Gelik and Jask hadn't a +4 to the saves thanks to Dragolan heal check?
If 20 wasn't enough we are in deep guano.

Or the damage you have put in your post if for the day before we tried to cure them?

We have recovered some characteristic damage while sleeping?


Dragolan's heal check did help both the sick patients. In fact, both made their saves for this day.

Unfortunately, the disease they suffer from requires more than a single save to cure, and the daily STR damage is signficant, especially for the gnome who has a low stat to begin with.

Yes you would've recovered HP, non-lethal damage, and ability score while sleeping.

I'm going to be camping this weekend, and off the grid. I'll be back Monday, though.

Have fun. Watch for ticks and mosquitoes this time of year. You don't want Red Ache when you return, trust me.


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

Only a few mosquitoes, but a lot of flies and gnats. Luckily, the rain held off until after we'd packed up and were on the road.

I've been swamped at work since getting back; I should be able to get something up tomorrow.


It seems to me that Okhosa is gone. He was spotty before, but hasn't been seen in a while. This takes the group down to three.

Considering either combining with Group B, which has also had some attrition or just dropping the game altogether. My frustration with the inconstancy of players is starting to show.

Have a preference to try to merge or would you rather just face the inevitable and turn the lights out now?


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

I see that Okhosa's player hasn't posted in any campaigns for close to a month, nor has he posted under his main alias. Who's still active in Group B?


Unfortunately, the needs don't match up well.

They have remaining:
St John Smythe - Fighter
Harbek - Fighter
Felix - Bard Archaeologist
Celine - Cleric

Nearly the same make up as what you'd be transferring over ( a melee, a bard, and a divine caster). Their wizard flew the coop early on.

Not sure if anyone would be interested in retraining to stay in the game, but you see what their needs are: a rogue type and an arcane caster.


It's been rough for sure, never really picked back up the same way after we lost our 5th.
With two fighters already, I think I'm probably going to step out if Dragolan or Mikail want to rebuild. Hopefully I can catch another game with one of you when we have better luck.

Dammit, I like Mikail.
On the other hand I know the player running Celine and continuing with 3 characters will be problematic.

Regular or unchained rogue?
What options as arcane spellcaster? An archanist is acceptable?

3 out of 3 online champaign where I have played have come to a skreeking alt. I am the one jinxing them?

No, you're not--I am. Dragolan was created for a PbP Serpent's Skull game *almost five years ago*. The GM for that one disappeared after picking players and setting up the gameplay and discussion threads. I proposed Dragolan for another SS game in June, 2011, and got into that one. It lasted until October, when the GM didn't have the time to continue. I proposed him for yet another SS game in September, 2012, and got into that one. The GM for that one disappeared the following June.

Hey, maybe you're right--mine all involve the GM falling out of touch, and DoctorEvil is still here. It's not my fault this time!

More seriously, I think that Mikail and Felix are far enough apart in execution that they shouldn't overlap much--remember that archaeobards have luck in place of inspiring performances, and IIRC Felix isn't pushing the scholarly aspects of the class. An archaeobard also makes for an adequate rogue substitute, at least wrt the breaking & entering stuff.


It's true - a somewhat rebuilt Mikail might work because you don't both have a lot of the abilities that wouldn't stack. Maybe just invest in disable device and more stealthy things - but that might not fit the character I suppose.


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

I think Felix would make a better breaking & entering specialist--archaeobards get +1/2 per level to Perception and Disable Device checks, and even though they don't get to disarm magical traps until 6th level (compared to archivists' getting it at 2nd level) those bonuses help a lot.

DM DoctorEvil, you have asked to the other group what they think and want?
Until they have a consensus on that this discussion is extremely theoretical.


I have not discussed it with the other group but will. Is Mikail the only player interested in crossing over?


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

I'd be interested, though depending on things I may rebuild Dragolan as an arcane spellcaster...maybe a Celestial bloodline sorcerer, as that would also not be popular in Cheliax.


Looks like the Group B folks are up for any takers. Their Discussion thread is here.. Please say hello over there and we'll move forward together. You may want to read through their thread as they've had some different luck with NPC's and are exploring in another direction at present.

I will be closing this thread soon enough. Varya, thanks for playing. You are welcome to join Group B, but I understand if you don't want. Hope to see you around the boards sometime.

Thanks, a pity it has not owrked.
See you Varya


I had fun, good luck everyone!


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

Varya, I'm having trouble making Dragolan gel as a sorcerer. Before I try to set up a new character, I thought I'd give you the option (particularly since I'm in a few more online games than you are). Let me know.

Varya's probably a bit too difficult backstory wise to switch to an arcane caster or rogue, so I'd be ending up making a whole new character as well. I don't have any ideas stored up for that right now, so it's all yours unless you need to drop the campaign completely.


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

Thanks--I have a possibly-workable idea to run with. See you elsewhere on the boards!

DoctorEvil, how we will join the other group?

- different wreckship, the others member of our party have been killed by disease and their equipment destroyed by a storm?

- same wreckship, simply we weren't mentioned so far in their story?

- something different?


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I have an idea, never you mind...


HP 10/10, 0 NL, AC Chelaxian Human ***INACTIVE*** Life Oracle/1

And why am I not surprised to hear someone who goes by "DM DoctorEvil" say something like that?
