Cool stuff Lareg, I hope my invention of Desoto as a neighbourhood name that survived fits what you've created alright.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Yeah. It sounds fine. As I said, I'd rather leave plenty of room for everyone to flesh out their backstory as much or as little as they like. There is nothing more frustrating than having this character backstory worked out and then having the campaign world throw a wrench in it.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Going to be out of town the end of this coming week (3/27) so won't be getting back to posts right away. Should be back to normal by the end of the month.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Hey Lareg, question on the DM Only spoilers. Are we supposed to be reading that as players and assuming our characters don't know what is in there or not read it at all?


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

That's totally up to you. I put the spoilers up incase there are disputes. It's sort of like rolling dice behind the screen. If need be, feel free to peak behind the screen, so to speak. Whatever you see, your character does not know.


Male Dwarf Ancestral Steward (Fighter) 2; 17/21 HP; +4 Init, +6 Percpt; AC 19, Touch 12, FF 17; +5 Fort, +2 Ref, +1 Will

How are we to calculate HP for level ups?


Male Dwarf Ancestral Steward (Fighter) 2; 17/21 HP; +4 Init, +6 Percpt; AC 19, Touch 12, FF 17; +5 Fort, +2 Ref, +1 Will

Also, if it's not too much trouble, would you mind giving me an illustrating example of how the Guardian Crystal class ability works? I'm a little hazy on it but it seems like a good feature so I'd like to be able to put it to use if it comes up. I think I'm just unclear because I don't have much experience in the magic item creation department. Thanks so much.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Average +1 HP / level. I'll take some time tomorrow to provide an example of guardian crystal use.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Lore type thing that occurred to me. The remains of the obsidian golem would be used to shore up the dome right?


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

When the obsidian elemental died it shattered into small shards that seem much smaller than any of the tile / block you've seen.


Male Symbiont (Human) Cleric (Ancestral Priest) 5; HP 30/30; +0 Init; +7 Perception; AC 18 (Flat 18, Touch 10); Fort +6, Ref +1, Will +8

Yeah, I know the feeling of all those shards :P


Male Dwarf Ancestral Steward (Fighter) 2; 17/21 HP; +4 Init, +6 Percpt; AC 19, Touch 12, FF 17; +5 Fort, +2 Ref, +1 Will

Stats updated to level 2.


Female Human Obsidian Walker (Ranger) 5

1d10 ⇒ 10


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Feel free to list requested items here or roleplay the request in the game play thread. As I clarified in thread, each character may request up to 1000 gp of non-magical supplies.

Keep in mind that water and food can be provided by the magical items once the group is far enough away from the corridor. Likewise, the bowl can duplicate small mundane objects (a single round of ammo could be duplicated three / day).


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Hrm, first time I'm playing a gun using character. Is three ammo between two gunners per day enough for how long we might be away from the Dome?


Female Human Obsidian Walker (Ranger) 5

Probably not but we can make our own. Duplicating a lead bar is probably a better idea.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

It would have to be a small lead bar to fit in the bowl...


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Standard ammo is a dose of gunpowder plus a lead ball. Paper cartridges are both of those combined with some alchemical paper. I don't think it's reasonable to craft our own gunpowder or paper cartridges. Could drop a powder horn containing 10 doses of gunpowder in to get another one though. Is that alright? If we can we rule a lead bar that can be crafted into 10 lead balls with some amount of effort overnight (with a gunsmith kit and the gunsmithing feat, both of which Jenya has)then we go up to 10 ammo per day with two uses of the bowl, and dropping a paper cartridge in will get 11. If we're doing well with ammo then we could decide to use it for 3 paper cartridges instead. Should that be enough to keep us self sufficient?


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

The bowl simply can't duplicate an item the size of a horn, just small items. Now it could be half filled with powder and then duplicate the powder say for a total of 5 doses of powder. Paper would take up less room, but I think you get the idea.


Male Dwarf Ancestral Steward (Fighter) 2; 17/21 HP; +4 Init, +6 Percpt; AC 19, Touch 12, FF 17; +5 Fort, +2 Ref, +1 Will

Here is a list of items I'd like to request for Ergas. Total is 968 GP 2SP.

Master Work Dwarven War-axe (330GP 8 LB)
Master Work Agile Breastplate (550GP 25LB)
Climber’s Kit (80 GP 5LB)
Block and Tackle (5 GP 5LB)
Crowbar (2 GP 5LB)
Drill (5SP 1LB)
Iron Spikes x4 (5CP 1LB ea)
Hammer (5SP 2LB)

Let me know if this list is ok. If master work quality goods aren't available I'll rethink them, so let me know. Thanks :)


Male Symbiont (Human) Cleric (Ancestral Priest) 5; HP 30/30; +0 Init; +7 Perception; AC 18 (Flat 18, Touch 10); Fort +6, Ref +1, Will +8

Question: If we are replacing armor/weapons on our list of 1000g of items, will someone take our current weapons/armor back at some sort of profit to us, or will we just have to cut our losses with the old stuff?


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Alright just to be certain the bowl can duplicate five doses of powder

How many bullets can it duplicate and how many paper cartridges?


