Chronicles of the Silver Rose Company

Game Master Patrick Curtin

As a PC I can't but vote for max HP!

Life's been rough lately, I am updating several games I DM, will chime in when I can in the meantime please BOT me as needed.

Whoo! :)

CR 30?!? 'Whoo'? O_o

Erm,... I think you meant "AHHHHHHHH!" ;P

Not yet, never fear. But I’m not welded to CR appropriate monsters. And the planes are stuffed with all sorts of threats. And my copy of the Pathfinder Cthulhu bestiary should be in my hands relatively soon ;)

Nope! Best case scenario, we complete an amazing fight due to clever play, luck, and tenacity. Worst case, Ramuah goes down in an amazing blaze of glory! :D

Oh yeah, because the thought of THAT makes me feel SO much safer! ;P

(J/K!) ;D

<Justin> What?! the Prime worlds aren't scary enough?!? You have to go play with OUTSIDERS too?!?!</Justin> ;P

*Spins the wheel of impulsive actions*

Ooh, it's my turn! ;)

LOL!

Yeah, I claim to be 'Neutral good' too.
But if I am, it's with heavy Lawful overtones. :P

(Darn me for giving everyone a second and third chance, even when I know better!) :/

Oh! Wait! PUN time!

"NAri knows that this will turn around and BITE her? Right?' ;)

Yeah, I know, its the end of the month folks, I'm afraid that's all I got til my next months supply of wittiness arrives. :P

Lol. Well if it does come back to bite her, the vampire is in for a shock! ;)
(Literally. Energy retort is still active. :P)

ROFL!

I almost hope it does, I would love to write THAT scene up in the Wizzie Journal! ;P

Oh, the humanity! I feel the urge to write returning!

Thank you! :D

Sorry guys, been busy. Updating now :)

Lol or not..

Updating now

LOL :)

Just so y’all know. That bit was written by Monte Cook, not me :P

Hey! Imitation (and plagarism) is the sincerest form of flattery! :)

legality is another story,...... :P

What I meant is that was an original part of this module. I thought it was a bit melodramatic m’self. I have heavily amended this adventure, but that bit was all him

Heh, there's NO drama like a MELO-drama! ;)

Is good, I like it all! :D

Oh, Merle calling someone a scary cat, got to love it.

Oh, Merle calling someone a scary cat, got to love it.

Huh?!? Oh, BWAHAHAHA!

And it was funny BEFORE you pointed that out! :)

Sorry for the delay guys, University closed Friday, so of course I have shows through Wednesday! AND I'm finally getting my front room redone from LAST years (minor) flood damage, etc etc. ;P

Happy almost vacation time! :D

For the record: Karrin doesn't believe what she's saying here, but considering the company they're in Karrin isn't going to be her usual idealistic self. People with morals and ethics, from a villain's point of view, can't be reasoned or bargained with. Karrin is thinking that Mara, when she gets back and reports everything she's seen, is either going to try to kill all the members of the Silver Rose or maybe buy them off, and while she's not super interested in taking money from another evil entities to help destroy an even eviler entity, Karrin is thinking that she'd prefer to have the chance to turn down a bribe then survive an ambush.

Although technically Karrin is Chaotic Good a more apt alignment is Cunning Good.

Karrin REALLY needs to stop confusing poor Justin!

(I mean, it's really not that hard, so she doesn't get brownie points for it,...) ;P

Naw, Justin just has gotten so used to Karrin's 'Dumb act' that sometimes he forgets that it IS an act. ;P

Um,... It IS an act? Right?!? O_o

<_< >_>

Hi folks.

A bit of an apology here. I seemed to have blinked and the holiday season shot by. I am embarrassed again that I haven’t been keeping up. My only defense I can muster is that my routine is completely changed, and it is very difficult to find good time to curate my games. I used to have hours to contemplate my games, and now that time just isn’t there anymore.

I love all my games, and I am committed to trying to keep them alive. However I understand it’s frustrating as a player when the GM disappears for weeks without notice. There’s no excuse for that.

This weekend I am traveling, but I hope to at least do a bare-bones update.

