Welcome. If you are a player in the game, please post your Character, your PFS #, and also a brief description of your character, (what other people would see), Race, Class <and Archtypes>, what scenarios you have ompleted, your Fame, Faction, and any special boons or the like you may have (and anything like that I may not have thought of).

If you have not, please build an actual avatar with a typed up character sheet for your character, and post with that. I am hoping to have everyone post 3-4 times a week min, and up to 2-3 times a day. I'll try to DM as i see the players want to play, and being a PbP, we are not restricted to a specific time frame like face to face games would be. So if everyone wants a lot of RPing, that's fine and I'll try to accomidate. If people want to rush through and get to the end, that's fine too. I am a pretty open GM, (within the confines of PFS), so if you want to try something not really in the rules, let me know out of character, and we will see. If you have questions, (especially if your a new player), feel free to ask.

A few things of note about PbP, that are a little differnet. For one, we are somewhat going to be on the honor system. That means if you say you have a Paizo shirt for a 1/game reroll, I'm not going to check your purchases or anything. Im also going to be posting information ina spoiler format to speed up the game, typically Knowledge checks. So, if you roll to low, I'm going to trust you not to read it.

One thing I would also like is for each player to establish some sort of basic action for when they are not able to post and everyone is waiting on them. Or, if they prefere, to have me or another designated player roll and act for them (excluding using any consumible gear unless it is absolutely needed). For instance, a healer might say that they just want their character to "Ready an Action to Channel Energy if someone takes significant damage", or "Aid Another to boost AC for _____".

Grundle, reporting in for duty.

PFS ID - 56335-2

I've only completed Cyphermage Dilemma and I am currently playing in the Goblinblood Dead with my other PFS character.

Male Half-Elf. Fighter 1.

Pale skinned, corded muscles, and quick footed. He has extensive scars on his entire body including his face. Shifty eyes and an untrusting look. He always carries two flails, and wears a spiked chain wrapped around his body.

Oh, one last thing, for easy of play and to speed things up, on your Character Profiles, in the Sections for Race and Class, can you please enter a format similar to this:

Race:
Race/Class - HP: #/#, - AC: #/T: #/FF: # - Perception: +# (extra senses like Low-Light Vision)

Class
F:# / R: #/ W: # - CMB: # - CMD: #, Speed: #

(filling in the numbers as pertinent to your character), so that if I roll an attack, I don't have to look up your character or say something like "If a 16 hits you, 7 damage."

Let me know if that doesn't make sense.

Thanks Grundle, that is perfect. :)

I'm, however, not seeing your Faction or Traits. I'm guessing either Scarzani or Shadow Lodge from the backstory, but could be anything really.

Also, just out of curiosity, how did you use Herolab to create the format like that? I have seen it a few times, and it is probably easier than typing it all out like I do.

Apologies DM, I had tried to find a way to link my 2 aliases, since I had created Grundle originally non-PFS, but I've updated the PFS alias' info and will use that to post.

Surprisingly...I'm going Andoran!!

I used PCGen...if you export your character sheet to TXT, then select the output option of d20/fantasy/text/csheet_ObsidianPortal.TXT, it outputs into a VERY web friendly output.

Make sure you're using the PCGen 5.17.16 (it's almost release time).

Also, as soon as I hit the post limit with this alias I will put an avatar on.

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Oh, what I mean is the ability to post as a character like you are. You don't need a picture so much, just to be able to click on the name and see the character sheet. You don't have to change anything.

Oh, I just got a boon giving me an extra trait, which I will pick before the game starts if that's ok.

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

That's perfectly fine.

Name changed a bit obviously. Updated with extra trait. Let me know if I need to do anything else.

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Im having trouble with home internet and not really sure what is going on. Im just posting this as a warning for the moment that I may need to postpone the game for a little until I can figure out what the deal is. Not quiting though.

:)

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

I still do not have internet except through my phone. Its very annoying and hopefully it will be back soon. I apologize for the delay.

It also seems that I may need to open up to some of the backup players by this point, too.

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Ok, I have internet back (oddly it vanished in a storm and now returned in an even bigger storm). Tomorrow I will throw out some invites so hopefully we can get this started.

Yay!

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Just a heads up, I have just sent out a lot of invites to the game so we can get started, and hopefully we shall have a party soon and can begin. I do want to apologize to everyone for the initial delay.

Please, feel free to discus things here, explain your characters, or just chat about the game.


I am here...I was originally assigned to Goblinblood Dead but, since I have already run that scenario, I had to decline. I was waiting to hear if someone was willing to swap out of this scenario but since we has so many no-shows I got the go ahead to slide right on in!

I have two characters...one ready to go and one who is finishing up a PbP (which should be done by the weekend.) One is a Witch and the other is an Oracle of Life. And of course I can always come up with something new if there is a greater need for another role in the party.

Woohoo! Thanks DM Beckett! And welcome Deane!

Look forward to starting this, I've had this character on the simmer for a while.

Sounds like this game is filled up, so I will double check in a few hours when I get home and post the initial dialogue and a player roster.

Grundle, reportin' as requested. I don't talk much, but prefer to let me flails fly. I hate goblins and ogres. Hate 'em.


I am working on my Character sheet at the moment. most likely going to be a Cleric but I will let you all know. Should be done in the next hour or two.

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Do you know which Faction you will be?

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Also, one small point I want to address before we begin. This scenario was one of the ones that involved the Golarin Metaplot evolving back in Season 3, and introducing the 5 newer Factions. From the point of this adventure, the Shadow Lodge has not fully reconciled witht eh Pathfinder Society, and are seen and treated like renegades, not in open conflict per se, but there is contention.