Male Symbiont (Human) Cleric (Ancestral Priest) 5; HP 30/30; +0 Init; +7 Perception; AC 18 (Flat 18, Touch 10); Fort +6, Ref +1, Will +8

My tentative list:

Masterwork Breastplate - 350g
Masterwork Morningstar - 308g
Masterwork Heavy Steel Shield - 170g
Flint and Steel - 1g
Compass - 10g

Total: - 739g


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Hah my weight restriction is really biting me now. Still fun to play some inventory tetris.

masterwork backpack 50 gp

masterwork hide shirt 155gp

masterwork pistol 300gp


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Items can be sold back for 3/4 value or used as the base for masterwork items for full value.

The bowl can duplicate a single lead ball 3/ day and 3 paper cartridges 3 / day (9 total).


Male Dwarf Ancestral Steward (Fighter) 2; 17/21 HP; +4 Init, +6 Percpt; AC 19, Touch 12, FF 17; +5 Fort, +2 Ref, +1 Will

Sold of my Scale Mail and added 37.5 GP to my wealth. Holding onto my normal Waraxe for a backup weapon.

I also added my new gear and adjusted my stats for the new armor and weapon. Ergas is ready for the next encounter :)


Female Human Obsidian Walker (Ranger) 5

Masterwork Studded leather 175g
Masterwork Bayonet 125g
2 fuse grenades 200
2 Iron pellet grenades 100
1 Adamantine pellet grenate 150

Do we have a day before we go? Will spend the 300 and use the day to restore and upgrade Musket to masterwork.


Male Dwarf Ancestral Steward (Fighter) 2; 17/21 HP; +4 Init, +6 Percpt; AC 19, Touch 12, FF 17; +5 Fort, +2 Ref, +1 Will

Restoring some hp would be good for me. If the elders are okay with it, Id like to rest a night too.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Jenya will need a day to upgrade to masterwork pistol as well. Selling her existing leather armor will get her 7.5 gold back for her stash.

And 9 paper cartridges per day is a pretty good deal I think.

Jenya's right at her weight limit BTW. Hopefully she'll have enough money to get Mithral stuff. Though who knows what will happen outside the dome.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Yes, a day to prepare and rest is fine.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Haven't been able to update my official character sheet (just haven't had the time to even fire up my computer to get to the spreadsheet I use) but have done so on the profile page. Nothing too crazy anyway, +1 to the weapon and +1 to AC. Really really wanted to get a masterwork buckler but Jenya is weak like kitten :)

Anyway I think I'm ready.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Everything looks good. The next encounter has been posted. I'll work up a map, but first I need a rough idea of how lanterns / lights are positioned / held. Several PCs have darkvision so rather than do different maps I'll just provide 'light' overlays to show who can see what.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Whoah, completely forgot about light. Can Jenya add a waterproof bullseye lantern and ten pints of oil to her shopping list? Will put her comfortably into Medium Encumbrance but she'll drop both the lantern and the oil as a swift action if she needs to so they can still provide light and get back to Light encumbrance if needed.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Sure.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Hey all. Heads up, my other PbP campaign is on pause and unable to continue. I offered the PCs a chance to join us and one of them has agreed. Just wanted to give you all a heads up.

More the merrier.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

You all OK? Hasn't been any posting since the first elemental was killed.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

I'm good.


Female Human Obsidian Walker (Ranger) 5

Yeah I'm good, didn't have a target. Sorry for the stall

sup all, the name is Aak, crusader cleric. Built to take "some" damaage and dish out a little along the way. More support/ wannabe front liner.

Hope to have fun with all of you and thanx to Lareg who found a way to bring me over from his other campaign.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Welcome to our slow and steady campaign Aak :)


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Here's an idea for the setting Lareg, everybody from the dome sounds kind of like dwarves for the simple reason that underground caverns echo and so low, gruff tones are better to communicate and keep the reverb down.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Glad to have you here Aak. Good idea Jenya. Seeing that the population of the dome is split between dwarf and human, it's likely the two rubbed off on one another.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Hitting the road tomorrow, but should have internet access. If I hit snags I'll be back online by Sunday for sure.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Just holding on posts for this round of actions.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Hey all. Just wanted to touch base. Seems like the activity has slowed down big time.

With a busy fall coming up I really need to know if people are still interested in participating in the game. Happy to keep running it, but if folks aren't able to post consistently it just isn't worth my time.

Please post here one way or another. No offense taken either way. I'll update with a post next week concerning the status of the game. For now, I'll keep checking in.


Female Human Obsidian Gunner Lev 5 | HP 51/51HP | AC 18 (FF 13 Touch 15) | Init+6 | Saves (Fort+5,Reflex+8,Will+4) | Grit 3/3 | Per +11

Yeah it's really slow. Let me know if we're continuing.

What she said. I am good either way


Male Symbiont (Human) Cleric (Ancestral Priest) 5; HP 30/30; +0 Init; +7 Perception; AC 18 (Flat 18, Touch 10); Fort +6, Ref +1, Will +8

I'd like to keep up. I've gotten to a point where I can post multiple times per day now, but waiting on turns for people since we're in combat.


Male Half-Orc Monk 9 / Puppetmaster 2

Three is enough as far as I'm concerned. I'll give the others a chance to check in, but we'll head forward either way. Thanks for chiming in all.


Female Human Obsidian Walker (Ranger) 5

Sorry been a busy week, I'm good to keep going.
