And NOW I get a nat. 20.
Boom! :)
Just to help keep things on track and moving forward, you all have set some pretty serious wheels turning in terms of people looking for answers as to the identity of the attackers. I'll not discourage additional activity, but there are few in the city with the lore and research at their disposal as those who have been engaged already by various party members. One of the perks of some of the factions.
It will be unlikely that any additional information will fall into your lap until some time has passed which might allow some of those wheels to come to a halt and arrive at a destination which could yield results.
Another wasted roll....*sigh*
I better be careful, you might be onto my scheme to have everyone roll out all their 18's, 19's, and 20's prior to any combat so we can have an amazingly fun string of 1's, 2's, and 3's when everyone's rear is held to the fire! :)
No way, I'm saving my 20s!
Elxurian is ready to move on.
Barring any further objections, I'll give everyone a bit this morning to post before pushing forward. I think I've covered all the faction contacts and other than table talk we are ready to drive forward.
Sounds good.
@Trips: I think after Penka researches some spells she may also be interested in growing some leshys to perform mundane tasks for the group. They would be strictly non-combat, and I would flavor them as taking up residence in Tree's branches, and I would give them each distinct personalities (and maybe even separate profiles with pictures). Would you be amenable to that?
Yep, but I'd limit the number to two at most and they would be no higher than 1HD. I don't want a summoner with a throng of little plant monsters running around. :)
Other than that, we'd follow the normal process for creation.
Sounds perfect, I'll plan to create one Leaf and one Gourd leshy. It'll take time before I have enough cash for the components anyway, so it's a bit down the road. For now, she will create a few new nature-themed spells with all her downtime.
Oh, and thank you for letting me research spells, gives me a good place to keep my creative juices flowing while I wait for more freelance assignments from Paizo. :-D
I think I've asked this here already, but would you like me to put up a loot sheet guys?
I would certainly not object to it.
Pfft, forget walking. Let's all buy trained axebeaks!
$$$ :)
All right, our Loot sheet is set. You each have one column (to the right), if you wanna use it or not it's up to you. The sheet will divide the loot according to a fair share. Right now we started with 150 gp, plus 25 gp and 200 gp worth of gems, which gives each 375 gp each. If you would like me to set a special row for you to put your downtime earnings just say so. You can also track encumbrance through it, and I'll be keeping a record of the date, which you might want to use to track your crafting and other stuff like that.
Just tell me what you need and I'll adapt it.
Thanks, Elxurian! Sorry for the delay over the past couple of days--life got unexpectedly really busy! o.O
I am moving and the internet won't be in my new house for a few days....Annoying. I should be back in full swing by Weds. at the latest. Sorry guys!
No worries Quarick. I had a nightmarish weekend with work and although my posting is usually limited on the weekends, it was non-existent on this one. End of the month in the financial industry tends to do that. :)
Anyways, I will have a post up shortly, but I did want to notify everyone that I am heading to Origins this week and will be caught up with running Pathfinder Society games at the convention. My posting will be very limited, probably a post either in the mornings or late at night, perhaps both if I can swing it. I'm running a full schedule from Wednesday to Sunday, with a 4 hour drive there and back, so after tomorrow I will be fairly out of pocket till next Monday.
Just wanted to make sure everyone had a head's up!
Noted ^_^
Sorry folks, I meant to get a post up this morning, but we had to put one of our cats to sleep today and I've been a bit distracted today. I will have a post ready for you in the morning. Thanks for understanding.
Aw, sorry to hear that. Was it unexpected?
Aww... that's very difficult for anyone. I'm sorry for your loss, Trips.
This obviously isnt turning out to be my week. I've been plagued all morning by this weird error on the Paizo site that keeps saying "Too many attempts to connect" etc. and wouldn't let me on the forums. I finally rolled my system back to a restore point a few days ago and it let me on.
@Tsura - No, which was the worst part. It was business as usual on Saturday, then Sunday she was looking weak. Took her to the vet yesterday and that was it. It came on us way too quickly, which is probably why it hit us as hard as it did.
@Penka - Thanks, it is hard for us, our pets are our children, and losing one is rough.
Sorry to hear about your loss, Trips--that's a hard thing.
I have only a dog, but when I adopted him he almost died, and it would have been tough for us, even though he had been with us only for a week by then. Imagine for a long time... I wish you the best during these harsh times man.
Just wanted to let everyone know this morning that my schedule at Origins has been far more harsh than I anticipated. Been waking up at 6, getting to HQ by 7, working with the PFS players till around midnight, then getting back to the hotel and passing out. I woke up a bit earlier this morning, sleep be damned, so I had time to get this message out to all of my groups. I have free time tonight, as I'm open for our last slot, so I'll be getting an update out to my games then. Thanks for being patient! :)
This may be just me, but since your schedule sounds pretty tiring, you could perhaps use the free time to rest and relax a bit. I am sure we will still be here tomorrow.
Totally agree. Just enjoy yourself in your one open slot!
Yeah, take it easy. We can get to regular speed when things are not so demanding.
I DEMAND that you use whatever time you have to update this game even if it means you don't sleep, eat or otherwise live.
Of course not. Don't kill yourself GM Trips.
I realize that it's probably already happened, but...indeed. Take your well-earned rest!
Back in the saddle. Let's get this rolling!
Glad to have you back, Trips! Just to let you know, starting this afternoon I'll be undergoing some crazy intensive workshop training that's expected to run basically twelve hours a day, every day, for the next three weeks. I should be able to post sometimes (on breaks and so on, and at home if I'm not too exhausted), and I'll be doing my level best to keep up, but please feel free to bot me if things start to lag.
Thanks!
@Quarick - Please make sure you adjust your character profile so you have a stat block showing when you post, similar to how the other's have done theirs. I keep having to open your profile page up to check things like AC, and it slows me down a bit when I am posting. Thanks :)
@Hanz - Noted. If I need to move combat along I'll try to make a wise decision that won't get you eaten. :)
Hmmmmm. Roll20's not behaving for me--it claims I don't have an account. But I'll post something that should apply regardless.
Hey, thanks! (And thanks for the bot, Trips--of course as soon as I posted the above Paizo went down. :P)
These low numbers are killing us...
No kiddin'. I have finally rolled high enough to matter at least, or I think so. Sheesh...
Ok, so I'm entangled! Great.
Such an awe-inspiring group of adventurers we are. Damn you dice! :-P
Common guys, if no one is gonna finish this poor creature I will! Quarick, Tsura, that's yours!
The dice rolls have been pretty harsh for the party. Bad string of luck for pretty much everyone except Elxurian.
Yep, the dicebot has been seriously evil to me in all of my games for weeks.
Thanks god at least for me it's working. Otherwise we would be cat food by now...
I hope someone else's is working by the time mine stops...
Someone is stealing all our rolls!
Someone is stealing all our rolls!
I'd definitely blame Elxurian. Perhaps she should be tarred and feathered for taking all the good dice?
Considering the party's dice and her dice, I don't advise trying that at the moment, you know...
