I'm in the path of Harvey (southern end of the storm, not a direct hit). If I'm incommunicado these next few days, I'm internetless. Please bot if needed.
Stay safe!
Hey guys - I'm going to China. I may be MIA for a day or two as I travel and get set up, but I will be back.
Hopefully you figure out what to do in the meantime :)
And maybe somebody can PM Karzok's player for me, to see what's up with them?
China, cool! Where you headed? I've been to Beijing and Shanghai. I'll pm Karzok's player.
Have a safe journey! And I hope Karzok is doing alright. Perhaps it is the recently renewed status of fatherhood that's claiming his every second of time and energy.

Hey all! I've arrived and mostly settled in. I don't have wi-fi at my apartment yet, but I do at work, which is where I am now.
I'm in Datong, which is not a little town, but it does seem to be out in the boonies.
Not familiar with Datong. Good luck with the work!
I PM'd Karzok and haven't heard anything.
Are people still around?
I'm sorry I was gone for a few days :( I was literally moving to a different country. Is there anything I can do to rouse interest? I promise I have stuff planned for later XD
I'm still here, just struggling with my new schedule, and also 100% not sure what's going on in-character with the Attic Whisperer, since I don't understand her, nor do the other peoples' ramblings and wanderings seem to make any semblance of sense :D
I'm very much still here!
Still here, leaving on holiday tomorrow but I should be able to post from my phone. Very much enjoying this campaign still.
Murob is also at an impasse with the attic whisperer, the thing seems relatively harmless for now, but she doesn't know how to get it what it wants. Can I buy a hint for a hero point? :D
Well,
You can try to get it to come with you,
You can look farther for the thing's parents (you've discovered that it's not one of the obvious bodies on the beach, but there's lots more places that corpses can be),
Or you can attack and destroy it!
It has several people asleep under its thrall, people who won't wake until the thing releases them or until it is destroyed.
Still here! I am crazy deluged at work at the moment, so posting might not be too frequent in the next few days. Apologies in advance!
Still here :) had a bit of a rough week, but it's finally weekend so wew! I also felt that Ehiz was the only wanting to destroy the thing straigh away, but I didn't want to stand in the way of others seeking a RP way out.
wife is in labor will be out a bit.
Wishing your wife strength and health!
The best of luck in the days to come!
Good luck, Sorala.
Yes, good luck, and congratulations!
Okay, everyone - for the accomplishment of surviving to reach First Landing and rescuing some people, go ahead and level up to level 4.
Post the gains of your level-up here in Discussion.
You can have about as much downtime as you like here now, so decide if you'd like time to rest, or craft, or do whatever.
Also, you can do things like make Gather Information checks to find out problems that the settlement faces. When you're all ready, I'd like a majority vote on what you're planning to do next, whether it be find Baldric, escort Yosiah back home, or solve one of the settlement's problems.
Also... we seem to be down to Murob, Ehiz, Yosiah and Sorala? What are your thoughts on that?
Is Mogwai gone? That's a shame, I like him a bunch
YoricksRequiem has a tendency to be gone for long periods of time, but he was in the first game I GMed, which means he's come back to the boards a few times over the course of 6 years or so.
It's been about 3 weeks since he's posted as Mogwai, but he posted on his main alias today.
Added Web and Glitterdust to Murob's spell list.
For downtime, I would like to craft some alchemical items. After that, Murob wants to help the settlement and rescue as many of the shipwreck survivors as they can.
If Karzok is not coming back, we need another heavy hitter. And I really hope that Mogwai resumes posting.

Mogwai never gone. :D
(That was also the first game I played in!)
I had no idea it had been so long since I posted as Mogwai, my memory isn't what it used to be. I'll get a post up now!
So for Fourth Level, Mogwai will take a second level of Warpriest.
In not unrelated news, I can't believe I built Mogwai in such a way that he doesn't have Knowledge Nature as a class skill. >_>
Attribute Advancement: +1 Wisdom (Total 15)
Automatic Bonus Progression: +1 Armour Attunement
BAB: +1
HP: +7 (1d8 + 1 Con + 1 Toughness)
Fort/Will: +1
Skills (+6): +1 Craft (Wood), Handle Animal, Diplomacy, Perception, Sense Motive, Survival
Special Abilities: Fervor 3/Day
Spells: +1 L0/L1 Spell Per Day.
Welcome back!
I believe that we do not get attunement boni from the automatic bonus progression.
From unchained, the following optional rules are in effect: fractional advancement, background skills, and automatic bonus progression. Characters do not gain weapon and armor attunement from automatic bonus progression.
Oh, and Murob wants to learn Arcadian in the downtime, as well.
Level four:
Attribute Advancement: +1 Dexterity (Total 17)
BAB: +1
HP: +8 (1d8 + 2 Con + 1 FCB)
Reflex: +1
Skills (+2/2 Background): +1 Profession (Sailor), Linguistics (to learn Common), Perception, Sense Motive
Spells: +1 L0/L1 Spell Per Day.
Bonus Feat: Two-Weapon Fighting
You are right, Murob. I have removed the weapons/armor portions from ABP, because I don't really like how it affects pricing, given that weapons also frequently have special abilities.
Can you post your comprehensive level's gains? I know you get 6 health and a BAB increase, and a Will save increase, but what skills did you invest in?
And actually, Yosiah - due to fractional advancement, your base saves should be something like this right now:
Fort: 3.83, Ref: 1.66, Will: 4
Which should make your total saves:
Fort +6 (3 base, 2 Con, 1 resistance), Ref +5 (1 base, 3 Dex, 1 resistance), Will +7 (4 base, 2 Wis, 1 resistance)
The reason is that you have 3 and 1/2 Fort and Will saves from Warpriest levels, and 1/3 Ref saves from Warpriest as well, and 1/3 Fort and Ref saves from Expert, and 1/2 Will saves from Expert as well.
Level up:
- 6 HP (4 from half HD +1, 1 from on, 1 from Favored Class Bonus)
- +1 Will Save
- +1 Intelligence (total 19)
- Witch class ability - can deliver touch spells through familiar
- Skillpoints: 6 (K. arcana, K. Nature, K. planes, K. religion, Perception, Spellcraft); 2 Background skill points (Craft alchemy, Appraise)
- 2x level 2 spells per day
Also, forgive me: Yosiah's base Reflex ought to be 1.33, not 1.66. Whoops!

