DM Wellards Hook Mountain Massacre

Game Master Wellard


This is the discussion thread for two campaigns:

1,451 to 1,491 of 1,491 << first < prev | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | next > last >>

Actually I did Set a disservice there and apologise if I seemed dismissive of his leaving..I will truly miss his input in both the games we were involved in and I am not replacing Marak as I feel this party has been together so long that introducing someone else would upset the mix.

I know that it will be hard to continue without a cleric but think of it as a test of your abilities.

Yup, both Marak and Set will for sure be dearly missed.

We do have two half-healers though, so hopefully we'll be good. Plus we have a bunch of loot to sell eventually so can invest in some wands and such.

As an added bonus, now Wellard will be able to enjoy the game more with his significantly increased chances of offing us.

But, um, hopefully this doesn't mean too squishy an end for our dear friend!


M Brownin (Half Pale Skin/Half Dark Skin) Healer 8/Merchant 3

On a separate note, I've begun reading the Pathfinder comics, and I must say, it's super cool to be able to read, and see those PCs going through the same trails and tribulations our PCs went through so long ago.

I mean, our guys would totally kick those guys' asses, but still, it's cool.

Oh man! Imagine a comic book of OUR PCs adventures! Holy moly I'd LOVE that!!!

Hey! Maybe that's a great idea for some enterprising artist!

Custom made comic books of an adventuring party's adventures.

If I had the artistic chops, I'd Totally start a kickstarter campaign or something for that.

How much do you think you'd be willing to pay, as an individual or a group, to see your fav PCs immortalized in a personalized comic book??


Much like Order of the Stick, I think that the party banter would be the most entertaining part.


M Brownin (Half Pale Skin/Half Dark Skin) Healer 8/Merchant 3

Well, clearly, hence most of us sticking around for closer than a decade than not. Plus, you know, the overall PbP addiction pretty much all of us suffer from to one degree or another.

What kind of $$%^&%*( racial discrimination is this? 1/2 elves always get the short end of the shtick!


Get in the back of the party where you belong, half-breed.

*Adjusts hood*


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Bill, you are a funny guy.

So, when I bet Romon would finish Xanesha, I was thinking that ya'll would unload on her first, leaving her shaky-like.

I guess me, Muchorak, and the animal friends will have to do it ourselves.


Well, the giant could get away. Slither sista ain't going nowhere.

And agreed, guy funny are you, Bill. Roman, and you, make me laugh out loud (there's got to be a quicker way of typing that! Damn it!) on regular occasions.

Plus, seriously, c'mon, Little Bear and I could take her ourselves, with a couple paws tied behind our backs.

(Little Bear made me say it!)

Giant isn't getting away either. Elf has his card marked!


All this praise is making me blush!


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

So, Bill, you effectively cast an involuntary shield other on Xanesha?

Should Romon whack you instead of her? Your AC is probably lower.

Seriously, cool tactic, but you've got to mix it up with her to make it pay.


Yes, but right now the only thing Inikai can do is attack with his morning star for 1-8 per hit. But, it will probably prove effective at provoking her to hit him.


I will be away at UK games Expo playing PFS games for the next three days..back on Monday

Hey folks. I must now make an announcement I'm finding it quite difficult to make. I'm sure some, if not all of you won't be too surprised though as it's been coming on slowly for some time now.

I'm taking an indefinite leave from PbP.

I've been playing these wonderful games online for seven or eight years now, and they have brought me an immense amount of fun, creative challenge, entertainment and inspired flights of fancy. I simply do not have the words to express my deep gratitude for each and every one of my fellow players, and most especially all the hard working GMs I have had the great pleasure and privilege to game with. Thank you all, so incredibly much.

While I still do very much enjoy these games and collaborative creative fiction, upon some deep reflection, over some time now, I feel I need to concentrate my energies in some different directions. Now is the time for it.

Ali is my most difficult PC to leave. I'm pretty sure she was my first, meaning I've been playing her for around eight years!! Hard to believe, eh? In many ways she is my favourite. I would love if she can somehow be kept at least peripherally in the game, as I would love to keep playing her if/when I do come back. But please feel free to use or do with her whatever you think fits the story best. I really will miss playing with all you guys. You're honestly some of the most talented writers I've ever been blessed to game with.

I may be back though! I just have no idea when, or if at all. I am sure I'll still skulk around and keep abreast of the game though. So please keep up the stellar writing!

I consider you all friends, and I wish you all the very best. Thanks for putting up with me all these years!

Fare thee well, my boon companions and, as the Elvish saying goes,
"Merry meet, merry part, and merry meet again!"


I don't know what to say other than that I hope your other pursuits will be rewarding and bring you happiness. Ali will be sorely missed by me and probably by others as well. She changed my view on the druid class for the better and also demonstrated that characters can have a depth beyond "Kill them and take their stuff".