Is all good Pat.
I don't know about the rest of the peeps, but my RL is just,... Topsy-Turvey recently.
(And I haven't had any 'major upheavals', other than the regular work/life malarky!) ;P

Just let us know that your OK occasionally, we'll roll the snowball downhill when your ready for it! :)

Safe Travels! :D

EDIT- Hmmm,... Maybe I should/can use this time to get a head start on yet ANOTHER chapter of a certain journal?,... ;P

Hey all, As long as your waiting for the story to continue, how about a trip down memory lane?
;P
After much delay, (both deliberate and unintentional) it is FINALLY done.

After a TOO long a delay, I give you,... The NEXT chapter in,...

Justin's Story-A Silver Rose Adventure, Chapter 5, A Night on the Town

In 2 parts! Because apparently 26 pages of spaced text is TOO much for the system to handle all at once! :)

Enjoy! (Please?) ;P

Also Patrick do you perhance have a list of all the planescape modules you have put the silver rose through (Thinking of buying one or two planescape PDfs and would like to avoid buying ones you might use in future for spoiler reasons)

You’ve gone through The Eternal Boundary (modified)
You are currently in a wildly-modified version of Dead Gods

Thanks also how hard are these modules to convert to 3.5/pathfinder?

Not too tough. About 10 of the games I run here are 3.5 or 2ed. The Creatures are already converted via the Bestiaries.

Converting the NPC's creates the most work.

How about that adventure near the start (The one with the salt mines and the goblin camp?)

Cool,... :)

That was just me

Agreed. Plus these 2nd edition modules are very bare-bones stat wise. You can swap monsters out easy. I recommend bumping the encounters a bit due to edition power creep.

<Wizard scribbles notes furiously, glancing over his shoulder at his shelf full of 1st and 2nd Ed boxes, modules, etc>
;P

Wowsers! I'm gone for ONE week! ;P

Although, to be fair, only 28 posts in a week IS slow. For us. :)

Welcome back (ALmost) all! :)

And it's getting good too!
<Aged wizard fireballs some popcorn and sits back to watch the show>
;P

Yeah I’ve managed to get this one started. I have three others stalled :/

LOL,

No problem, my LIFE is stalled monkey! :P

Ahh! We're moving again! Will catch up! SOrry guys. The freeze in texas a few weeks ago killed my plumbing. Ended up with three major leaks and having a full repipe. It's not a fun excuse, but it's all I've got.

No need for excuses. I’ve been spotty with posting. And I don’t even have plumbing to blame, just busyness. Just post when you feel comfortable. This is escalating quite a bit more than I envisioned

I hear you. I just had a relatively benign subplot explode in my wrath of the righteous game. :)

Sorry about the plumbing.

Hope everything is all water-tight once more? :)

Busyness indeed!

Hey, you know gamers in general, and this group in particular.
If there's a way to escalate the situation, we'll invent the escalator!
;)

(Yeah, that sounded way funnier in my head too. But I'm tired. I'll roll with it!) ;P

It cost me almost 10% of the purchase price of my home, and the water main connection pipe is still galvanized and needs replacement, but I'm water tight again. I also still need to fix all my damaged ceiling ngs, from roof leaks during Harvey and the three major leaks from this.

Oi vay!

Well, it could always be worse! (said Jerry Clower)

It could be 100% of the purchase price of your home! ;P

Glad you at least aren't swimming to bed at night! :)

Sorry, got the flu

No worries. I’m caught out by this becoming a full-on brawl. It’ll take me a bit to cogitate the particulars

Lately my table top PCs have either been crushing battles or avoiding them all together outkicking my coverage (i.e. what I have prepped for a given session).

Sorry, got the flu

We all of us in my family had that last week. Yes, at the same time. It really sucks. This year is a bad one. I hope you recover quickly.

Ugh, flu sucks.
It just feels so,... Blecch,...
Get better quick Mark! :)

Um,... Sorry? :)

But it does seem to be something we are good at! :)

(I do apologize if we are throwing a monkey wrench into your plans. You make the GM'ing look so easy, it is easy to forget how much work you put into it!) :D

EDIT- Heh, "Monkey Wrench', That one was NOT on purpose, I swear! ;P

Just to clarify Ramuah's actions, she'll use stand still if an enemy closes to keep them back, and avoid damaging anyone.

Hey, Karrin just wants to bury her friend, it's not like she started the fight. It's not like her new companions are helping things though ;)
