I am using the paper mods. Although, without a proper scanner I am relying on online materials.

Busy day, posting in a few hours. I'm all aboard the "Looking for an Inn" plan, as I will be doing the "Looking for the lost ranger" after we have rooms for the night. So feel free to move things forward without me posting, if you want to.


I will be going out tonight and absent for much of tomorrow. We will continue tomorrow night.


We may have lost some folks here already. The PbP is much slower than the table top.

Some people also just tend to speak up less and might be waiting for something that has a little more "direction" - the first combat, for instance. :)

These early mods usually follow a specific format that involves gathering info from the town so that you can find the dungeon, which is not quite the same as how PF adventures usually go; in PF APs usually you have an attack at the opener (Hollywood style) and then you follow on that. So it's entirely possible that some people just aren't used to the format! :D


Ah. Ok. I'll keep in mind. I have never GMed a pathfinder AP.

Worry not, I -at least- am still here. Curious thing: I am Spanish, and for us Christmash lasts until today.

Which is my lil sister's birthday also.

So I have been a tad busy yesterday and today, but posting and inquiring will resume as normal tonight and the following days.

Still kicking around.

Siondel is very happy to speak with some tonwsfolks' pets/livestock, but haven't had opportunity yet.

Between the holidays and my youngest daughter's birthday my time has been very limited as of late, but after this weekend things should be lightening up over here.

Yes, it was not an ideal time to start a campaign. I found these old mods and wanted to relive junior high.


Siondel:
I don't think that most places, homes, inns, and taverns would allow a bear, even a cub, inside the building. I will say that this innkeeper allows it for some reason, but in the future, let's take this into consideration. This is especially true when the bear increases in size.

If you choose to keep watch, the sleeping character may sleep with a weapon, but should not sleep in armor. Unless you have some special spells or provision, a character that sleeps in armor will acquire the fatigued condition the following day.

Okay, he's going to press the issue going forward, if the owner says to 86 the bear, so be it.

If they don't say anything, well, they should've spoken up if they have a prob.

Re: armor, can normally sleep in light armor no prob, or medium with endurance. I'd this a departure from standard rules for the table?


ok, I have Cirilis and Zirul in one room with Ravenna and Siondel in the next and across the hall is Aaagghh and Jax. I just need to know who sleeps in armor, with weapons or takes watch first.

Per CRB p. 150, Sleeping in light armor is ok. There will be penalties for sleeping in other types or getting reduced hours of sleep.

We will proceed once this is resolved.

I will sleep in my chainshirt, with my weapons close to me. Usually I woulfn't but we've heard those spooky things about disappearances.


1 person marked this as a favorite.


Excellent. It looks like you are ready for the next post which is lengthy. I went to post this morning and found the site down most of the day. I will have to post tomorrow.


I am currently suffering from vertigo. Everything is spinning. I will be posting soon, just trying to resolve this.

Me: Man, I suffered from that, I hope he gets well soon.
Chaotic Evil Me: That's what happens when you dump CON! MWAHAHAHAHAH!

Hope you recover soon ^^

Same here, I hope all is well.

That sounds like a big bag of no fun. :/


Thanks. Don't worry about posting in order, I will recap each round.


Fighter 2|HP26/26|AC17T11FF16|F6R1W2|Init+1|Per4

So are those in other rooms who are keeping watch unable to hear any noise?


Make a perception check. You can make another after melee begins.


You have gotten to this point quickly. It was why I chose this mod, but we had a battle map for it. I am going to have to find a way to use a battle map here to keep it from getting confusing.

Google docs is nice
I also like rolld20


I'm a new at pbp. I will create it in paint and share it using Google docs. It will slow down game play though. :(


I'm still here. I am working on a map.


I'm going to attempt to scan mod map tonight. If it does not work, I will use home made ones.


Ok. I have scanned original maps, but my home computer is old and I am having trouble sharing the link. As soon as I figure it out, we'll get going.


Fighter 2|HP26/26|AC17T11FF16|F6R1W2|Init+1|Per4

Ready and willing


The millennium falcon is more reliable than my home laptop. Frustrated!


Fighter 2|HP26/26|AC17T11FF16|F6R1W2|Init+1|Per4

Just go by Theatre of the Mind combat?

I don't mind Theatre of the Mind, or badly drawn maps in Paint.

Been playing with my homegroup for 8 years and we've only drawn maps for gimmicky battles or big bosses. Key is describing things, and as nobody is focused around AoOs positioning isn't that important.


Great. We'll keep it going this way until I figure out why my computer won't let me copy and paste link from Google drive as I have in the past. Thank you all.


Very busy day, I won't be able to post until tomorrow.


Map of Golden Grain Inn? hopefully


Ok. Map is up, albeit upside down. I know how to scan the next ones properly.


Typically, I like to cover the parts of the map that adventurers haven't seen yet and I will find a way to do this on future maps I believe. I just got excited that I got the link to work and I didn't want the game to grind to a halt. So we'll use theatre of the mind to pretend that we cannot see where we haven't been. The party has been on the first floor and the upper floor so far.


Does everyone understand where we are on the map? If so, agree on a marching order. It will be useful for tunnels as well later on.


Fighter 2|HP26/26|AC17T11FF16|F6R1W2|Init+1|Per4

Augier should be in the middle


I'm not sure if you know this, but I believe that you can attack with a reach weapon with an ally in front, so if the number two person had a spear , they could attack the enemy in front.


Fighter 2|HP26/26|AC17T11FF16|F6R1W2|Init+1|Per4

Augier has a spear so he can poke poke.


I will not be able to post until tomorrow evening. Very busy next 24 hours.

I will be out of town late tonight and all weekend, back Monday. Bot if needed.

Note that one of Ravenna's core tactics if a fight breaks out and she can get to the front is the use of the opportune parry and riposte swashbuckler ability.

Will do. Have fun.


How would you like to split treasure? I am going to put the list on a Google spreadsheet for tracking.
