Blood Under Absalom -- A Multitable PbP special (GM Hmm's table) (Inactive)

Game Master Hmm

Good to hear you had a good time.

Race for the Runecarved Key will be next January's special. Shifty is already planning for it.

Hmm

I am looking forward to see the pictures of you as Sheila Heidmarch. Have fun today!

I think Mort in this fight will mostly just be a walking demoralizer and flank buddy/meat shield. I think with the -7 armor penalty I can end up with a massive -1 to hit after Study, so +1 if flanking. Luckily it doesn't hurt my intimidate checks :)

Just hold out as much as you can, meat shi- erm, Mort. :P

I figured you wouldn't mind a human shield Miss snake face.

I did link a picture...sssssooo, i'm much less snake than you'd think. ;)

Here, as reminder.

Ya I guess I forgot, I just keep seeing that avatar!

^^ it was this one, or an ugly gorgon.

Choice was easily made.

Ya I don't expect there are a ton of nagaji options to choose from. Guess that's one of the reasons I usually stick to humans. And and I like more feats and skill points :)

My nagaji bloodrager uses this avatar.

(and I see I need to update him for online play, have mostly played him offline)

I have a character idea who is masked. There are few good masked avatars that hide enough facial features I can get a decent-looking one.

Mort, it's more that there are so little options for female nagaji.

Its looking like the meat on my meat shield is being quickly tenderized! Eek!

I take it I can't use my nets for this "fight", right?

You are looking good!

So... update. Cassie's portfolio is not getting reviewed until tomorrow so we're stuck in Chicago until tomorrow morning. We'll be on the road all day tomorrow. I have to say that I love the opera, everyone! You too, GM G!

Hmm

Have a good trip back!

I take it I can't use my nets for this "fight", right?

Right, you are not allowed to bring your own weapons on stage. A net is a weapon, and therefore not allowed.

Hey guys, it'll be a long day at work today and then I've got some stuff planned once I get home. Feel free to bot Corona as needed and I'll catch up later tonight or tomorrow morning :)

Sorry for the delay. My evening turned out differently than I expected. GM posting will resume tomorrow morning (GMT)

I went fishing so my posts were later than usual. I'll also be out of town from Thursday till Sunday... doing you know what.

I have returned back, though Wednesdays are usually nuts for me. How do you want to transfer this back, GM G? I could post on my lunch hour, three and a half hours from now. Or I can pick it up late tonight. Which would you prefer for smoothness?

Hmm

Hmm, you can take over. I have no time to put together a substantial post until late this night (GMT). I really enjoyed this game, thanks!

Now I am off to run labyrinth off the hungry ghosts at our local gameday

Thanks for filling in G! Appreciate it for sure.

I will take over then! Thank you so much for filling in GM G!

Have a great time running Labyrinth of Hungry Ghosts! I will try to pop in around lunch time to move you all forward!

Hmm

Welcome back Hmm! Thanks for stepping in GM G! Thanks for the bots yesterday/today everyone! I'm off work today so I should hopefully be able to post for myself the next time Corona's turn rolls around :)

Excellent, because you're up now!

Muahahahahaha!

I'm back, and we're at the opera!

La la la la ...LAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Have a lot of fun guys! You are a great team and it was a pleasure to GM for you.

I had a great time with Labyrinth of the Hungry Ghosts this evening, my players just managed to get out with a complete victory, but it all hung on a few dice rolls. A tense game that everyone enjoyed, what more can you wish for?

Ok I'm out of town till Sunday afternoon. Good luck with those dice rolls peoples.

Have a lovely time, Mort. We'll bot you as needed, but this fight may end soon.

Magabeus, I love Labyrinth of Hungry Ghosts. Calisro is my all time favorite Venture Captain, and her adventures so far have been a uniform delight.

*shuffles down theater aisle balancing large box of popcorn*

"Did I miss anything? Attendants at the concession stand had to have been under a slow spell."

*sits down, proceeds to eat popcorn*

No, you've missed nothing. We're just winging it!

The stuff we've done while in holding pattern has been utterly amusing to me! We're such a ridiculous group, and I love you all for it!

By the way, here I am dressed as Sheila Heidmarch before we GMed Race for the Runecarved Key!

Everyone loved my cosplay. We even had a Replica of the Key made by one of our crafty members. It was a great time!

Hmm

Great costume!

So apologies for missing a cue. Shifty said that he was waiting a day to let late tables finish something, so my timing was off this time!

50 lashes with a wet gluten free noodle. (If you've ever eat one then I'm sure you know that it'd never make it past the first, if that.)

Mort: Rice noodles are not bad in asian dishes, and I've enjoyed spaguetti squash. I cannot stand the stuff that pretends to be wheat, though!

To answer Sophia's comment: You guys got lucky. This thing wiped the floor with my table when I played it. You won initiative, you overcame its spell resistance and you all got to attack before it got to act. I also rolled terribly on its will save!

Some of the other tables are having a horrible time, and one character at another table has died (though not permanently, I hear.)

The only thing that helps is that this creature is not out to kill. It has no problem dealing lethal damage, but it just wants to knock you out and imprison you.

Hmm

Yeah, I figured deny its actions ASAP would be best. Combat Reflexes in an enclosed space like that is no fun.

If not permanently dead, i reckon higher tier.

Ya lots of luck going our way the last couple fights now. He made me pretty nervous.

As is a recurring theme, I made Sheela using 15 point buy. PFS is 20 point buy. I've updated her stats accordingly.

You know, just in case you're wondering why her strength is average now.

All those long nights boosted up them muscles!

Woohoo Sheela! ;)

Considering our current combat, this seemed apropos :3

(Also I love They Might Be Giants but this might be the weirdest music video I've ever seen.)

That is a pretty screwed up video, damn cheap to make at least for them.

Please excuse the unannounced visit to your table, GM Hmm.

Just wanted to let you know I had Princess Tiffany make a flavor-only cameo appearance in my gameplay thread here. :)

That is delightful! Thank you for sharing! I am happy that one of my team members earned a cameo in your thread!

Hmm

So am I! Love it.
