plot, plunder and post!

Woot!
Making a dot and getting ready. Unless otherwise stated, Uriel is waiting for some clue to "jump in" at the moment. I am assuming there is more set up to come before I start posting his actions or whether or not he is there.

Hey guys, all this plague and horror stuff is creepy. Lets blow this joint and go to the River Kingdoms. /player revolt. :P

Ride's here, gotta go to work. :(

I'll post first thing in the morning when I get home at 0600...

Sorry. :(

ah, no player revolt! bad Uriel! :P

Making a dot.

I have tried to move the plot along and dotting as well.

it might have a slow start, but its all for the set up of the mystery part

ulgulanoth what has the weather for the last few days my character has experienced?

mainly sunny, although there has been light rain once or twice

Sorry for not posting yet, but every time I've tried to enter in my information I've gotten distracted, Gone back to studying for an hour or two, and had my profile time out :P However, hopefully it will work after this time.

Eldrad, I see you are a half-elf with 3 levels of Orc. ;) lol I saw that and couldn't help myself.

Yeah, its supposed to be Oracle. I really don't know how I missed that, fixing it now.

Eldrad wow that is a lot of gear. Also multiple saddlebags do not let you carry more. Couldn't you get a cart with all that money you spent on saddlebags?

Oh. Um, yeah, I very well could >.>

Yay favored enemy human giving me a +2 bonus on survival checks. How to explain I get scent with my character with my eidolon out though is another story.

Simple answer: Magic.

That being said, I really probably won't be posting much for the next few days with finals going on, and me feeling slightly sick right now.

It is a dark night so that makes tracking harder and it has rained some.

Uriel is also a ranger and he has darkvision. However, he is only +5 tracking as is Bugler (who has scent also).

well its not all doom and gloom, the tracking DC will be hard but not in the 30s, more like low 20s... so doable with a good roll

Also, most of us can assist the others. Also I'll call my Animal companiopn/Mount to about where we are, but keep him out of the sight of the villagers so as to not have them go "OMFG SNAAAAAKE XO"

If they would react that way to a snake, I wonder what they would say upon seeing my (small) serpentine eidolon with a human face, fangs, and arms (with hands.) :P

And here I thought having an 1800 lb boar was going to be an issue.

Having Hogzilla in the party is pure awesome.

Damn, really should have just gone for it there :P Ian you had better not mess up.

I see that I have a ton of ranks in swim for Blade. Not sure why, doesn't make much sense. Would it be okay if I split that out into a couple different skills?

Also, on the way there, could I/we tell anything about the victims by there tracks? And about how many people's tracks could we find?

Also my eidolon sort of looks like chewbacca or bigfoot.

Kulthar, yea you can split the skill ranks if it makes more sense to you
Eldrad, yes, roll another survival check to see what you can learn from the tracks

With any luck, I will be back to 2nd shift tonight (1530 to 23330) and then not work again til Monday when I will be back to first shift (0720 to 1600) and be able to post more regularly.

How big is the cave opening? Will Blade be able to fit?

just about

AM I correctly understanding the map if I interpret it to mean that each character space is five feet and that the "critter" is huge sized and takes up a 15 ft by 15 ft space? Is the water considered difficult terrain? Or can I even tell about the water? Sometimes, clear cave water can be much deeper than it looks...But, the boy should give some reference.

yes each [o] is five feet by five feet, the creature is huge
the water is considered difficult terrain, it looks deep though the boy is being held above the water

@ ulgulanoth
Thanks for the clarifications. Are we waiting on the fish-thingie to act or has it already acted in this round or is this a surprise round where it doesn't act?

Sorry for so many questions...

I think we are waiting for the fish thing to go.

ah sorry, yes the fish thing has already had its action

Are there any plants in the water?

Are there any plants in the water?

Obvious spell is obvious.

I have other plans to make sure the boy gets free.

no, there are no plants in the water

Sorry for doing this in-game, but I no longer am employed, and have several other pressing issues in my life right now. I will have to drop this game. The best of luck to all of you.

i'm sorry to hear that, hope you're alright

Sorry to hear that, Ace.

Hey everyone, been reading over this and am really intrigued by the concept. If any player slots open up, I'd love to join in. I can commit regularly (feel free to check up on my other two pbps on here to verify reliability).

Just in case:

Medium/Low:
6d10 ⇒ (9, 10, 6, 7, 5, 4) = 41; 6d3 ⇒ (1, 2, 3, 2, 2, 2) = 12

So...
Summoner 1, Magus 1, Alchemist 1, Inquisitor 1, Rogue 1, Monk 1/Sorcerer 1, Wizard 4, Witch 1

That is nutty and sort of awesome. I take it that the BAB is fractional (Medium BAB as if a 6th level character, not BAB +2, as per Wizard 4?)

Even if I don't get to play, I'm going to build this character over the next day just for fun. I've got a concept in mind for a sort of traveling mystic and jack-of-all-trades.

Only core races, or are Bestiary 1 or 2 races allowed (If not, I'll go Elf)? (again, even if only for theory)

Last question: would the old 3.5 Carmendine Monk feat be allowed (Int-based Monk) to help prevent MAD?

Carmendine Monk feat

Sorry about this guys, but I just got a new job and it will put a big cramp in my gaming. I'm going to have to leave this PbP. Thanks for the great time and interesting concept.

Kulthar

I'm sorry to see ya go Kulthar

W Canepa, sure, there is now a space open, as for the feat, it looks balanced enough, sure...

Thank you kindly. I'll have something up by tomorrow night, if that's cool.

Is it okay to play a tiefling from the Bestiary?

Also, how would the Scrollmaster archetype, from page 89 of Ultimate Magic interact with the Monk's unarmored AC bonus? Could Scroll Shield be used if the character is unarmored and still retain the monk's AC bonus, or would it "be" a shield for the purposes of the monk's AC?
