Congratulations.
Awesome!
Geborah, you need to take a level in vigilante so you can make "Aunty Geb" your alias...
I had vague plans to take the Disguise Self hex with my VMC--changing appearance is a classic hag power, and I like the idea of Geborah reversing the usual paradigm of a sinister old witch disguising herself as a harmless maiden. This circlet lets me put the plan in action early--I just have to get the actual Disguise skill somehow.
GM, when you post spoilers, do you prefer that we absolutely not peek, or do you just want us to keep IC and OOC knowledge separate? I've had GMs in both camps. I've been avoiding reading the ones not specifically directed at me/my group, though I've slipped up a few times.
I'd prefer you not peek at my GM Roll spoilers, but as long as you keep IC and OOC knowledge separate, you can peek at other spoilers. If I type Secret in a spoiler, that means definitely don't look.

I also had vague plans for Taty and the disguise skill/alter egos:
Perhaps we can incorporate them going forward?
Dante will dip vigilante if you dip vigilante.
I was thinking it... Helps make good covers.. Plus it covers some rogue skills which are always handy.... Will take a look at my build and see what it might do for me
I probably won't give Geborah the Vigilante class: Losing spellcasting is just too painful. However, her VMC witch patron is Trickery, which will give her a few more subterfuge options. In the long run, she'll pick up Bluff, and in the very long run, spells from the Trickery or Deception domain.
I didn't think that the VMC witch patron granted extra spells. It doesn't say that it does, does it?
Truth: I'm not even sure what VMC actually does.. or when it kicks in
You trade feats at 3rd and every four levels after for select class features. It does exactly what it says it does. You can just Google it, I suppose. Its found under "character advancement" on the SRD.
Except in this case you don't trade out the feats - You just get the abilities for free.
i view it as free class abilities from a 3rd class.
Work being mean. I hope to get caught up tomorrow. Please bot as needed.
hey sorry for crawling under a rock for so long. I '[m back now.
I just found out my neighbourhood won't have power tomorrow, so I won't be online. Bot me as needed! Thanks!
Hey guys, a friend of mine is going through a rough patch right now, so posting may be spotty this week.
Good luck to you and your friend, GM.
No worries.
Okay, I spoke to Dante, and he's decided to drop the game. So, unless you guys want to try continuing with five people, I'll look into either inviting one of the original applicants or recruiting someone new.
I'd prefer to add a sixth, but I'm fine waiting until they can be introduced without straining the narrative--so presumably after we finish these tests.
That's why I brought it up now. I'm going to need time to pick someone up and get them started, I think.
I'm good with whatever

Hey everyone,
Sorry to jump the gun but, with the holiday weekend and all, I just wanted to say I'll be joining you and thank you to GM Phntm888 for contacting me.
I look forward to overthrowing these sanctimonious Mitran pricks and restoring the Dark Prince to his rightful place
I'm traveling please bot as needed.
Welcome!
greetings
Welcome Cain.
I'll try to post as promptly as possible so we get you in the game ASAP, Cain.
No problem, I still need to work with GM Phntm888 on how I came into Cardinal Thorn's employ.
Easy way would be.....
Already decided how I’m going to get it in - it’s just got to wait until tomorrow, when I’m not tired from driving 4 and a half hours.
Well it was a 5 sec suggestion based on what I remember, I'm surprised you actually responded with a comment.
Hiya Cain!
Hey all, the flooding in south texas got our neighborhood. I'm out of town but driving back now. Don't know the extent of the damage yet but I may be gone a bit.
Can I ask for your opinions on a familiar? Geborah's VMC grants her one at this level.
Since her Trickery patron is Alichino, I was thinking his sacred animal--a magpie--might make sense. I could use the same stats as a Raven or Thrush, maybe with the skill bonus altered to Bluff or Disguise to fit that species's superior mimicry. It's a flavorful choice with definite game advantages.
However, I'm also considering a goat, mostly because of Black Phillip in The Witch. It would be a fun choice, and an unusual one.
A viper would match Asmodeus's sacred animal, and offer some benefits, but would be rather more suspicious than a bird or goat, and I'm just not very enthused by the idea.
Any guidance?
I like bird types for scouting, I went with my current familiar choice cause it was something different. Here's a question though...Is this your final choice with a familiar or are you thinking of getting improved familiar down the line, if it isn't it doesn't really matter.. If it is I would choose the magpie or goat.
Magpie cause its different then a Raven so it could be overlooked by mages or those that know of familiars. And like you said, Goat would be interesting... and it would have to be a screaming goat... That would be a great distraction...
An adventuring party (not us) stumbles across a goat in the woods. They ignore it, they see it as odd but it is a goat. They start walking by... suddenly.. (Insert goat scream video clip)... They all turn to look at the goat again. Meanwhile our group comes up from behind getting the drop on them.... Final blow to adventuring party's ego... during the battle the goat comes in and starts chewing on one of their clothes or the spell casters component pouch... at the same time delivering a touch spell to the person.... Nobody suspects the goat of trickery till the end.
Ok after that scenario I want a goat...
For teamwork feats, how about 'Escape Route,' 'Lookout,' or 'Shake it Off'?

We just roll and take what we get, right?
which makes +5 she gains this level.

A question about Villain Points: We should have three now, right? It follows all the same rules as hero points?
Roll or take Half HD + 1. If you get less than Half HD + 1, you get Half HD + 1 instead.
Incidentally, I will be posting a couple of feats in the Campaign description, if anyone is interested. Geborah, one of these is the feat you will need to take to qualify for your Prestige Class.
EDIT: Familiar question: If you want to re-flavor a raven into a magpie, I would be okay with that. I'll look at the skill bonus and decide which one is the most flavorful and interesting.
Half HD +1 makes my roll a 4, so I instead gain 8 hp this level. Thanks.
What's the feat tree for a Death Knight? I know we'd talked about it, buts it ready yet?
Also, for the group: What's our teamwork feat to be?
Hey everybody. I actually got home from vacation on Friday and took the weekend to recuperate from a whirlwind time in Boston. Then Monday at work was catch up on all the sh....stuff that didn't get done while I was away and Monday night is my RL game. So I'm good to go now and will get a in-game post up in a little bit.
Welcome back, Cain.
Balam, the Graveknight feats are now linked on the Campaign Info tab. Please note that while you can start the chain now, you will not be able to take the third feat in the chain until the armor has been constructed.
Okay, everyone, there is a spoiler on the Campaign Info page titled "Hellbound Feats". These are feats that I am making available for the AP. They were created for this AP and are available.
Geborah, the Devil's Pact feat is the one I am allowing you to take in place of Skill Focus to qualify for the Exalted prestige class. It is listed there. The previous qualifier I applied above still applies.
