have better sorting than generator
    • Creates a "cateogrymembers" sub-heading under the query
    • Creates a list of the category members identified in the &cmtitle= parameter
    • Doesn't update the details of those members based on query > &prop= parameters
    • Has its own &cmprop= sub-property parameter to see more under each entry in the categorymembers section, more limited than &prop=
    • &cmprop= is more focused on sorting the results: &cmprop=ids|title|sortkey|sortkeyprefix|type|timestamp
  • &action=query > &generator=categorymembers > &gcmtitle=Category:Spells
    • Doesn't create a seperate sub-heading under the query
    • Replaces any &titles= pages that would normally show up as pages > 0, 1, 2, etc... under the query
    • Essentially passes each page in the &gcmtitle= category page into the pages > 0, 1, 2, etc..., creating unique entries for each page under the query as if all the pages had been passed
    • Since it just "populates" all the pages under the query, it does capture query > &prop=transcludedin|templates|revisions|redirects|etc... parameters across the whole generated list of pages
    • Does also have its own &cmprop= which is smaller and also seems to be focused on sorting, but I've tested and this parameter doesn't work in this version of the Arelith wiki software

Example API call on Arelith's mediawiki api:

  • http://wiki.nwnarelith.com/w/api.php?action=query&generator=categorymembers&gcmtitle=Category:Spells&gcmlimit=max&gcmtype=page&format=json&formatversion=2
    • /w/api.php?action=query is a query action, can only have one action at a time
    • &generator=categorymembers is a generator, rather than using list and then querying the specific page for its contents, get the details at the same time with a generator see more on query & generators. But, not positive on how this is different from list yet.
    • &gcmtitle=Category:Spells title of the page that's being queried, other ways to do this like id -- not sure yet how this is different from things like parse action and text vs title vs page, is part of categorymembers
    • &gcmlimit=max so it shows all results on one page, APIs look like limited to 500, is part of categorymembers
    • &gcmtype=page so it just shows the pages in the generator category and not the sub-categories, can also filter with file, page, subcat -- or using cmnamespace specifically use the namespace like 14 is subcat, is part of categorymembers
    • &format=json outputs in json so its easily scrapeable
    • &formatversion=2 fancier json with tabs for viewing raw with pretty waterfall version