Fare you well, Khaladon. I wish you the best in everything and am grateful for the time we were able to play the game together.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Khaladon, Bill said it well. I don't think I can add much more than that, but I have to try.

It has been huge fun playing with you and Ali has been the best druid ever as a killing machine and as a well drawn and interesting character.

Finally, I will be back in Toronto, probably the first two weeks of July. If you want to get together, that would be great.


This IS the internet you know ... Alegedly human Expert (IT) 5/Ninja 3/Witch 7

It's been great playing with you, and we'll miss you. Come back soon!

Liberty's Edge

Be well and take care of yourself! I'm going to miss those 'nature walks' and the entertainment that was Ali.

But also with that news allow me to add my own. Come Tuesday I will be without internet access till the 1st of July. I have to go to some military training for a few weeks where internet just doesn't really exist. So please DMPC Mucho as needed and I'll be back. :D


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Bam! Five little Indians left.

We are going to need to shift healing duties around. Naryia and Randi and Romon (Wand of CLW) will have to pick the slack. Better pick up some antitoxin too. String a couple tough fights together with some debuffs and we might be in trouble.

On the other hand our offensive capabilities remain strong.


This IS the internet you know ... Alegedly human Expert (IT) 5/Ninja 3/Witch 7

Indeed so. Actually it makes the party a little easier for Wellard to handle, I think! I am a little concerned about the healing, Esteriande isn't THAT good at channelling, and her concept reserved the Lay on Hands for herself in combat with her low Con.

On the flip side, when her minions turn up we'll be more than well enough off, with a cohort to do our crafting as well.


Well thats two off the originals gone..both will be missed and I will really miss Ali Miss cute but vicious gave the party an added boost in combat along with Lunas.

On the other hand an Evil DM grin just spread over my face..

There will be no recruitment to this thread..for the following reasons

1)5 players means I no longer have to ammend every encounter in the book

2)Treasure now becomes much more useful to you

3)It becomes more of a challenge for you..up till now you have been steamrollering opposition with the Ali/Lunas/Muchorak/Ursas combo..now it gets that bit more difficult.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

So Wellard, how will we handle Ali's and Marak's departures in-game? Do they just disappear? Will you run them until we get back to Fort Rannick?

If you like Romon can suggest that they check out one of the mining tunnels....


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

My folks are staying with me. I probably won't be posting til Mon night.


I will run Ali and Marak until I get to a point where I can remove them as painlessly as possible..don't worry it will be nicely tied in with the storyline.


Wellard,

When we first fought the lamias you said that they had a feat that allowed them to attack adjacent foes with their reach weapons, did you not? If so, what is the name of that feat? If it exists, I am considering it for another character.

Thanks,

P.S.

How much longer before blessed retirement?


I've been retiredfora week now..but very busy getting things organised on the wargames front.

I'm still waiting for Muchorak and Dabbler to respond to the current round.Map up today

The Lamia's ability to use reach weapons in close combat is a racial one.There used to be a feat in 3.5 called shorten spear(or something like that) which let you use a move action to change your grip in close combat


Congratulations on the retirement front.

My father retired in 1996 and for several years after that, I swear, he seemed to get younger. Hopefully, yours is a long and happy one.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

I'll second Bill's sentiments. I hope you enjoy the extra time with your kids. Best wishes, Wellard.


This IS the internet you know ... Alegedly human Expert (IT) 5/Ninja 3/Witch 7

Bill there is an ability the pole fighter archetype has, they can attack adjacent foes at -4.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

And they slowly get better at it. Very slowly.


On Monday, I will be going on vacation until Saturday the 19th. I am not sure about my internet access for that time. Please DMPC Inikai as needed during that time.


Ok with 4/7 characters needing to be DMPC'd now I'm not too bothered about this game for now..if Muchorak posts then I can do a revised map and We'll go from there once the party is back together.


This IS the internet you know ... Alegedly human Expert (IT) 5/Ninja 3/Witch 7

Sounds fair enough. It's the holiday season, things usually go quiet around now.


I have intermittent web access right now and posted in my other games. I will be back to regular posting on Monday. Even if I had regular access, I would still want to wait for the others ahead of me to post before Inikai does anything. A game at 11th level requires a bit more strategy than first level ones do, most of the time.


Good news: I am back from vacation.

Bad news: I am back from vacation.


I'm afraid my ISP deprived me of days worth of online time again..what is worse I'm off tomorrow on Holiday (ironically to play at Paizocon UK this weekend) and will have no internet access for a week...never fear I have not left you..but I do need to recharge my batteries.

Liberty's Edge

No worries, I'm stuck in Qatar for a while and the internet here isn't great nor my schedule. So my posts will most likely be 1-3 days apart from one another. But if I'm the hold up in any way by all means DMPC Mucho. :D


I will probably not be able to post tomorrow and possibly Thursday as well. Please DMPC as needed.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Travelling for the weekend. May not be posting til Tuesday.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Hey, Wellard! Is everything all right?
