Sandara is already helpful to all of you. She wants to make friends among the newbies to better withstand the cruelties of Plugg and Scourge.
I hope, someone of you is also interested in playing/DMing DnD 4. If that is the case and you have some spare time for another online game, than please participate:

For me a fair bit of slipping below the minimum has just been waiting for responses/progression. It's a little challenging to post when you've finished the day and others haven't or during combat waiting to figure out what the result of your last round was.
I think we can get back to the 1/day minimum and now that our characters have built up a bit more of a relationship maybe if we get into a situation where the day is stretching out we can interact with other PCs to get a post or two in.

Hey Ross, we're still not on the next day. I figured since you posted up to the next day's morning you were expecting us to finish this day while you were away.
Also assuming I made my check to diagnose that you have filth fever and I make my heal check, you would have a +4 bonus against the disease. We'll have to see how that all plays out.

Eric, you are right that is what I thought would happen. Oh well, I will add the bonus, but I don't remember rolling too high. Imagine how funny it would be to loose a character not to monster attacks but to the disease they left behind. It would be a first and privately I am crossing my fingers to see it happen.

I had 500 before the two fights, as long as you got back your equipment.
If I recall, there was 100 XP for completing the first day of work.
Then there was 200 XP for dealing with the cronies.
After that there was 200 XP for those who recovered their equipment.
I don't recall seeing XP for the Rats. Assuming standard rats and Kevin's character still getting XP then that should be another 135, I think.
There was 400 XP for the bout with Owlbear, which Kevin agreed to split. So another 80 XP
So with those two fights we should be at 715 or 515.
Though, you should be asking Tim this question not me. We aren't guaranteed to have all the same XP. Also remember we are on the medium track for leveling, so the next level is at 2000 xp.

Nonsense I knew that you had tracked it diligently. Though I found where Tim had put the rat battle at 160 each. Look at page four, Discussion.
I disapprove of not keeping XP even for all characters. It becomes a major headache though no where close to the pain 3.5 had XP tracking. Just my two cents.

Ah, I was expecting it to be in the gameplay thread. So we should have 740 and 540 respectively. Hopefully we'll get Valen his equipment then everything will be squared away.
When there's rewards for individuals it makes it a bit more challenging to keep XPs the same. Though it is something that can be managed.
Funny you say that, as I remember a character you were very intent on having not gain a level with the rest of the party. The system is designed to give those who are a little behind a push to get them caught up. So a slight drift isn't too bad, though if we get close to where we need to level so the level of the challenge is still fair hopefully Tim will have some leniency and let us all level when the time comes.

Pathfinder doesn't award XP the way 3.5 does. Lower levels do not get more XP for the same CR, nor is there a cap when you don't get XP for killing something far below your characters power level. That's right, when we go slaughtering dire rats a 19th level we will still get the same XP we did when we were 1st. Though we will have to kill millions of them to make 2oth, which will be good for ships everywhere.
Tim may track it differently though than the guide lines in the core.
I vaguely remember something about what your talking about Eric, probably about spending XP to get stuff, and not worrying about the cost cause the benefit was better than the level. Spending XP for stuff isn't in Pathfinder either.

I was chatting with a few people who have been around the PbP block and they were saying it takes a year or longer to get one AP module done. So figure that the fights and junk just take longer as we level Pathfinder APs are six or seven year campaigns. Truly a daunting task. I was reading one AP Megan's Curse of the Crimson Throne they are in book two and have been playing since 2010. Granted I think memembers leaving and a change of DMs held up play, but over all the posts seemed steady. I stopped reading about page 20 out of something close to 70.
I think seeing that we have had only one actual combat it would be something like about 3-4 hours of play. The day and night actions would certainly sail by at a table. Pun intended sir. Though we can't tell fo sure, if we were at a table we may sit around and talk about silly stuff.

I still like it! I especially like your creative out-of-the-box roleplaying. Makes DMing easier and a lot more fun.
Considering the length of Ondir's posts, I can't believe that he completely lost interest.
As far as I know, you guys know him personally. Maybe you want to ask him if he still likes to play?

Hey guys,
I'm back from my vacation.
Sadly, some real-world-issues force me to withdraw time from fun-activities to get back into my old job or to apply for a new one.
If I can help you to go on with the campaign in any way, please let me know via PM.
I am very sorry that I have to end all my pbp-activities at once in this way, but it helps me a lot attending my current problems.
It was a very entertaining time - thank you all.
Tim

I dunno. I suppose we could. Personally, I am not sure if its the whole PBP method or perhaps the adventure or both, but playing a warrior is kinda not fun. With no skills to contribute outside of combat, and how long it takes to get to combats, kinda leads to me doing a lot of nothing. We can obviously discuss it on here but PBP just might not be my cup of tea.
