GM Twigs' Rise of the Runelords (Inactive)
Game Master Twigs

Good catch, Zavac. Thanks!

As for PC deaths, we'll roll with them as they come. If a player is set on replacing his character, that would be fine, but it shouldn't be too hard to have them ressurected too (hopefully we can integrate it into the plot, somehow.)

Not a problem. ^.^

As for replacing, I wouldn't mind trying a Bard out....then again, I'm kind of really liking playing Zavac...he's a bit of a douche, but that leaves a lot of character growth.

Alas, bed is calling. I'll post Zavac's actions when I wake up.

Twigs, here. I can personally attest to douchy elves being the most fun to play.

I got impatient and took Qualin's action for him HERE.

I'm probably breaking a few rules here, so call me out if you dont want to see this happen again.

Anyway, it's pretty much free game again for everyone save Rohan. Go git em!

Sorry about that, got caught up at school straightening out conflicting classes and didn't get to check my games.

It seems I was a bit hasty. Sorry about that! I'll try not to pull anything like that again, or at least let 48 hours pass. Feel free to revise your action, and you're up now so post whenever you have the time.

...ya know, for someone who plays a life oracle IRL, I keep forgetting about bless...not that it really mattered this turn, but still.

I think I should go and complain to the author of the cleric guide on the boards that the luck domain power doesn't work as advertised :D

Well to be fair, the paizo dice roller hates me in general. It seems to think its funny that my odds of hitting are lower the more rolls I get. On the bright side, I think I hit once.

How are you making that many rolls? That's pretty awesome at level 1. Now if only the die roller was on your side... :P

This is my Luck domain power. The target only gets to use the best of two rolls though.

It threw me too, but I figured it out eventually. >.<

Akrem, if I'm not mistaken you havent acted this round.

D'oh! I also missed a knowledge check on your part. The wounded woman is Shayliss Vinder.

Assuming this is still round 2, then I shot and misses horribly.

By my reading you acted in round 1 of this second encounter with the header "round 2". You get another shot! :)

Surprise round: Didnt get to act.
Round 1: Critted a goblin (posted Jan 8th)
Round 2: Missed a goblin (Jan 9th)

If you want me to take an extra turn though, I'll be more than glad to. :P

You misunderstand, I'm using a different round order for this encounter.

Thus you missed the surprise round, acted in round 1 of the first encounter (ending the fight) and in round 1 of the second encounter. Tallying up the actions you're one short. :)

Go ahead and take it!

Just giving a heads up that I'll be fairly scarce for next week. There's a problem with my internet, so I can only post from work or from various cafes. On Thursday, I'll be leaving to visit friends and family in the States, which means I'll be totally out of commission for a day as I fly over, but after the 20th, I should have fairly reliable internet access again.

We aren't waiting on me to go, right?

*posting this on all my PbP's*

I'm sorry for my being absent. The internet at my house has been out, and I only have a short time to get on while at the university. I'll do my best to keep up, but until it gets fixed, I'll be kinda SOL.

I think we're waiting for Valeria, and now that I'm looking I believe one of my goblins should be acting too! d'oh! I'd meant to move on yesterday with the new map, but I've yet to throw something up. We'll start round 1 soon on the hour, folks!

Back at home for 3 weeks now. I tell yeah, 3 days in transit an ORDEAL.

I'm about to have a week off, so I'll be posting properly from then on.

I'm guessing Valeria has been delayed again? I'll NPC Zavac through his absence. I'm hoping this combat isnt getting too tiresome. I was worried how three back to back encounters would pan out in this format, but decided to just run with it and see how things developed.

I'll try to make a point of acting more promptly. Thats twice, now, that I've missed my own monsters turns. D'oh.

In other news, I'm 19! I'm hoping to snag a copy of the bestiary from the local game shop for my present! :P

Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday!...now I feel old...

Thanks, folks!

