DM Maslen's Second Darkness PF Conversion
(Inactive)
Game Master
Pathfinder Maslen
The third largest city in Varisia, Riddleport is also the most notorious. It is here that the machinations of an ancient race, once again boil up out of the Darklands and into the light. The sinister plots of the subterranean underwriters manifest!

Sweet. We're already at the lodge but you can make a filler post adding you to the picture.
I bought my new dog. The ferry left at noon so we.could have gotten samson to the old guy that morning.
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
I notice Iscarel was invited to the lodge too. For simplicity's sake I don't think I'll have him take up that offer.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
Aww, after that apology?! Buddy?
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
I'll admit, I'm not certain how far it's progressed. I haven't even had a chance to read the entirety of Marcus' apology yet, let alone the Cypher Lodge spoilers. If the entire party goes, Iscarel will make his way there. Otherwise I probably have to slow my pace down for a few days anyway and wouldn't want to hold things up.

Great, I'd love to get Ascaria back into the action. ;-)
@Marcus: Btw, I think Marcus and Ascaria bringing Samson to his new master in the morning is a great roleplaying opportunity. Do you want to play that out? (I know I wanted things to move along... We could run it in parallel to the Cypher lodge stuff...)
Male Human DM/32
@Ascaria
Feel free, just keep it in a spoiler.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
Taking kids to school. Will respond to Ascaria later today

I must apologize for the game thread is terribly ugly at the moment with all the side plots separating the party. Just know I am conscious of this and will work to get it back to normal when able.

A lot of those spoilers were our doing to begin with, I had myself trying to roleplay three different interactions at once before I realised how dull I must've been making things for everyone else. Things have gotten pretty messy, but I don't think normality is far off. :P
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Hey, the Cypher Lodge stuff isn't too far along. Iscarel should fit in pretty organically.
Male Half-Elf Cleric 1 / Fighter (Cad) 1
Oops, I posted before reading the discussion thread. I'll keep the conversation with Iscarel spoilered, but I'll fix the Cypher Lodge.
Male Human DM/32
Man, I'm so learning how fast my game runs. These other two are b@#!#&%& slow. Eek.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
You mean the other games? Megan normally matches us. Think it's the new job
Male Human DM/32
Yeah, it's more of the fact that it will pick up when im back at work when im on hols now. Just my luck.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
We still need that Kick ass dude (who can do condition relief) for DM maslen's game...
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Yeah, the pace this game moves at is great. Any other PbP that's ever come close that I've played burnt out in a month or two.
Has anyone played Skull & Shackles yet? I've just subscribed for it, and bought my first pathfinder hardcopies... ever. Once my homegames start back again I'm gonna run it, but if we could find a group for it I'd be really keen.
Male Human DM/32
I just resubscribed also. Started with book 2 of Skulls n Shackles.
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
How about Ryuko? He seems particularly slow. I think we'll have to take the initiative ourselves if we want that one to pick up the pace.
Male Human Ranger 1
He posted in discussion. Maybe he's waiting for us to rp a bit first.
Male Human DM/32
It's a bit loose for my liking. I tell you, this will drive me nuts if it keeps up.
Male Human Ranger 1
Most frequent posting gms:
Meagan
DM Idyll
DM Awesome
DM Maslen
Waife
Only reason I didn't suggest.Idyll or Awesome is both games have 7 players.
Megan is quiet due to new job.
Neither of you were keep on Maslen's homebrew.
;)
I admit it is very hard to find a fast paced DM.
Just started Council of theives with Baldwin the Merciful and even I'm struggling to keep up. We are averaging 6-7 per player per day. Already at level 2 and 12pages of posts in under a week.

I knew I'd regret ducking out of that. :P

If it'd be alright by Tam, I'd like to have Iscarel eavesdrop, if not outright join the proceedings. Would Tam trust Iscarel about, or nay?
Male Human {Black American} Monk 1 / Paladin 2 / Bard 1
Right now Tam is more concerned with getting some wisdom and direct information from Ethaniel. Marcus says he can trust him ... and for Tam feels he can believe him in that. Tam can;t look every direction at once while battling a mental imp and talking in earnest so..yeah go ahead and eavesdrop.. it furthers the story.
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Excellent, I'll do that. I was ignorant of Marcus' backstory for far too long. Considering our shared history as elves, it should make a nice bridge between the two characters.
As for my own backstory... Yeesh. I'm definately lacking in that department. Do you think I need some fleshing out, Waife?

Hmmm, seems somebody in Baldwin the Merciful's VERY FAST PACED Council of thieves game just highlighted the group has 0 ability with arcane magic. And just as they're planning an ambush that could use a blaster too...
Boy, SURE would be a good time for someone to POP INTO THE RECRUITMENT thread with a Mage ready to go..

Tarvi looks up hopefully, "Magic...I...um, want to study magic."

Check kenji for inspiration. Needs leveling up to 2.
Next 1 level dip crossblooded orc/draconic for+2 damage per dice on electric spells.
Needs a COT trait. I can pm full build later. Trust me it's uber.
He's only a friendly suggestion to speed things up.
Play what u want but get in quick.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
Twigs and DM, are either of you interested in that arcane caster spot?
Male Human DM/32
I could do daily posts but it would be mostly at night EST.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
Up to you dude. Pop in if you want a look.
DM baldwin the mercifuls COT
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Can we get a link? I;ve halfway comeup with a chelish playboy diabolist type, only to worry he's too much like Iscarel...
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
Ahhh. Hold that thought. The group is 50/50
Wait till we need some utility casting to convince the others...
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Ah, all good. I've got plenty on my plate at the moment anyway. I'm hoping to start up a tabletop skull and shackles game soon. ^^
Male Human DM/32
Off subject: Damn i was really looking forward to getting Korgun into a game. Sigh!!
Male Human DM/32
Let me know in future if you wish to do an accelerated side quest (non-hostile). If you wish to do something in game but don't wish to spend time roleplaying it out, just ask OOC for a summary. I will make rolls on your behalf and let you know the results.
In PbP as you all would know, it can draw out the game if you RP everything and I don't wish to offside anyone.
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Yeah, it was becoming pretty apparent what the problem with that game was. I'm glad one of us spoke up. Have your other games taken off?
And yeah, that sounds excellent. After this trip to the cypher lodge (or perhaps in some spoilers or something now) we could get back into the meat of the action.
Male Human DM/32
mmmmmm meat!
No, none of my PC games have gone anywhere. My RL GM is going to run Carrion Crown for our live RP group so but again I don't think it will be a fast post game.
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
If I thought I could keep up this kind of pace as a GM, I'd jump back into the chair myself and give you that game. Right now I'm fairly certain I couldn't deliver, though. I booted up a game last June as well only to have it die out as soon as uni started back. I wouldn't want to repeat the experience.
Out of curiosity, though, what APs have you had a chance to play or run?

Waife, am I waiting on a post from you, or are you waiting for one from me? I assumed we could do this bit with Tippy and Bojask while the Cypherlodge thing is going on.
Male Half-Elf Wild Stalker 7
At least the crimson throne game is moving now...
Yknow we could start a request a gm thread ...kingmaker perhaps?
Male Human DM/32
Awwww nice development Tam! Muhahaha
M Human Commoner/1, Expert/1
Gah! The suspense is killing me. :P

Of what's going on behind Tippy's spoilers. :P
I just noticed your last post was directed at Tam, though. Not Tippy. So I'm marginally less worried.

Expecting to see a baby alien burst from Tam's chest any moment now... :-D

Cool as that would be.. I hope not! lol!

Tippy, can you read that last Spoiler! It's not opening for me. No idea wtf happened to it.