For us, we are going to go with more modern events, and assume that some of the Shadow Lodge members are actually renegades, as the Shadow Lodge, under Grandmaster Torch have rejoined the PF Society, somewhat outdating part of the scenario. That doesn't mean you will be fighting a lot of Shadow Lodge people, just I am going to change a few things to make the scenario makes sense within the context of the current setting, (and you shouldn't even notice).

Silver Crusade

Male Dwarf Cleric HP: 10/10 - AC 17/T:17/FF:16 - Perception +4 Fort +4, Reflex +1, Will +5 - CMB +1, CMD :16 - Speed 20)

I'm called Desgryn, Cleric of Sarenae.

Pathfinder ID # 58361-2

I haven't completed any campaigns as of yet, I'm working on a First Steps with another character.

Male Dwarf Cleric Level 1

Standing just above the average human's navel, Desgryn is considered tall for those of his race. Unlike his brethren, he stands completely free of the film of dirt and stone dust. His dark hair is neatly pulled back and his long beard is well-kept,he stands with a Warhammer at his belt and a Scimitar on his back.

Still working on my character sheet but I have this much

Dark Archive

And since all roles are present in the party save for an arcane caster, allow me to introduce myself.

I am Aleister Reign (PFS 6919-5), a witch who is as pretentious as his name would imply. And no, he's not happy to see you...that happens to be a scorpion in his pocket! (I'm either going to name his familiar Klaus or Sting...)

I am called Han. I quite the opposite of our he-witch in that I am very humble. I am a Tian male who happens to be a reformed thief. I fight with a sansetsukon(three section staff) and I hope to prove myself.

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

I assume that as I have not heard back still the other players are not interested, but a table of 4 is good.

Ill post the mission info and start handing out the Faction Missions around Noon. And actually get rolling.

We have a Cleric, a Witch, a Fighter, and a Rogue, which is rare in PFS, and a well rounded party. I know the Cleric is new to PFS so I will attempt to teach and explain things as we go.

Hello, My name is Betoruga.
PFS ID - #63853-1

I have completed PSS #3-23: The Goblinblood Dead. 1 xp/ 2 Fame/ 638 gp

Half-Elf Monk 1. Lantern Lodge. Blonde hair blue eyes. He definitely looks like a capable adventurer. Wearing monk robes, and armed with a quarterstaff, Siangham, shurikens, and a Sai. He stands at 7' 3/4" is well groomed. He has a quite sage-like demeanor about him.

DM Beckett,

Over in the Rise of the Goblin Guild discussion you indicated that you meant for me to participate in this (Frostfur Captives) scenario, but looking at the gameplay thread for this game it appears that you are not taking any more players.

I just want to clarify whether I am supposed to be involved in either of your two current PFS scenarios or should I just "bow out" altogether?

Sorry for the confusion...

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Yes, this is the right one. It's my fault, not you, so no worries. Sadly, I think your character's attitude would have been much funnier for the other game.

Please, introduce yourself a little and feel free to jump in.

I will need to update a bit for the faction missions, too.

"Prince Arush Imehentep greets you, fellow Pathfinders. As we are members of a body that stresses equality among its fellows, you may drop the honorific and refer to me simply as Arush...but do NOT assume any further familiarity. I am a prince in my homeland of Osirion as well as a priest of Sarenrae and, therefore, will brook no insolence regardless of our common affiliation."

Arush Imehentep (pronunced: uh-ROOSH ee-MEN-tep) is a tall, lanky (6'2, 170 lbs) male Osirian Human and cleric of Sarenrae. His appearance is fairly typical for men of his homeland: dark olive complexion, closely cropped dark black hair and dark brown eyes along with a Van D*&$ beard(He looks very much like Oded Fehr). He wears loose, billowy clothes of pale yellow and light blue along with a light purple cloak.

PFS # 62343-1
No scenarios played, no fame, member of the Osirion faction.
I'm perfectly comfortable allowing DM Beckett to run Arush when I am not available.

Silver Crusade

Male Human Alchemist (1)

Greetings, My name is Alnearius

PFS #14038-1

I have never played in the PFS but, I am excited to try it out.

Alnearius is a young man who is relativity fit he has auburn hair and blue eyes.

He is always grasping at the various vials hanging from his belt, trying to stop them from clanking around too much.

Alnearius is a: level 1 Alchemist(Herbalist), works for the Sliver Crusade.

Hullo, I'm Abrar Ajmal, often called Glade. Druid. Looking forward to starting the campaign as well :)

Guys, this is my first ever PBP. I just wanted to mention that I am having a blast so far! I am not that much of an RP'er, but with practice I hope to hold my own :D

Betoruga, no worries you're doing great so far!

Alnearius, we've started play, you might want to PM the GM and make sure you're still good, otherwise just weave yourself into the story by meeting us.

Just have a quick request from everyone.

So far, what do you all think of the game and style? Be honest. I'm not going to take it personal and kill characters, ha ha. What sorts of things do you like, not like, or want improved? Have questions about. I'm asking now, because we are nearly half way through, you have a taste for what to expect, but it is not too late to change things if you don't like something, or have suggestions.

Dark Archive

I would actually like to see a visual representation of the PCs and NPCs on the map. It's a bit difficult to visualize with coordinates with nearly 20 PCs and NPCs to keep track of...

Shadow Lodge

||CORE Rotating DM ||Fingerprints||King Xeros ||Serpent's Skull||

Ok, I will give it a shot.