I'm going away with my girlfriend for the weekend (not ENTIRELY against my will...) and I'm not certain whether I'll have reliable internet access from my phone. I have, on the other hand, managed to get the PDF on, so I shouldn't have any trouble posting that way in future. :)

Also some of you will be pleased to here I FINALLY got into my backcatalogue of old CRPGs! Snared in by Baldur's Gate of all things. I'm not having much luck surviving as anything but a fighter, though.

Happy birthday! Hope you get the Bestiary with you for the weekend, to aid you in roleplaying a Satyr and a Nymph ;)

Just letting you know that I am still here, and still following, just kind of busy running about. My RPing might be minimal until I go back to China on the 11th, but I will check in daily and at least try to offer SOMETHING. If nothing else, I'll be giving my actions in combat.

Good to hear, Lorghan. Valeria's been quiet for far longer, though. I'm beginning to worry.

Hi kids. Currently doped up on painkillers pretty hardcore atm (injured my arm).

I'll try and knock out a post soon (24 hours or so).

*spontaneously casts CLW on PsionicFox*

Get well!

Was the injury perhaps dropbear related?

Get well!

Just letting you folks know I ain't dead. I'll try to kick this game back into gear asap.

I'm not either, my parents Internet has just been out for a week.

And the ball's rolling again! I'll likely roll over to the following morning soon, so if you've any actions you'd like to take tonight, I'd take them as soon as possible. I apologize again for my absense, and I'm hoping everyones internet issues are resolved soon. :)

Back in China, and got internet up and running again!

Just sounding off to say I'm still here. A little busy with school and a sick kid, but I'll try and set down tonight to get a post up in the game thread. Very glad to see this continuing.

Just wanting to apologize for my absence. I am withdrawing from all my Campaigns due to a personal issue that has kept me from posting 'till now, and probably will for a while.

Thanks to everyone for the time I did have with ya'll, and good luck! To the DM, thanks for keeping my spot open so long. I appreciate it.

~Zavac

Just thought I'd check to see if Valeria's still here. It's a shame to see Zavac go, considering my posting schedule's been just as sporadic of late... Fortunately my timetable has me trapped at university for a five hour break, which are definately prime posting conditions. It'll be a blessing to not have to rely on my phone any longer. :)

As it stands, we have a solid five-man party, but I wouldn't hesitate on recruiting any more if thats the way we wanted to go.

Fine with me either way.

I'm okay with the amount of PCs we have now.

For the sake of convinience, lets assume each PC has his share of the loot, so split six ways, that's 120gp a head. If you want to make any purchases, make note of it here or in the IC thread, and make note that some shopkeepers may have discounts for you. I'm starting uni back tommorow, although its a nice short day, so I'm hoping to segway into our next roleplay encounter soon. I'm still getting a feel for when to cut from scene to scene.

For those of you offscreen at the moment, feel free to make a bid for attention! I always overestimate how quickly these things will wrap up... But I'll manage to rope you in soon, regardless, so there's no real pressure. Let me know what you think about the pacing and how I can step it up.

In other, more spoilery news... According to the paizo blog there's been a few new encounters concocted with Aldern for the upcoming anniversary addition. As somebody who likes to give his major NPCs as much screen time as he can... Christ, July can't get here soon enough... :P

This is 120 gold atop Aldern's 12 platinum?

Glad to hear about the extra spotlight time...I thought both he and Ironbriar deserved more attention. It'll be interesting to see what Mr. Jacobs comes up with.

Blargh, exposition takes a long time, but I didnt want to leave you in the lurch. Things are coming along, so my next post should be soon.

And split 6 ways it should amount to 100gp and 2pp, so 120 platinum. 5 ways that becomes 140gp, or thereabouts. Take 140gp, and we'll give Valeria an equal share if she returns.

Are we still playing, or did this one go bottom up?

Sorry to say but I'm not going to be continuing. Hopefully this continues, as it looks like everyone is having a blast, I've just got too many other obligations at the moment.

Im still willing to play, if we can get the game moving more regularly.