Ack, my mistake. I'd looked at the crunch rules in Recruitment, which only mentions weapons, not the Campaign Info.
Sweet! New level! Getting caught up on my games now, should be able to post soon...
Level up:
+7 hp (5 class, 2 con)
+1 intelligence (16 total, +4 skills, +1 arcane pool)
BAB: +3 total
Fort: 3.83 total
Ref: 1.33 total

Language: Arcadian
black blade (+1 enhancement bonus; int 11; wis/cha 7; ego 5; alertness; black blade strike; telepathy; unbreakable; languages: hallit; skills: arcana +4, perception -2)
Spells per day: 1st: 1
Spells known: 1st: 2
Favored class bonus: Magus (0.25 arcane pool)
@GM Leinathan: I took a teamwork feat with Karzok. Since Karzok is no longer with us, can I retrain it?
Also, I took Hallit as the black blade's language, instead of common - it made more sense to me. Is this OK?
Sure, re-training that feat is totally fine.
Do you guys think we should recruit another full martial?
It seems that that's what we are missing, but I am honestly fine with any fleshed out character that feels 'right' within the campaign :)
Will update char later today, gotta work a few hours and thanks to a storm over Ireland we're having a completely fluke day of incredible weather out of nowhere!
Stay safe, Ehiz!
Oh, I'm nowhere close to the storm (Netherlands) so don't worry. We're getting over 22 degrees here today so it's an amazingly warm day.
+1 level cleric
+7 (+5 cleric, +1 con, +1 FCB)
+0.75 BAB (2.25 to 3)
+0.50 Fort / 0.33 Ref / 0.50 Will
+5 skill points
(+1 perception, +1 Stealth, +1 Diplomacy, +1 Profession Farmer, +1 Handle Animal)
+1 Dexterity (lvl4)
+Channel Energy (2D6)
+Spells (+3 lvl2 daily)
I'm fine with recruiting another, but it doesn't have to be a martial imo. We've got two warpriests and a magus to do the heavy lifting on that front.
I'm also fine not recruiting, to be honest. We've still got 5, which is a good number.
So, we're down with chasing after the captives then?
I think Sorala (and her player :) may be confused here. She's assuming that the parents of the attic whisperer are with those taken by the gillmen. She'll be happy to go with the others to find them somewhere else, if they know where to go.

It's certainly possible that the parents of the attic whisperer are with the gillmen, though that isn't guaranteed. You're just not sure where the parents are. All you know is that the girl who turned into the whisperer died during the storm after her parents abandoned her.
Murob assumes that the parents are with the gillmen, and in any case the gillman guide is the only solid lead they have at the moment. So she's in the "go to the gillmen" camp.
Hey guys, great RPing :)
I started up a recruitment thread recently (Sorala and Mogwai have seen it) and while I know we don't need another character, sometimes it can make the game better!
I want your input on whether any of the four real submissions might be good for this party.
1. Sulan Kator, a half-orc druid (goliath druid) 3/warrior 1. This character was shipwrecked off of another ship, and was the sole survivor of their group due to their aquatic spells. Worships Azathoth.
2. Jon Anthony, a human fighter 3/expert 1. Self-described as a Jon Wayne frontiersman, this character is an ex-mercenary who tired of working with his former company and came to Arcadia to settle down.
3. Xomec Almotil, another native Arcadian from a neighboring Northern nation. A human aegis 2/soulknife 1/warrior 1. Came down to the Southern wilderness to die after the tragic death of his husband, and happens upon the Avistani.
4. Ravnur, a human hunter 3/expert 1. Ulfen, but driven out of his home by suspicion and superstition. A Shelyn-worshiper, a warrior, and cat owner.
Feel free to either discuss here or PM me, I just want everyone's input if I'm going to let someone new in the group.
I'm inclined to say Sulan Kator is a good choice, because Peet is great. I sort of wish I'd recruited him in my Hell's Rebels game awhile back, because I'm consistently impressed by his writing.
Xomec did a lot of the legwork and asked questions, etc. which lets me know that they're invested in the game, which is also a plus.
I love Jon Anthony's John-Wayne sensibilities, and think it could be a fun contrast to all of our complex questions of morality.
Gonna wait to see what Ouachitonian comes up with before throwing in any thoughts.
Sorry, didn't have time today or yesterday to go through their posts. Also struggling with an upcoming fever, so I might be KO'd by that bastard tomorrow, but if not, I'll go through them and post my opinion/take on it.

Anyone else who uses Chrome who constantly gets logged out by the site for no apparent reason? I really wonder what is triggering that reaction from paizo.com, because I got a static IP and my browser doesn't reject cookies nor delete them after closing a session.
*grumbles*
Same here, on Chrome and getting logged out constantly.
Same. Also happening when I try to use Safari on my phone.
Yep, it seems to be a sitewide issue. I'm also having issues with my games updating, and this thread was mysteriously hidden :/
As for where we head from here, I'm good with whatever you all want to do. I'd like to hunt the cat, but I'll find justification for Sorala to go wherever the party wants to.
