Aww newts. I might know someone. I'm happy enough with Nakoma healing. Though someone with a bit of healing wouldn't count against them.
I might know a guy, real life friend whos been trying out pbps. I'll send him a message.
As for the parade armour I can put it in but it has sentimental value for him.
I do want the scroll of summon swarm.
I might know someone too, if Zan's friend doesn't work out. (Don't know him personally, but play with him in 3 other games on the boards... excellent role player, dependable posting.)
Also, I don't think we should sell anything that is unappraised or unidentified. Anyone else want to give it a go for the things I didn't get?
I can't identify magical objects, but I can try to appraise the mundane goods. Slim chances, though. Haha. I'll try aiding Zirelle.
Appraise Rolls to Aid Zirelle
Friend of Zan's has sent me a PM. He is new to pbp. Zan, do you think he'll be dependable and long-term enough to see this through? I'd tend to lean to a person with a track record of quality posting, but will give new guy a shot if you think he's got the stamina for it.
Typically, i won't allow aid rolls once the main skill is rolled for already. You can't see someone fail and then chose to aid them...But since there is little benefit to these rolls, I('ll allow it.
As I said in Gameplay, you can likely get help identifying items from Agrit, if you roleplay it right. You're going to her house for dinner anyway...Appraisal is a bit trickier.
I'll remove the unappraised and unidentified items from the list and see if that's more acceptable. Two votes will sell it.

Hello everyone. I'm interested in signing up. I've done tabletop gaming with Zan for years, and more recently on pbp. DMDE invited me to post here once I had a concept. Let me know how this sounds.
=========================================================================
A young warrior, Acacius Galla. Born in southern Lastwall as an only child to parents who became obsessed with their ancestry. Specifically, that they were descended from champions of the Shining Crusade who had settled in northern Lastwall. In a region lost 300 years ago in the first loss to the orcs and, as family legend has it, giant allies.
They pushed their son hard to become a champion, to battle the family's old enemies. Trained in passed-down tactics from the Shining Crusade, from the dwarves, from seemingly endless instructors. Between scars from the relentless training, and devotional tattoos at his own insistence, Acacius is marked over much of his body, and his soul is little different. He stands tall and was judged ready to go forth and be the champion that his parents always knew he must be.
He believes he feels the same way, as he enters Trunua with a merchant caravan. That view may soon change.
Hmm. I want the thieves tools and disguise kit, for kicks.
Also, have we looked to see if there is any personalization in the locket? If there is none on the locket or the amulet, then I am okay selling them, but if there is, then we should probably return them to the rightful owners or family of same.
Fine with selling the rest of the identified stuff under That and Such.
Just a quick note on character class. I envision Acacius as a fighter, phalanx fighter archetype looks appealing. But he can easily end up as an oracle or even paladin should the rest of ye feel a need for more healing.
Well although he's 'new' to pbp I would remimd him that Dark Heresy game I've been doing has been going on for a year and he's never been the one to hold things up.
Straight fighter is good but phalanx can work well, not a bad campaign for it.
I am game to see a character sheet for Acacius. Welcome to the game.
None of the items you found, except the hopeknife, are personalized so they are safe for selling without offending anyone. I will move the Disguise and Thieves Tools to Zirelle also.
It's one vote to sell the stuff. Is there a second?
Cheers, I'm looking forward to playing! I'll have a sheet up today. Will character creation be any different from the first page post?
Sure sell it.
Yup, in for selling it.
Welcome Decimus!
Putting in a little work for roping our new compatriot into the night time ambush!
Cheers folks!
Here is Acacius Galla, would-be champion of lost north Lastwall. If nothing is amiss, I'll post in the gameplay thread.

There are just a few issues:
1) I don't think we did set up with drawbacks. Do you mind taking off one trait and the drawback? The Defender of the Society trait is really for PFS only, but I'll let you have it, if you choose another to remove.
2) Won't be able to wield shield and pole arm until 3rd leve it appears, so guessing you have another plan until then.
3) Sling bullets are 0.2gp, not 2. Your gold should be 5.6 after gear.
The sale value of the items decided to part with is 666gp, or 166.5 per player. I have added this to the Cash Tracker tab on the Loot page. You can feel free to buy gear before you move on if you wish.
None of these are dealbreakers for me, so you can post in gameplay, and get in on the ambush at Plague House as you see fit.

1. No problem, done.
2. Yeah. I was mulling over that one. He can still wield his polearm two-handed, or go sword and board as needed. I'll build up to polearm and shield IC, he's been training.
3. Ah, I thought that was for each. I'll correct that.
Edit: I just realised that I hadn't added a favoured class bonus for level one. I'll have fighter as his favoured class. Will add in.
I'll post in gameplay shortly.
@Zirelle I used much of Zirelle's character sheet as a reference for sections for Acacius', it was quite detailed. Can reformat mine if that's a bother.
I don't mind, Acacius. I build my characters by hand (no software), so I have to keep things detailed or I'll forget everything when I have to level up. :)
Good stuff. :)
I'm considering how to advance Acacius next level. Looking at knowledge (local) to represent getting to know the area and knowledge (religion) because he is pretty devout and should know some basics.

