Your welcome Sheoll. I have all this nervous energy and had to direct it somewhere. Imagine a little kid being told he has to sit down when he really wants to go out and play so he is kicking his legs back and forth while bouncing in the chair and that pretty much describes how I am feeling :)
I currently haunt up state New York but I am a night owl. Its unusual for me to go to bed before 1 am.
By the way I agree with you on the general party order. In a couple of levels I will be able to pick up movement spells like Expeditious Retreat, Bladed Dash, Force Hook Charge if I can't buy or find them before that. So I can be where ever I am needed on the battle field. I am totally going to pull a Errol Flynn for the win :)

I'm all the way up in Canada--Atlantic Standard Time for me.

I'm on Australian EST, which makes me GMT+11.

@Cadell: that puts you somewhere in Europe, no?
Male Human lvl 1 Rogue
The Canary Islands actually. Technically part of spain.
Male Human (Taldan)
had to look it up it appears I am situated at GMT-5
wow we are all over the place lol
Grr, internet ate my post.
Anyway, glad to see everyone getting along so far. I'll be opening the game thread in just a few minutes.
@Sheoll: I don't mind if characters know each other well, distantly, in passing, formerly, or not at all. I just hope the group dynamic pans out is all.
And for the record, I operate at GMT -6, so yeah, heads up on that.

Going back to something Alex said yesterday in regard to positions within group, I like the idea of having a "leader" sort as we travel along. Helps to break stalemates and general fence sitting. I'm all for everyone throwing in their 2 cents ... but not in all situations and not when a decision has to be made and carried out in a timely fashion. I've seen groups fall apart on the boards from too many dissenting views and no definitive decision making.
I have a fair idea who I'd think would be good in the role, but I would also like to see how people play out their characters in game to get a feel for the one most suited as "leader".
Is there anyone particularly interested in leading our party?

@GM Aneirin: Thanks for the heads-up. :) I'm happy to go with Rowena not knowing anyone in the group and meeting them for the first time.
3 people marked this as a favorite.

OK, so in summary (and in alpha):
Alexander is GMT -4 (new york is 6:40 right now, no?)
Cadell is GMT +1
Rowena is GMT + 11
Sheoll is GMT -7
Tassira is GMT -3
and our Illustrious GM is in GMT -6
so here's a reference if anyone ever forgets.
Male Aasimar (Angelblooded) Bloodrager (Rageshaper) 2
@GM Aneirin: cool, thanks for the clarification. And I agree. I really want the group dynamic to work as well. I think if we all work towards that goal, we'll gel.
I'm cool with meeting the group for the first time too. I enjoy playing out meeting and such. Feels more...I don't know...immersive? to me.
As for a leader, I agree with Rowena. We should see how it all plays out.
That being said though...I wouldn't shy away from such a task... ;)

Yeaa!
To answer your question from earlier Shoell yes about 6:40 must have looked at the wrong spot on the chart I checked online. Thank you for the correction.
Male Aasimar (Angelblooded) Bloodrager (Rageshaper) 2
Hopefully this doesnt come off as rude...it's S h e o l l. :)
Male Aasimar (Angelblooded) Bloodrager (Rageshaper) 2
Just want to say thanks again GM Aneirin, for putting this together. As you can see, we're all excited to get into the thick of it. :)
Male Human (Taldan)
Sorry Sheoll not intentional it seems my dyslexia strikes again and no I am not kidding about that. It isn't bad and I usually can catch most mistakes before I send but it does happen.
Male Aasimar (Angelblooded) Bloodrager (Rageshaper) 2
No worries, I didn't think it was intentional. I'm just a bit ocd about names sometimes, and if I said nothing it would make me nutzo. :)
Glad to have you all on! Hopefully game turns out well!
Male Aasimar (Angelblooded) Bloodrager (Rageshaper) 2
Goodnight from me all, more posts tomorrow! :)

Good night, Sheoll and Alex.

How much would our group have discussed/talked about on the cart ride to Oleg's? Would people have disclosed some of their personal history and such?
Male Human lvl 1 Rogue
Ha I just woke up. lol. Cadell would have talked to the rest of them during the trip especially if the trip was more than a few hours long.
Male Human (Taldan)
Alexander would have wanted to get to know the group and would have shared at least some of his background not the last part that lead him to be here but pretty much everything else.
If I recall depending on the map you use and where you calculate it from the distance is between 90 to 120 miles at least from my previous experiences. The Mule and those on foot would cover about 24 miles a day. So we where likely on the road between 4 to 5 days (Using the hex travel rules from the AP would change those calculations.) unless GM Aneirin says otherwise and that isn't counting any time in Restov we might have had meeting each other and prepping for the trip.
Male Human (Taldan)
I just realized that the cart would move at a slower rate which would increase the number of days to about 6 to 7.5 days.
Male Human lvl 1 Rogue
So we have had lots of time to talk and get to know one another. And everyone has gotten used to Cadell's geldings antics.

@Cadell: I believe Rowena may have a small word with you on the matter of hitting said horse. ;)

Okay, that's the second time I've asked my question and the second time I've been ignored...
Sorry, Tassira, I've added in a response now. *Beats head into wall* I apologize, I really do!

It's okay. I'm happy to know I'm not being intentionally ignored. :)

Still, I think that roll was quite apropos for her skillset--if her father caught her trying to do carpentry, he wouldn't be happy.

Block, the mule, is a secret ninja. ;)

ninja mule! Gods. Maybe Block should be the ruler. :P

Block may be rather stubborn about it ... ;) But Alex seems to have a way with him and could possibly persuade Block to change his mind.
Male Human (Taldan)
or he is lulling me into a false sense of security before he strikes. Ninja's are sneaky like that. Quick we need a pirate to counter the ninja mule maybe a giant space hamster pirate we should talk with minsc he will know :)

Ah, Alex, you may be right! But listen to me .. Cadell's crotchety/surly horse ... he may be the secret pirate ... who knows where Cadell got the horse... The creature has an attitude on him.
Though giant, space hamster pirate would be rather cute. ;)
Male Human (Taldan)
Very true. I may need to check for peg legs on the horse to be sure :) and the giant space hamster is kinda cute.
Male Aasimar (Angelblooded) Bloodrager (Rageshaper) 2
They were both trained by Mister Ed, who is a mutant psychic from another dimension, so naturally they'll fight to impress their former master. I just hope we don't get caught in the crossfire.
Male Human (Taldan)
where is my pointy foil hat to keep out the other dimensional mutant psychic horse brain waves. You know he will erase our minds to keep the fight on the down low.
Well now everything just got weird lol :)

But Mister Ed ... can talk. That was a dead give away, right there ... that something was up with that dude. Right? ;)
Pirate Hamsters Unite! (although that looks more like a guinea pig -- ah well. haha.)
Male Human (Taldan)
A will see your pirate hamsters and raise you a vampire bunny

"..."
"...what did I just get myself into?"
Evidently, this is what we get up to when the GM doesn't move us forward in a timely fashion. XD
Male Human (Taldan)
It is a spiral of insanity instigated by Mr Ed. That is my story and I am sticky to it.
On a unrelated note I received an error message from paizo indicating they where down for maintenance. Did anyone else receiving something similar?