The store has this kind of trap in stock. You can pick up a pair for the requisite 6gp. I'll subtract from your cash.

Looks like you are good to go technically as well. Good luck in the game!
Cheers DMDE!
I'm happy for Acacius to get stuck in. Talking with Kurst sounds like a good idea, but I'd be okay with going straight to the plague house.
Just posting to say that I am still reading everything... just not in on this particular conversation, so not posting in gameplay. :)
Only able to post sporadically the next few days.
@DMDE
Would Acacius have had much interaction with Katreza, or other prominent Iomedans? Or would he be too new in town/too kept at arm's reach for that?
If he has been around them, has he noticed anything strange in hindsight?
I'm considering the following feats for Acacius:
2: Power Attack
3: Dirty Fighting (can replace combat expertise as a prerequisite)
4: Dodge
5: Mobility
6: Combat Patrol
7: Whirlwind Attack
The idea having his combat tactics involve a walking area denial with loads of reach and not being bothered overmuch by enemies' attacks of opportunity.
Any thoughts?
Congratulations on leveling up to 2! We will take HP in PFS style (1/2 HD +1). You can get your new skills, feats, HP etc immediately. If you are prepared caster, you may have to wait to prepare new spells if in a stickly place (like a bear trap in a dungeon with bad guys on the way) first.
Please post your updates here so I can be sure we are on the same page.AS the action continues, I am going to assume you have leveled up already, even if not posted -- we'll figure that out together...

Sorry, I missed answering these. No, even with interaction with the local Iomedeans, you wouldn't have seen, met, or heard of Katreza. They kept him a secret. So, no nothing strange.
I am fine with your proposed feat tree. Circumstances may happen that might make some changes, but we'll see.
About the white X's, Acacius has seen them, but he has no knowledge of what they symbolize or why they are there.
Ah it's okay. I suspected that Acacius wouldn't have been allowed to see anything relevant but I thought I'd confirm that. And hurrah, levelling up! Here's Acacius at level 2:
Fighter 2 (Phalanx Soldier)
13
+9 HP (6 + 2 Con +1 Favoured Class)
==
22 HP total
+1 BAB
+1 Fort
Knowledge (Local)
Knowledge (Religion)
Bonus Feat - Dirty Fighting
You can take advantage of a distracted foe.
Benefit(s): When you attempt a combat maneuver check against a foe you are flanking, you can forgo the +2 bonus on your attack roll for flanking to instead have the combat maneuver not provoke an attack of opportunity. If you have a feat or ability that allows you to attempt the combat maneuver without provoking an attack of opportunity, you can instead increase the bonus on your attack roll for flanking to +4 for the combat maneuver check.
Special: This feat counts as having Dex 13, Int 13, Combat Expertise, and Improved Unarmed Strike for the purposes of meeting the prerequisites of the various improved combat maneuver feats, as well as feats that require those improved combat maneuver feats as prerequisites.
Stand Firm (Ex)
At 2nd level, a phalanx soldier gains a +1 bonus to CMD against bull rush, drag, overrun, and trip attempts. This bonus also applies on saves against trample attacks. The bonus increases by +1 for every four levels beyond 2nd.
This ability replaces Bravery.

Sorry for missing the last couple of days. I have been under the weather, and slept most of the last 48 hours. Feel like I should be able to give our game a bump tomorrow. Apologies!
If you're unwell, it's better to take care of yourself. The game can wait. Thanks for the update.

Agreed, we know you'll get back to the game when you can but no point pushing yourself and stretching it feeling crappy.
Advance warning: tomorrow is both of my kids' birthdays, so I might not have time to put up a post. Also, this coming Saturday is their birthday party, so I also might not have time to post. Thanks!
Enjoy!
Have a good time.
Presumably twins or just an amazing coincidence!

Coincidence! They're a year and an hour apart. Haha.
That's an amazing coincidence for sure. Congrats! and have fun!

Can add new cantrip known also. And how did you spend your skill points?
The cantrip is the "zero level" I wrote on there. I added one.
On skills... it was diplomacy, perception, spellcraft, and... um... I think appraise and bluff. It is all listed on my profile, but I think I already had linguistics and knowledge arcana, so those would be the new ones.

It's a bit easier for me if you'll list the new spells and skills in the discussion tab so I don't have to compare character sheets to find them. I'll get it this time, no worries.
Looks like 2nd rank in Diplomacy, Spellcraft and Perception and first rank in bluff and Acrobatics.
Explain to me how you have 10 skill points? 2 + Int (+2) +FC this level, but FC last level was the spell bonus right? So should be 9 skill points total? Where you over before?
I may have confused myself...

Reading is an under-utilized skill apparently.
